Time is running out for Gillingham fans to apply to be the team’s 11th man.

One lucky supporter will be chosen to join the Gills at their training ground on Tuesday for the Johnstone’s Paint Pot Challenge.

Gillingham will be the sixth team to take part in the challenge and they need a fan to join the 10 players and staff chosen from the club.

Entrants try and chip the ball from the edge of the box into a giant inflatable paint pot on the six yard line.

Points are awarded for accuracy and Barnsley are currently leading the way with an impressive 26 points.

The competition is being run in conjunction with the Johnstone’s Paint Trophy. Gills are in the area semi-finals and will face Leyton Orient at home next weekend.
