Sittingbourne boss Chris Lynch backs Roman Campbell to shine for Gillingham in Kent Senior Cup tie at Maidstone

Sittingbourne boss Chris Lynch can't wait to see how on-loan striker Roman Campbell does for Gillingham tonight.

Campbell is set to feature for Gills in their Kent Senior Cup semi-final at Maidstone.

It's a chance for the teenager to shine and Lynch hopes he does well - even if it means Bostik League Brickies face a battle to keep him for the rest of the season.

Lynch said: "I'm really hoping he plays. If he gets selected it's up to him to go and grab that challenge by the horns and show everyone what he can do.

"I know what he can do, the youth set-up at Gillingham know what he can do, and I really back him if he gets the opportunity to make the most of it.

"It'll be wonderful if he goes and gets the winner.

"If he does, I don't think we'll have him much longer!

"He's definitely a different type of player for us at this level.

"We know we're a massive threat with him in our team up front."
