Injuries to midfield duo Mark Byrne and Regan Charles-Cook aren’t deemed serious by manager Steve Lovell.

Byrne picked up a knock midway through the first half and his replacement Charles-Cook left the field with an injury too, after a collision with Gillingham team-mate Barry Fuller.

Both are expected to be fit for next weekend.

“They will be alright,” said Lovell. “Regan got injured by Barry Fuller. It compounds it doesn’t it when you get done by your own player!?

“But they will be fine, they will be alright for next week.”

The Gills’ starting XI was unchanged at the weekend, with midfidler Billy Bingham not involved. He’s been training for the last two weeks.

Callum Reilly was another to miss out, having been injured, but Elliott List (ill) and young keeper Tom Hadler (shoulder) were both fit enough to make the bench.

Captain Gabriel Zakuani, meanwhile, was watching from the stands. The former Peterborough favourite was in the away end among the Gills fans.

Zakuani has been out injured since February with ankle ligament damage, picked up in Gills’ home match with Barnsley.

Dropping out of the weekend squad, for List, was midfielder Darren Oldaker.
