The game was pretty low on quality, aside from a brilliant first half goal from Luke Molyneux. Gillingham, playing their first game under new boss John Coleman, dominated the first half-hour with Rovers penned into their own half for much of the time.
But completely against the run of play Molyneux opened the scoring when he dashed onto a poor header back towards his own goalkeeper by Armani Little. Molyneux got it under control and produced a classy, chipped finish over the onrushing Glenn Morris for his second goal in as many games.
Billy Sharp then produced a horror miss from a few yards out just before the break. The hosts peppered efforts towards Ted Sharman-Lowe's goal in the second half but never truly troubled him as Rovers held on for a much-needed away victory.

15. Joe Ironside 6
So good at winning free-kicks or just generally keeping the ball and allowing more runners. More than played his part in ensuring the three points. Photo: Howard Roe/AHPIX LTD
