Charlton striker Chris Dickson, 22, and Preston midfielder Adam Nowland, 26, have both joined for a month.

Gillingham chairman Paul Scally told his club's website: "Both of these players will enhance our squad and will prove quality additions.

"Adam knows all about Gillingham, having been here on loan before, while Dickson has super pace and is a bright young player with a good future."

Dickson, who began his career with Erith & Belvedere, also played for Dulwich Hamlet before joining the Addicks in March 2007, and has also been on loan at Crewe this season.
