Gills keen to maintain Spurs link

Mark Stimson
Stimson is hoping to get his side back into League One this season

Gillingham boss Mark Stimson has said he is confident the relationship the club has formed with Tottenham will continue during Harry Redknapp's reign.

A number of young Spurs players have arrived at Priestfield on loan since Stimson took over, including current regulars Andy Barcham and Leigh Mills.

Stimson told BBC Radio Kent: "Knowing Harry as I do, he'll know where all his players are and what they're doing.

"I think if the boys play and progress it can only help Tottenham long-term."

He added: "I hope to build a relationship again with him [Redknapp] because I've come across him before.

"He's a great football man and if he can lend us [David] Bentley for a month and maybe [Jermaine] Jenas then we'll be ok!"
