Stimson still proud of gallant Gills

Keeper Simon Royce was out following knee and neck injuries sustained in a car crash last week. Curtis Weston and striker Fabien Brandy were also missing along with several others, meaning Stimson could only name six substitutes.[LNB]But the Gills, who are yet to win away this season, took a third-minute lead through Simeon Jackson and looked the better side for most of the first half before goals from Lee Novak and Jordan Rhodes turned the game in Huddersfield's favour[LNB]Stimson said: "I thought we were the better side for the first half hour. Their fans were getting a bit frustrated as they probably turned up expecting a 5-0 win.[LNB]"I told the players not to worry about losing by a big score. I wanted them to go out and impose themselves on Huddersfield.[LNB]"They attack from everywhere but I thought we did a good job in standing up to them despite missing the first choice spine of our side."[LNB][LNB]
