Corr: 'Losing to Gillingham would open up an eight point gap, the last thing we want to happen'
Southend United's in-form striker Barry Corr will be looking to score for the fifth successive match against the Gills in the play-off six pointer at Roots Hall Tuesday evening. Corr: Shrimpers top scorer Barry Corr has grabbed 16 goals already this season and has found the old onion bag in his last four starts against Wycombe, Torquay, Northampton and Morecambe. So it 's not surprising the Irish born centre-forward fancies his chances in the vital clash against Gillingham under the loghts of Roots Hall Tuesday night. Corr told www.echo-news.co.uk: "It would be great to get another goal because this is such an important game for us. We need to win, especially after losing at Morecambe on Saturday, and I would sacrifice scoring again for all three points because that's what we need." Only five points seperate the sides with the Gills in seventh place, having played a couple of matches more than the Essex boys, a fact that big Baz is well aware of and what victory will mean this evening.Corr concluded: "If we win then we are two points behind Gillingham and will still have two games in hand on them. But if we lose it would open up an eight point gap which is the last thing we want to happen and that's why it's such a big game."
