The venue for Gillingham's pre-season friendly with Croydon Athletic on Saturday July 31st has been switched to Sittingbourne FC's Bourne Park ground, kick-off 3.00pm.

Croydon are undertaking essential pitch repairs to the Keith Tuckey Stadium surface so the clubs have agreed to switch the fixture to a neutral venue.

For supporters unfamiliar with the Brickies ground, Bourne Park is part of the larger Central Park complex, Sittingbourne's former Stadium, and is located a short drive from the town centre.

Full directions to the stadium will be included in our match preview, available on the site next week.
