Centre-back Max Ehmer concedes Gillingham’s players are letting down boss Neil Harris.  As a manager, Harris is taking the brunt of the criticism from fans, with the goal-shy Gills presently facing a second successive relegation. But Ehmer said: “I don’t think you can question the gaffer with where he’s been as a player and manager.  “Last year, with how far we were adrift, to only go down on goal difference - when there were times like Sunderland away where we conceded a last-minute goal [in a 1-0 loss]. If we kept a clean sheet there, we’d have stayed up.
