Neil Harris
On form: Neil Harris scored a 10-minute hat-trick for Millwall

Lions will take it easy after Harris heroics

23 Mar 2009


Kenny Jackett will let his players get their breath back after Millwall's 11th game in five and a half weeks put them back in with a chance of automatic promotion.

Sub Neil Harris hit a 10-minute hat-trick to secure a 3-2 win at Hartlepool after the Lions had been 2-0 down. Millwall are five points behind second-placed Peterborough with a game in hand. Jackett, said: "It was a tremendous comeback and an outstanding hat-trick.

"Considering the number of games we have had, sometimes it can be hard to keep your tempo. We've got a few days now to get our energy levels back up again."

Leyton Orient boss Geraint Williams claims his side's 1-0 defeat to Walsall will serve as a reality check after a three-game winning run. "We are disappointed but this is a wake-up call," he said.

Barnet manager Ian Hendon is relieved after the 3-2 win over Lincoln moved them seven points clear of the relegation zone. Hendon said: "If we start to improve our away form, we'll be all right."

Brentford will go nine points clear at the top of League Two if they win at Dagenham and Redbridge tonight.
