James Westlake’s side trailed 3-0 with 10 or so minutes left but strikes from Charlie Pitcher and new Gillingham loan signing Damien Theodore scored to make it 3-2 and raise their hopes of claiming a point.
But the Kent hosts scored again to complete the win and leave the Robins reflecting on a fourth league defeat of the season, which leaves them 14th in the table.
They’ll look to get back to winning ways on Saturday when they go to Erith Town.
