Enfield Town go into tomorrow’s game at Bath City in good spirits despite another week of frustration for the management team in terms of recruitment.

With both Harry Ottaway and Rhys Forster doubtful for the visit to Somerset and an experienced midfielder who was on the verge of signing suddenly injuring his meniscus in training, Lady Luck has hardly been shining on us.

Gavin continues to work tirelessly to improve the squad across the pitch, only for potential signings to slip through his fingers, coupled with unexpected setbacks.

“If it doesn’t rain, it pours,” said Gavin. “You couldn’t make it up. I’ve said this before but I’m working as hard as I can on and off the pitch.”

One win, of course, could completely kickstart our season against a team well fancied this season.

“Bath are very strong at home but we’ve had a great week in training and two excellent sessions working on their strengths and weaknesses,” said Gavin. “Everyone is very positive in the circumstances.”
