Adie Britton said at the start of the season that how Bath Citydealt with inevitable setbacks would determine whether they survivedin the Blue Square Bet Premier or not.
Five months later and the fact that his team have yet to sufferback-to-back league defeats is a source of great pride to the Citymanager and a major reason why they currently sit in mid-table.
City went into 2011 on the back of a disappointing home loss atthe hands of Forest Green Rovers, only to bounce back with victoryat second-placed Newport County.
Defeat followed at Wrexham two days later but Britton's menresponded with a magnificent team display to take a deserved pointagainst former League Cup winners Luton Town last weekend. "Everyonelast week was looking at the games against Newport, Wrexham andLuton and thinking there wouldn't be many points on offer," saidBritton.
"But we've got a win, a draw and a narrow defeat out of them andthat's massively pleasing, especially considering how restricted weare with troops at this moment in time.
"It was a really dogged performance against Luton. Everyoneshowed great application and they all worked exceedingly hard. Itgot more frenetic as the game went on but we seemed to work harderand harder.
"The most pleasing thing, more than anything else, is that ourfitness never fails us, even though we are part-time. It is a realtestament to how hard the lads work individually when they are awayfrom the club."
