Bower: Different Ways Of Winning Crucial For Avenue

A 3-1 victory away at Alfreton Town was their last game due to the postponement last weekend as they didn't play Tamworth, despite not playing Avenue stayed in the play-off places, writes Tom Feaheny.

"The league is so strong this season that if we are to be successful, we must maintain our high standards week in, week out to give ourselves a chance of winning matches," Bower told the club's website

"On the whole the players have been excellent over the course of the season so far. There is a real togetherness in the group and the fact that we have only made two signings since the start of the season and have a relatively small squad has helped to create a good feeling in the dressing room amongst the players."

Their next opponent will be Tamworth in the re-arranged game, with Bower paying this compliment to their opponents.

"Tamworth are a strong and experienced side and one of the teams in and around us in the table who will have ambitions to finish in the top 7. I’ve come up against Andy a few times in recent seasons and every game has ended in a draw or decided by the odd goal so I’m expecting another tight encounter."
