Bunce signs for Gulls

Canvey Island have snapped up England National International defender Nathan Bunce from their Nationwide Conference rivals, Gravesend & Northfleet, reports www.nonleaguedaily.com

Bunce began his career at Brentford and also turned out for Yeading before joining Hayes, whom he helped to promotion to the Conference.

He signed for Farnborough Town during the close season of 2001 after spells as captain of both Stevenage Borough and Hayes.

Rated as one of the best defenders in the Conference, he followed Graham Westley by returning to Stevenage in February 2003 and then transferred to Weymouth in July 2004

However, just before last Christmas he was one of a number of Terras' players signed by Steve Claridge (now Millwall's manager) to be released by new boss Steve Johnson and he subsequently signed for the Stonebridge Road club.
