Dr Martens League Western Division club lkeston Town were unable to end their miserable run of form and went down 2-1 to the students of Team Bath on Saturday.

Manager Phil Stant, however, has been busy signing no less than four more players in an effort to turn things round.

Striker Graham Lewis, who gained Football League experience with Lincoln City after starting out at Reading, has joined after being with UniBond League First Division outfit Lincoln United and Northern Counties East Leaguers Goole AFC most recently.

The 21-year-old has also played for Frickley Athletic and Northwhich Victoria.

Midfielder David Jervis, also 21, made 30 appearances for Mansfield Town in the Third Division before being released by manager Keith Curle. Born in Worksop, he then joined UniBond Premier side Gainsborough Trinity last January and has joined the Reds from the Northolme.

Mick Lyons, 22, is the brother of ex-Ilkeston and current Worcester City player Pat Lyons.

A forward, Mick is a former Derby County trainee, who has also played for Hinckley United, Loughborough University and, most recently, Northern Counties East League side Mickleover Sports.

Midfielder John Burns is the fourth new arrival at the New Manor Ground. Burns (pictured) joined UniBond Premier side Hucknall Town on a permanent basis in the summer of 2003 after a successful loan spell from Conference outfit Burton Albion.

Originally with Irish side Belvedere, he played League football for Nottingham Forest, Bristol City and Carlisle before joining the Brewers in December 2002 and has represented the Republic of Ireland at all levels up to under-21.
