Much of Bath City's success over the past five years has been attributed to the dressing room 'bubble'.
Los-Angeles-Lakers The team spirit painstakingly fostered by manager Adie Britton, his predecessor John Relish and assistant Lee Howells has undoubtedly been worth countless extra points during City's rise from the Southern League to the top division of the non-league game.
And defender Danny Webb can see plenty of similarities with the club he helped punch above its weight in Blue Square Bet Premier last season, Salisbury City, after making a close-season switch to Twerton Park.
The Whites would have finished sixth - one place outside the play- offs and above the likes of Wrexham, Cambridge United and Mansfield Town - had it not been for a ten-point deduction for entering administration, despite attracting an average home gate of 912.
"It's always nice when you go to a new club and everyone is as welcoming as they have been - not just to me but to all the new lads," said Webb.
"I understand the lads who have been here for a few years have formed a tight bond and it takes a special type of person to fit into that.
"Adie does his research on players as people as well. There are no cliques in the dressing room, no bitching - everyone is fighting for each other.
"I can see why they have gone up through the leagues over the years and hopefully we'll hold our own this year.
"Last year Salisbury showed what can be done at a so-called smaller club with not a great budget by having a load of young lads and a few older heads here and there.
"If you look at the Conference records over the years not a lot of clubs go straight back down after coming up and hopefully we can continue that."
Salisbury's three-year stay in the Blue Square Bet Premier came to an end, however, when they were demoted two divisions by the Conference for failing to pay back a creditor by a set deadline.
City have been one of the chief beneficiaries, securing the services of Webb together with his fellow ex-Whites Jake Reid and Luke Ruddick, while another, the highly-rated Sean Clohessy, signed a one-year deal before being allowed to join Southend United a fortnight later.
manolo blahnik "It is a shame, what happened at Salisbury," said Webb.
"We didn't get paid all pre-season last year, which for a full- time club is laughable really. Then we had the ten-point deduction, so we were constantly getting kicked in the whatsits.
"But we kept on fighting and would have finished sixth with our points tally. Then we got demoted two leagues but the players and fans couldn't have done any more.
"Up until now, Salisbury has been the happiest part of my life, football-wise. I found it very similar to this club in that everyone was pulling in the same direction. I had a really good relationship with the fans and that's something I'd like to have again here."
Despite only just turning 27, City are Webb's 15th club. The son of former Chelsea player Dave Webb started out at Southampton and played under his dad at Yeovil Town and Southend.
He made more than 70 starts in the Football League and also played in a Champions League qualifier for Maltese side Marsaxlokk against FK Sarajevo in 2007.
