ORIENT midfielder star Adam Chambers, who has been struggling with a calf injury, looks set to miss the start of the season.
Chambers has not featured in the club's pre-season programme and boss Geraint Williams admitted on Tuesday: "His calf injury is a stubborn one.
"It troubled him towards the end of last season and the prognosis was that rest would cure the problem.
"But he has felt it again in pre-season, so it's important that we get to the real cause of the problem and get him pain free.
"He has started some new treatment and is a naturally fit person and a real professional who works hard on the training ground.
"But he has missed a lot of the pre-season and the game against Bristol Rovers is probably going to come a little too early, because he is going to need a mini pre-season.
"He is desperate to get back. When I first arrived he had the problem, but played with it, but it's important to sort it out.
