Gavin became Ian McParland's first permanent signing at Meadow Lane in January 2008 by putting pen-to-paper on an eighteen-month contract.
Having fallen out of favour at Peterborough as Manager Darren Ferguson splashed the cash, the experienced midfielder jumped at the chance to move to Meadow Lane in order to secure regular first-team football.
The former Coventry junior made a name for himself at Hartlepool where he helped guide them to promotion in 2003, and McParland was delighted to secure his services by admitting he had snapped up a player 'who knew how to play the midfield role'.
Gavin is the son of Celtic boss Gordan Strachan.
