Not Physically present 5yrs ago

Hi all
I am eligible for the Citizenship 26/09 onwards as that completes my one year on ILR (Through Tier 1 general).
I just checked my old passport and realized that I was not in the country between 21/09/2009 to 27/01/2010.
What does this imply? Do I need to wait till 27/01/2015 before I can apply? I know its clearly mentioned in the requirements:
You should also check that you were physically present in the UK 5 years (3 years if you are married to or in civil partnership with a British citizen) before the date that the application will be received by the Home Office
I wanted to know if there are others as me.
