Defender Ben Gordon has spoken of his relief and delight after scoring a rare goal to cap his successful recall to the Gainsborough Trinity line-up.

“It was frustrating to be left out of the side for nine or ten games,” the much-travelled 27-year-old full-back told Gainsborough Trinity TV after Saturday’s match.
“But I kept training the best I could, and when I spoke to the manager, he said that when I get back in the team, to make sure I take my chance.
