Midfielder Owen Garvan says he is delighted to be back in the first team again having gone three months without playing a senior game. The Irish U21 international skipper played the full 90 minutes against Sheffield Wednesday on Saturday, having been left out since August.
Garvan told the club site: "I'm obviously glad to be back playing and hopefully I've done enough to stay in the manager's plans for next week.
"It was difficult being out of the squad and watching the lads travel away, but I've kept working hard and all I want to do is help the team and play a part in helping to push the club up the table.
"Like any player I want to be out there on the pitch, playing games and I want to stay in the team.
"My fitness wasn't too bad. I have played in the reserves and for Ireland, but you can't beat playing every week for match sharpness."
Meanwhile, former Blue Darren Currie has joined Dagenham and Redbridge on a two-month loan from Chesterfield.
Elsewhere, ex-Town striker Neil Woods has been named the new manager of Grimsby, having previously been youth coach at Blundell Park.
