Exeter City wing back Dion Rankine is delighted to be back and able to contribute on the pitch after a lengthy spell out with injury.
Dion, on-loan from Premier League side Chelsea hadn't featured in red and white since City's win away at Burton on September 2, but played for thirty minutes in Tuesday's win over Swindon Town in the Bristol Street Motors Trophy.
"I'm so pleased to be back and can't wait to get back on the pitch again after Tuesday night." said City's no.21.
"It's been a difficult period but it feels great to be back with the lads. It's good I'm fully healed again now so can get back to sprinting down the wing!
"This is my first real injury so it's the longest I've been without football so it's really spurred me on to get going again."
On Saturday's trip to face in-form Bolton Wanderers at the Toughsheet Community Stadium, Dion said:"I really believe in this team and we know what we can do, so hopefully we can put everything that is on paper into action and do well. Getting a win on Tuesday was so important to help us turn this around."
