We are looking forward to the Scunthorpe game this weekend.

I remember the heavy defeat against them back in August and we gave away some silly goals that day.

We started off well and had a few chances but after that we just fell apart.

It will be a good game and the boys will be looking at that last result and thinking ‘we owe these one’. The boys, as always, will be giving it their best.

I haven’t played as many minutes as I would have liked this season. I started well, playing week in, week out, trying to be consistent, then I was taken out of the team and that was frustrating, being on the sidelines for a couple of weeks.

But I kept my head down, training well and when the new manager came in, it was a fresh start for everyone. I got my chance again.

When I did get back into the team, I got a tight hamstring, against Wimbledon but I started last weekend. I was delighted with the points and to be back in the team again.

It’s not looking so good for my old team Newport, in League 2. They are struggling and the result at the weekend (losing 4-0 to second-from-bottom Leyton Orient) was bad.

The old ground of another of my former teams, Rushden, was pulled down this week, which was sad to see. They spent about £3million on that ground and it was a great club. It is such a waste.

I was there on loan for a year and have some good memories. I scored seven or eight goals and we got to the play-offs, losing to Oxford.

I was asked about my second sport for the column and when I was younger, I did well at Gaelic football.

I played for Dublin but had to give up, it was that or football. I was doing well and playing for one of my local teams before playing for Dublin schools.

It is quite physical and it was one or the other. I preferred football at the time because I could make more of a career in it.
