New signing James Hanson has admitted that life as a professional footballer is proving difficult but, after signing from local non-league outfit Guiseley, the striker isn't complaining.

While he was scoring for Guiseley, he was combining his efforts with full-time work at a nearby Co-op.

Two defeats in a week against Notts County and Nottingham Forest haven't dampened his enthusiasm and after speaking to Telegraph & Argus, he said: "I don't miss the working life at all.

"It's been really tiring and I'm still coming to terms with being a professional but I'm enjoying it.

"I think I've settled in quite well, although I know I can improve a lot as a player."
