The 31-year-old worked with Abbott at Leeds and he had no hesitation in signing a new contract after ending the campaign at Brunton Park on a short-term deal. He told the club's official website: "Almost as soon as the season finished I was on the phone and talking to the gaffer, because I was always happy to come here. "There's a real desire to play the game properly here and that's all you can ask for. "I'm sure there probably were other clubs interested but that didn't really matter to me. "You have to look at everything and a big part of it was the fact that I knew the gaffer from his days at Leeds."
