Doncaster Rovers forward Paul Heffernan is delighted to be back in action and back among the goals, following a lengthy lay-off with an ankle injury.

The 26-year-old Irishman spent more than two months on the sidelines, but has netted four times in his last seven games after making a full recovery.

He told the Sheffield Star: "I was a bit short of match fitness when I first got back.

"I've not played a lot of games due to injury and I've not had a good run in the team. I wouldn't say that I'm 100 per cent fit, but I'm getting there.

"It has been really disappointing with all the injuries, but hopefully I can keep fit between now and the end of the season and nick a few goals."
