Jordan Burrow thanked the Boston United backroom staff for aiding his recovery as he returned to the Pilgrims squad for the first time in three months.
The striker - named man of the match following yesterday's defeat to leaders Gateshead - made his first appearance since December's FA Trophy victory over Kidderminster Harriers.

"It was a serious injury I did. I tore the tendon in my calf so, at one stage, I thought I wouldn't get back this season.
"But I put a lot of hard work in and thanks to (sports rehabilitator Hayden Clifton) and all the backroom staff who did fantastic to get me back.
"It was testament to them that I managed to play 90 minutes today and I've only trained on Thursday properly."

And Burrow conceded it's been a tough time on the sidelines.
He added: "I'm not a very good watcher.
"I like to be there the whole time but I don't like watching. I'd rather be involved so I just love to be out there.
"I'd play every single minute if I could."
