Canada international is back from a four month lay-off that he described as the toughest of his career.
Harry Paton still winces when he looks at a picture of the challenge which stopped his season in its tracks.
And the midfielder can’t wait to put the memory of that tackle - and the picture - out of his mind for good. Paton said: “I know there are loads of injuries you can kind of say the pitch had an effect on it. But this was more the tackle and the impact of the kick initially. “I was just frustrated in general. I’d been really happy with how pre-season had been going in general. I was really looking forward to the start of the season and then…well, it was just a big blow. It was probably the hardest part of my career so far just dealing with that.
Paton doesn’t blame Bully Wee frontman Martin Rennie for the challenge that stalled his season and reckons the experience has made him stronger. He said: “I wouldn’t say it was his fault. It’s part of the game, it was just a bad instance to be in that situation. But I’m really happy to have recovered and got through it. It’s made me stronger. Being able to get back has been the main thing.
Meanwhile, Well players hoping to make a break for the Euro spots warmed up during the international break - with a trip to the Escape Rooms. Stuart Kettlewell’s players spent the fortnight hard bat work but took time out for a bonding session at the attraction where teams are locked in a themed cellar and challenged to solve riddles to work their way out.
