Rawson keen to stay with Stanley

FARREND Rawson admits he would be more than happy to stay at Accrington Stanley when his loan spell expires next week.

Rawson has been on loan at Stanley since the summer, but is due to return to his parent club Derby County in January.

The 21-year-old has made 14 appearances for the Reds in all competitions so far this season, and he would have no problem extending his loan spell.

“I’m pretty sure some conversations will be happening at some point and we will talk through all of my options, I’m open to anything, I’ve enjoyed my time here so we will see,” he told the club’s official website.

“The club has made a massive impression on me.

“We have a great set of lads in the dressing room and I’ve really enjoyed the coaching from all of the management.

“I’ve played a lot of games and I can’t speak highly enough about the club and the experience that I’ve had here.”

Stanley have been in poor form recently, with the team dropping out of the play-off places and down to ninth after a run of four straight defeats.

Despite the troubles, Rawson is adamant that his side are more than capable of turning things around and continuing in their battle for promotion.

“What I can say is that all of the lads are raring to go.

“We know how good we are and what have in our locker,” he said.

“We just want to put this drought to bed now and show everybody what we can do.

“We have been working hard and I know that it has to click because of the quality we have, when it does it’s going to be exciting.”

Up next for Stanley is a trip to Blundell Park to face Grimsby Town on Saturday.
