However, the 23 year old has no intention of changing his style.

"I don't think I'm as effective if I change the way I play because I won't put myself around and get in people's faces and annoy people if you like," he said.

"To be honest I had that problem with Darlington last season and I did go off the ball, but I'm not going to change the way I play. I've always been a physical player and the manager brought me up here so you can't really change the player you brought in."

He continued: "I've never been intimidated; my dad would give me a slap around the face if I ever did become intimidated. I've been brought up that way and I won't shy away in a game and if I do annoy people along the way then so be it."

As to the alleged headbutting incident.

He said: "It was a bit of handbags to be honest. As far as I'm concerned it was a nothing thing, we shook hands after the game and that's it."
