Hereford signing Danny Blanchett says he is happy to play an unfamiliar role after making his debut on Saturday.

The 21-year-old full-back who has joined on loan from Peterborough played in central defence in Hereford's 2-0 win against Accrington Stanley.

"Centre-back isn't my usual position - I've played left back all my life - but I find it quite comfortable," Blanchett told BBC Hereford and Worcester.

"It's a good position for me. As long as I'm playing football, I'm happy."

Blanchett says he did not have too much time to get to know his new team-mates.

"I arrived here on Thursday night and I trained yesterday with the lads, got to know them and played on Saturday.

"I went to Stevenage on loan but [Peterborough manager] Darren Ferguson called me back.

"[Bulls boss] John Trewick saw me in the reserves on Wednesday against Norwich, and I've signed here for a month.

"We'll see how the month gets on, and we'll see if it needs to be extended."
