Hone has made 65 appearances for Lincoln City

Lincoln City defender Danny Hone will return to Sincil Bank a better player after his loan spell at Darlington, according to his agent Jamie Hart.

Hone, 21, is set to return to the Imps in January, having played 20 matches in the Blue Square Bet Premier since joining the Quakers in August.

Hart told BBC Lincolnshire: "He's been playing in a physically tough league.

"When he returns I think the Lincoln fans will see a different Danny Hone, a better player who's made progress."

Hone began as a trainee at Sincil Bank and made his Football League debut in November 2007.

He made 65 appearances for the Imps but missed much of last season with a broken leg before being loaned to Darlington by former City boss Chris Sutton in the summer.
