Tomlin was a Leicester youth player

Rushden & Diamonds midfielder Lee Tomlin has set his sights on getting them back to winning ways as he returns from suspension.

Diamonds lost all three games while the 20-year-old was banned for a red card against Mansfield.

"It's been very frustrating, it's been hard. I never want to watch football, I've always wanted to play," Tomlin told BBC Radio Northampton.

"It's a team game but I'm back now and all I want to do is win."

He added: "The lads have done well but they should've got more points."

Tomlin was suspended after being sent off against the Stags for an incident involving the former Rushden player Gary Mills.

But he is available for Saturday's clash with the Blue Square Premier's bottom side Chester.

"I just hope we can put it right, but I'm glad to be back on Saturday," he said.

"Chester have just had a new manager. They might be all up for it. They will have a lot to prove."
