PADDY BOYLE says he is glad to have extended his loan spell with Gateshead as he feels he has begun to hit form with the Conference outfit.
Boyle joined the Tynesiders on loan in July last year and has since been a regular in both former manager Ian Bogie and current boss Anth Smith’s side.
The Dunfermline Athletic left-back will now remain at the International Stadium until the end of the season.
Meanwhile, the Tynesiders have loaned Chris Bush to Lincoln City for a month.
Bush, a product of the Brentford youth set up, joined the Heed from AFC Wimbledon last summer but has found first-team chances less frequent since being sent off against Woking in September.
