Doncaster youngster Craig Nelthorpe is determined to use his loan spell at Gateshead as a springboard to the first team."I look at Sam Hird who went on loan and did not look like breaking through here, but then his chance came and now he is a first-team regular," Nelthorpe told the club's official website.
"It's going well at the moment at Gateshead and I'm getting games, playing in the position I like on the left flank.
"I'm putting the work in, getting crosses over and working hard at my game."
