The defender has suffered with an undiagnosed knee complaint since pre-season and has not appeared for the Robins since their 2-1 victory over Millwall back in May.

But after returning to training last week the 33-year-old made the latest step in his rehabilitation at the New Lawn.

Reserve team boss Ady Williams handed starts to several first-team players, including Mark Marshall, Chris Allen, Lee Peacock, Mark Scott and Barry Corr - who is himself battling back to full fitness after six months out with a shoulder injury.

And Corr was on target for the Robins from the spot as they came from behind to secure a point, extending their unbeaten start to the first three games of the reserve season.
