ROB Hall is planning to be at Oxford United next season, with the winger feeling he is yet to repay his debt of gratitude to the club.

The 24-year-old is raring to go as an impact substitute in the U’s vital game at Doncaster Rovers tomorrow.

If he gets on the pitch it will be his first competitive action since suffering a knee injury in November.

It has been a familiar tale for Hall, who rejoined the U’s in 2016 midway through a recovery from a cruciate ligament problem in his left knee.

The two-year contract he signed included a 12-month extension clause, which boss Karl Robinson has suggested will be triggered.

And that would suit Hall, who feels there is unfinished business for him at United.

“I owe a lot more games and performances to the club,” he said.

“They took me in at a bad time and I’m not looking to go anywhere. It’s up to the gaffer really, the club have an option on me.

“My head’s on this Saturday and then making sure I’m right for pre-season.

“The gaffer has already told me I can have a holiday and that’s

it, I’ll be in as soon as it finishes.”

Hall was named as a substitute in Tuesday’s 1-0 defeat at Wigan Athletic and with limited training under his belt he would only be an option late in the game tomorrow.

But Robinson will welcome an extra attacking option with United still not safe from relegation trouble in Sky Bet League One.

Hall said: “It’s a crucial time now, whatever you can do it’s important. I’m just trying to make sure I’m ready for however long I can get on the pitch for.

“This Saturday I would only be allowed to play a certain amount of time, but even if I end up playing longer I’ll just run my nuts off.”

Hall’s initial knee injury came playing under Robinson at Milton Keynes Dons, who were unhappy he ended up signing for United.

But the winger has been keen to point out there was never any ill-feeling between the two.

He said: “We’ve always been fine. We stayed in touch and I was speaking to him before he got announced here.

“It is good when a manager comes in who likes you, but at the same time he’s hard on me to get the best out of me.”
