On naming Bange in his match-day squad on Monday, Grayson said: “It was a really good experience for him.
“I’ve seen him a couple of times now and we just felt it was a good opportunity for him to be around us.
“He hasn’t trained a great deal with us but that’s probably where we were as a football club with the players we had out.

“But it was a very proud moment for him to be on the bench for the first time and hopefully it will happen many more times now.”
