Speaking via the club's official website, Joe said; "I’m excited. I’m more than ready to get myself back into it now.
"I’ve kept myself ticking over in that time but I’m ready to get back to it now, meet the lads and hopefully have a successful season.
"To hear the ambitions of the Club and to be a part of that this season and the one after is something I’m ready to buy into.
"I’ve played eighty-four games in the last two seasons and I feel confident within myself. I’ve come on, not just in terms of learning League Two, but mentally as well.
"I feel I am more experienced now and I can help the younger players but as well, I’m in a position where I want to learn from other players."
