Fully-fit squad for David Flitcroft’s first game in charge of Mansfield
Posted Monday, March 05, 2018 by PA
David Flitcroft has a near fully-fit squad to choose from as he prepares to take charge of Mansfield for the first time in the home clash with Lincoln.
Defender David Mirfin is the Stags’ only absentee as he continues his rehabilitation from a knee injury.
Flitcroft arrived from Swindon following Steve Evans’ departure for Peterborough and the likes of Will Atkinson and Jacob Mellis will be hoping a change of manager heralds a return to the first team.
Flitcroft, assistant Ben Futcher, members of the first team squad and supporters were among volunteers who cleared snow from the One Call Stadium pitch on Sunday in a bid to ensure the fixture goes ahead.
Lincoln manager Danny Cowley could ring the changes after his side were beaten 4-1 at home by Crewe last time out.
A run of one win in five has stalled the Imps’ play-off push, with the likes of Scott Wharton and Harry Anderson hoping for a recall.
Lee Frecklington managed just over an hour on his return against Crewe, with Ollie Palmer and Elliott Whitehouse also hoping to be involved in midfield.
Goalkeeper Josh Vickers and defender James Wilson remain long-term absentees.
