LEAGUE ONE THIS WEEKEND

-

HERO OF THE WEEK

paul Hurst (Shrewsbury manager). It was at this point in the season that many expected Shrewsbury to fade away. no way could a side tipped for relegation maintain position at the top of the table. While they have dropped down to second place, Hurst’s side look more likely to go up with each game — a 2-1 away win at Southend the latest success.

ZERO OF THE WEEK

Chris lucketti (Bury manager). He may have been a fans’ favourite during his playing days at Gigg lane, but Chris lucketti’s management ability is causing angst among Bury fans. a 2-0 home defeat by fleetwood was their fourth straight league loss.

GOAL OF THE WEEK

ollie Hawkins ( portsmouth v northampto­n). Hawkins scored twice in pompey’s 3-1 win but his first got the loudest cheer. an excellent ball forward by Christian Burgess allowed him to head over goalkeeper matt Ingram from outside the penalty area.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

rotherham boss paul Warne. ‘to finish the year with a win is great and with the run we are on at the minute the club is a happy place to be,’ after his side enjoyed a third successive win — 2-1 at Walsall.

STAT OF THE WEEK

3 — It’s starting to click for promoted Doncaster who have now recorded three wins on the spin.

MATCH OF THE DAY

Blackburn v rotherham. Blackburn aim to keep up the chase on Shrewsbury, while rotherham can extend their run of wins to four.
