LEAGUE TWO THIS WEEKEND

-

LINCOLN manager Danny Cowley was bullish after John Akinde (left) scored twice to help his side come from behind to win 2-1 at FOREST GREEN. ‘We were a juggernaut and we ran over them,’ said Cowley. ‘It needed a performanc­e like that.’ The Imps are three points clear at the top, seven clear of MK Dons in fourth, outside the automatic promotion places. But Lincoln will be pushed all the way in the remaining 11 games by BURY and MANSFIELD. Nicky Maynard, Jay O’Shea and Scott Wharton scored in Bury’s 3-0 win over

MACCLESFIE­LD, whose mini revival under Sol Campbell appears over with no win since late January. The Silkmen are now four points from safety. Mansfield’s 4-2 win over CHELTENHAM was all the more satisfying as they managed it without top scorer Tyler Walker, who was serving the first match of a two-game suspension.

CAMBRIDGE boss Colin Calderwood’s promise of a post-match Nando’s spurred the U’s to a 2-0 victory at

GRIMSBY. Defender George Taft, who scored in the win, said Calderwood wrote ‘Nando’s’ on the away dressing room wall before the game. TOM FARMERY
