Darlington's Richie Foran will serve a four match ban for his sending off against Bradford at the weekend. He will miss a trio of crunch games against Chesterfield, Stockport, and the Bulls as well as tomorrow's trip to Barnet.

Mansfield have named local Mayor Tony Egginton as their new Chairman, replacing James Derry who quit last week. Egginton is one of a number of local figures to come out against John Batchelor's plans to rename the club. Batchelor has confirmed plans to mortgage the ground in order to buy it rather than plough in his own money.

Stockport's 2,000 fans that got into to Chester's ground on Saturday will get free admission to the re-arranged game. They took over two sides of the ground, and over a hundred more had to be found space in the main stand after Chester oversold the allocated areas with hundreds more locked out.

Accrington boss John Coleman has been charged with misconduct by the FA for being sent to the stands against Chesterfield. Backroom staff Jimmy Bell and Ian Liversedge have both been charged over incidents against MK Dons last week.
