Cheltenham Town 1 Mansfield Town 1

Billy Kee is following orders from Scunthorpe and it's paying dividends for Mansfield.

Striker Kee, 24, came off the bench to earn the Stags a valuable point and ease their relegation worries before revealing:

"I'd had some some injuries and personal issues which have been sorted out now, so Scunthorpe just told me to go to out on loan, get some games under my belt, score goals and enjoy myself. I'm definitely doing that.

"I'd love to go back and be successful, but at the moment I'm focussed on the job I have to do for Mansfield. We have lads here who were in the play-off last season and the good thing is that we're able to bounce back if we have a bad result. No-one lets their heads drop in this squad."

Mansfield manager Adam Murray said:

"We hit our goals for February and the players have raised the bar for March which shows confidence and optimism. Our main aim remains to stay in the League."

Meanwhile Danny Haynes is hoping to repay Cheltenham and his best mate for bringing him in from the cold.

Former Charlton striker Haynes, 27, was released by Notts County in January and played his first full game of the season thanks to Robins full back Craig Braham-Barrett. Haynes explained:

"I've know Craig since we were about thirteen. He told the gaffer I didn't have a club and so Cheltenham gave me a lifeline last week. Nothing would give me more pleasure than to do my bit and help them stay up."

Winger Wes Burns scored the opener for Cheltenham just after the break and boss Russell Milton was pleased to see his side move out of the drop zone. He said:

"We lost momentum a bit, but came back into at the end."
