Just realised we are winning and JD has made sub after 60 minutes! What's going off?

[Spiritater]

3 points for win in 90, only 2 if u win on pens

[Sandy Pate Best Stag]

Jordan Graham set to come on. Danny Rose makes way.

Nice to see Jordan back after his injury.

[gazza1988]

Another great save by Bobby.

Should have caught it

485 in attendance

Afolayan on for Mellis. Perhaps a precaution because he's been clattered a couple of times.

[Sedgwick]

We need Mellis in the starting 11.... I know some don't like him because he plays football on he floor and doesn't tend to rush around like a madman but he is the sort of player we need.

If JD can find a way to get him playing at his best, along with CJ and find room for Khan... we might actually turn a corner. Also nice to see that he's stated he will try and sort centre mid out in Jan.

Drop Khan for CJ, Khan flatters to deceive.

How many Stags?

Excellent to see only 485 turn up, hopefully the EFL/FA will revert this back to its original format.

[The One]

Walsall beating veggies 6 0

We need to keep most of this team in for saturday ,ok maynard needs to play but smith deserves his chance as does OSJ,just let bishop stew

Is this Otis Khan who has probably been our best player this season? If not, he’s 100% in the top 3.

Best player in a poor team, it doesn't say a lot

[yorkshire stag]

full time won

[The One]

Game over

[Sandy Pate Best Stag]

Excellent result. Well done to all

[bobbystagsfan]

Well done the boys and JD. nice bit of money in the kitty for that!

[frt1987]

As we finished second that should mean an away tie next. Unless the u23 sides can’t be drawn at home...does that mean we would be drawn at home?

[Spiritater]

Booooooooooooooooooooo

[gazza1988]

We won 2-1. Afolayan expertly winding the clock down at the end.

Great performance. Fully deserved. Could have and perhaps should have scored more. Positive subs at the right time. Out of context of the season that's great. In context let's hope we don't go back to ultra defensive for long periods.

[lancer]

Good win that
Got to start with mellis and Shaungessey in centre midfield

[yorkstag]

I know it’s only the EFL trophy but let’s spare a thought tonight for The One, Yorkshire stag, Arsene Wengers Coat, Chris uk Nottm , Old Ram Stag and others I can’t be bothered to mention.

Must all be devastated that we won

[Amber Andy]

Well done to all.

Can this be a turning point? Let us hope so.

[Rob]

Well done lads, great to progress, cash in the bank and more experience for the younger players.

[CassellsCap]

Mellis is the most gifted footballer we have .Him and Maynard should always be on the pitch.
