League One:

Francis Okoronkwo- Doncaster Rovers- 21st out of 24

Okoronkwo scored his first goal for Rovers last weekend, netting the opener in a 3-3 draw with Wigan Athletic.

The forward fired past Sam Tickle into the top corner on seven minutes, before Doncaster surrendered a 3-0 lead in the second half.

Grant McCann’s side then made it four games unbeaten on Tuesday, with Okoronkwo playing 70 minutes in a 3-0 home win over Leyton Orient.

Rovers now sit level on points with Burton Albion in 20th, and travel to Bradford City next.

 

Tyler Onyango/Roman Dixon- Stockport County- 4th out of 24

Neither player was selected for Stockport’s matchday squads against Cardiff City or Blackpool, as The Hatters strengthened their grip on the play-off spots.

Onyango has been absent since picking up an injury on Boxing Day, whilst Dixon still awaits his debut having made the switch to Edgeley Park last week.

Stockport host Plymouth Argyle on Saturday.

 

League Two:

Isaac Heath- Accrington Stanley- 14th out of 24

Heath bagged his sixth goal of the season in Accrington’s 4-1 win at struggling Newport County in midweek, continuing his impressive maiden loan spell.

The winger latched onto a quick breakaway in added time, before showing quick feet and sending Jordan Wright the wrong way to put the icing on the cake for Stanley.

The Reds face Cheltenham Town at home next.

 

Will Tamen- Tranmere Rovers- 17th out of 24

Tamen started both of Tranmere’s back-to-back losses, as Rovers made it four defeats on the spin at Cambridge United and Barnet.

Tuesday’s defeat in the capital saw The Whites lose in the 96th minute, however Andy Crosby singled the defender out for praise after a strong performance.

Tranmere welcome Salford City to Prenton Park on Saturday, looking to turn their fortunes around.

 

National League North:

Fraser Barnsley- Marine- 9th out of 24

Barnsley played 90 minutes in Marine’s 2-2 draw with South Shields, before missing a midweek victory over Chester.

The Lilywhites head to Tamworth in FA Trophy action next.

 

Scottish Championship:

George Finney- Ayr United- 5th out of 10

Finney was deployed at right wing-back in Ayr’s 2-1 loss at Partick Thistle last Saturday.

The full back clashes with Raith Rovers on home turf this weekend.
