It’s a great Friday for football fans in the region.
At Plainmoor, promotion chasing Torquay United host Accrington Stanley (1500) with the morning news that Martin Ling has just been name League Two manager of the month and free scoring skipper Lee Mansell, the division’s player of the month.
However the most important win for United today will be avenging December’s 3-1 defeat at Accrington and maintaining their promotion push.
Cheltenham Town seek to get their promotion bid back on the rails at home to Barnet (Whaddon Road 1500) while in-form Bristol Rovers host Gillingham (Memorial Stadium 1500).
