League Two verdict: Yeovil's Otis Khan to miss FA Cup tie against Manchester United after being sent off while Accrington keep up winning run after coming from behind to beat Port Vale

  • Michael Flynn records his third straight win after Newport County beat Crawley
  • Otis Khan to miss FA Cup tie against Manchester United after being sent off
  • Maxime Biamou rifled a 25-yard effort into the top corner against Swindon
  • Accrington Stanley win four successive games as they beat Port Vale 3-2

After another busy weekend of League Two action, Sportsmail's TOM FARMERY reflects on the thrills and spills...  

 

HERO OF THE WEEK - MICHAEL FLYNN 


He has performed a minor miracle since being appointed last March. Newport County were 11 points from safety and effectively doomed. Somehow, in the last game of last season, they stayed up. No looking over their shoulder this time, though. The 2-1 win over Crawley was their third straight, moving them up to ninth. Play-offs are the aim and with this week’s added highlight of an FA Cup visit from Tottenham.

ZERO OF THE WEEK - OTIS KHAN 

Someone who will miss the FA Cup limelight. The midfielder was set to take on his boyhood club Manchester United on Friday but will have to watch from the stands after being sent off for shoulder barging referee Kevin Johnson in the 94th minute of the 2-1 home defeat by Chesterfield.

GOAL OF THE WEEK - MAXIME BIAMOU 

A long ball forward was controlled by Jordan Maguire-Drew before he neatly passed back to Biamou, who rifled a 25-yard effort into the top corner. Coventry’s first in the 3-1 win over Swindon. 

QUOTE OF THE WEEK - NATHAN JONES 

After going six points clear at the top after beating Morecambe 1-0, the Luton boss said: ‘Sometimes we might have to grind out results and we did. We’ve shown we are a stronger side than last year.’

STAT OF THE WEEK

Four successive league wins for third-placed Accrington Stanley, who came from 2-0 down to beat Port Vale 3-2.
