Boss in Sellars future talks
Teamtalk
Stuart Watkiss will meet with chairman Keith Haslam today to try to get
financial backing to keep Scott Sellars until the end of the season.
Former Premiership star Sellars did well and scored in yesterday's 2-2
friendly reserve game at Notts County and Watkiss said: "I would like to
take Scott to the end of the season but it's all down to finance and I will
speak to the chairman today.
"Obviously with the transfer deadline coming up next week Scott needs to
know where he stands as soon as possible as well so he has the chance to
get fixed up elsewhere.
"He has trained hard but has not played many games recently. But he still
showed his Premiership quality yesterday and could prove very useful to us
in the run-in."
Although predominantly left-footed, Sellars played down the right and did a
good job in a position Watkiss has been having problems filling since Liam
Lawrence was ruled out for the season.
Trailing 1-0 at the break, Stags levelled through Andy White, who had an
excellent second half, just after the break and then quickly went ahead
through Sellars before conceding an equaliser 15 minutes from time.
"Overall it was a good performance from the lads," said Watkiss.

Tony Hackworth grabbed two goals in a behind closed doors game at Meadow
Lane as the Magpies reserves battled out a 2-2 draw with neighbouring
Mansfield Town.
The former Leeds United striker had opened the scoring for the home side on
27 minutes, after showing great composure to power Niall McNamara's headed
pass into the roof of the net from ten yards.
The Stags struck back immediately after the break, and took the lead on 52
minutes, but Hackworth levelled the scores with half an hour remaining when
he broke clear of the Mansfield defence, firing his shot across the face of
the goalkeeper and into the bottom corner.
