Both played in a reserves run out, in a behind closed doors friendly with Derby this week, with the Stags running out 3-1 winners.
Allan Russell also had a run out during the game and Stags boss Peter Shirtliff (speaking to the official Mansfield Town website) was happy with the work out "I was pleased with the performance of the lads but these games are about more than the end result it is to get players that do not figure on a regular basis some competitive football and to bring the injured players back to match fitness. Allan Russell played an hour and had a good game coming through it with no ill effect"
Looking ahead to the difficult trip to Sincil Bank this weekend, Shirtliff also told the official site "Lincoln can play how they want, we are currently in good form with a good run, losing only one game in nine and having three wins out of four. So it is up to us to combat they way they choose to play and carry on with our current run"
