David Flitcroft settles for draw on return to Swindon
Posted Sunday, October 21, 2018 by PA
Mansfield manager David Flitcroft had to settle for a 0-0 draw on his return to Swindon as Stags midfielder Will Atkinson was sent off.
Atkinson was on the end of a tough challenge from Marc Richards early on, and took his frustrations out on first Matt Taylor and later Keshi Anderson and picked up two yellow cards as a result, with the second coming in the 43rd minute.
Prior to the red, CJ Hamilton shot over and Danny Rose had a header well saved by Lawrence Vigouroux while Elijah Adebayo and Anderson were both denied at the other end.
Swindon were the more threatening in the second half, , with substitute Kaiyne Woolery warming the gloves of Bobby Olejnik.
On-loan Fulham forward Adebayo had the best chance, however he could only divert a shot from close range wide of the post following a Jermaine McGlashan cross.
With eight minutes left, Taylor hit the post with a curled free-kick.
