Conn-Clarke continued his great form at Carlisle, Mason-Clarke a matchwinner for Coventry
Posh forward Chris Conn-Clarke continued his excellent form for Carlisle United with a goal and an assist in a 2-1 National League win at Southend United on Saturday.
Conn-Clarke is on loan with the table-topping Cumbrians, initially until the end of January. Ex-Posh youngster Nathan Ralph set up the Southend reply.
Former Posh striker Jacob Wakeling scored his seventh goal in 10 appearances (eight starts) for Solihull Moors in a 2-0 National League win at Gateshead yesterday.
In the Championship Ephron Mason-Clark scored an acrobatic late winner as Coventry City pipped Stoke City 1-0 in a top-of-the-table clash at the Bet365 Stadium. Mason-Clark was stretchered off after scoring with a concussion, but was in good spirits in the dressing room.
Derby County’s good form at Championship level has co-incided with Joe Ward’s return to the starting line-up. The 30 year-old former Posh promotion winner has claimed an assist in his last three outings, the latest in yesterday’s 2-1 win at Blackburn Rovers. One-time Posh loanee Callum Elder had set up Derby’s first goal.
In League One another old Posh loanee Kyle Dempsey scored the final goal in in-form Bolton Wanderers’ 4-0 home win over Port Vale. It was his first League One appearance of the season. Joel Randall started the game.
Former Posh winger Nat Mendez-Laing grabbed the equaliser in MK Dons’ 2-2 draw at Barnet in League Two. The Bees had led 2-0 early in the game.
And two howlers from goalkeeper Christy Pym enabled Barrow to recover from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 at home to Grimsby.
