STAGS captain Jake Buxton's chances of returning for the vital match against Accrington Stanley are rated as just 50-50
Buxton missed the Boxing Day win over Peterborough through tonsilitis and on Friday the club's official website
mansfieldtown.net said his chances of returning were rated at 50-50.
His defensive partner Alex John-Baptiste, who was also missing from the Boxing day win through injury, is definitely ruled out - together with the suspended Stephen Dawson and Lee Bell, who is recovering from a knee operation.
Yesterday boss Billy Dearden told Chad the injuries and sispension meant he would have 'to shuffle the pack a bit again'.
