Published Date:
01 September 2008
A first half defensive howler by captain Adie Moses left the Stags trailing at half-time in their debut live on Setanta Sports TV on Tuesday evening.
Moses' backward header to keeper Paddy Gamble allowed Sodje to pounce in the 34th minute.
But Michael Blackwood rescued a ppint with a second half leveller.
Striker Jason Lee was missing for the Stags, the only change from Saturday's fourth successive home win, after failing to shake off an injury picked up while shooting during the 1-0 win over Grays.
Aaron O'Connor, who had been ineligible for that match, came into the side for the clash at York as the Stags looked for their first away win of the season.
