It was another mixed bag for Manchester United's loanees over the weekend as eight players got minutes for their temporary clubs, with varying degrees of success.
Young goalkeeper Nathan Bishop arguably enjoyed the best weekend of them all as he kept a crucial clean sheet in Mansfield's vital 2-0 win over Crawley. Victory lifted the Stags up to sixth in the League Two table, just four points off an automatic promotion place and with a game in hand on third-place Northampton.
He is not the only United youngster dreaming of promotion this season, with James Garner and Ethan Laird both fighting for a spot in the Premier League next season.
