Stags newest striker Ian Holmes is hoping to get his first real chance to impress as the Stags take on Rotherham United in the 1st round of the Johnstones Paint Trophy on Tuesday (4th Sep. 19.45).

After making a brief appearance in the 4-2 home win over Stockport, the former Matlock Town man is keen to show Stags supporters what he can do at Field Mill.

"I am absolutely loving it to be honest," Holmes told the Mansfield CHAD on Monday.

"I am having a great time. I love the training and I love the atmosphere in the changing room.

"Obviously there is a massive difference from non-League but I have settled in over three weeks of training here.

"It has given me the chance to see what professional football is like and now I am getting used to it.
