Could always go tomorrow night and boost the away to support...then again you could stay in, stick pins in your eyes whilst playing hand chicken with a machete...
I don't think so, They have applied to the EFL for permission to call off the game and that has been granted so I don't think we would have had a say in the decision to be honest.

Feel bad for those who've already sorted travel, but might not be such a bad thing given our injuries and players coming back to fitness. May see a stronger team out against Doncaster in the unspeakable trophy as a consequence.
give us another week to get players fit and back in full training (should be of benefit to fox,fameweo, cook and cardwell i think) plus it means davis will be another week closer to a return, so not all bad

Evening kick offs are shown on i-follow, aren't they?
Yeah, all evening games are shown on iFollow it's just the ones on Saturday afternoon's that usually can't, although there seems to be a different rule when it's an international break.

Just a thought. It would be interesting if all clubs were forced to fulfil fixtures during international weeks, including PL clubs. We might see some fascinating matches with players whose names we can pronounce, and some young English players could get a first team game.

I thought the rule was more than three players on international call before a game could be cancelled? I seem to remember us having to play Wolves minus Barnard, Coyne and someone else on international duty
The international break has been planned for a long time and squads know for a while but when we were losing 6 games on the trot there was no request from Mansfield to postpone the game.
Now we've won 2 on the trot, all of a sudden they want to call the game off!

I agree - my thoughts are Embleton is worth more to us in a dynamic midfield pairing with Clifton, than any of their dubious internationals is to them.
My first thought was - I'm glad the game is off because Embleton will be missing: - but now I'm thinking - Mansfield are frightened of Town's new team energy.
Wouldn't surprise me if Mansfield want to play us when Embleton's loan period has expired.

A week and a half without a game (some would say two) what the hell are we gonna talk about?
Some could always refer back to old threads and call fck out of Woolford,Macca,,J.S.F.,Collins,Hooper,Rose,Welsh,Peaks Parkway,---oh I forgot,we've won our last 2 matches.

I believe cricket just carries on with there fixtures when test matches are on, tough if you have internationals missing, but it would give fringe players, even under 23's a chance.
All a bit dubious on Mansfield's part I think -they would have been well aware of the international fixtures for this weekend and the likelihood of their players being called up. Yet they send 1600 tickets for GTFC to sell in advance and then postpone after a week of sales.
I noticed that on the Mansfield Town website that there was no mention of tickets going on sale for their own supporters for this fixture.
I know that we are entitled to refunds but I suspect most Grimsby fans will hold on to their tickets until the rearranged date is announced. All a bit fishy!!!

Difference being that the England cricketers salaries are paid by the ECB.
They have form for this sort of thing. I remember in non-league we were due to play them between Xmas and New Year and they got the game called off on the morning claiming the pitch wasn't playable despite games at Chesterfield (Saltergate 15 miles away) and one of the Nottingham teams going ahead in decent conditions. There was some talk of them watering the pitch although that was never obviously substantiated. The fact they were playing Liverpool in the cup the next weekend was a mere coincidence...
I have an inferiority complex-It's not a very good one though.
It's the same rules for everybody and it's been 3 players for as long as I can remember.
Whilst it does seem a bit dubious with the timing, weren't the squads only announced at the end of last week? They can't appeal to call off a game before they know if the 3 players are missing or not.
Assume Mansfield don't care about the Checkatrade trophy as they haven't cancelled tonight's game against Wolves U21's, probably using the squad system tonight.
In today's Telegraph MJ admits the Mansfield postponement is probably a blessing in disguise for us as we have got about 13 injured players at the moment including illness and players carrying knocks.
