Mansfield are not the new Real Madrid . No wins in three away . Play offs for them if they improve their finishing


To be fair, they had two of their forwards in defence in the second half!  

I'm guessing it was due to injuries but they started the game with Jordan Bowery at right-back and Lucas Akins ahead of him.  Second half Akins dropped back with Bowery partnering Aden Flint at centre-back.

Bowery especially looked like he had played there all his life.

It helped that he had absolutely nothing to do. Surely it would have been worth putting Vernam on down the left channel up against Akins & Bowery?

There was a gaping weakness and we didn’t even attempt to exploit it.

Think you’re assuming that Vernam would take his full back on? Great idea but so far he just runs towards his marker stops and lays it off!!

Hoping when Khan returns we might see someone with a bit of pace who is willing to risk losing the ball in his attempt to create more and better goal scoring opportunities.
