It'll need a few meetings between our respective teams without incident before the fixture isn't classed as being problematic.

Part of the rationale will be previous history between the clubs.
The cup game earlier in the season won't really be used as a yardstick of progress given the fact it was the pizza trophy and attendance was low.

We've had history with many clubs in the past which would instantly cause panic upon the announcement of the sessions fixtures but time is a healer.

Think Burton Albion.  If we played them tomorrow there'd be no real issue anymore but that wasn't always the case.
Lincoln games started to lose the edge they had, same with Scunny.
A lot depends on what's at stake at the time of the game too.  

I hope that the game passes without incident at the game but more importantly away from the ground which is where most of the issues arise.  

When was the last time there was any trouble between us and Mansfield? Trying to think of anything happening in any of the ones I've been to and drawing a blank.

I initially thought that Forest might have had a high profile game at home but they are away at Newcastle,Notts are at home to Donny so it just seems like Mansfield’s rozzers want a early finish to get a Boxing Day pint

Hi Chalky ,tweet foing the rounds saying you're interested in Jamie Jellis of Tamworth..v good young player, v. Strong n skilful midfielder. Aylesbury lad who I had the pleasure of watching for the ( not so) mighty Ducks.made his debut at 16, and immediately looked good enough n strong enough for mens football. Nice lad as well  hope you get him, n that he does really well

Yeah there’s been interest by Notts but I think that Wycombe and Peterborough are also looking at him,I think that we are looking into strengthning our squad for the future rather than chuck him in the first squad the week after signing (should he sign of course)
The trouble with rumours is that they are just that,rumours but he is our kind of player,if Football Radar take an interest then there’s something in it
