One out one in won’t cut it come Jan. More likely 8 out eight in. Let’s hope we hang on to Cartwright because he’s done well irrespective.

Because he’s actually playing this game on another planet 😂

It’s little more than the fact that Mansfield have spent more money on better players than we have so they can compete for promotion. Standout facts for today, and the contrast between them and us most seen here:

They have players who can control the ball consistently.
They have players who will finish not squander chances.
They have physicality and athleticism.
They can pass and move with precision and intent.
They have excellent defenders and keeper.


What’s obvious really is that we will need to invest more money and more acumen/astuteness on better players if we want to get in the picture, and do little more than make up the numbers or tangle with relegation. Now, I’m not saying our budget is bottom 6 - I have no information or any reason to think it is, but I’d bet that it’s not close to most of those who are competing. Think Mansfield have set their stall out and have a clear statement of intent.
What’s most disappointing, for me, is that we might have been satisfied, to some extent, with a season of ‘consolidation’ at the very least. That’s top half. You couldn’t say that we’re on track with that.

Town look positively non-league compared to Mansfield, they should be about 7-0 up

John Tondeur has only just said "Town are looking at 6's and 7's as to their positioning now"

Possibly should have said it about 60 minutes ago

This game more than any recently has shown how far behind we are in terms of quality.

We need six or seven players in with more quality than we currently have because what we have now its clear to see they don't have the quality needed to even avoid relegation.

If some ain't shipped out and some come in then we could well be in big trouble .

Mansfield up to 34 shots can’t remember us ever having that number against us before.
