I was behind the other goal on a freebie and the GTFC fans sounded great all night. Although who were the 4 weirdos who got their torch out around the hour mark?      Great save by their keeper from Waterfall's header and I'll give him the benefit of the doubt on his other one and say the defender did just enough!

First half very promising, plenty of energy and movement and looking to use Emmanuel who was a willing outlet.

As energy levels dropped, movement and momentum were lost and Emmanuel lacked support or an accurate pass. Changes could perhaps have been made sooner and I thought Morris had a poor second half.

Crocombe really does seem to have a problem with his kicking now. Several times in recent games he has found the stands or belted the ball straight down the middle to their centre halves or goalkeeper. Specsavers?

Referee had a terrible second half but all in all an entertaining nil nil.

Surprised no one has mentioned Morris, I’m afraid I just don’t get what he gives to the team. So many loose passes and not the drive/tenacity of Clifton or Green., the latter of those was a particularly big miss.


Batch, Crombie, Moore K, Wiggington, Cumming, Waters, Bonnyman, Ford, Emson, Drinkell, Whymark. Love you all, You are the reason I'm on here. You've had help from Todd, Handyside, Futcher P, Groves, Mendonca, Macca etc etc etc. Up The Mariners!!!!!!!!!

Thought off the ball him and Holohan had really good games. It was the opposite every time they won the ball back though - their passing accuracy was awful and the primary reason why we barely created anything in the second half.

This. A number of times holohan won a contested ball, shielded it from the Mansfield player well with his body and passed back for one of ours, so we gained possession. However, when on the ball trying to go forward hisbpassing  was very off.

I thought Morris was one of our best players and his off-the-ball work can go under the radar, especially compared to Green who's physicality makes his work more obvious. Sure he misplaced some passes but second half our movement was much poorer which makes it hard for the centre mids.

I’m a big fan of Holohan but I could see by his body language that he was disappointed with his performance last night, maybe fatigue I don’t know but some of his passing was awful although he was not afraid to put his foot in when it mattered and not afraid to have a shot on goal.


Dead Eye Dobbin stood motionless waiting, waiting, waiting for the ball to arrive. Back came the right foot, Down came the right foot, Bang ! Headlines around the world as the ball flew into the very top right hand corner of the goal.( Jim Dobbin scoring in the 89th minute for Town against Newcastle United away 24/10/1992 )

Quoted from 800
I received a text from a Mansfield supporter at half-time and he reckoned we should have been six up.

Great performance in the first half but Mansfield had the better of the second.

Tremendous atmosphere. It only went a little quiet in the last ten minutes but what a racket!

I really enjoyed that game. It was entertaining for a goalless draw. I've become friends with quite a few Stags fans over the last few years and had the benefit of their company before the game.

Disappointed that they don't do programmes but I did get plenty of team sheets if anyone is a collector and wants one. Free of course. I've passed a few on already.


Hi you got any teamsheets left? thanks.
