    I watched Tuesday's game and he was impressive, not headline grabbing but always seemed to be keeping things ticking over, finding good short passes.

    Been coming. Mansfield look dangerous, RoD looks a liability (goal not his fault) and they're clearly targeting FCD. Its all down their left.

    Mansfield look a good side. They've improved markedly from last season. We've struggled to get any real possession, hopefully we pick up a bit second half.

    Mansfield been the better team but not to much in it, quite a scrappy game and we’ve lacked composure on the ball so far. Hopefully an improved second half, a points not bad here. Hawkins has looked a threat since he stopped throwing himself to the floor early on.

    I told everyone on here it will be a our biggest test of the season so far.

    However, because its me people want to kick off and not take it. I know my stuff.

    Am I the only one that thought FCD's challenge, which wasn't even penalised by the ref, was a potential red card challenge?

    Exeter beating Bristol Rovers 4-0 at half time. Maybe puts our opening day 0-0 away into some context.

    Nothing sticking without angol and right sided defending woeful again. However still in it. Let's see what, if any, changes for second half.

    In real time yes. Replay showed he won the ball.

    The two Mansfield commentators though so. Our two thought it was a fair challenge, as did the ref. Looked like he played the ball cleanly to me. But we've seen them given.

    What’s up with our support , sounds really quiet now??

    Fair enough at 1-1 so far but we need it on the deck.

    Od dropping the cross eek!

    Their claim od a pen …he should have got booked!

    Songo power away and flick after 21 , excellent

    Anyone think this Mansfield side is a carbon copy of the Burton team that climbed the leagues.

    You don’t get in the side if you aren’t 6’3 or less?

    All to play for but City fans should be shouting the place down!!

    I've been impressed with Mansfield. Similar sort of approach to what we have at home. We need to dig in, battle, and make the most of our opportunities to break. A point here would be a very good point, I can see these being up around the top 3.
