Need to get back to winning ways and try and get some momentum after a crazy period of postponements.
Back to 4231 for me with Cook up front, Walker behind and Smallwood and Clayton as the deeper CMs. The wide areas is the biggest dilemma, not sure what the situation is with Banks and Chapman but would be good to get them back into the team. So far I’ve been pretty underwhelmed with Costelloe.Bronco, FrenchBantam, Onside and 1 other person like this. -

Nevers and Banks for me and back to 4-2-3-1.
That formation at Mansfield against how they play was one of our best performances of the season.Stoneski, Kevin1954, Bronco and 1 other person like this. -
On the plus side, Clayton was a step up on Smallwood - exactly what we’ve missed. Gillead has his game of the season.
Biggest concern is we still don’t look threatening enough up top.Stop hovering to collapse... Click to collapse... Hover to expand... Click to expand...Bigrod, Craven Koppite, CRASS and 1 other person like this. -

With the amount of headers won in our box by Mansfield in the last 15 minutes Hughes should have brought Stubbs on to protect the 3 points , poor management.

Other results have gone favourably for us. So frustrating we never seem to capitalise on that when it happens.
How many points is that we've dropped now at home from winning positions? Must be getting close to 8 or 9 now.Onside, borderlescott, Inspector and 1 other person like this. -

Yet another 2 points dropped.
Inevitable equaliser. Groundhog day.
Dominated the game for 70 mins with some really good positive play, then we suddenly looked tired.
Lack of subs has cost us today and MH should be looking into the mirror as to why he didn't use more subs to put some pressure on them at the back for the last 20 or so. Oliver and Derbyshire should have been given a shot up top.
Yet another Saturday night ruined by lack of imagination by the manager.
Gilliead arguably had his best game for the club. Clayton was also a class above calm and always probing forward passes. Walker was effective in spells.Stop hovering to collapse...

Stockport were and are no better than Mansfield and definitely no better than us (I think we’re the best of the three).
He we played like we did today, with some positive intent, at Stockport then fans would be more positive about that result.
I’ve criticised us in recent weeks, including Stockport, but late shortcomings aside (again), I thought we put a good show on today.
A positive for me is that, yes we were under pressure, but at least we didn’t concede whilst sitting back putting on a negative cautious showingInspector, Rogered Tart, vladimir and 1 other person like this. -

I thought yesterday was a good game both teams putting a lot of effort in and a decent referee. Gilliead playing as captain made a great start and Cook just showing what a striker he his. Unfortunately maybe due to lack of fitness and changes in the second half we let it slip away . Chapman not passing the ball from his break late on cost us would have been 2-0 . We need to keep the faith it’s going to be long season .

How many times have we seen this already this season. We fail to stop the cross and concede a free header at the far post. I don't care how good our fullbacks are going forwards if they can't do their job in defence.

Overall after yesterday's performance I feel more positive about our chances than I did before kick off. Clayton looks like a massive boost for us. Like others have said he could be the perfect bit of recruitment.

Clayton , excellent game along with Gilly. East was the breath of fresh air I applauded before kick off.
The second half when they went 3-5-1-1 killed our midfield by smothering it with bodies.
Like all the teams we have seen recently, I thought Mansfield were average at best.
We should have honestly had three before half time, Walker unlucky, and Eisa should have buried his chance.Budgie, Keefly Bantam, Onside and 1 other person like this.
