    Our passing let’s us down. Give it away far too often

    Plus what they are doing is matching us up man for man when we have the ball rather than marking space like other teams do so when one of our players has the ball the opposition player rushes to them.

    What we need is more composure on the ball and trust in the passing. We'll create chances if they keep pressing and we'll pass through them.

    Orient came for a point. Mansfield have been on the front foot from the start.

    I think poor is hard... Sloppy certainly in possession but when we have retained and moved, we have looked decent enough.

    Tell u what FB, that defence certainly has not been poor

    Hopefully, but cannot see us getting into top 3, there is no way we will catch Cheltenham and Cambridge, 7th would do me, and that would be a brilliant achievement for Trueman & Sellars.

    Mansfield have done well tbh.

    Them and Exeter are the better teams we've played since T&S took over.

    Well, worst performance for ages but if you have a goal scorer you have a chance.

    Well played Mansfield.

    Win ugly!
    They had ONE shot on goal and one flashing header.
    Stifled us in the middle
    Just like Orient
    We win ugly.

    Our back four were excellent tonight, especially the O'connors and Canavan.

    7 wins out of last 8. Amazing run. Can’t believe it’s the same season as the team we saw in November.

    Need to hold our nerve and keep passing not resort to hoofing and then we'll create chances.

    We still seem to be giving free kicks away around the box. Something we need to address before the inevitable happens.

    Other than the two attempts mentioned I NEVER felt they were a goal threat. Hard to explain when they went forward more than us and stifled the middle, but for them it petered out to nothingness.
