Adams commented he thought it was a risk worth taking as he is a quality player when fit, the clue is in the word risk, unfortunately in our case it didn't pay off, my point remains not many bellyaching at the start of the season when they were a good pairing.

 

Yer, apparently there was some problem with his email and it was messing up all his emails coming in and Hughes' son (his agent) sent an initial email and it went to Ryan's junk folder.

 

The truth hurts Bronco.

 

I thought there would be some noise from our fans today with MH coming in but there was very little in terms of support from the stands compared to Mansfield.
I'm sure people will say 'what's there to shout about?' But I was hoping for something. We have to do better ourselves. It might as well have been a home game for the stags.
Yes we can't create decent chances and yes they have mistakes in them, but if we 14000 home supporters get outsung for the entire afternoon by 2000 even having a new manager of MH's calibre then perhaps it's not all everyone else's fault

Just goes to show fans differ on their opinions, listen to Mark Hughes post match comment and he points out what great support he and his team got, something he'd missed whilst out of the game.

 

Of course I care. I want the best for the club. Which is why it hurts to see it run into the ground.

 

Its pretty much all we have left.

'Its shit. Its sustainable. And its THAT Mark Hughes'

 

Great away following but christ how quiet were they until they scored. To be fair they were rocking VP by the end of the game.

 

Good on em. Whens the last time we took 2k fans away and they were rewarded with a win....?

 

Yes, three times I think it was!!!

 

That's my take on things.

 

I honestly thought once Spakie made his first sub Cooke for Daly we started to get at Mansfield and more so when both Evans and Lavaty came on.
Mansfield were a well drilled side and you can see why Clough has turned their season around from their very poor start overall I thought there was little in it a good finish by Oates and more than their share of luck for their second, as we've discussed in the past possession means little but I thought today's stats were about right, all about putting your chances away they did we didn't.

 

Now admit it, don't you feel slightly silly for being at all nervous at the idea of coming here and taking away a win....? And as for worrying about Cook bullying your Centre Backs, the only person he's been bullying lately is the counter staff at Greggs

 

I no longer identify as plastic, I'll have you know.

 

Gotta say impressed with you guys today. Organised, gritty, love a bit of the rough stuff, defensively sound and a nice expansive play. Thoroughly deserved win.

Oates was a bit of quality today but I was taken by Stephen Quinn. Bit of oomph.

 

The biggest disappointment for me was that they had a striker at full-back and we didn't target him!

 

That is no surprise at all. You seem very confused.

 

Let us know how the curry goes Staggo

 

Like him they aren’t supporters.
