Would he have plastered it all over linked in if the numbers had got worse?

 

Of course it does. If they didn't think there was mitigating circumstances they wouldn't have given him a new contract.
For the last 5/6 seasons, Mansfield have a decent budget in League 2 and the brief is always to get promoted.

 

And it’s failed every time. Any managers brief is to get promoted, spending as little money as possible. That’s hardly novel Hudders

11 consecutive seasons in L2 ?

Nigel will talk you through all the injuries they had.
I think they've had a couple who will miss most of 23/24 the injuries were that bad.

 

So MH is to blame then.

 

Partly yes, but we lost both Walker and Osedebe to long term injuries in the first game of the season and that's just bad luck and nothing anyone could have forseen.

 

Sure, if we can afford it.

 

A team with a squad as big as ours should have been able to cope. As it is, a manager's negative tactics denied us a Wembley visit.we probably weren't as bad as some make out.

 

Young was on loan Periara and Nevers are much happier on the right and Eisa was hardly fit which only left Odesebe who only uses his left foot for standing on. We were unbalanced

 

Really hope that A.G. rejects his contract offer.
A midfield of him and R.S. would push me over the edge.

 

I'm hoping lads like Ridehalgh and Gilliead are squad members next season.

It makes sense to keep them if they are, as recruiting reliable players for the bench is harder than it looks.

We've had a bunch of squad players this season, and so many have looked incapable.

Ridehalgh has spent time as number 2 and come back strong - Gilliead has played 50 times, so Hughes might see him as a useful utility midfielder... but I hope in both cases we sign very strong competition for places.

 

A reliable, non productive servant though.
Athletes are as fit as fiddles but, they'd be useless as footballers, much like A.G.
