Stags scorers: Callum Lloyd, Simon Brown.
Att: 159

Report by Billy Bonsall
Stags completed there pre-season programme with there annual visit to Matlock Town, and came away with a entertaining performance under there belts in what is also traditionally a tough game.
Stags started brightly and Lloyd skilfully turned his man inside the box and slotted home after 12 minutes to give the Stags an early lead.
Helde and the trialist keeper Stevens then got into a mix up and the Matlock striker had a tap in to bring the sides level at the break.
The second half saw Stags push forward well and a Beardsley corner was headed home by Brown in the six yard box, before Matlock nicked another equaliser late on from a free kick which would have been the only worry on the night for Carlton Palmer with 2 sloppy goals conceded.
