I honestly believe that John Radford is on the verge of creating something quite amazing for the club and town. This is the best collection of footballers I have seen represent Mansfield Town since I started watching g this team in 1974. These players do not know when they are beaten. I think if we do go up this season, the club will not want to put their feet up and light a cigar - they will be going full in for consecutive promotions. What an amazing time to be a Mansfield Town supporter.

If only the town realised that and began to really back the club eh!

You could argue that 'tater is right and the town has always been apathetic, or you could argue that he's wrong and that our gates are what you'd expect from one of the smallest towns in England with a league club.

He's wrong on this, always has been.

What you could argue is Mansfield folk aren’t exactly made of money, and never have been. Without the member card offer the average attendance would be hundreds lower too. At £11 to watch a game it’s brought a lot more fans in. This must be one of the best offers in football, so well done JR. We are what we are as a town, hard working, but below average paid compared to a lot of other places in England. The crowds will only increase significantly with the sniff of the championship beckoning imo.
