Grant for me, Offers more of a goal threat than Mellis

agree 100% however if we can see it why can’t the manager ?

[cassellswasmagic]

Grant does offer more going forward and neither offers much going the other way. Mellis and Grant can’t play in the same team, in the same way Gerrard and Lampard couldn’t imo. England never looked that great with them both in the team. The Stags don’t look good with both Grant and Mellis together either. Bishop, Tomlinson & Grant in Midfield for me. Got to find that correct balance, we aren’t far off, just a few sticking points of late.

Grants dead ball delivery is quality and that reason keeps him in the team for me.

Have people seen our youth team play? They are kids... and when you compare them to lads like Elsnik who plays in Premier League 2, who is at league one/two level you're expecting our lot to go straight into League two? It's a massive step for them.

They are no way near ready for the physical league were in. Jordan Graham looks quality but seems to lack that strength and power at the minute.

They will play when they're ready and that's down to the manager.

If we're 3-0 up then yeah, bring one on. I trust DF is the right man to bring them through.

Think you had better tell Southgate and ole Gunnar before they really mess up by playing young`uns

Strange as to how most of us all planning around the play offs now
Think game up on third and shame as we were doing so well but sadly this is the time to be consistent and Lincoln showing how it is done.
Not sure again what's gone wrong but hey ho if we have to do it all again it will be tough but guess we will have to but a decent striker must be top of the shopping list before anything else if we are to go again next season for the promised land of League 1.
Sorry JR that your bank account will be in play next season yet again!!

[daddycool]

It will be two decent strikers , because we have not got one for next season. Walker will have gone back .
Danny has struggled since his burst in the first half of last season
Davies is a sick note .
Khan ?
CJ is not a natural striker
Ajose will have gone back.
That leaves ?

[west country stag]

Ajose is a poor excuse for a striker ... sunday league at best !

[tillydog123]

Yes Daddy probably 2 and sorry Ajose not turned out the best as he looked sharp and seems very fit when he first came here but sadly like many of the strikers apart from maybe Walker slightly none are prolific.

Different class there though...

[8th Notts]

I can see both bury and mk Dons dropping points on saturday

[Spiritater]

Sadly I can also see us dropping points too.

[Richard Cranium]

Stage win, Forest Green win back in the play offs and half this board to lose its internet connection for a week

[Richard Cranium]

Oh

[adamstag]

Well we could be 5th on Tuesday night

We must, absolutely must pick up a bare minimum of 4 from Cambridge and Northampton

[bellwhiff]

This thread is great. It just shows the lack of testicular fortitude.

[Sandy Pate Best Stag]

The next 5 games are all winnable and we should get a minimum of 13 points. Even if we draw two of those games we will get 11 which will put us on 80. Four wins and one defeat would put us on 81.

That should leave us only needing to avoid defeat at MK to go up automatically and we could be in a position of not needing anything out of the game. This is still in our own hands and the win yesterday should boost the team's confidence, bringing back the belief that has been missing recently.

Get behind the boys and let's get up there.
