The MOTM sponsors must be absolutely bladdered. Embarrassing.

McDonald had a very good game, even playing out of position, he hoovered up more loose balls in the middle of the park than any other player. Energised and looked for players in space.

We suggested the floodlights as they were brighter than most on the pitch.

That said man of the match came upstairs and said we should have won :lol:

Yeah I thought Gordon had a decent game to be fair.

Khan was our most dangerous player but no final ball, same as everyone else.

I agree to some extent. We should NOT have lost to that shower of Devonian manure, but somehow we managed it.

Gordon & Khan did okay. Macca MoM for me.

Possibly the worst game I've seen Mal have for Stags, but credit too him even when he's having a poor game, he doesn't hide and he still grafts for the team. I'll tale that from a 4th division player.

McDonald was outstanding, Gordon did well, Khan a good second half.

Sweeney had another shocker and the Leeds lad didn't look comfortable in a back three.

Can’t believe it’s the same Mal Benning as we were watching last season!

Very true WH1969,

Same applies to Preston and Seeney who had another shocker today.

Its funny how opinions differ, I thought Macca ran around a lot but had no end product whatsoever, Benning was abysmal, and Bishop looked like he had been on the lash all night, the worst game he has had in the amber shirt.

Sir Mal really needs to spend this week trying to deliver dead balls over the first defender, absolute shocker of a game yesterday

Let’s agree it was a tough game to select a man of the match. Gordon was a good outlet be not enough dangerous balls into the box. I like that Mal doesn’t hide like some players, you get a Paul Cox ‘honest’ display. Just wasn’t his best today.

Macdonald had a good one today, I always worry that he can be a headless chicken if we can’t keep hold of the ball.

Khan also looked good, a little style over substance but looked like the one who was going to create opportunities before he came off.

Mellis???? He won't even play him, he'd rather play a CH from Leeds or a RW in midfield, he really is the architect of his own downfall.

We thought DF was stubborn with his tactics and square peg policy, it's as though JD is even worse!!!

If all of the players tried as hard as Macca and Danny, we`d be top of the league! Mellis is a problem (waiting to happen)!

Once again a Stags fan fed years of mediocrity is happy with work rate over any semblance of footballing ability.
I wonder where Fraser MacLachan is nowadays :roll: :roll:

Khan by a mile... he was the only one with any vision ... big mistake in taking him off.

I thought the moment where he subbed Khan was the last straw for fans wanting to give him more time.
