Where are the away fans housed these days ?

Same crap side stand.

For a beer, you stand in a cold flooded tent

thanks but not thanks

Last time I went we had the far end. I know that’s moved now but is the away end covered. I don’t fancy standing getting piss wet though when I’ve got a couple of hundred miles to ride

They have a little stand nearly half the length of the pitch. Two rows of seats and in front two rows of standing. The stand has about a 12 foot cover over it. When we got there last year the seat were wet through and we got wet sat in them, thankfully the game was abandoned at half time. It’s all crap for away supporters, and I wouldn’t want to go again.

Looks like it’s going to be decent weather for those deciding whether to go.

I predict a 2-1 win to us, scrappy game 1-1 till last minute winner from cook!

Coys 3 wins in a row Would make me believe we have turned a corner especially if we win against a decent forest green side.

[NorthLondonStag]

Salford City scout just tried to book my taxi driver. Was tempted to feed him some wrong information.

[MTFCMusings]

Sweeney, Macca, Rose out
Preston, Tomlinson, Hamilton in.

No 4-4-2 then.

[Sneag]

Looks like back to 5-3-2.

4-3-3

It may prove to be the right decision but it’s starting to feel like the cook signing was a Waste of time and money. If he can’t start today when will he? Players need a run of games to find form and a few starts, not the off 10 minutes - Khan being a prime example.

Anyway, hopefully Dempster has called it right regardless and we get 3 points!

[gazza1988]

4-4-1-1 with Khan behind Maynard? Or CJ behind/with Maynard in 4-4-2. Or 4-5-1 with Khan and CJ on the wings.

Find it odd he will swap back. Didn't Khan say he was happy to be back out wide?

Likely is classic 3-5-2. With our left winger at LWB and our LWB at CB. Our left winger behind Maynard. Ballsy move if so. Could easily backfire.

we have to start playing Cook, i’m thinking this is too defensive

[Cleveland_Stag]

Cook and Maynard were our main two signings in the summer, and yet they’ve STILL not started together! Today was a perfect opportunity to finally play them together (and finally give Cook his first league start) with Rose injured. Cook needs a few starts in a row to give him a chance to get going and to perhaps get some returns for the large of money we paid for him.

Disappointed that Dempsters not started them both together but hopefully I’ll be proven wrong and he’s made the right decision.

We've gone 1 up front with 3 strikers on the bench. Defensive minded with strong counter attackers. Clear it into space we've got a chance. Clear it within a 10 yards of a defender and weve got no hope of winning many headers to retain possession.

I'm on the fence until I start watching and see if we are going to take the game to them. If we aren't then most clearances will come straight back.

Defending corners, we've got Pearce and Preston. Who else can we rely on to get a good header on it? I hope we don't pack the box for defending corners again, there would be little to no point.

Couldn’t agree more. Incredible he’s not started a game yet considering the finances behind it - today was the perfect opportunity.

For the stags fans traveling, prepare to see us not have much of the ball.

I thought we might go for them after the last 2 results but not got much hope for a win now.

[MTFCMusings]

It's 4-3-3 or 4-1-4-1, whichever you choose.

Shaughnessy, Bishop and Tommo in the middle

Khan, Maynard and CJ up top.

A classic big/little strike partnership that Maynard and Cook would provide has the potential to be great in this division in my opinion.

2-0 Mansfield

Oh dear, Willem 'watch the game go by' Tomlinson

[my name is jonas]

Got a good feeling about today, 1 or 2-0 Maynard to bag. COYS

[I am Spartacus]

Rose out injured then play Cook. Last week the team was set up to be on the front foot and go at the opposition, today I am not so sure. With CJ in the starting line up are we relying on the counter attack? Has anyone at the ground heard as to why the line up, injury to Rose aside, has been so changed? Is a settled line up, whereby the team get to know each other and get minutes under the belt, so far fetched?


Still going for two nil to the Stags and hoping that JD has got it right.

Anyone worked the formation out yet?

[arsene wengers coat]

Anyone worked the formation out yet?

Says 433.

But likely to be 451 when we don't have the ball because it's Kahn and CJ up top/attacking out wide.

[BH_Stag]

Anyone worked the formation out yet?

Looks a 433 going forward but 451 defending (as they like to do). CJ playing on the right.

[gazza1988]

4-1-4-1. Shaughnessy seems to be playing behind tomlinson and Bishop. Khan on the left and CJ on the right.
