Won’t be easy as you say, they may be 17th but they have only won one less game than us.

Don't think it will be easy but hopefully bishop will be back in to sure up the midfield. I imagine flitcroft will drop white into defence and CJ to wing back. Walker and Ajose up front or Rose?

Be interesting where he plays Grant . People keep piping on that he's a winger but he prefers the number 10 roll . If he plays on the left as he did for County then Hamilton will go on the right which Imo is where he's not as good as the left .

2..2 . Walker and Mellis

In his first spell with County he played alot on the right as well so they would be able to interchange.

I can see us going with 3-5-2

Neither Atkinson or Khan pulled any trees so I can see 3 changes, Grant, Bishop and Adjose in, Khan, Atkinson and Preston out. White at CB and CJ at RWB. You can guess the rest.

One bonus to this is if it doesn't work we do not need to make subs to change our formation to a back 4.

CJ was better at wing back on Saturday. This is how I see it going too.

They haven't won away in any competition since September 8th (Lincoln) and they've only won two away in total.

Let's make a bit of noise tonight, it was almost eerily quiet on Saturday apart from groaning. Let's show our appreciation to the Radfords and also pull out this bit of gold from MTFCMusings:

Jorge grant is a stag
he loves the mansfield town
he came from Nottingham Forest, to send Notts county down.
he pulled up at the one call and this is what he said
hardy is a w@#ker with a big fat f***ing head.

Looking forward to tonight, I think it is important we get off to a good start, get the crowd behind them. We need to get back to playing decent football, hopefully that will be enough for the win.

It was quiet Saturday due to the performance, which was abysmal. If they Actually win battles I’m sure the fans will get behind them.

This is the ultimate Ollie Palmer goal in a 3-1 defeat of Bury (1m 30s). Drives into the box, stumbles, loses control of the ball, recovers the ball, drives on past 2/3 defenders and scores.

Like the team, would change the formation to a back four and have a midfield diamond with bish holding, grant in behind the front two, CJ left and mellis right.

i think the crowd will be below 4k tonight, its just how it goes for midweek fixtures. I have never known crowds to increase because of new signings either.
However, if they explode into the game tonight it may get a few extra in two or three games time.
Why do the two football teams I support always let me down.

Yes but there's always that thing when the bubble bursts on the surface and you think, 'Jesus that's one hell of a clucking stinker'.
