Whats next will we be setting up a football shop in Chesterfield to encourage more support as Forest will have snared the Mansfield catchment area.
Notts County fans can say they have it bad with them being over the trent but we also have our problems.

I think the club shop in Four Seasons would come down to finance vs footfall. It’s not cheap to rent a unit in the Four Seasons and how much money would we actually make from it?

However , it's clear to see throughout history children as a majority follow top flight teams and would rather wear shirts of clubs that they are never likely to visit .You always see this in children's football ,Mansfield Town shirts occasionally being flashed by one or two kids while being blocked out with Liverpool,Man City and Chelsea shirts.
A shop in the Town centre given the current climate would be a tough task to make it viable.I think like someone previously mentioned it would need to be in partnership with an existing business.

There I was expecting to read about a link between Frankie Valley’s former backing group and Mansfield Town when lo and behold it was another gripe about our town centre.

I’ve heard the town has had success of a major event today thanks to our very own Old Ram Stag?

Assume as you talking in code that your referring to second gear? If so well done old ram stag.
Already read why but big shame it wasn't advertised.

Correct. Yes agree re the advertising! Could have made a big event out of it which could have been extra cash for the town centre businesses
