But then nothing changed in the second half, until it was way too late.

Thought (for once) Brett Ormerod summed it up well after the game - Stanley tried to play “off the cuff” whereas Mansfield played to a plan.

Such a massive difference and disappointment from Tuesday night’s performance.
Substitute,s 1st 67 mins enforced due to knock, 2nd 77 mins Adeyoin for Coyle apart from the obvious why take a central midfielder off for a " striker" why not one of the attacking midfielder,s and go 2 upfront 3rd and 4th at 3-0 nil down 90+3 minutes pathetic really unless John isn't has tactically nous has some fellow manager,s or he thinks the subs aren't really up to it
