I was also surprised at the team formation. It should have given us more midfield domination but it didn't. Once Mansfield's tall centre back had to leave the field, they had no-one to cope with Paul Mullin's threat in the air and it was unfortunate that we did not give him more quality crosses such as the gem that led to the goal. I'm sure that Leam Richardson would have been more effective than Graham Branch. I might have missed it but no-one seems to have mentioned Mark Roberts in this thread - I cannot recall anything getting past him in the air or on the ground. Paul Carden looked unfit, as did two other Stanley players. As has already been said, Richardson for Branch, Boco for Williams - and we have the making of a good team.
