Stags Match Thread

We got there for second half. Great result Mansfield caused us problems without having many shots on our goal. We saw last 10 minutes out well again. It's a familiar pattern how in tight games we are grinding out wins. Thought Richards-everton's strength was useful at the back. Mcconville and kee kept hold of ball late on well as well. Whole team kept it shape well. Mansfield fans kicked off outside abit unnecessary.

Safe on the coach home now, got there in time to see all second half & was well worth the 5 hour journey to witness those scenes both after the goal & at the final whistle.
Just hope it doesn't take same time to get home, there's a drink with my name on it waiting in the Crown :D
Well played lads, bloody brilliant!! :dancedog:

That'll be a well deserved three pints Accymad, celebrating a well deserved 3 points from the on-field team :D
 
If my maths is right, 11 points gets us up automatically .... Exeter can only get 87, Coventry 86, Notts County 85, Lincoln 85, Mansfield 84, Swindon 82 and Carlisle 78 ...... No one else can catch us whatever happens.

16 points guarantees the title

Blooming 'eck. Keep the Flippin' Faith! :D
 
Even more delighted to read (on the Sky site, so don't blame me if incorrect) that Mansfield have failed to beat Stanley in 14 attempts!
What a result, what a team!
 
Had to go away on a friends social weekend do in sunny Cleveleys. Followed the match on BBC live feed. Stanley are just amazing continuing this winning run. ON STANLEY ON. :jimbo::jimbo:

Yes that happened however in the great scheme of things not a hanging offence but credit to the stewards they were not heavy handed,dealt with the situation and were a breath of fresh air compared to the knuckle scrapers that we've had to endure there on previous visits
 
The stewards were good lads.
When it got very heated outside they let me take Jordan’s family including ladies round to the players entrance by walking round the pitch.
Not sure the trouble causers we’re actually at the game.
Hope the Accy fan with the nasty thumb dislocation is ok.
 
As for the match..... I didn’t enjoy it that much. I felt nervous throughout as soon as they had a player sent off. It suddenly became ours to chuck away.

Thought we were very poor in the first half and then much better second. Yet again, though, we do seem to always manage to be tighter as a team than the opposition. Always just good enough. Coleman must take massive credit for this. A master strategist.

A few notable mentions:
Scott Brown - again, making a big difference with his energy.
Callum Johnson - I really like him. Each game he seems to improve. He’s starting to get past defenders more easily.
Big Ben - looked shaky and out of position first half, much better second. Can’t have been an easy game for him.
Jimmy Dunne - one day he’s going to start scoring loads of goals from corners. At the moment he’s frustratingly unable to apply the killer touch. Thank god Seamus took the one in the 60th min.

Finally, they should have been down to 9 men. The blatant arm in Jackson’s face when he was racing clean through was obvious to all but ref and linesman.
 
How you can have notable mentions and not put Hughes on the list is beyond me.
He was immense yesterday against another centre forward adept at using a crafty elbow (ask Seamus another shiner).
