Our woeful 120 year history would kinda back this up

Hawkridge had five appearances in a Mansfield shirt, where he successfully spent that entire period avoiding the ball, as if it had Ebola. I wouldn't know him if he knocked on my front door, stood in the porch and said "Hi, my name is Terry Hawkridge, formerly of Mansfield Town."

Is Diamond a bit of a geezer?

Matt Green will score goals in the right side, in this division, 15-20 goals next season. He's still got pace, he's as fit as anyone at this level and works incredibly hard. We should have at least offered him a reduced deal, in my opinion. He hasn't had the best of seasons in front of goal but...

This decision is a bit like sitting to the table, listening to your parents talking about their day at work, whilst knowing that you have mountains of homework to do afterwards. Your teenage hormones are contemplating the least painful way to commit suicide, until you unwittingly pop a sprout in...

With a budget - and he'll get one next season - he'll achieve. Without a budget I don't think he'd be any better than most Division 4 managers. He's slaughtered his predecessor recently, despite Murray not being provided the budget that Evans will get. He famously bought up the best talent in...

And,....at the last moment,.....the firework falls over and fizzles out before everyone goes home.

Dempster was underrated at Stags but was integral in helping get us promoted out of non-league. He seems to be building himself a very favourable reputation as a youth coach. Possibly in line for bigger future things. Game will be 0-0 duffer.

Who will talkSPORT use when they need to chat to someone for thirty seconds about the lower leagues now? (Quickly skipping by, revealing a scarce knowledge of anything other than the top 6 of the Prem....and West Ham).

Odd fact alert - I used to play for a roller hockey team as a teenager, in the 80s, called Mansfield Massive!

Well, MTFC syndrome means we'll lose to Luton on Monday, as you know.

Where are you likely to be playing next season Tommy, I'd heard that Cov were contemplating a move to the rugby stadium?

Oi! Less of the old; middle-age is the new prime - the bald head, grey chin and extra inch around the waist is for disguise purposes.

I give a shit about the result. I want us to win every game. Win today and we can still make the play off, lose and we're screwed. Not sure why any of us would want us not to win.

We're okay but completely toothless going forward. Today's performance was the default one which we roll up most weeks. Anyway, congratulations on your promotion fella, consistency has done the job for you. Personally hoping that its not over a decade til we have a derby again.

I've now seen the same performance so many times this season that I've booked an appointment at the quacks to get some antibiotics for it. Roll on May. Again.

I don't think we'll sell over 1000. Last Saturdays result has drawn in a 'seasons gone' mentality amongst our lot. Shame, as a win would have guaranteed a good healthy away following. We have a habit of playing sides on the day that they secure promotion. At least a defeat ought to make getting...

Goalies: Jenson - Keep as coach/back-up Shearer - Shift (past it) Defenders: Benning - Keep Pearce - Keep Collins - Keep Bennett - Keep Taft - Shift (too injury prone) Midfield: Hamilton - Shift (inconsistent) Byrom* - Keep McGuire - Shift (not good enough) McDonald* - Keep Potter* - Unsure...

Exeter are a good side, I can see them winning the play offs, as they're as good a team as we've had up at Field Mill this season. They look very fit and organised and always look likely to score goals. Us? We're still not quite the finished article, we're a goalscorer away from being amongst...

This is a game that could go one of three ways.
