Things are ticking along nicely for Nigel Clough’s men as the season begins with a point on the road and a comfortable cup win at home – but can the Stags maintain their rhythm and turn the early optimistic hope, into something more fruitful.  Tonight we’ll reflect on the opening day at Crewe, as the Stags surrender a two-goal lead, lose a man and play until gone-midnight – OK slight exaggera...

As the rain fell to mask our disappointment at last weekend’s typical defeat at the hands of Harrogate, we thought our chances were slim – but thanks to a very late Crewe penalty last night, the Stags have not one but THREE – mathematical chances to finish in the play-offs after all!  But, being mathematical equations means it’s not just as simple as winning – Clough’s men need to rely on ONE...

When the Stags recorded a win at Swindon last Friday, we all thought the Easter weekend would propel and perhaps even solidify us in the play-offs, but those pesky Easter Gremlins ruined our plans with a 1-1 draw against the leagues bottom side leaving us in limbo. With six games now to go, the Stags are again on the outside looking in – a point off of the play-offs but with a vital game in hand,...

Perception is a funny thing, like – is it two solid clean sheets at home, or two wasted opportunities to get a tighter grip on a play-off place? Is it, unbeaten in three, or without a win in four? After two dull 0-0 draws, we’re all a bit in limbo, which with nine games to go – isn’t great!  Tonight we reflect on the previous two games, praise James Gale, take an in depth look at our run...

Nigel Clough was damned if he did & damned if he didn't on Tuesday, as pesky injuries and the seasonal Stephen Quinn red card saw Stags beaten by play-off rivals Northampton Town.  BUT, was it just plain bad luck or is there something more concerning to address, as the rotten stench of desperation lingers!  As always we welcome your comments, questions & opinions in the live feed...
