I saw Graham Smythe say in the DT that next year one of the things needed was "to finish higher than the Stags next year"

How many of you realistically think that you'll be finishing higher than Mansfield next season?

Discuss.

[Spire-Heights]

You'll be fighting for promotion to championship whilst we get relegated to conference. Let's see what happens. Anything better than this is a bonus. If you are still below us this time next year, you've failed dramatically.

[Exharboroughspireite]

I couldn't care less to be honest. We've got bigger problems than the one that the DT refers to.

With our current owner, and board, and not forgetting the current manager, with next years budget cuts, I can't see us finishing above ANY team in the league.
National League is where we're heading! Make no mistake about that.
We've already been turned over comprehensively by 3 L2 teams this year alone.
Next year won't be pretty. People think this season has been bad....
You reap what you sow!!!!

Fake news. It's Smyth.

I'd expect you to go up, possibly via the play offs. Jabba seems to excel in play off games.
We are in trouble, we are in a dangerous situation.
It's almost a mixture of Darren Brown and Kieth Haslam at the helm, with a huge sprinkling of Carlton Palmer. And that's the first course.
Throw in Dave Allens Yorkshire intransigence for a main, and by the time your looking at the sweet menu, then it's an upside down cake with us firmly on the bottom.
It may get worse though. Allen may have someone lined up with a nature to ask few questions who may pick up the tab for the meal, and he probably isn't advertising morning fresh.

I think you'll stay in mid table obscurity - my reasons no ferker has a clue what squad we'll each have so I'm hedging my bets.

Oh and what a daft frigging question.

Dya know what TBT i'm not laughing anymore. When these people do this to the proud supporters it's an abomination. I hope the right thinking Spires can now understand what happened to us at Mansfield under Haslam.

Rivalry yes but this is disgusting whats happening- as it was before with us.

My sympathies . Hands over the M1 Together.

[ash_cfc]

Considering everything that is happening at CFC, not finishing above us next season will be more embarrassing than finishing below us for the last 25 years!

[Wooly]

you have no chance of finishing above us next year Ash

CFC is a basket case.

Im not even gloating.

[RuislipSpire]

We'll probably struggle in League 2 next season but at least we're guaranteed 6 points and a healthy goal difference!

Chesterfield 10 Mansfield 0
Mansfield 0 Chesterfield 10

League Two is rubbish though. We could easily get promoted without being any good.

We won't be any good
We won't even be s**t
We have at best incompetent men, at worst, well much much worse Darren Brown Kieth Haslam types at the helm
We also have the worst manager for at least one, possibility two generations and we can't afford to sack him.
If we finish 12th or higher with minimal off field losses I will be happy.
unfortunately I can see Caldwell delivering worse and Carson delivering worse
Look over your shoulder chaps, while waving the yellows goodbye

Even in our state though, I wouldn't want blubber the hut as manager. We've enough corruption without adding him

[Wooly]

Steve Evans is a proper manager. Young Gary could only be classed at best as his YTS apprentice.

[Siberian Spireite]

I don't even care about football any more.

[Wooly]

i feel your pain Sibby. I said it when he made his first interview.. man he;s dull. i got flamed

Gary Caldwell is like Adam Murray on Mogadon

He is The Undertaker. He's been employed to take you under.

[Spired]

Well let's be realistic as you can see wooly we are.

I think we'll be circa 16th next year yourselves circa 5th. Unless ched massively out guns the league which is possible with seb even then I think 9th tops

Are you surprised we are knowledgeable grounded fans? I bet we still average 5500 though perhaps 1900 more than you

3600 average would be good for you though no disrespect intended you are small fry though

At the time most CFC fans were sympathetic to the plight whilst it was funny as we hate you it was Bunkum for the fans

Tbh we are not that infantile to endorse finishing above you as an objective ignore our local rag please

The fact you were so conspicuous by your absence until only a few short months ago tells us just how quickly things can change.

But hey, enjoy, because we all know us going down is like a promotion for your little club.

Bless...

When are you going to get that large swathes of Town fans just don't care about Mansfield. We have far bigger issues to deal with that where we finish in relation to you in the league.

It's like Derby with us, we're technically meant to be rivals but we play each other so infrequently cause were higher in the pyramid you kind of just forget about them.
