I could be under a misconception (that's a word mcscab not a prozzy or a sister not taking precautions) but aren't all churches in scabland now soup kitchens

I wouldn't know, but I do know the crooked spire was due to an error.... To think your now proud of it, proves if you keep telling yourself something is great you'll end up believing it.

It must really hurt them.

Looking across the M1 and seeing gates that are double what they get.

Seeing a nice tidy new ground, with really good facilities - and one that has 4 sides, compared to Failed Mill.

Seeing the style of football we play compared to them - its as bad, if not worse than anything old "johnny no goals" served up. Without winning games of course. At least old JD won promotion from the basement with his style. They were struggling at the bottom.

Losing your best (only) football player to us.




The best they can come back with is stuff like this above - we have a bent spire. Hmmm......rather a historic old building with real character than a concrete eyesore for a combined shopping centre/bus stop.

I guess that says it all about them really.

Still a foolish mistake

We'll pass it to his feet, cuddle him when he's sickly and in need of love and generally care for him in ways you never could, Mansfield.

not pass to his feet, his foot, he is terribly one footed, defenders work him out within a minute or so

He's obviously completely useless which is very handy for you seeing as you've just sold him to us. Convenience at its finest.

Don't worry we have modern coaching in place where it allows people to use both feet!!

He's now working with higher quality players, not only will they be able to see which is his good foot, they will be able to pass to it as well.

[Theo]

We'll see, my guess is that some of your fans will be slagging him off after 6 games, if I am wrong I'll hold my hands up

Isnt there youtube videos showing him scoring with both feet at various times?

We definitely have some moaners but this is a by product of having lots of fans. Something that you wouldn't know anything about.

Wouldn't say you have lots of fans, more than us but in div1 standard not that many

He was obviously speaking in relative terms...

You appear to know f all about facts.

Our average attendance last year would have put us in about 10th in the league one attendance stats. Obviously now we are actually in that league crowds will increase accordingly and we will be in top 10 again.

Another fact is that our average will be over twice yours this season. At least you don't have to Order in many pies and a barrel of beer should last until after Christmas

I've seen Sunday league teams knock it around a lot better than Mansfield. Always have a stiff neck after I've seen them play.

Why hold BOTH hands up ? ..... would have thought you could count up to 6 games just on the one hand.

And what would you know of Div 1 standard? Any recent relevant experience?

Sometimes the best things come from errors, like Sams career progressing due to Mansfield's error of letting him go.

[The Earl of Chesterfield]

Wow, newsflash from our little neighbours - St Marys and All Saints church spire is...wait for it...crooked >gasp<!

But then as it's an historical anomaly that's seen our town become world famous, I guess we'll get over the shock somehow.

Meanwhile Mansfield is renown for...erm...errr...no, sorry, someone'll have to tell me.

And Clucas is "one footed"?

Well given the pandemonium following reports of our interest, wild (if ultimately premature) celebrations surrounding news he was staying at Field Mill, then Radford being forced to issue a statement assuaging widespread despair when the player finally bettered himself, the Staglets worked themselves into quite a froth over a "one footed" player.

Not to mention going to the time and trouble of sticking cowardly bits of cardboard through his letterbox.

PS: them talking about our attendances?

Awww, bless.....
