agreed - i don't remember ever seeing a manager as angry at one of his own players as Brum's was that night - furious (was it Trevor Francis at the time?)- subbed him straight away and loaned us a replacement for a couple of months (Graham Hyde?)

trevor francis was a man of integrity

The same Trevor Francis who fined the then QPR player Martin Allen 2 weeks wages for rushing to his wife's bedside to witness the birth of his first child?

I'd forgotten about that.

Being a scabs supporter should earn our utter contempt for it's such a waste. We have been gifted with a large brain, but for scabs fans just a spinal cord would suffice.

John Cheidozie`s lad - a former spireites lad scores against the yellow stain. I might go to this one (in the home end obviously)

Cambridge have signed Jordan Cheidozie from Concord Rangers

There is nowt stopping him sponsoring more than one team, NTL & McEwans did it for years (NTL sponsored Rangers & Villa in the same season & McEwans sponsored both Celtic & Rangers in the same seasons as well) as long as he doesn't have any say in the running of Donny there's no rules against it. And as for VK (us, Barnsley & the yellow stain at the same time)

Donny are sponsored by the business, he owns Mansfield personally so doubt there is any issue.

Adam Murray appointed player/manager permanently.

Youngest manager in the Football League at 33

(at least until May!)

If he lasts that long.

no surprise there. A pasting against Cambridge on Saturday after losing 3-0 at Luton would see any new manager bounce well and truly squashed.

I guffawed a full, proper belly laugh when I heard about this.

Comedy Radford made a big song and dance about the list of applications our little neighbours supposedly received, told their small band of followers he was holding clandestine interviews at a hotel near Nottingham (I guess there's no demand for any in Mansfield. Either that or there was an element of embarrassment involved...), then held a press conference where he announced to the handful of folk bothered enough to attend he'd appointed.....the former assistant manager.

And with no new backroom staff, either.

Radford's wallet 1, Staglets 0.

Seriously though, we're talking about a club with a rookie boss working with one of the lowest budgets in the entire Football League. Was it really only a year or so ago they were telling us how their multi-millionaire 'lifelong fan' Chairman would see them overtake us?

Why does Radford look like someone's just dragged him in halfway through a bender and dressed him in a suit at least a size too big?

I love how the article states he has "transformed the stags in recent weeks" if transformed is beating a pub team in a fa cup replay, then losing 3-0 in a L2 game and the winning one game...ah I get it..it's the one win..I stand corrected.
