The other day someone said he was the new David Mooney, and a lightbulb went on above my head. When it’s not working for him he can look miles off it. But one day everything will click and he’ll be deadly. At just 21 there’s plenty of time for that to happen, and it may even happen sooner than it d...

He' way out of our reach now and is championship bound.

he comes home to us in the championship next year, unlikely but never rule us out

I don't know what to make of him. Signed him on loan at the syart of the season - looked promising at youth level and clearly has something about him given leeds spend a mil on him, looked terrible at the start at the season (in all fairness a lot of players did), he gets a run in the team, doesn't ...

--------------------keeley galbraith beckles reg currie ------------clare brown -----agyei donley abdulai ---------------kelman I think if Galbraith is back he plays rb - far better than clare there and while not as good there, Clare is great in midfield. Pratley might be back but probably doesnt st...

I was always supportive in signing him but the ones who didn’t want him were valid too. Until this season, he hadn’t shown himself to be a consistent goalscorer. Now its on him to reproduce this tally every year. The work rate and link up play has always been there. Also, suggesting RW hasn’t made ...

Done well this year in a poor league. Not a full on striker but done great scoring 19 goals. Maybe as the manager Mr Wellens needs to own up that the team is full of loan players Not up to us, i have been supporting Os before he was born in a shithole up north. “Done well in a poor league” ? I thin...

penalty... suprise suprise not to us

i trust that richie knows far more than us about charlie's attitudes when first coming here

For Mansfield:
-------------Keeey
Clare Pratley Cooper Currie
--------Brown Ball
--Agyei Donley Williams
--------Kelman

2-0 wigan - its not that we are too far off playoffs - its that we are so dogshit at the moment that we won't make it - all the teams around us dont look great

Which players could we realistically look at and try and sign on a free in the summer - that would replace or even improve all the loans and the players probably leaving in the summer?

starting eleven for next year ------------------new keeper ----new rb Beckles new cb new lb -----------------clare brown ----new winger abdulai o neill -------------------new striker I think at rb we should look at liam Bennett - haven't watched an awful lot of him but apparently he is too good to g...

Lets hope Reading are sold before April the 5th or the EFL/F.A give them until the end of the season 🤞 Why? Won’t be too sad to see a playoff rival getting points docked. They won’t scrub our 6 points if that’s what you’re getting at as much as id love to see a playoff rival be expelled from the le...

Huddersfield 4 down now - great for us

sounds brutal but i say sell ethan in the summer, use the money to tie down loans like keeley and kelman on perms, renew Beckles, prats and agyei and get a right back, left back, and an attacking midfielder and a winger or two as cover for OON and Agyei (hopefully a few of them on perms but loans wo...

Of the playoff places - either Wrexham or Wycombe are locked in for 3rd (Charlton will fall off after posh today surely, shocked them almost like their 2 late goals against us affected us), Stockport and Charlton both look certain for playoffs barring an incredible loss of form, so its 6th that's up...

One of those players that developed as he matured into his 20's into a physique that does not make for a top level footballer. Probably developed a lack of self-control around the calories, which in turn affected his physical ability. A great shame because his skills should have taken him much furt...

2 goals all season...

Huddersfield are 4 up v Crawley, if they continue like this theyre surely nailed on for 6th - still we have to try

If Bolton lose to Stockport today and we beat Blackpool we are 2 points off playoffs, Reading have a tough game against Stevenage, Huddersfield are in terrible form although they will probably have the new manager bounce, and then they have a 6 pointer v Charlton next week. Oxford on a similarly poo...

3-1 Os, we win this and with TJ, Beckles, Happe and OON all back for Mansfield we have a real chance of making playoffs. Richie said playoffs were impossible at the start of the season - yet we were there at just a month ago. It is very unlikely but then again, Keeley's goal was unlikely, the run we...

Henderson's clearly finished - he went to Saudis 2 years ago - almost definitely just there for the leadership and mentality he brings in the dressing room. I won't pretend to have watched an awful lot of top flight football but conor Gallagher is what England need - a workhorse ready to give his 10...

After Oldham, I dont think we can give up hope on this team till the very end. Richie has worked miracles here and I think he will work more. He said TJ, Happe, Beckles, and OON will be back for Mansfield but this is a must win if we have any chance of making playoffs, which at the moment look very ...

he will start for them in the championship never mind league 1
