No way are we the better team, they’re so much more direct and attacking with purpose.

Orient are dominating the game, not doing tons with it, Mansfield counter attacking and looking dangerous in my eyes

Whether Mansfield are letting orient dominate maybe

Their winning comfortably 2-0. All they have to do now is sit back and catch us on the break and it's game over . It's been too easy for them.

Deliberate. People will let us have the ball knowing how toothless we are then hit us on the break, knowing how susceptible we are to a quick counter.

Bring Dennis on for Coulson. Play 4-4-2 with Broghy and Dennis wide. It will work.

442 second half
It’s got to be

I’d take Clay off and put Marsh on as well

That’s the pattern we have set

I’d go 1 1 8 we need the 3 points
sh*t or bust

Clay ? At least he tackles unlike Towie

Widdowson's was a stonewall penalty. Who holds onto an opposing player who is running away from goal when they are still in the box, utterly stupid. The minimum requirement of our front two is that one of them holds up the ball when it's hoofed up field, yet neither look capable of doing that. This ain't going to end well.

No issue with the formation change but can’t be Coulson that comes off.

Marsh on for Clay, too.

Towie wont need to tackle as that is what Marsh will do isn’t it?

Early second half goal for Mansfield anyone?

I want midfielders to get stuck in
Towie doesn’t have that in his locker

Can’t see how we’re dominating tbh - they seem quicker and more determined all over the pitch and we seem toothless up front

Happe off for Dennis. Assume 4-4-2

Fair enough for mixing it up

Gotta be a change at half-time, 4-4-2, Dennis and Brophy to the wings.

If we don't get a goal early get Marsh on, I don't care who he comes on for, either Clay or Wright.

If still 2-0 might as well throw Harrold on as well and go for it.

Football is a different animal now. Losing your two best players and just kind of replacing them but not really as they are unlikely to be as good plus Wright will get you nowhere. Even in league two clubs spend big money. I am not knocking the owners and am forever grateful but our transfer activity this summer and as a newly promoted team was pitiful.

We need a goal and it will shake up Mansfield, theyll get nervy, but we dont score....i just remembered that.....damn

You're right , it's got to be because it's now bloody obvious . . If it isn't then sadly it's time up Ross .

So I think we’ve realised, 4 minutes in, why we might not have gone with 4 at the back earlier...cos Ling can’t f*cking defend. They’ve got in down our right 3 times already.

Orient right hand side non-existent

Ling getting torn a new one in the first 10 mins of the second half. We’re all over the shop with this new formation.

I think it must be 4-3-3 or Dennis is just refusing to defend.

Their midfield is so much more productive than ours
