Mansfield Town post match thoughts

[mygiddypant]

A thought crossed my mind today. At least we didn’t pay a million pounds for Gijsbert Bos.

Million doesn't buy you much these days, but I think we expected more than he's delivering.

Is it the (collective) managers' faults? Is it that the tactics used since he came have been the wrong ones? Are we wrong to expect more than he has delivered so far?

I'm not suggesting that he is consistently bad; I just feel confused after watching him.

Hoped we were going to continue what seemed to be a bit of momentum and looked OK for big part of 1st half, with wind assisting a little but once they scored and then against the wind in 2nd half we never looked remotely like scoring.

Bottom line was they maintained a very solid shape as soon as we started going at them, closed with better energy than us, had we're fortunate to get the break. In conditions like that, 1st rule is to play tight, make sure you don't concede and hope for a bit of fortunate. They were a bit better at this than us and fair result.

Fair play Philips who looks much more confident now. Powell always working hard but couldn't beat the wind with his crossing. Pretty much everyone else second or even third best.

Evan’s his just a Charlatan,apparently when he resigned at Mansfield he told them he was going to China two weeks later he signed for Peterborough,I wonder what Cloughie could do with our budget.Ive got to the point I don’t care if we win or lose but it’s ok because some on here still believe every word he says.Get rid for ffs before he drags us into the gutter.

Well, i eventually got the match on but christ almighty. Passing back to the goalie and expecting him to kick long against a gale.

Nombe showed his true self, a very poor player, couldn't control the ball or move to find space. He wasn't the worst one either, the fat man and his mate are deviod of any positve ideas .......they have to go.......................................

I said in the pub last night that any team what's not won for a while will beat us, we like breaking records. If we don't score first we will lose 1-0.

Home form will probably keep us up. We really don't like away games. I'm amazed people still travel to watch us.
Only heard Ronnie's summary, it didn't sound very promising
Merry Christmas everybody.

Jeeeeeez! We?re not going to improve until Evans has left.

It was such a shyte game mainly down to our cohesion.
Anyone would think that this lot had never seen each other before never mind had some spare weeks to work on things.

Resign fatty

When we get to the meat of a season, why do some of you think they will do enough to keep us up?
Only 4 teams below us, whoever, would do that. We won’t.

The problems were there right after players disappeared in the summer…then in comes the dross.
TS in the interview to unveil our glorious new manager duo looked sombre and uninterested. Where is he now? No interviews, no word.
To lift an Evans quote….we are TS’s line manager, and we should voice our opinions.
Don’t go to the next home game. TS only understands one thing. He calls himself merely the custodian of the club.
Then if so, he should appoint someone alongside who knows football, because he doesn’t. Not use an ex financial manger or whatever he was.

Everything is so predictable, it is untrue.

George Kerr times. Pretty much a parallel there.

There's not much point in me warning others about childish abuse Frog when you go and do the exactly the same?

Like the sign on the darts said last night,

Steve evans is a fat cheeseburger

[Ericsladkilnhurst]

I did say what other jobs Steve Evans [selling meat from a car-boot wagon]
& Paul Raynor [traffic warden, with him always having a note-pad in his hand]
would both be alright for.
Thinking about how Steve Evans organises his teams & tactics, he would not be
any good has a butcher, he couldn't even link sausages.
