I also think it's a very good appointment as long as the Stags supporters are after stability, a long term approach and don't mind watching a solid defensive style of football.

He will sort them out no doubt about it , get them very well organised, and there is absolutely no chance they can get any worse this season seeing as they've not won a single game yet!

The question will be how patient are the Stags fans prepared to be? If they turn on him Field Mill can be a toxic place and Nigel is a sensitive man and won't like it.

Good appointment. I wonder if Trew or Hardy ever approached him, I can't remember his name cropping up on here much when we have been looking for our next manager.
