Sneag is correct.
The only time we have ever been in a higher division than both of them was a 6 year spell from 1964 to 1970.

:lol: decided my post was unkind on our favourite blogger, so deleted it.

Alternatively, read it is as STOP (being a member of the football league)...

Kristian Dennis, formerly of the sheep bothering Church benders and lately employed by ‘Flashing Alan’ of Meadow Lane, has managed to get relegated again. Also through having a great agent, hard work and perseverance he has managed, for the second year running, to take a local rival down to the conference.

Firstly, is this a record? Secondly, will he be given the freedom of Mansfield and the privileges that go with it (driving a flock of sheep through the market though without making love to them)? Thirdly, who would we like him to sign for this coming season?

Agent Dennis no stay clear.

Maybe just me but would welcome back agent Hemmings. 14 goals in a poor team isn't a bad return.

Dennis has had 3 relegations in 3 consecutive seasons.

There were some on here wanting to sign him at the start of the season :crazy: :crazy:

I liked Hemmings and would have him back, maybe not as first choice but good player at this level.

Listened to that interview today, very, very disturbing. I'd have been worried if I'd been Charlie Slater that the next time I saw Alan he'd have been floating face down along the Trent. Never listened to an interview where someone was so crestfallen such as that, the long pauses and sighs from Hardy shows he cares about what's happened, unlike the Count who just sat smoking his cigars and smirking to himself.
