What is the situation with Otis Khan? I assume that he is still injured .... but if not ... why isn't he getting in the team/bench?
Are players like MacDonald really keeping players like Grant & Khan out of the team? :o

Khan came on against Vale and set up a goal almost immediately. I don't get why he hasn't been given more of a chance wither. Grant has had so much match time given how disappointing he's been. I'd have Turner and Khan in our playoff games. Picking the others in big games hasn't worked so might as well change something and see what happens.

Khan has been injured. He's been training with the first team though so I assume he is fit now.

Recommended is one thing, it's up to the manager whether he signs them or not you'd think. If a manager is worth his salt he should know quality.
Can't see why the folk are out with the torches and pitch forks for Abbot in all honesty.
It was plain to see since Davis was crocked that we were lacking something different up front, that to me lays at the managers door.

Give him a go as manager then, we’ll all be able to see what Bradford fans thought of Abbott.

Why should he escape any flak? It’s gone downhill since he got here.

To blame Greg is one of stupidest things ever heard. Really are some daft Mansfield fans.

The players are mainly responsible, followed by the manager.

Why is it? Isn’t he overseeing recruitment? Something has gone wrong and he came with a stinking endorsement from Bradford fans.

I think somewhere along the line, there may be challenges to that theory.

“Introducing Carlton Palmer as Mansfield manager” would be above this.

Just who do you think was bending the Chairman's ear to get him in ?
