Mr Dempster did not inherit a team that was likely to smash the league under Mr Flitcroft had he not been sacked and he actually has to turn a losing team around.

PLD...W....D...L....PTS....PPG
23....13....8...2....47.....2.04 x46 = 94 (Champions)
9th Feb 2019 to 14th Sept 2019
PLD...W....D...L....PTS....PPG
23.....7.....6..10....27....1.17 x46 = 54 (Bottom 4)
The above form is not a "blip" it's over 23 games, half a season.
But, what's changed so drastically that Stags have gone from Champions form to Bottom 4 form?

Unpopular opinion I’m sure, but the facts are clear these (expensive) players have failed to produce consistent football to the required standard.
Some of them for 3 managers.
Meanwhile the fan base blame everyone from the owner/CEO/manager/groundsmen
Time for the boys in Amber to take a long hard look at themselves.

Shockingly poor, considering Stags playing budget.
Based on the last 25 League games the team as a whole are very overrated, and based on the budget very overpaid.
This seasons 10 points from 10 games is Stags worst start to a League 2 season since we returned to the Football League.
If this team was in a normal day job they would now be sat at home with their P45 in the post.
Whilst I believe this team have the ability to be in the Top 3, they've turned into a team with a book of hard luck stories!

I’m not going to be posting on social media constantly and shouting it at games but in my opinion he’s just not going to get good at this in time for a club like ourselves with high expectations and it’s only a matter of time, and that’s not just off the back of yesterday disappointing and slightly unfortunate defeat like some will suggest. We’ve won twice this season and both have still somehow been underwhelming.

Personally, i feel something went off during January (whether it be transfer related or youth or whatever), and whatever toxic seed was sown is sprouting into this poisonous sapling. Whatever it is still persists, because imo this team is easily playoff material. I suspect the Radford's absence may mean this problem is being left unchecked
I have no basis for my theory other than scurrilous assumption, but that's often more than i usually have!

What went off was White getting injured. Folk say it is only one man, but people don't realise how much effect he has on this team.
