very good description of the Rovers defence from the TV commentators: "an over-my-dead-body approach".

Let's hope the Stags defence can get back to something like that.

I think the Stags players are going to enjoy this change of system or be caught out on being out of their depth

Hopefully not the latter

The Bristol Rovers formation is clearly 3-5-2


Oh Gawd! SINA’s wrong again! :)

Blocks and clean sheet targets were treated like a goal scoring bonus last year... wonder if its been the same this year?

What does that mean? He's literally talked without saying anything.

Might be on his way here.

I think he's saying he's got no chance of the getting the BR manager job. And he's close to Graham. So putting two and two together, you'd probably expect him to come to Mansfield.

I know this is a discussion forum but to question the way someone pronounces the word Mansfield especially when that person in question spends thousands of hours a year working UNPAID for the benefit of all Stags fans goes beyond belief ... Mods its time to do your job ........
