Sounds like we're absolutely battering them and missing a hatful of chances. Very worried we'll continue in this vein and concede late. Again.

Should be done and dusted. Theyve parked the bus but still had enough chances to put it to bed.

Watching on ifollow, stream working fine.
we are absolutely battering them and literally running rings round them... ive not seen football this good for years!! Its a shame Oldham have parked the bus because we dont have much room to attack into...
Khan hit the bar after a brilliant move and walkers missed one on one... should be out of sight. Please carry it on in the second half. This lovely football is what weve wanted for years, the better we get at it the more we will hurt teams. Very promising stuff COYS!

Possession in midfield counts for nothing, stop dithering and score.

A late 1.0 will do.
You've got to go there and come back, to know where you've been.

Hopefully it won’t be a other “super draw” where we’ve battered the opposition and don’t do anything.
Draws don’t get top 7. Come on

I can't help but feel that had Davies had the chance walker had he'd bahave buried it.
How walker was on the cusp of starting for Forest, I have no idea. To be fair the chances he's missed are "bread and butter" chances for strikers, should be at least hitting the target.

Just guessing

utterly convinced Wacka has to start every league game as part of his loan deal

every chuffer was slipping over. Bar not scoring, thats my only complaint.
Excellent performance and unfortunatley 2 points lost against a cack oldham side.

we’re doing this too often though.
Enjoyed it on ifollow, but possession and chances don’t win games.
So close to actually becoming a decent side.
However, like Colchester and Exeter Oldham were the latest decent side to come to Mansfield and not lose

Did you go?
It was frustrating but if we play like that more often than not then good times will come.
Some of the best passing and play I've seen for a long time.
I've been very critical about Flitcroft but we were excellent tonight and did everything but score. 6 nil would not have flattered us.

How we did not win that was beyond me.
Midfield of Bishop and Elsnik looks like the beginnings of a great partnership, with Bishop outstanding tonight.
Walker is a waste of shirt and needs dropping. Didn’t do anything except miss a one on one again, very similar to the Tramere miss.
Rose dropped to deep and tried to hard to score when a pass was on (can’t really blame a forward for that)
The ref was a joke and could not wait to give them free kicks at every opportunity. Where a would only blow up and give us one when we had an advantage!
Again though it’s another 2 points dropped and yet again creating lots of chances without scoring that will cost us promotion again this year.
A very good 0-0 to watch though.

I wondered why walker started until I saw Davies who is worse. Superb first 45 and unlucky not to score. Then for some reason we moved cj up top and created far less as a result. Poor substitutions and even worse finishing cost us.

Fantastic football but frustrating finishing.
Apart from the finishing, my only criticism was the timing of the Walker change. Yes he wasn’t playing well and missed a great chance, but the team were playing fantastically. It worked well on Saturday but CJ was much better at wing back tonight than as a winger. We played better in the first half. I would’ve given Walker 10-15 more minutes and then made the change.
Oldham were should be embarrassed with the way they played. How on Earth are they 8th?

Just got in from the game, how we haven't won that game is beyond me. Lads were brilliant first half, playing the ball all over the pitch. Bish an absolute delight to watch. Second half not so fluent but Oldham had more of the ball. They were poor and relied on gamesmanship to reduce the pressures. Disappointed with the result but not the team or manager, should have won but we go again Saturday

It was a superb performance everywhere but where it really matters. How Khan missed that one at the start, Walker missed a one v one and numerous other chances came and went. We are miles better than Oldham yet they go away with a very undeserved point. Elsnik was simply unplayable, what a player he will be for us.
Not seen this style of football at the Mill for well over a decade, just great to watch, gutted we didn't get what we deserved.
I see the utter belmers are out again though, if you think I mean you, then you are probably right.
We are heading in the right direction, 3 pts off the play-offs with a game in hand.

Elsnik is class. Him and Bish is the best midfield duo we've had for a long time. Both a calm on the ball and it allows us to play. On these last two performances I can't see Macca getting back in.

Forgot to mention Bish and as a midfield pairing they were simply fantastic tonight, by a mile the best two players on the pitch. Quite excited by this side, just wish Elsnik was ours and Bish was 33!
