The L2 Playoffs

[valefan16]

Bit of a smash and grab which Stags will be delighted with, looked a stone wall penalty from the corner to be fair but Hoskins has to bury the chance and make it irrelevant.

 

[EricSabin]

Ffs. Not gonna mention the decisions. 45 minutes of singing my box off and then that’s me done. For ever.

 

[leedsvaliant]

Still plenty of time in this one. Northampton just got to show a bit more quality around the area.

 

[Claret Forever]

We've struggled to break down teams who have something to defend all year, which is why we didnt go up automatically and have such a poor record after going behind first. Short posession game isnt good enough to break down teams sitting deep, and if we leave at this stage its probably only fair its for that as its a glaring weakness in the team.

 

[kieran_vale]

Give a lot of credit to Mansfield. In the situation they’re doing a fantastic job.

Far from over for the Cobblers. An equaliser on the night and then just see if can create some chaos in the box and you never know.

 

[Soz]

Never a pen for me but I'd be fuming that goal is not offside.

 

[SVH]

The player who crossed it in was miles onside

 

[valefan16]

Mansfield are living a charmed life with the referee there!

 

[Conker]

Top tip for football fans going to see a game live, if the players don’t appeal, don’t bother yourself.

 

[Vanni]

Hmm, this ref is doing his utmost to ensure this year is really going to be the Year of the Stag (insert trademark here)

 

[Conker]

How long before O’Toole red then?

Bye

Quinn went after it though

 

[Vanni]

Conker - 5 mins tops.

 

[Claret Forever]

How long before O’Toole red then?

Hopefully next 5 mins because otherwise can't see us scoring two if we played all night

 

[YEO YEO YEO]

I know the conditions dont help, but my word, this is low on quality!

 

[Spanishstag]

Hopefully next 5 mins because otherwise can't see us scoring two if we played all night

Hopefully your right ,been a classic away performance so far

 

[Gassy]

He is lucky to stay on the pitch there

 

[Claret Forever]

Can't say any of the penalties were for me, but how was that not a red?

 

[Conker]

Lee Hendrie is doing my head in.

 

[valefan16]

Nasty one, an orange level card that seen them given as a red. Probably saved by the wet pitch

 

[Claret Forever]

Do not fucking put on that useless c*** Rose ffs.

 

[Spanishstag]

Lee Hendrie is doing my head in.

As eric sabin says the commentary is heavily slanted

 

[Gassy]

C’mon Northampton, grab a goal to make this interesting.

Superb defending from Mansfield

 

[Gassy]

Is this referee actually for real?

 

[valefan16]

That was stupidity from Quinn there.

 

[Conker]

That was stupidity from Quinn there.

This one I can’t argue with, definitely a yellow. Quinn has form being silly with stuff like that.

 

[Claret Forever]

Think thats it then. Need to face up to losing Horsfall, Roberts and McWlliams, and Eppiah back to his parent club and work out how to recruit some quality that can break people down. We wanted to sign Jacobs if we'd gone up, so know we're looking at the right type of player for that at least, and go fornone of the three auto places next year.

 

[Conker]

Not keeping the ball well enough for me at this point, could do with a change or two.

Northampton has zero creativity and their decision making is so poor. You’ll be fine
