The League 2 Promotion thread

Swindon (H)
Cheltenham (A)
Mansfield (H)
Exeter (A)
Newport (A)
Northampton (H)

That’s what we have left (Newport being the game in hand). I think we’ll need to win 5 of them to reach the playoffs - which I think is too much if I’m honest.

Win 3 games - “boycott” over.

If you went into non league, no chance you’d sustain fan base like Luton, Bristol and us.

Boycott over? I’ve not been since I said I wouldn’t. I want the prick out of my club, as do many others.

And as for us not sustaining our fan base, we’re pretty much down to our core anyway. Laughable that you think non-league will be the straw that breaks the camel’s back though.

We’ve watched our team slowly get worse and worse as the years pass, so another relegation wouldn’t exactly surprise many of us in fairness.

And since Everton won the FA Cup back in 1995, we are literally the only club in the 92 who’s not had a league title or promotion to celebrate. We’ve had absolutely nothing, whilst everyone else has tasted that success. Yet we still have one of the best away numbers in the division, and we were even top 7 in L1 for numbers.

We won’t go down anyway so it doesn’t matter really.

 

[birkenhead tranny]

Oh.

I thought you boys were going straight up?

What happened?

its still possible although may be out of reach , will mansfield carry on looking for draws or actually go for wins ?

 

[birkenhead tranny]

Doidge coming back to the boil and so all set up nicely for us to dick Tranmere in the play-offs again

thats confidence ! you got to make play off s first .

 

[AdamStag]

No I don't think you will be, but I expect us to be playing Tranmere in the semi.

We’ve only drawn 2 from the last 10 so not really sure how to respond

We're stumbling towards that line like a drunk to a kebab shop.

But not at the New Lawn obviously!

However pissed we stick to hummus in pita bread

think its 2 out of last five ! if you would like to check . think you have drawn 15 this season so far ,

 

[B.F.C.]

I hardly dare look at this thread anymore let alone post on it!
How quickly things change!
Never thought we were nailed on but now I am panicking!
No nails left to eat!!!!

Fancy drawing all those games and being 2nd in the league, clearly it’s not done us any good

Yeah including one against you in Birkenhead, why we are talking about equally boring stuff we also easily put you aside 3-0 not long back.

I suppose that game was typical earlier for us though, should have won that with the chances at the end, but they managed to cling on.

 

[RLC]

Are Mansfield set to recreate the Freight Rover Trophy 'glory' years ?

 

[Conker]

Always a good sign in a football forum 'debate' when somebody is clutching at straws so much they decide to veer off to the 1980s.

 

[RLC]

I find it curious that the Mansfield supporters on here willy wave more than any other group of fans, yet the history of their club is rather modest. That was my point.

Well this one was clearly started by a troll from Birkenhead, and it's just taking the piss. because you know it's just a football forum, that's sort of the point? We are rarely successful so you gotta get a laugh out of it

I don't really see the problem anyway, are we really that bad? bar the expat obviously.

I don’t get it either mate. But yeah if weee digging up the 80s you know that the argument is going downhill, oh dear.

We’re a pretty modest bunch tbh - I’m certianly not overly positive

 

[RLC]

I am quite happy to discuss the late eighties and what followed.

 

[Conker]

Mansfield fans were exactly the same on the old TFF when we were 14th in the conference.

We had a few extra back then mind, including JJ who was a genuine insider of the club and another one called StagInCuckney? I think who had a vendetta against the Radfords and half the board actually believed his shite

 

[KeithH]

STOP TAKING PEOPLE SERIOUSLY

 

[Tranmerewhite]

STOP TAKING PEOPLE SERIOUSLY

Mansfield serious? They're just another bankrolled tinpot club like Fylde.

I only upset nutts fans though

BRING BACK JUMPIN' JOHN!

 

[Conker]

BRING BACK JUMPIN' JOHN!

He was brilliant, everything turned out true that he said!

 

[Richard Cranium]

YEAR OF THE STAG PART 2

 

[Luke Imp]

He was brilliant, everything turned out true that he said!

Was is StagInCuckney that just didn't like him and refused to believe anything he said even though it was right?

 

[Richard Cranium]

SIC must’ve been Luke from Stagsnet!

 

[Moomin]

The next two games for us will determine if we will get play offs or not. Game in hand tomorrow away at Macc is massive as it will give us a nice cushion if we win. And then Port Vale home on Saturday.

Both will be massively tricky though as both fighting for their lives and we can easily come unstuck.
