I'd be quite happy if it was just doctors, nurses and GP's to be honest,Adam Armstrong to send Steve Evans blood pressure soaring, please !
Just looking at last seasons final league 2 table and man it’s a lot lot tighter and competitive this season. Top 3 is looking to be much the same points wise but forth to seventh is completely different. 70 points was enough to secure playoffs last season and if we win tomorrow night we will have the same points total as fifth last season.
As it stands I think 2 more wins will see us safely in the playoffs especially if we win on Tuesday but even that might not be enough this season.
This seems to happen a lot with us. Seem to remember that the season we finished 8th under Mowbray our points tally would have secured us a playoff place the season before. As the saying goes, if we didn’t have bad luck we wouldn’t have any luck.
.....and the comeback is complete Blackburn 2-1 v Posh - cue Evans moaning about the referee, dour Mowbray and the money Blackburn have spent !
Make that 3-1 ! (Bradley Dack - good player in the lower leagues)
Agree with a lot of that. Apart from just 2 wins required. Mansfield will win all 3 remaining. Just got a very bad feeling about it.

That’s a fair point. Maybe three wins thenmight also mean that the Lincoln game is going to be the pivotal game of the battle for the playoff places. All of a sudden I’m less confident than I was 10 minutes ago.

Blackburn should be walking that league with the depth and quality of the squad. To be able to bring on Peter Whittingham, Domanic Samuel and Amari Bell as substitutes is a dream for some sides in the championship.
This the Whittingam that Cardiff let his contract expire, Samuel who has scored 2 goals in the championship in his entire career and Bell who has played one game in the championship ?

In a L1 game yes, they will perform in the championship for sure.
League 2 to league 1 isn't much of a gulf.
But league 1 to championship is a stratosphere of difference.
How well has A Armstrong done in championship. Scores goals for fun in league 1. Step up is huge.
why would those 3 perform well in the championship yet on the bench in league one ?
I agree- big difference, but AA showed me enough to think he can cope easily in the Championship - he has been saddled with poor teams in Bolton/Barnsley previously.
It’s a squad game. Amari Bell is a excellent player. Top end L1 for sure. Donanic Samuel will only get better. Whittingham played his career at that level and might be able to cut it still. My point was to be able to bring that sort of quality on from the bench is excellent
Apostrophe!I'd be quite happy if it was just doctors, nurses and GP's to be honest,
i remember watching Amari bell at nuneaton - think it was a loan there, and even then he stood out
No glasses.Apostrophe!

Not if one of the two was against lincoln I feel. Besides, I just can not see a very poor Mansfield side winning 4 on the trot. No wayAgree with a lot of that. Apart from just 2 wins required. Mansfield will win all 3 remaining. Just got a very bad feeling about it.
I feel your pain. Despite having half a dozen pairs, I often find myself in a room where there are none. The curse of middle age.No glasses.

any others??
Looking on their forum, they are blaming the result vs us at their place as the turning point in their season.
We were miles behind them then in the table, and were about minutes from dropping even further back. They were fighting for autis then.. And that point away certainly had opposite effect on us.
How quickly things change.
He has a touch of class.
