Personally, I wouldn't. No place for it in the game.
If our team had done what you accuse Mansfield of doing we would have been applauding them.
No,I too would prefer the game played in the right way. Unfortunately these are the times we live in.Personally, I wouldn't. No place for it in the game.
Why should they have had 2 players sent off?
Says it all when Biamou is called in to save the day[/QUOTE
Your hatred for Biamou is such that I can't give any credibility to your opinions
Hmmm... disagree on Grendel's opinion on Biamou's header. I thought he did well there. I still think that first one of theirs wasn't a penalty too.

Burge looks at error there unfortunately. Anyone else concur?
A header which was so poorly timed and weak that the defender could have strolled back from the half way line to clear.

It was. But from there you would expect it to fly in like a rocket to beat the keeper. Need a different angle for clarity.Burge looked like he got a hand to it. Haynes backed off and gave him all the time and space needed. Hard to tell whether Burge should've done better from that angle. It was a decent strike though, credit where it's due.
I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt, you'd only be able to tell from camera directly behind the goal.Hmmm... disagree on Grendel's opinion on Biamou's header. I thought he did well there. I still think that first one of theirs wasn't a penalty too.

The one that pulled McNulty down when he was through on goal and the out of control tackle on Vincenti by the corner flag.
Like the referee I've only had chance to see it once live so may change my opinion when I see it again.
I was in line with the first and no contact - the vincenti one was no different to McDonald
From my viewpoint Rose definitely dived. The ref could have given the third if he had wanted tooDidn't think the first one was a pen, but did think the second one was. That's the one Rose got booked for simulation for and didn't see the third one.
I thought there was contact on McNulty, but not enough to warrant a foul.I was in line with the first and no contact - the vincenti one was no different to McDonald
It was worse than McDonald's in my opinion, but I am not convinced it warranted more than a yellow.The only thing with the Vincenti one is that he looked out of control (again, from my angle). Would be good to get another look at it at some point.
I agreeIt was worse than McDonald's in my opinion, but I am not convinced it warranted more than a yellow.
Hmm, think you need to watch that again, Grendel.
To be fair during this thread you’ve said Mansfield only were long ball merchants lumping the back to forwards then saying that the centre halves weren’t worked and the full backs struggled as they used width!
How longs that like on a full contract ?
I think you will find that entirely untrue.To be fair during this thread you’ve said Mansfield only were long ball merchants lumping the back to forwards then saying that the centre halves weren’t worked and the full backs struggled as they used width!
how long do you give the others?
Biamou has improved, have Beavon and McNulty?
If he's improved as much as he's going to then clearly he's not good enough but do you really think he was brought in to be our main goal threat?
The Biamou header was under pressure. Definitely worth another look. Couldn't do a massive amount with it to be fair.
I think you will find that entirely untrue.
Mansfield had great joy WHEN they went wide, but they didn't utilize that enough and they did keep insisting on lumping the ball long to the front two. I never, ever said they were ONLY long ball merchants. They kept choosing that route though time and time again.
Watch the match again and you will see that was clearly apparent.
I never ever said the centre backs weren't worked either. The fullbacks struggled when they used width, but lucky for us they didn't use that option nearly enough as they should have done, because it WAS giving them joy.
Please don't just make things up.

Just checked and what I said was that for the most part Mansfield seemed to be only using long punts upfield and that was entirely true. Out of every ten balls up field I would bet you that eight of those were directly up to their forwards.I think you will find that entirely untrue.

How the bloody hell is he supposed to convince himself that he beat you in a debate. If he can’t completely exaggerate
the sensible point you make in order to make it sound ridiculous. Then debate that point (that you didn’t actually make) instead.
I didn't. Another made up statement. I was clearly joking. I said 'I take it you don't go up much.'They never lumped the ball up - they dominated midfield attacked both flanks and pretty much everyone else acknowledged they were the best team we’ve seen here.
I said that at half time and you disagreed.

They were looking so dangerous WHEN they went out wide, so why Evans decided to deploy that tactic is beyond me, but I never said they were only long ball merchants.
