Really? I can think of far more annoying things in football.

I don't know about getting upset, I think some fans are getting frustrated at the lack of defensive additions, I know there's still 6 weeks until the window closes and there's still time

Can’t remember the specifics, but the 15/16 pre season was toilet as well. Convinced that we were going down when we drew 0-0 with Nuneaton and our big hope Adam Armstrong looked pants.

He didn't sign until the day before the Wigan game did he?

I'm sure it's just MR trying to manage people's expectations, all of a sudden a point at home against Forrest, is looking like a success.

Pre season results are entirely irrelevant. I don't think we've played a game where the first choice 11 have played together at any point.

It will come together vs Wolves....just watch! I reckon we will pretty much have our squad for Forest available in that match.

Tonight was very worthwhile altogether not that concerned about pre season.

Years since I've been forced to go there - only used to like something called a Zinger (or some such!) Used to serve weird drinks like Smartie crush. Never felt like I wanted to sit down in case I caught anything (and that was before Cov-id )

Some positives. We kept another clean sheet in attack, Jodi didn't get injured and the chicken was good.

All seriousness not too bad considering their first team v our reserves at best and some valuable minutes in legs and some hope from the kids. No shots on target and a few shaky moments at the back is of course concerning whatever the standard, but I'm not worried yet.

Good run out for some of the younger lads! Howley looks a player, Reid also looked good

Bright very sharp when he came on

Walker looked very poor though, no way he should be playing up top on his own at any point this season

Let's be honest about today. The Mansfield fans are raving about how brilliant they were, how their midfield bossed a championship side, when in reality they don't realise that it was basically an u23s side labelled as the 1st team. The only exceptions being Wilson, Jones (not played for 2 years) Sheaf and Walker that started, and by the end of the game a significantly underfit Bright was the only "1st team" player on the pitch and they couldn't handle him. Put Hamer, O'Hare, Waghorn and co out there and it's a different game.
