Match Report

For a real test of character look no further than the sides in this season's relegation dogfight. It's going to get messy down there and sides like Mansfield Town FC need to turn defeats in to wins if they're going to stay put.
It's not just weights Mansfield Town FC needs to lift. Their manager needs to lift their spirits in training too. He could start by tinkering with the Jogging practice.
Mansfield Town FC's possession game was so bad they'd fair better if they turned the pitch into a giant pinball machine.
Mansfield Town FC's keeper, Andy Gravity, should have been a comedian. That way he'd give his team mates a good laugh with losing them every game he plays in.
The Blurred Crusade may as well have erected a traffic light, permanently on red, at the edge of the 18 yard box, so good were the defence today.
2 Mansfield Town FC players found themselves in Brian Blinker's book after he broke up row over how many of them had slept with the goalie's wife.
After being scythed down in the opposition box, The Blurred Crusade's Michael Owen stepped up to put the resulting penalty in the back of the net with aplomb. He kicked the ball first though.
"Someone in this team will have to grab the ball by the horns if we're going to get anything out of this season," huffed manager Joel Fretwell following his side's poor showing.
No one likes to see their team take such a savage beating. Maybe it's why the Mansfield Town FC supporters decided to leave their specs at home.
