Having been battered 7-2 against Grimsby, Mansfield will be looking to avenge that result against us. That said, their discipline at the moment is questionable with quite a few niggly incidents, off the ball antics and plenty of bookings etc. We need to be in their faces and prepared to harry and make sure they don't have time to dwell on the ball before the challenge comes in. We need a bunch of tenacious terriers snapping at them and ideally an early goal (not sure where this is coming from though).
I'm convinced if we snatch an early goal their fans will be on the players backs and this will weigh heavily on their players. We need to be up and at em from the first whistle and let's come back with 3 points to strive for BSP survival.
Give Reeves a go from the off cause surely the oportunity that Beesley squandered would have been put away by our top scorer yesterday.
