The Mansfield, Notts County, Lincoln and East Midlands mega thread

[Richard Cranium]

Personally, I'd just ban DickHead temporary or better yet permanently rather than close threads. You'd think he supports a big PL club with all the bollox he spouts, but the fact is he supports another mediocre lower league side just like the rest of us do.

I’ve done nothing wrong Vannerz

Shame it’s only a trio, but chesterfield left us

Do we boost this back up to a quartet and then have a mini East Midlands League Table?

 

[The_Viking_Magpie]

I see no reason why not.

 

[Youpies]

Weirdly always seen Northants as West Mids. Google tells me I'm mistaken.

Depends where the TV signal comes from; used to be either East Midlands or Anglia...although Anglia doesn't acknowledge that there is anyone apart from Ipswich or Norwich in football.

 

[Conker]

Do we get a trophy?

 

[PiedPiper]

The table is wrong. Notts lost 2 games (Mansfield and Chesterfield away) we drew away with Lincoln which I suspect you have given them a win so on goals scored, we are second

 

[AdamStag]

The East Midlands is Derbyshire Notts Leicestershire and Lincolnshire in my eyes, Northamptonshires a bit of an odd one. But google reckons it seems part of the East Midlands, so welcome.

I hope we get more 1pm KO’s tbh, cheers police.
1-0 wins at Lincoln and chesterfield were most enjoyable, a 99th penalty to deny county was equally as well

Thank you.
At least in this league we'll have a chance of finishing in the top four...

That injury time equaliser was about the last highlight of Mansfield’s season wasn’t it?

17th March!

Long as you do better than the last East Midlands team who came down from league 1

 

[PaulHaddock]

Can we join?

 

[AdamStag]

Can we join?

You’re in Lincolnshire so yeah.

We also beat and drew with you.

In Mansfield we always used to get “look North” featuring peter beagrie based somewhere in Yorkshire - which was quite concerning. Thankfully when digital came in we were relocated tv wise to a proper part of the country

 

[Bianconeri 1862]

Mansfield yes geographically in Nottinghamshire but more akin to a south Yorkshire pit village

 

[Richard Cranium]

It’s a cob, Not a roll/bun so we can put to bed any sort of discussion involving us and those tight Yorkshire bastards!

 

[Burberry]

Mansfield linked with Burys wing back Craig Jones

Here, in Barnsley, they call a cob a "bread-cake". It really is a strange place!

 

[Spanishstag]

Nowtwrong with barnsley ,ahem scargill aside at least its the right side of the country ,unlike our unfortunate neighbours from nottingham who seem to have an identity crisis every time we mention north or south ,although it gets worse if you mention the two times european champions from the same city

Quite right, I did mix up the stupid tin pot cup with the results for Notts/Lincon, anyway....

 

[GTFCfish]

^^^^ How come total goals for is 34 yet goals against is 35?

Suspect something to do with the games mix up. Points have been reallocated but goals not maybe? Tinpot cup was a 2-1 at sincil bank but 2-2 in the league so Notts need an extra goal in goals for column I believe.

Notts only counted goals scored before the 98th minute

Beats a barmcake in an unknown location in the north-west

Tinpot trophies count IMO. Who can forget our glorious win over Mansfield on our way to win the EFL Trophy?
