re. Shirtliff

Talking to a couple of Mansfield Town fans at work (yes, they do exist) and they had some complimentary things to say about Shirtliff. Very pleasant man, used to chat to the fans & very approachable. He was very good at organising the team and so I'd hope that the Town's defence will be a bit more solid that in was last season. I believe that under his influence Tranmere had a good defensive record last year - with Greer on board & Shirtliff to sort out who is responsible for what defensively then maybe Swindon could be in for a good season.
