Anyone know how the Divine Ponytail is after hobbling off?

Cramp I believe.

I agree on all of that, although I hear Payne could be out a few more weeks yet.

I wouldnt be surprised to see O'Brien play as Mansfield have the massive lump Ollie Hawkins up front who is 6 foot 14 and a threat in the air and the new lad is supposed to be decent in the air.
Just watching last night’s FA Cup highlights show and bizzarely Hawkins played at centre half for Mansfield! From reading up that isn’t the first time he has played there either.

He did manage to score - a header of course out jumping Sol Bamba who is far from a midget so agree that O’Brien’s height could come in handy whereever Hawkins plays.

Payne a big loss - could be 6 weeks at least.

I noticed this too! How slow did he look to the third though?

The Divine Ponytail and Jonny Williams are both fine for tomorrow. Payne is coming along well and will know more by the end of the week.

Have contingency plans for any players that may leave!

Well, that was from today’s presser so I expect it to refer to other players not KKH.

Portsmouth moved him from centre forward to centre back and it seems now he just alternates for Mansfield. He is a big lump so it makes sense.

Mansfield fans on their forum say they need him far more up front than at the back, but needs must, they hope to have a loan CB in by the time we play them tomorrow, leaving it late now though.

I’ve seen no ticketing news, I assume we will be able to get a ticket at the ground?

Yes, seconded! I had assumed it was a 7:45 kick off.
