It is important not to get too carried away. 4 wins out of 5 and the Mansfield Town show has only just started. Hope however is building at Field Mill.
Having seen off a spirited and committed Ebbsfleet yesterday Mansfield sit 2nd in the table.
For the first time this season an away team came to play football. I was tempted to shake the hand of every away fan in gratitude. It wouldn't have taken too long either only 52 braving the trip into the mining heartland.

For the first 20 minutes it was touch and go. Ebbsfleet creditably got the ball on the floor despite a few big lads upfront and passed their way through the midfield. However they were badly let down by some woeful shooting that got worse as the game went on and an ability to pass the ball to an imaginary player some feet away from the nearest team mate.
Mansfield by comparison are a team that take their chances. First thing monday morning I expect Liam Daish the Ebbsfleet manager to have his team watching the Full Monty. The timing of their offside trap needs some work.
First Rob Duffy and later Briscoe taking advantage to beat the keeper one on one at close range. By the time wonder-kid Jake Speight, Speight, Speight wrapped things up with a powerful header half way through the second half the writing was well and truly on the wall.
Over 3100 in the ground for the 3rd time this season. It will be interesting to see how many are still turning up in the depths of December.
The weekend is signed off nicely with an Ashes victory and two more silver medals in the world championship athletics.
