JOHN RADFORD<br />

Welcome to <strong>Carlisle</strong> <strong>United</strong><br />

chairman Andrew Jenkins and<br />

<strong>Salford</strong> <strong>City</strong>’s board of directors for<br />

this week’s two home games at One<br />

Call Stadium.<br />

Due to programme printing<br />

deadlines, I am writing these notes<br />

before the Emirates FA Cup third<br />

round draw. By the time you read<br />

this, I hope the draw has been<br />

favourable to us, our players and<br />

management, given their exploits this<br />

season in the world’s oldest domestic<br />

cup competition.<br />

I was most proud of our performance<br />

at Doncaster Rovers.<br />

We performed superbly in the<br />

previous round at Sunderland,<br />

which was followed by an equally<br />

memorable day at Keepmoat<br />

Stadium at the weekend.<br />

As many of you know, I have enjoyed<br />

long-standing ties with Doncaster for<br />

many years. My company, One Call<br />

Insurance, is based there and has<br />

previously sponsored Rovers over<br />

many seasons.<br />

<strong>Mansfield</strong> <strong>Town</strong>, of course, is and<br />

always been my club since I was a<br />

boy and for me to see over 3,000<br />

Stags’ fans in such fine voice from<br />

start to end made the victory even<br />

more special.<br />

Well done to Nigel, the players<br />

and our supporters for creating an<br />

unforgettable afternoon.<br />

I have been so heartened to see<br />

our management and squad turn<br />

the form book upside down and<br />

earn seven wins from our last eight<br />

fixtures. This should show the<br />

character which we have in our<br />

squad.<br />

As a result of our excellent form, I am<br />

hopeful that our Christmas Cracker<br />

ticket deal will be well received. We<br />

have endeavoured to make watching<br />

the Stags as affordable as possible<br />

over the festive period as we know<br />

that money can be scarce at this time<br />

of year.<br />

Thank you to you all for your positive<br />

and encouraging support.<br />

COYS!!!<br />

NIGEL<br />

CLOUGH<br />

Welcome to <strong>Carlisle</strong> <strong>United</strong> the supporters who travelled such<br />

manager Keith Millen, <strong>Salford</strong> long journeys to Sutton <strong>United</strong> and<br />

<strong>City</strong> manager Gary Bowyer and Crawley <strong>Town</strong> in recent weeks, so a<br />

both clubs’ staff and supporters to home draw and the opportunity to<br />

One Call Stadium for this week’s host a memorable cup tie would be<br />

two home matches.<br />

enjoyable.<br />

We head into our first game against<br />

<strong>Carlisle</strong> off the back of a terrific<br />

victory away at Doncaster Rovers<br />

on Saturday in the Emirates FA Cup<br />

second round.<br />

I was incredibly proud of the players<br />

for our second-half display. I think<br />

the performance after half-time was<br />

probably the best we have played<br />

this season and to do so against<br />

League One opposition was very<br />

encouraging.<br />

To attack the goal that 3,292 of our<br />

constantly-vocal supporters were<br />

situated behind in the second-half<br />

gave us a real lift. The support the<br />

team received on Saturday was<br />

special and we really wanted to<br />

reward the fans for the excellent<br />

backing they have given us all<br />

season.<br />

Some of the football we played in the<br />

win at Keepmoat Stadium was great<br />

to watch. It was pleasing to see a lot<br />

of the one and two touch play we<br />

work on in training come to fruition<br />

for our third goal of the afternoon.<br />

At the time of writing, I am<br />

unaware of the team we will<br />

face in the third round of the<br />

competition because of printing<br />

deadlines.<br />

I hope that we have the opportunity<br />

to host the fixture in front of our<br />

supporters at One Call Stadium. The<br />

lads and I are very appreciative of<br />

We have shown with our recent form<br />

of seven victories in eight games<br />

that we are building momentum<br />

ahead of an important stage in the<br />

season. There are many games over<br />

the festive period and we must look<br />

to accumulate as many points as<br />

possible in order to achieve our goals<br />

come the end of the season.<br />

We hope to build on our recent<br />

success on the road and give our<br />

home supporters two performances<br />

to be proud of.<br />

Enjoy the games.<br />

<strong>Mansfield</strong> <strong>Town</strong> Football Club is<br />

delighted to announce former<br />

goalkeeper Ian Deakin as our new<br />

commercial executive.<br />

Ian played for <strong>Mansfield</strong> from July<br />

2013 to August 2014 and was a<br />

popular member of the first team<br />

squad.<br />

Since retiring as a goalkeeper, the<br />

34-year-old has enjoyed an extensive<br />

career within sales and business<br />

development.<br />

Ian spent ten years working as<br />

a technical sales manager in<br />

the industrial, commercial and<br />

automotive industries.<br />

On joining the Stags in his new role,<br />

he said: “I want to work with local<br />

businesses in and around <strong>Mansfield</strong>.<br />

NEWSDESK<br />

FORMER GOALKEEPER ANNOUNCED AS NEW<br />

COMMERCIAL EXECUTIVE<br />

“It's a great town and it has good<br />

people in it. People work hard in<br />

this town and we appreciate all the<br />

sponsorship that comes in and the<br />

support the fans give us.<br />

“I want to help elevate the club as<br />

high as possible and I am working<br />

hard to do that."<br />

Ian has already begun work in his<br />

new role. The former <strong>Mansfield</strong><br />

'keeper has helped get sponsorship<br />

for the club's new scoreboard.<br />

“We have brought in some new<br />

sponsorship for the scoreboard this<br />

week and the signs will be going up<br />

before the <strong>Carlisle</strong> game.<br />

“The new scoreboard is brilliant – it<br />

looks impressive and is a tool I can<br />

utilise. I know the fans have been<br />

wanting it for a long time.<br />

“The chairman continues to back the<br />

club by installing that. It's part of the<br />

jigsaw.<br />

“You would love everything at a club<br />

to be all-singing, all-dancing and<br />

new, but it has to come as part of<br />

a jigsaw puzzle and we continue to<br />

develop on and off the field.<br />

“It's my role to make sure that<br />

development happens and to make<br />

sure we build those links."<br />

Ian is already the club's head of<br />

academy recruitment. His knowledge<br />

of the game, along with his sales<br />

career, make him a natural fit for his<br />

new position at the club.<br />

“In between playing football for<br />

a living I had a day job in sales<br />

management – technical sales for an<br />

automotive company.<br />

“When this job became available I<br />

believe David Sharpe looked at my CV<br />

– I had recently left my day job – and<br />

he asked me if I would come in and<br />

have an interview because of my skill<br />

set and it went from there.<br />

“I have been in the academy role for<br />

nearly two years now. Coops (Richard<br />

Cooper) and myself were at Forest<br />

together, so I have known him for a<br />

long time.<br />

"I am really pleased to be here. It is a<br />

club that is close to my heart and I'm<br />

excited to get started."<br />

The club’s chief executive, David<br />

Sharpe, said: “I’m delighted Ian has<br />

joined us. Having someone in the<br />

role who knows the club inside out<br />

will be a huge positive for us moving<br />

forwards.<br />

“I am confident that Ian will build<br />

upon the great relationships with our<br />

current partners and explore further<br />

opportunitiesfor the club on national,<br />

regional and local levels.”<br />

SPEEDO MICK VISITS ONE CALL STADIUM<br />

Michael Cullen, also known as<br />

‘Speedo Mick’, visited One Call<br />

Stadium recently as he continued<br />

his fundraising journey walking<br />

to football stadiums in the UK and<br />

Ireland.<br />

Mick, pictured above, has spent the<br />

last eight years raising money for<br />

homeless and mental health charities<br />

by walking to different footballing<br />

stadia in his underpants.<br />

“For the last few years I have been<br />

doing fundraising for charities up and<br />

down the country. I do it [the walk]<br />

all in a pair of knickers basically,” he<br />

said.<br />

“The last challenge [completed] was<br />

a 1,000 mile walk during the winter<br />

months of December and January.<br />

We raised quite a lot of money, half a<br />

million pounds!<br />

“In this year’s walk, I have upped my<br />

game a little bit. I am doing a 2,500<br />

mile walk which started on May 01<br />

and I have now been walking for<br />

seven months. No matter what the<br />

weather is like on the day I do it all in<br />

my Speedos.”<br />

Speedo Mick was keen to point<br />

out that despite the curiosity that<br />

surrounds his unique dresswear, the<br />

reasoning behind the walk is one of<br />

great importance.<br />

“The main purpose of the walk is<br />

that we are going to give a quarter<br />

of a million pounds of the money<br />

that we raised from the last walk to<br />

small charities that support mental<br />

health, disadvantaged children and<br />

homelessness. We are obviously<br />

fundraising as well.<br />

“I’m over 2,000 miles into the walk<br />

at the point of reaching One Call<br />

Stadium. Seven months I’ve been<br />

walking. It’s been a long walk and I<br />

just want to [finish the walk] and go<br />

home now to be honest,” said Mick.<br />

“I’ve had loads of support. I’ve had<br />

loads of people in <strong>Mansfield</strong> stopping<br />

and getting photographs with me and<br />

saying ‘keep going’ or ‘carry on Mick’<br />

which is really important for me.<br />

“The [previously mentioned] quarter<br />

of a million pounds is coming out<br />

of the Speedo Mick Foundation, a<br />

foundation I have set up myself.<br />

“I was an addict. I have been sobered<br />

now for 19 years. Thankfully, things<br />

have changed and I have the support<br />

so I just want to give back to fantastic<br />

charities that make a massive<br />

difference in our community.<br />

“Now I just want to give back through<br />

the Speedo Mick Foundation.”<br />

THE<br />

ACADEMY<br />

Head of academy recruitment, Ian<br />

Deakin, discusses the under-18s’<br />

development this season…<br />

We have players who are doing<br />

well at the minute, especially<br />

some of the first year scholars in<br />

Charlie Carter, Jakub Kruszynski,<br />

Taylor Anderson, Darien Wauchope<br />

– they’re playing under-18s football<br />

which is great.<br />

In terms of development and<br />

progression for them it’s brilliant that<br />

they are in and around our under-<br />

18s, alongside some of boys in the<br />

second year.<br />

It’s great to have some of the older<br />

ones doing well. Jack Deakin’s<br />

scoring a lot of goals at<br />

the minute, Diego<br />

Edwards is doing<br />

well too so we<br />

have a really<br />

strong team in<br />

the under-18s<br />

– both at first year and second year<br />

level.<br />

We go into every game trying to win<br />

and ensure the team continue their<br />

development.<br />

We just hope to continue to progress<br />

and push the lads to try and get in<br />

and around the first team’s squad.<br />

Ultimately, as an academy player<br />

that is what you want to do.<br />

They need to continue this<br />

progression, learn their trade and<br />

then hopefully they will be able to get<br />

into the first team.<br />

The lads will hope to follow in the<br />

footsteps of George Cooper, Nathan<br />

Caine, Ethan Hill and Josh Scott.<br />

Those players have gone into our first<br />

team squad and some are out on<br />

loan at the minute.<br />

For the boys it’s all about<br />

getting towards the next step<br />

in their careers.<br />

when you’re driving. It’s just rude.<br />

FOOD:<br />

I hate ketchup. I can’t stand the smell or<br />

anything. I don’t like tomatoes at all.<br />

MODERN LIFE:<br />

People being too serious. I don’t get it when people<br />

can’t take banter.<br />

FASHION:<br />

Flared jeans. I can’t be dealing with them.<br />

SPORT:<br />

Cricket. It’s too long and boring to watch.<br />

WILDCARD:<br />

The M45.<br />

I’m always<br />

driving on<br />

it and the<br />

traffic on that<br />

motorway is<br />

a big pet hate<br />

of mine.<br />

CHRISTMAS HOLIDAY CLUB AT MANSFIELD TOWN FOOTBALL IN THE COMMUNITY<br />

The Christmas period is coming up<br />

and <strong>Mansfield</strong> <strong>Town</strong> Football in the<br />

Community will be running their<br />

holiday club for three days starting<br />

from Monday 20 December through<br />

to Wednesday 22 December.<br />

Open for ages five to fifteen, the<br />

sporting activities are designed and<br />

delivered by an expert coaching team<br />

with the aim of being fun, interactive,<br />

and challenging for the children<br />

involved.<br />

Suitably skilled children will be<br />

recommended to the academy. It<br />

is important to note there are two<br />

activities for this Christmas provision.<br />

On Monday 20 December there will<br />

be an organised trip to a Christmas<br />

pantomime at the <strong>Mansfield</strong> Palace<br />

Theatre to watch Sleeping Beauty.<br />

This trip is part of the Junior SSA<br />

membership and is free of charge for<br />

members.<br />

Ice creams are provided at the interval<br />

and a Christmas gift will be given to<br />

each member. The meeting time is<br />

1:30pm outside the Palace Theatre.<br />

The show will begin at 2pm.<br />

WHO’S WHO<br />

Children can be collected at the<br />

Palace Theatre between 4:30pm-<br />

5:00pm depending on when the<br />

show finishes. This provision is for<br />

children only and parents will not be<br />

able to attend. All participants will be<br />

supervised by the FITC staff.<br />

For children four and below, an adult<br />

will have to attend and must purchase<br />

a ticket through FITC’s Joeanne<br />

Shuttleworth. She can be contacted<br />

at Joeanne.Shuttleworth@<br />

mansfieldtownfitc.net.<br />

On December 21-22 the Christmas<br />

holiday club will begin with two<br />

full days of football action. Doors<br />

will open at One Call Stadium from<br />

8:30am and close at 4:00pm. The<br />

activities will cost £16 per day.<br />

<strong>Mansfield</strong> <strong>Town</strong> FITC has formed a<br />

partnership with <strong>Mansfield</strong> Soup<br />

Kitchen. By donating a Christmas<br />

shoebox containing gifts such as<br />

gloves, socks, toothpaste, toothbrush,<br />

deodorant, razors, shower gel,<br />

shampoo and sweets, participants<br />

can attend both holiday club days for<br />

just £25.<br />

The shoeboxes will then be given to<br />

the homeless and donated to the<br />

<strong>Mansfield</strong> Soup Kitchen. Shoeboxes<br />

MUST be donated by Friday 17<br />

December at 12:00pm at the latest.<br />

Any shoeboxes donated after this date<br />

will not be accepted and you will not<br />

be offered the £25 discounted price<br />

for December 21-22. All participants<br />

should bring a packed lunch with<br />

them as well as a drinks bottle.<br />

THE GOLDEN<br />

‘HIS STORY’<br />

ARCHIVE<br />

PROJECTING A PARADE OF GLORIOUS DAYS FROM<br />

THE WORLD’S OLDEST PROFESSIONAL GROUND<br />

From the sublime to the ridiculous<br />

and everything in between, we look<br />

back with a Stags’ hero of the past,<br />

focusing on memorable behindthe-scenes<br />

moments they will never<br />

forget.<br />

Continuing the season with ‘His-<br />

Story’, is former central defender<br />

Tony Kenworthy who made 121<br />

appearances for the Stags from<br />

1986–90, scoring one goal. Most<br />

notably, Tony scored the winning<br />

penalty to defeat Bristol <strong>City</strong> in<br />

the Freight Rover Trophy final at<br />

Wembley in 1987.<br />

When I first signed for the<br />

club, which was on-loan, I<br />

drove over to <strong>Mansfield</strong> <strong>Town</strong> to<br />

meet Ian Greaves and see what<br />

he had to offer. When I arrived, I<br />

was taken to the boardroom – and<br />

there was Ian. He was making<br />

a cup of tea for himself, and he<br />

asked me if I would like one – to<br />

which I replied, ‘Yes please’.<br />

He then proceeded to take the<br />

tea bag out of his own cup and<br />

squeeze it into mine! That was my<br />

cup of tea, and I thought ‘Yes, I’m<br />

going to come here!’.<br />

The culture at <strong>Mansfield</strong> was such<br />

a contrast compared with where<br />

I’d been previously, at Sheffield<br />

<strong>United</strong>. I went from having my<br />

kit ironed and hung up ready in<br />

the changing room, to having an<br />

apprentice, with a ball bag (with<br />

the kit in it), walk into the changing<br />

room and tip the bag up onto the<br />

treatment table. It was a free for<br />

all where everyone would jump<br />

up and get some kit. I remember<br />

my first training session when this<br />

happened – I was left with a red<br />

sock and a green sock!<br />

This typified how it was at the club,<br />

but it was a great mentality – I really<br />

enjoyed my time at <strong>Mansfield</strong>, and<br />

the camaraderie we had!<br />

From one day to the next we didn’t<br />

know what we’d be doing, or where<br />

we’d be training. At the time the<br />

training pitch at Field Mill wasn’t<br />

the best, so we’d end up turning up<br />

at different locations that Ian had<br />

spotted - somewhere, anywhere, he<br />

considered ‘decent’ enough for us<br />

to train!<br />

I remember when we played at<br />

Wembley. Just memories of Ian<br />

giving us a few beers the night<br />

before whilst we sat and listened<br />

to a team talk, then the morning of<br />

the match and Ian was deliberating<br />

whether to have a side parting in his<br />

hair or blow dry it! In fact, we had<br />

arrived a few days before the day of<br />

the final and arranged somewhere<br />

to do some light training. However,<br />

the pitch was not up to it, and Ian<br />

didn’t want to risk anyone getting<br />

injured, so we basically had a few<br />

days off instead. It was such a great<br />

time to play for the club, I really<br />

enjoyed being at <strong>Mansfield</strong>!<br />
