JOHN RADFORD<br />
Welcome to Clem Morfuni,<br />
<strong>Swindon</strong> <strong>Town</strong>’s chairman, to<br />
One Call Stadium for this evening’s<br />
game.<br />
Despite our cup exit on Saturday, I<br />
was so proud of our club at full-time.<br />
Our players’ endeavours - most<br />
notably in the last hour of the game<br />
- were exceptional and should give<br />
us great heart as we head into the<br />
second half of our league campaign.<br />
I thought we were desperately<br />
unfortunate not to win the match<br />
against a good Championship side,<br />
given the amount of chances we<br />
created in the second period.<br />
Our players and management should<br />
be proud of their efforts, not only<br />
from Saturday’s match, but in the two<br />
previous rounds against League One<br />
opposition.<br />
Our supporters have thoroughly<br />
enjoyed this season’s cup run and<br />
I was greatly encouraged by our<br />
bumper crowd at the weekend of<br />
7297, the highest home attendance<br />
since our League Two play-off semifinal<br />
against Newport County in May<br />
2019.<br />
My hope is that many in Saturday’s<br />
crowd will return to One Call Stadium<br />
to back our boys in what is set to be a<br />
fascinating second half of the season.<br />
Thank you for your outstanding<br />
support.<br />

CLOUGH<br />
Welcome to <strong>Swindon</strong> <strong>Town</strong> The cup run has been brilliant,<br />
manager Ben Garner, along with three great games, but the<br />
with the staff, players and fans next 24 league matches are what<br />
from the County Ground for this matters now, starting with tonight’s<br />
evening’s match.<br />
encounter.<br />
Our FA Cup journey ended on<br />
Saturday following a cracking cup tie<br />
against Middlesbrough, but our effort<br />
and play to get back into it, against<br />
a good Championship side, was<br />
exceptional.<br />
We weren’t anywhere near the levels<br />
we could be inside the opening thirty<br />
minutes, but were brilliant within the<br />
last hour of the match and there’s a<br />
very good argument to say that we<br />
could have won the game.<br />
We knew that if we got one goal back<br />
– like we did against Hartlepool<br />
here on Boxing Day - we<br />
would be back in the<br />
game, especially with<br />
the vocal support of<br />
the home fans.<br />
We made it<br />
uncomfortable for<br />
them and to get so<br />
close to winning the<br />
game left us with<br />
mixed emotions at<br />
the end.<br />
We’ve not managed<br />
at too many clubs where<br />
home supporters stay<br />
behind to give you an<br />
ovation for effort and<br />
quality alone, regardless of<br />
the result, but that seems<br />
to be the case here. It’s<br />
really good for the players<br />
to hear and gives us much<br />
encouragement.<br />
Thank you for your support and enjoy<br />
this evening’s game.<br />

Stags under-18s’ defender Cody<br />
Collins discusses life at the club’s<br />
academy and his hopes for the rest<br />
of the season…<br />
We’ve got quite a young team.<br />
A lot of the second-year<br />
scholars have gone out on loan.<br />
There have been under-23s games<br />
for us to play in as a result of that and<br />
playing in those have been a good<br />
experience for some of us younger<br />
lads.<br />
We learn from playing alongside first<br />
team players such as Richard Nartey.<br />
We can take what we learn from<br />
players like him into our under-18s’<br />
games and help some of our younger<br />
lads in that side in the same way that<br />
players like him have helped me.<br />
It’s a first-team environment playing<br />
in the under-23s’ games. You’re<br />
constantly surrounded by<br />
first-team players and<br />
being able to see what<br />
that’s like is really helpful.<br />
From getting minutes<br />
in those games, you<br />
see the difference from<br />
THE<br />
ACADEMY<br />
playing in an under-18s’ environment<br />
and I think it’s helping to further<br />
the development of us lads who are<br />
involved in those matches.<br />
The coaches give us a lot of<br />
honesty and prepare us for being a<br />
professional footballer. They make<br />
it as realistic as they can for us in<br />
training and remind us to always<br />
train how we play.<br />
We’re told to always give maximum<br />
effort in everything we do and work<br />
as hard as possible so that when<br />
we do go over to the first-team it’s<br />
normal to train and play like that<br />
every single day.<br />
Personally, I want to keep playing<br />
in the under-18s every week and<br />
carry on where I left off playing in the<br />
under-23s’ games.<br />
I’ll be aiming to continue<br />
getting minutes and starts<br />
for them throughout the<br />
rest of the season.<br />
Hopefully I will keep<br />
doing well and keep<br />
enjoying it.<br />

People who live their life through social media. I’m not<br />

<strong>Mansfield</strong> <strong>Town</strong> Ladies’ manager<br />
Andi Bell provides the latest update<br />
on her side’s season…<br />
Recently we’ve drawn a couple<br />
of games in the league against<br />
Notts County and Oughtibridge just<br />
prior to Christmas.<br />
It was a little bit disappointing<br />
dropping points in those games as<br />
we’re looking to continue our aim of<br />
challenging for the league title.<br />
I think in the Oughtibridge game,<br />
in particular, we were worthy of all<br />
three points and just needed to be<br />
more clinical.<br />
We’ve made our eventual aim a<br />
little bit more difficult but we’re still<br />
unbeaten and there are plenty more<br />
games to come.<br />
We’ve still got to play all the teams<br />
above us twice this season so it’s still<br />
all in our hands.<br />
Being unbeaten at this stage of the<br />
season is a good achievement but<br />
we’ve just got to keep pushing on<br />
now.<br />
It’s been a little bit stop-start in the<br />
past couple of weeks with games<br />
being postponed but we have to keep<br />
going.<br />
There’ll be a lot of fixtures to come.<br />
We had a game against Leicester<br />
called off at the weekend which was<br />
frustrating.<br />
I understand the reasons why<br />
teams at the moment are<br />
having to cancel and are<br />
unable to fulfil scheduled<br />
matches.<br />
We managed to get<br />
ourselves a friendly at<br />
a standard which was<br />
good for us. We played<br />
Lichfield but of course it<br />
was frustrating not to have a<br />
competitive game, particularly<br />
as we haven’t played one for a while<br />
now.<br />
Our facilities at RH Academy are<br />
fantastic and we’re thankful to the<br />
club for that.<br />
I’d like to put on record how good it<br />
is to see the men’s side performing<br />
so well at the minute. They’ve turned<br />
a corner and they’re doing everyone<br />
proud.<br />
We’d love to get people down to<br />
RH Academy for some of our home<br />
games. It would be great to have as<br />
many people there as possible to<br />
support us.<br />
The backing gives everyone an extra<br />
boost and it’s much appreciated.<br />
There’s plenty of tough and exciting<br />
matches to come so getting as many<br />
people to come would be brilliant<br />
for us.<br />

STAGS PLAYER VISITS<br />
In December, there were numerous<br />
visits made by Stags players,<br />
contributing towards a number<br />
of different provisions hosted<br />
by <strong>Mansfield</strong> <strong>Town</strong> Football in<br />
the Community. As well as the<br />
Premier League Kicks programme,<br />
Football in the Community are also<br />
involved in the Premier League<br />
Primary Stars programme. Premier<br />
League Primary Stars uses the<br />
appeal of the Premier League<br />
and professional football clubs to<br />
inspire children to learn, be active<br />
and develop important life skills.<br />
The programme has been developed<br />
by the ‘Premier League Charitable<br />
Fund’, a Premier League funded<br />
charity which aims to create positive<br />
and lasting sporting, health and<br />
education outcomes for children,<br />
young people and the wider<br />
community.<br />
Stags players Danny Johnson and<br />
Oli Hawkins attended one of our<br />
Premier League Primary Stars<br />
sessions at Jacksdale School during<br />
December. This allowed young Stags<br />
fans to meet some of the players<br />
and gain an insight on what it’s like<br />
to be a football player. FITC also<br />
ran PL Kicks sessions at All Saints<br />
Academy, and were treat to a surprise<br />
appearances from midfielder Keaton<br />
Ward and goalkeeper Marek Stech,<br />
who took time to talk to the pupils<br />
in the classroom and answer their<br />
questions.<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<br />
‘His-Story’, is former box-to-box<br />
midfielder Darrell Clarke. A local<br />
lad from Ladybrook, Darrell first<br />
caught the attention of the club and<br />
joined the Centre of Excellence as a<br />
10-year-old. He signed professional<br />
terms in 1995 and scored on his full<br />
home debut.<br />
Darrell went on to make 173 league<br />
and cup appearances for <strong>Mansfield</strong>,<br />
scoring 25 goals.<br />
used to go and watch<br />
“I <strong>Mansfield</strong> as a fan, from a<br />
young age, as my Grandad was a<br />
steward at the club. We’d go and<br />
sit on the old wooden seats in the<br />
Quarry Lane end, singing all the<br />
songs – especially <strong>Mansfield</strong> Magic!<br />
I have a lot of good memories from<br />
my time at the club – especially as<br />
I then went on to play for <strong>Mansfield</strong><br />
until I was 23.<br />
As a member of the Centre of<br />
Excellence – as the youth team set up<br />
was then called - we used to have to<br />
do some extremely menial jobs. The<br />
groundsman at the time, would cut<br />
the grass on the main pitch, and he’d<br />
make us shovel it all up and take it<br />
out onto the training pitch, and tip it<br />
all down the side of the banking!<br />
It was hard graft at the time! I recall<br />
our former youth team manager,<br />
Keith Alexander - he used to put on a<br />
pair of white gloves whenever we’d<br />
tidied up and cleaned a room. He’d<br />
then run his finger along the top of<br />
the door to test that we’d left no dust.<br />
We’d more often than not have to<br />
clean the room again!<br />
We used to have to clean the toilets,<br />
etc, but we always had a good laugh<br />
whatever we were doing. We used to<br />
play a game in the changing rooms<br />
– we’d do kick-ups between us and<br />
whoever ended up dropping the ball<br />
onto the floor was punished by taking<br />
the ball, in a towel, in the back of<br />
the head! We wouldn’t be able to get<br />
away with doing such things these<br />
days!<br />
As a professional there were many<br />
good memories too. I remember once<br />
doing a goal celebration with Lee<br />
Peacock. It was the day of the Grand<br />
National, and we’d said beforehand<br />
if either of us scored I’d get on all<br />
fours, and he’d get behind me as<br />
though he was the jockey and whip<br />
me as though I was a horse. It didn’t<br />
turn out that well – I’m sure you can<br />
imagine what this looked like!<br />
The video footage of this made its<br />
way onto Soccer AM at the time!”<br />

Front cover: To celebrate our<br />
125th year, each edition of The<br />
Stag this season will feature a<br />
different home shirt from our<br />
history on its cover. Sponsored<br />
by Marksman’s Lager and<br />
produced by kit manufacturers<br />
Scoreline, Stags wore a plan<br />
amber jersey in 1988-99, with a<br />
single blue stripe underneath<br />
each side.<br />
