JOHN RADFORD 

Welcome to Phil Wallace, 

Stevenage’s chairman, to One 

Call Stadium for this afternoon’s 

match. 

Despite the last two results not going 

in our favour, our season remains 

very much alive and our hopes of 

success this term a real possibility. 

It was always probable that our 

magnificent run in the league would 

come to a halt at some point and 

now our endeavours turn towards 

starting another similar sequence of 

the results in the business end of the 

season. 

Our management and players should 

take further encouragement ahead of 

these final 12 games, knowing 

that we - as supporters - will be with 

them every step of the way in our 

positive and raucous backing from 

the stands. 

It was great to see another bumper 

crowd in our last home game against 

Exeter. The attractive football which 

we’re playing and the high number 

of points we’re acquiring seemed 

to have generated great excitement 

around the Town and I’m hopeful 

that our home attendances will 

continue to increase between now 

and the end of the season. 

We have a great incentive this 

afternoon as we target a club record 

of 11 consecutive home victories in 

the Football League. 

Very best of luck to Nigel and the 

players.

CLOUGH 

Welcome to Stevenage manager hamstring, so we were without him 

Steve Evans along with the also and Elliott Hewitt, who’s been 

staff, players and supporters from excellent for us this season, needed 

Hertfordshire for this afternoon’s a breather. 

game. 

We’re heartened to be back at 

home today and we’ll be doing our 

utmost to set a new club record of 

11 consecutive home victories in the 

Football League. 

After enjoying some excellent results 

on the road in recent weeks and 

months, the two recent away games 

– at Tranmere and Port Vale - have 

caught up with us to some extent, 

though we contributed to our own 

downfall with the manner in which 

the goals were conceded. 

We must get back to not conceding 

goals, which we did so superbly 

during our 14 game unbeaten run in 

the league. 

In our most recent game, at Vale 

Park, we were in the game for long 

periods after going 1-0 up and a very 

rare error from Nathan Bishop let 

Vale back into the match. 

At 1-1, we were in the ascendancy 

and missed a great chance 

through George Lapslie. A minute 

or two before they scored the 

second goal, Vale sliced the ball 

onto their own crossbar; an inch or 

two lower would have seen us retake 

the advantage. Those fine margins 

had been going in our favour, but for 

the past two games. 

In mid-week, we were without Lucas 

Akins and Stephen Quinn who both 

came off injured in our previous 

match at Tranmere four days 

previously. Matty Longstaff felt his 

One of the plus points was to have 

James Perch play 90 minutes and 

the performance of Kieran Wallace 

in central midfield was very good as 

well. 

We’ll be doing everything possible 

to break the aforementioned club 

record today as we aim to embark on 

another productive run in these last 

12 matches. 

Enjoy the game.

NEWSDESK 

STAGS WELCOME DIABETES UK TO ONE CALL STADIUM 

Leading charity Diabetes UK and 

Mansfield Town Football Club are 

hoping to show diabetes a red card 

with a matchday event at One Call 

Stadium. 

As the Stags host Stevenage today, 

Diabetes UK employees and 

volunteers will be there to offer 

guidance, information and support 

on all things relating to the 

condition. 

Roy Bustin, Diabetes UK Volunteer 

co-ordinator in the Midlands, is 

delighted to be working alongside 

the club in giving advice regarding 

the condition. 

“We are delighted to be working with 

Mansfield Town Football Club on this 

health awareness event,” he said. 

“Diabetes is a serious condition, but 

there is a lot that people can do to 

prevent or delay the onset of type 2 

diabetes, or put their type 2 diabetes 

into remission by making healthier 

food choices, being more active and 

losing weight, especially around the 

middle, if you need to. 

“We can also chat to people living 

with all types of diabetes who want to 

know how to manage the condition 

better, what support is out there and 

more about our work. 

“The last couple of years have been 

very hard for everyone. Demand for 

our services is increasing all the time. 

Working closely with Mansfield Town 

and engaging with their supporters 

about diabetes is a great way of 

helping people to make changes 

which benefit their health in both the 

short and long term.” 

Stags’ goalkeeper Nathan Bishop 

expressed his support for the charity. 

“We’re really pleased to be 

supporting Diabetes UK and 

look forward to welcoming their 

representatives to One Call Stadium 

today,” said Bishop. 

“It’s important that we all understand 

as much as possible about this 

condition, and the visit of Diabetes 

UK will enable them to inform our 

supporters of the causes, symptoms, 

complications and treatments 

associated with the condition.” 

There are an estimated 4.9 million 

people living in the UK with diabetes 

- a condition where there is too much 

glucose in the blood because the 

body cannot process it properly. 

If not managed carefully, both type 

1 and type 2 diabetes can lead to 

devastating complications, including 

sight loss, amputation, kidney failure 

and stroke. There is currently no 

known cure for any type of diabetes. 

Diabetes UK supporters will also 

be fundraising on the day, so any 

support you can offer will go towards 

vital work including research, 

campaigning, education and 

helpline.

CHANGE 

SOCKS FOR 

DOWN’S 

SYNDROME 

AWARENESS 

Mansfield Town Football Club have 

designated today’s clash against 

Stevenage to support World Down’s 

Syndrome Day and will be wearing 

teal instead of amber socks this 

afternoon. 

The club have selected today’s match 

to show support ahead of Down’s 

Syndrome Awareness Week which 

begins on Monday. 

Down’s Syndrome is a genetic 

condition caused by having an extra 

chromosome 21 in some or all the 

body’s cells. Down’s Syndrome is 

marked by growth, developmental, 

and learning delays that vary from 

mild to severe. 

Stags are participating in the 

#LotsOfSocks campaign to raise 

awareness about Down’s Syndrome. 

#LotsOfSocks help us to get people 

talking on World Down Syndrome 

Day (WDSD), celebrated each year on 

21 March. 

The first team will change its colour of 

socks today as part of the campaign. 

If you would like to get involved, all 

you need to do is choose some socks 

that are going to get noticed - they 

might be mismatched socks or your 

craziest and most colourful socks, 

whatever takes your fancy! 

The 21st day of the 3rd month 

(March) signifies the uniqueness 

of the triplication of the 21st 

chromosome which causes Down’s 

Syndrome. 

Many of the members and supporters 

of Down’s Syndrome Association 

have gone above and beyond with 

their fundraising efforts. DSA still 

rely almost entirely on voluntary 

donations, big and small, and they 

are grateful for all contributions. 

Currently, Down’s Syndrome 

Association offer advice, information, 

support and resources about 

any aspect of living with Down’s 

syndrome including prenatal 

support, benefits, education, 

service provision, rights, health and 

well – being, speech, language and 

communication, complex and adult 

needs. 

They also aim to continue driving 

awareness about the condition by 

campaigning and continuing to make 

fundamental changes in our society. 

Down’s Syndrome Association has a 

clear message regarding inclusivity 

and ensuring everyone is a part of the 

community. 

“We’re all missing out if everyone 

isn’t included,” the organisation say. 

“We all love to belong and feel 

included. And after the last couple of 

years, it means more than ever.” 

The club is pleased to support 

Down’s Syndrome Association and 

supporters who wish to learn more

THE 

ACADEMY 

Mansfield Town’s under-18s 

defender, Darien Wauchope, reflects 

on the season so far from a personal 

and team standpoint... 

thought as a team we played 

I very well at the weekend against 

Huddersfield. We started slowly 

in the first 20 minutes, but we got 

back into the game and started 

to play our normal football. After 

that, we dominated the game, 

capitalised on our chances and 

scored five goals. 

The goals we scored were very good 

team goals. There were a lot of 

passes involved and we were very 

clinical against the opposition. We 

took our chances very well and took 

the lead. The goals we conceded 

were quite poor goals, but we can 

work on that in training. 

I am expecting it to be a 

tough game this weekend, 

as Bradford are always a 

good side. They are going 

to have good possession 

of the ball, but we have 

just got to stay compact, 

communicate and take our 

chances like we did against 

Huddersfield, and we will win 

the game. 

It was a great opportunity 

for me starting in the 

game against Leeds 

United under-23s. It 

was good for me and my 

development to come 

into that environment 

with the pro’s. 

It was a very big moment 

to play for the under-23s. 

It shows that the coaches 

have trust and faith in me at 

that high level. It gives me 

a lot of confidence in going 

forward to keep pushing in 

training and in matches. 

As a player, I feel as though I’ve 

improved a lot over the season. I 

feel that every aspect of my game 

has improved, and I have just got to 

keep improving in my second year 

and keep pushing to start for the 

under-23s. 

As a team, I think that we can try and 

push for a top-half finish. We’ve been 

unlucky in some games this season. 

The coaches are mostly made up of 

ex-professional players with a vast 

knowledge of the game, so they’ve 

taught me a lot. Being a defender, 

they’ve shown me a lot of things that 

I can do to improve as a player. 

I hope to get some clean sheets 

under my belt between now and the 

end of the season. We’ve conceded 

some sloppy goals, but we can work 

on it to earn more clean 

sheets.

Ladies’ manager Andi Bell reflects 

on last weekend’s 5-1 victory over 

Rotherham and looks ahead to 

tomorrow afternoon’s County Cup 

semi final at home to Arnold Eagles… 

think we did really well against 

I Rotherham. Every game is a 

must-win for us at the moment and 

it adds a little bit of extra pressure, 

but we performed really well. We 

were a little bit sloppy for their 

goal, but I’m really pleased with 

the performance and we did what 

we needed to do. 

The atmosphere in the squad is really 

good. The girls have been fantastic all 

season in terms of wanting to learn 

and wanting to develop. We know we 

have to work hard, but every time we 

win, it gives us an incentive to win 

the next one. We are in a cup final, a 

semi-final of the County Cup and we 

are still in with a chance of the league 

title, so it is really exciting times in 

training and the group are raring to 

go. 

It is absolutely in our hands because 

of who we have played and who we 

haven’t played, and if we win our 

games, we will win the league. It is as 

simple as that. 

It is a much harder task than it 

sounds in theory. Two of the title 

challengers we have not played at 

all. We’ve probably got the toughest 

run-in out of everyone, but if we win 

all of our games, that is the league 

title for us. 

It is still do-able to win the league, 

but with only one going up from this 

league, it makes it really difficult. You 

could essentially drop a few points 

and you won’t go up, so it is a really 

hard league to get out of. It is in our 

hands, and I am not underestimating 

the hard games still to come which 

will put that added pressure on us. 

The pressure will be on us this 

weekend as we are playing 

opposition from a lower 

league in the County Cup, 

although they are doing 

really well in their 

league and looking 

for promotion into 

our league. 

It is another 

opportunity to get 

into a final, and I 

say to the players 

that there are not 

many opportunities 

to achieve this. We’ll 

be going all out, looking 

to put on a professional 

performance and get into 

another cup final.

FOOTBALL IN THE 

COMMUNITY 

PARTICIPATE IN WORLD 

BOOK DAY 

Mansfield Town Football in the 

Community was actively involved 

in this year’s World Book Day on 03 

March, visiting several partnered 

schools across Mansfield and 

participating in activities with staff 

and Sammy the Stag. Football in 

the Community had the fantastic 

opportunity to join Parkgate 

Academy in the celebrations. 

The children loved meeting Sammy 

the Stag and took the chance to read 

their favourite books to him. 

After an engaging, interactive 

assembly, hosted by Robin Hood, 

WHO’S WHO 

the pupils enjoyed reading with the 

Football in the Community staff. 

Phoebe Eyre, assistant principal and 

key stage two (KS2) lead said: “They 

[the children] will just find that so 

exciting. 

“[It was] really engaging for them. It 

gives them a chance to practice their 

communication skills with a variety 

of people.” 

During their visits in the week, 

Football in the Community also 

distributed 300 books to partnered 

schools across Mansfield to help 

support young readers as part of 

the exciting partnership between 

Premier League Primary Stars and 

the National Literacy Trust. 

Premier League Primary Stars uses 

the appeal of the Premier League and 

professional football clubs to inspire 

children to learn, be active and 

develop important life skills. 

The programme was developed and 

is managed by the Premier League 

Charitable Fund, a funded charity 

that aims to create positive and 

lasting sporting, health and education 

outcomes for children, young people 

and the wider community. 

EASTER HOLIDAY CLUB 

Mansfield Town Football in the 

Community will be continuing the

April and 11 April to 14 April. 

It is important to note that the age 

range for the holiday club has now

The holiday club costs £16 per day 

and will run from 8:30am to 4:00pm

with them a packed lunch and 

a drinks bottle for the day, with 

appropriate clothing to be worn for 

outdoor play.

THE GOLDEN 

‘HIS STORY’ 

ARCHIVE 

PROJECTING A PARADE OF GLORIOUS DAYS FROM 

THE WORLD’S OLDEST PROFESSIONAL GROUND. 

From the sublime to the ridiculous 

and everything in between, we look 

back with a Stags’ hero of the past, 

focusing on memorable behindthe-scenes 

moments they will never 

forget. 

Continuing the season with ‘His- 

Story’ is former defender Bobby 

Hassell, who made 181 appearances 

for the club and scored three goals, 

playing for the successful 2001-02 

team that won promotion to the 

Football League Second Division 

(3rd tier). 

can think of quite a few stories 

“I from my time at the club, but 

I’m pretty sure most of them are 

unprintable! 

ridiculed for my dress sense. It was 

also common for the players to staple 

or super-glue each other’s trainers to 

the changing room floor, and things 

like that. 

To give you an insight into the 

working week during our promotion 

winning season, it went something 

like this. We’d play Saturday and go 

out Saturday night, go out Sunday 

night, go out Monday night, go out 

Tuesday night, have Wednesday off, 

When Stuart Watkiss came in after 

Billy Dearden left, one of the first 

things he did was to take the squad 

away for a week to Portugal. Whilst 

there, training sessions had to be 

cancelled near enough every day 

because all the lads were drunk. It 

was funny because nobody could 

ever stand up, as we’d often only just 

got in from the night before and then 

gone straight to training. I’m sure 

they won’t mind me mentioning, but I 

particularly recall Liam Lawrence and 

Andy White falling over a lot! 

When we came back from Portugal, 

we played Southend (I think) and we 

battered them – bearing in mind we’d 

been on the ale all week too! 

The camaraderie between us all was 

really good and this was boosted by 

the fact we got promoted. 

We’d always be doing daft things, like 

cutting each other’s clothes up. I was 

a major target for this as I was always 

go out Thursday night! This was our 

general routine every week. 

Neil MacKenzie is probably the 

funniest player I’ve ever played with. 

On nights out in town he’d often wear 

a costume, and his favourite was his 

horse head helmet which he’d often 

wear. He got into trouble on a few 

occasions for singing and dancing on 

tables, and being too loud and leery, 

but once the police took off the horse 

head and realised who he was, he 

always got away with it. 

I really enjoyed my time at the 

club and – as it’s 20 years since our 

promotion season – the lads are 

looking to get together to mark the 

occasion. It would be extremely 

fitting if Mansfield was to be 

promoted this season too!”

Front cover: To celebrate our 

125th year, each edition of The 

Stag this season will feature a 

different home shirt from our 

history on its cover. This kit, 

from 2003-04, is sponsored by 

Perry Electrical, who went on 

to sponsor the kit for the next 

four years. Garman and Carlotti 

would make different versions 

of the jersey within this time.
