Last updated : 06 December 2006 By Editor
In a first league win in five games, the Stags showed exactly what they can do, with a fine performance, and boss Peter Shirtliff was delighted with the showing, telling the Mansfield CHAD after the game "That was a good result for us on a horrible night with a swirling wind, so credit to the players.

"It has been coming. We didn't get a point in November after such a good October. The commitment we've shown in the last couple of games shows we can hopefully move on from here.

"I was pleased with our first half. We came out the traps very quickly and got an early goal which really settled us down. It was nice to score twice from open play after our recent problems.

"It was just the performance we needed against a side up at the top and playing well."
