Boss Nigel Clough will be anxiously keeping tabs on the weather in Walsall ahead of the club’s planned fixture tomorrow night.

Stags have not played for 17 days following a string of postponements, while Walsall’s game at Southend on Saturday was also postponed.

“We are in such a good run of form and we just want to play,” said Clough. “We have no injuries or suspensions and we just want to play.

“We just hope we will be ok for tomorrow night and we are keeping an eye on the weather.

“Walsall were cancelled late on Saturday so they will want it on. Hopefully they have decent cover and manpower to get the game on.”

With so little football recently Clough admits he is unsure how much his players may have been affected.

“It's not a case of what we expect from Walsall, but what to expect from us, which we are a little unsure of because of the break,” he said.

“We will be raring to go, but it's how much the break has affected us and we won't know that until after the game.”
