‘Scintillating’ Mansfield Town can get even better believes assistant boss Ben Futcher
With Stags in the top three with just 18 games left, Futcher said: “It’s been a good season when you look at the consistency levels the players have shown to only lose three games.
“Some of the football and the way we try to play, it’s not easy to maintain all the time. But we try to do things right and the players have really bought into it.

“It’s a fantastic feeling. Everyone wants to come in every day. The lads love training and everyone loves being around the club.
“At home games you can feel the fans are right behind you with the atmosphere.
