Good work CE. This will put me on 84 (83) with Charlton. When I throw Burton in at the end of November I’ll be quite happy. The remaining ones then become difficult as they are League 2 and teams keep dropping out etcCovered End said:Brilliant. I saw us play Mansfield at home in '78, but never went away.
They are one of 6 I need to tick off.
Morecombe
Cambridge
Newport
Forest Green
Lincoln
Accrington (still gutted I missed that one this season)
Macclesfield
Spurs of course will need to be redone when they finally move2 -
Gah.
Saw them play tranmere when John fortune was on loan at mansfield.
Had always seen it as an ace up my sleeve when comparing with mates on how many grounds we’ve done.

Might go to Sutton v Slough.
Remember this as a localish derby in the mid 60s when both were in the Athenian League. Amongst the first games I went to.
Come on you Rebels!!!1 -
Could be a potential TV game? Tempted to go to this, but waiting to see if date gets re-arranged0

This will be a huge win for Charlton.0 -
Nightmare of a place to get to by train. Alfreton the nearest station and it's a schlep from there. I was ticking the ground off with a mate and they were playing Wimbledon. The few visiting fans who were heading back to the station had to run the gauntlet and we had little option but to join them. I also ran into a squad of Mansfield at a similar visit to Hartlepool where we were first assumed to be Mansfield fans by the police and shepherded into the escort against our wishes and eventually allowed to leave in front of the Hartlepool home guard. As we went through the turnstiles, we were attacked by the locals which forced us back out and we had to go into the visiting end, where the Mansfield fans thought we were locals. We decided that lure of the pub was too strong and left five minutes early!5

By Rail:
One Call Stadium is visible from Mansfield Rail Station. Visiting supporters should leave the station via the footbridge, adjacent to Platform 2. Walk past Burger King, through the retail park, and you will arrive at the North Stand (away end). It should take no longer than five minutes on foot.

Regarding Hartlepool/Mansfield crowd trouble,there is a history of this which dates back to the miners strikes of the 70/80s where the Notts miners refused to back the strikes & the Durham miners did.2 -

Wow sounds great, cant wait!0 -
nice little ground .. Mansfield, mid table, they are the draw specialists of L2 .. they don't score many and concede even less .. I expected them to be higher up the league than they are at present after last season's Steve Evans' spending spree (before he moved to the Posh) .. this won't be easy, but we're due a good cup run (I hope)0

Group of ours went to Mansfield on way back from Chesterfield and got attacked by them unprovoked in a pub. Glasses, snooker balls, chairs the lot. Left a sour taste ever since for those concerned.J BLOCK said:
What happenedThe Organiser said:Sorry to say for some of you, but this will attract plenty of our ‘risk’ group after what they pulled on a group of ours about 10 years back.
Decent away draw butjust a shame for me personally they’re in a new identikit stadium (all-be-it only 3 sides), as the joy of lower league aways for me is going to some of the remaining traditional old grounds out there.

really want to go to this but, should that stupid BBC 'as the goals go in' nonsense happens, then it clashes with Armistice Sunday so no chance of me going, over to you BBC!
So maybe I am0 -
Fancy a giant killing here and a 2-1 win to Charlton

already ticked. we won 3-0 when i went. Alan Dugdale era...anyone care to help me with the year?killerandflash said:Ground tickers will be happy! Nice to get someone new, and a new ground for most. Indeed there will probably be more of us wanting tickets than if we were playing them at home!

I remember the 2-2 at the Valley, we were 2-0 down and playing some awful stuff, Dick Tydeman was getting most of the abuse until he lashed one in from 25 yards. Peacock then equalised and then we got a late penalty which we missed, Peacock again I think.1
