When we travelled to Field Mill to face Mansfield in a 3rd division fixture

Stan Andersons team after a rocky start to the season are starting to put it together on the pitch & with no defeat since 2nd October have gone on a 4 game unbeaten run, winning 3 of those games, Mansfield game followed suit with a 9 goal match with Boro running out 5-4 winners

John O'Rourke & Derrick Downing got a brace each with John Hickton

John O'Rourke was leading our scoring charts with 9 so far
The goals from Derrick Downing & John Hickton were their 1st away goals for the Boro

I still think that was my first season watching the Boro. But, for some reason I thought I was going before the world cup, but I would have been too young.


My clouded mind thinks it was Workington Town in the Boys end.
