BRIAN BARRY-MURPHY:

“ Mansfield “


“They’re a very good team with an exceptional manager and have shown throughout the course of season how good they are," Brian began. "We’re looking forward to it very much, however It’ll be a real tough challenge but one we’re ready for.

“Mansfield have shown how dangerous they can be and their record in the cup competitions would have probably grabbed everyone's attention. We knew ourselves a lot about them before we played them at home, so we know of their clear strengths and we’ll try our best to overcome those.”







During City’s recent fixtures against Port Vale and Northampton Town, Brian has rotated the squad and spoke of his thoughts ahead of this weekend.

He added: “It’ll be the pretty much the same squad as last week for us. We will see in training what we think is the best players for the game will be but it’s like I said, there will be no messing about from us and we are aiming try to do our best in the game to get three points.

“We’ve trained very seriously and are preparing for the game in a manner that our supporters would expect. I’m very pleased with the condition of the players and how we’ve looked in training in so, we will be trying our best to produce a good performance to trying to win.”






The boss spoke on the travelling support due to travel to the One Call Stadium on Saturday, in another sold out away end.

He concluded: “It’s another genuine chance to try to give them an exceptional day out and to reward the incredible support we’ve had throughout the course of the season. They’ve travelled so many long distances and incurred many different expenses.

"To try and give them one more memorable away day together this season before we break for our summer holidays is a huge bit of motivation for us all.”
