Mansfield Fans To Stage Protest

Mansfield Town's four main supporters groups are to unite on Saturday for a protest against current owner Keith Haslam.

TEAM Mansfield, Stags Fans For Change, Stags Supporters Association, and the Ollerton Stags Supporters Club will join forces for a protest outside the ground prior to Saturday's match with Dagenham, before continuing with the protest during the game inside the ground.

The supporters claim that Haslam has lined his own pockets during his 14 year ownership of the club, and is asking an unrealistic amount of money for the club. Current chairman James Derry is the only acceptable bidder to Haslam, and has complained publically about the length of time it is taking for the deal to be completed.

Haslam himself has responded to the announcement of the protests today by stating that he will never attend another home game - a decision, he claims, made after the last home match on the 15th September.
