VIEWS FROM THE DRESSING ROOM
Mansfield Town assistant manager Micky Moore told BBC Radio Nottingham:
Stags control own destiny - Moore
"All the results below us have gone for the team today. We wanted to get to 80 points, which is what we've got. We've got a foot in it now.
"We know if we get three or four more points, mathematically we're near enough there. It hasn't happened today mathematically but we're still in a strong position.
"We're not in control of the other teams. What we've always said is 'stay in control of your own destiny' and that's what we've done."
