Stags Stories with The Chief, Krystian Pearce

Kystian Pearce was a true fans favourite who, thanks to a combination of Graham Coughlan and Covid, never had the chance to say goodbye... until now! The former Stags captain joins us to discuss his five season Stags rollercoaster, where he went from mid table obscurity, to the brink of promotion, before crashing back down again. Serving five very different managers, the centre back cemented his place at the club and watched it evolve, in this eye opening interview he reveals more about a fragile Mansfield Town being turned into promotion favourites, how Steve Evans and his mate Dodgy created a championship environment, when it really went wrong under Flitcroft, why John Dempster didn't gain the players' respect, and how Graham Coughlan's ghosting behaviour led to a baffling exit. The chief also speaks openly and honestly about the Sheffield Wednesday pre-season friendly and the incident of racist behaviour, what really happened and how the long lasting impact went unseen. The views expressed in this broadcast are solely those of the individuals.
