Adam Murray is 'coping really well' with the test of management, according to Mansfield Town first-team coach Micky Moore.
It has been almost three months since the former midfielder took charge of the club, initially on a caretaker basis.
And he has had much to contend with since then.
"It's all new to him. You'll have your highs and lows but I think he's coping really well," said Moore.
"Results haven't been what we would have liked, but performances have been okay.
"I think we've had 12 league games under Adam's regime and we've been in front six times. But we've only won three, so the other three, we haven't got over the line.
"It's fine lines.
"And then obviously there's the disappointment of injuries.
"These are all the highs and lows Adam has to deal with. He's probably thinking, 'what have I done wrong?'. But he's coping well.
"The lads are really buying into what he wants to do and where he wants to get to."
