Players will be lucky if they retain spot - Jackson

AFC Wimbledon boss Johnnie Jackson says anyone selected for Tuesday's League One game with Mansfield Town "needs to know they're lucky" to be in the team.

His comments came after Saturday's 5-0 loss at Sheffield Wednesday - the Dons' heaviest league defeat since losing by the same score at Peterborough last November.

"[It's] a really good thing that we don't have to stew on that for a week," Jackson told BBC Radio London.

"We have to just focus on Mansfield now and pick a team that we feel can hurt them.

"But anyone who's in that team needs to know they're lucky they get the opportunity to start the game, because I don't think anyone can honestly say on the performance [at Hillsborough] they deserve that opportunity.

"When we've had one of these types of days, we've seen a reaction from the group, so I can take a little bit of solace in the fact we normally react in a really positive way and that's what we need to do.

"We've got two home games now to try to right some of the wrongs."

After Wimbledon's game with Mansfield, they will host Wycombe Wanderers on Saturday.
