Torquay are on a decent run of form. They have only lost one of their last 7 games. They won their last 2 games 4-0 against Aldershot and 3-0 against Weymouth. To be brutally honest, both these sides are poor so it's not a surprise. I think it will be a tough game for Notts. I'd take a draw given the run of fixtures we have to end the season. A win would be amazing.

Think we should be winning this, Torquay not the team they were, but with Notts you just never know

Abysmal

Take the beating and move on. We should make the playoffs but we need to be fully focused.

Dreadful.

But that awful first-half set the tone. Hearing that we couldn’t even win the 4th ball in our own penalty area sums it up. Then suddenly you think we’re going to get something when it gets 2-1 but we just implode. It’s been the tale of our season, just when you think we’re about to string a run of wins together we drop an absolute clanger.

And when you lose like that it feels as if all the good work from the last 4 games has come undone. If we’d lost 2-1 we’d have bemoaned the poor first half cos second half (up until about 70 mins) we had some chances. But to just get done like that, I thought we were over that kind of performance. We’re lucky Grimsby drew and Boreham Wood’s shocking run just continues, but in terms of the bigger picture of promotion, after today you can’t help but think it’s a big ask.
