PSF - The Stones (A)

Team: Wealdstone

Date: 16/07/2024

Where: Grosvenor Vale

What line-up should Stuart Maynard opt for? What will be the key areas for the Magpies to get a victory? What do you think the final score will be?

Have your say below, join in with the Pride of Nottingham match discussion.

I would have thought that this will be an emotional return to Wealdsone for Stuart Maynard, being their Head Coach for several years before joining Notts.

Notts will probably field two different sides for both halves once again. 

It was nice to see Jatta partner Morias up front in the previous game. I'm sure Stuart may change partners around & partner Morias with Didzy, & Scott with Jatta this time.

It was good to see us get a clean sheet & a win  against league 1 Wycombe.

Our new players will feature prominently again with the key areas being all over the pitch. We will probably  see a few trialists too.

For me I would like Notts to get another clean sheet & for our strikers to get a few goals too for confidence building.

As a bare minimum, it would be great to keep the unbeaten run going too.

imagine what would happen if wealdstone beat us? all those against stuart maynard would be out, rumours will emerge of him losing on purpose etc. or, people could just accept we are in pre season and results mean nothing.

after the wycombe win, i think this will be another good run out to see how the trialists are doing.

i think sooner or later we may see one or two permanently join us.

@liampie

It would be nice to keep the unbeaten run going, & a clean sheet too.

Wealdsone will be certainly up for this match, so it will be a tough test for us. I don't mind that, so long as we get a good result.

What are the chances of it being streamed live.. I know it's only a friendly but it's a long way down sarf!!!!! 

[Robbie]

Here is the Notts side for the first half.

I asked for Scott to play alongside Jatta and Stuart duly obliged

[Robbie]

 

JATTA!!!!!

You beauty.

Wealdstone 0 Notts 1

It's JATTA AGAIN

It's great to see Alassana Jatta back in the team and putting us 2-0 up so early.

Also, I like that we are playing a squad that wouldn't be far from our starting XI. I assume, we'll still be making changes as each player does need to get some match fitness, but it's good to see that it's started off strongly. Jatta could be earning the number 9 shirt, although I would still give it to Cedwyn Scott.

And both players are featuring together.  

[Robbie]

A good 45 minutes work for JATTA. Two goals both from crosses.

Oh dear. Goal to Wealdstone.

Another win for Notts in the pre season friendlies.

A bit disjointed in the second half after the substitutions, but very good in the first half.

Nice to see Jatta scoring, let’s hope he carries on where Langstaff left off and bags loads of goals.
