A WIN FOR NOTTS 

 

[Robbie]

What a great winning evening for the graduates.

The team absolutely deserved the win tonight. The frustration of Saturday is long gone. This is a tremendous win, against a league one side & Stuart will be absolutely delighted.

Great to see Rod McDonald return and play so well in that first half, with Cundy doing well too, Notts are going to have some competition for places in their defense.

A Great Win for the Magpies and Congratulations to the Five young Men from the Notts Academy. Well Done Lads.

I am pleased for Riley Reynolds for assisting Kellen Gordon. Reynolds played for 76 minutes, while James Sanderson played for over 45 minutes. Madou Cisse played the full game. It was interesting to see Sam Slocombe captain the team. It was a very good win for Notts, who had a vastly changed side.

Good win for Notts, with a lot of young special talent in the team. It’s great the win came with so many of our younger players featuring. It’s also nice to see Sam Austin on the scoresheet.

During the second half Burton tried to save the match by putting on more of their first team players as the second half progressed, but the Notts team held firm in defence to win the match

A win and no injuries. We'll take that. I'd prefer knockout but the powers that be would rather the U21 sides get 3 games.

I hate to be a killjoy but matches like this, do highlight the big difference for our youngsters to be "1st team ready". However, I though Reynolds was quite good, his tenacity to win the ball. Loved the build up to our first goal

Slocombe - 6.5 - Made some key saves and reflex shot stopping, something he is good at. The usual heart in mouth / almost monumental f-up in the first seconds, couple of flaps.

Cisse - 7.5 - Really impressed. Lots of pace and put a few good balls into the box. Tired towards the end. 
Cundy - 5.5 - Lots of mistakes with the ball at his feet. Should have cost us - didn't. 
McDonald - 8 - Really impressive half. Won everything, passing excellent, stepped out on occasion. 
Chicksen - 7 - Solid. Did everything he needed to.
Gordon - 7.5 - A menace down the left and took his goal well.

Hinchy - 6.5 - Solid if unspectacular. Tired.
Austin - 7 - Bundle of energy. 
Reynold - 6.5 - He was tidy, contributed well. Tired in latter stages 
Grant - 7 - Really tidy at times. How he missed that chance, though.
Brown - 6 - Largely anonymous. Expected more.

Macari - 7 - Solid when he came on.
Tsaroulla - 6.5 - Did his job.
Adifeh - N/A - Didn't see too much of him.
Sanderson - 6.5 - Ran after everything. Didn't always come off for him, but he was busy.
Muir - N/A - Not on long enough, but exciting to see a 15 year old breaking through.
