A WIN FOR NOTTS

[Fan of Big Tone 𝕏 @mainstandpie]

That’s a great win for Notts on a pitch that resembled the pitch on our local park. Jatta is back in the goals and Didzy comes off the bench to show how important he is to Notts.

The only downside was Bass going off injured in the first half but Slocombe came on and did what he had to.

Well done Notts, bring on Chesterfield.

Fair play to the team tonight, dug in and secured a really good result. Hopefully that will calm everyone down a bit and give the players a much needed confidence boost.

It was all about playing sensibly and pragmatically tonight given the awful pitch condition and we did it. I mean, I’ve gone for some weekend walks over farmers fields recently and they’ve been in better condition than Grimsby’s pitch, it really did affect the quality of the match.

What a difference McGoldrick makes though, just individual quality that unfortunately the rest of our attacking midfielders can’t get close to. Great to have him back. Just hope Bass is ok, that said Slocombe did well considering he hasn’t played for months either!

I’d like to think Charlie Slater commenting on Sky brought us luck even though his mike went down for most of the second half.

Didzy is back.

The Notts goals from Jatta & a pearler from Didzy tonight.

A vital 3 points. Didzy provided the leadership that we were painfully lacking. Hopefully whatever crisis of confidence that SM is suffering from is also in the past. We are in the mix for automatic promotion. It's there for the taking.

Notts go long. Didzy does the rest.

Going long can be a deadly weapon. Let's see more of it Notts.

We are so lucky to have George Abbott with us this season, I think he will be a star of the future.

The first half might not have been great, but I thought we put in a very assured performance in the second half. I was also pleased to see us continue to be proactive and dictate the game after scoring, rather than sitting back and handing the initiative to the opposition. McGoldrick's goal was beautiful, although I initially thought he should have played Jatta in!

A good away win against a team that could have overtaken us if we'd lost - we're now five points clear of them. Big points, as the Germans would say. Now let's get back in the top three this weekend.
