Palmer back in to start for sure.

I wouldn't mind unchanged apart from that, we won the second half with Palmer on after all.

Jarvis to come on, Jodi as well if he's fit.

Notts need to show more intensity from the word go against Colchester & put them under pressure.

I'd play the starting eleven that took the field against Harrogate, but I would play Palmer instead of Iorpenda & put Iorpenda on the bench.

We know that Martin Paterson can change things around if things aren't working in the first half. Hopefully that won't happen this time.

I'm hoping for a convincing win on Saturday. A 3:1 win for Notts would be a great result & should keep Notts in the top four.

Proud to be a supporter for 58 years & counting of the oldest professional football club in the World. COYP

For two home games running we've seen the same slow-paced Maynard-style ball for entire first halves which hasn't been the possession with a purpose we were promised.

There hasn't been a particularly intense press against us, in fact they've been very willing to see our defenders with the ball at their feet. Macari and Bedeau haven't injected any positivity or adventure into our play. Balls across the backline or to the feet of tightly marked wing backs in deep positions won't get us anywhere at all. We have to have the option of being dynamic down the middle. There's cover if those wide CBs surged forward and committed players and I think we really need them to do that a lot more.
