Game 34 - The Daggers (H)

Team: Dagenham & Redbridge

Date: 01/03/16

Where: Meadow Lane

What line-up should Jamie Fullarton 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.

After a run of 3 straight losses, Notts still need 4 wins from the last 14 games to be safe from playing the likes of Woking, Bromley and Barrow next season.

Seems easy?....4 from 14....mmmmm

Luckily there are two teams in the division that stink worse than a 6 week-old kipper stuffed down the back of your neighbour's sofa, .........York and Daggers......and we have already lost to one of them recently!!

So now we play the other, a team with a wopping goal difference of -26, 2 worse than York.....surely now is the time to steal all 3 points?

This season has fizzled out into the equivalent of a wet January weekend in Skeggy.....you feel you should be excited, but quite frankly you couldn't give a rat's posterior.

The only thing keeping the season alive, is the thought of a new Grand Poobah at Notts, .......and the hope that a terrace terrorist will launch a rotten tomato from the back of the Pavis stand .........and bounce it off the side of JF's smirking face!

Dagenham are a lower half Conference side who happen to be in L2. If Notts can't beat them at home, I'd be very worried indeed.

If we can't beat these under JF, then we have to worry about relegation as long as JF remains in charge. Moniz would have destroyed them and entertained at the same time, I doubt we will be seeing that under JF. 

I actually feel positive about our approach to these.

We have to go into the game confident, it's important - I didn't feel that way about Plymouth but losing 1-0 isn't that bad. If we can dust ourselves off and throw on some surprises, I think we should have more than enough. I just don't want to see anything negative, so I will give the club my full support - I will avoid making comments to JJ and Cobby about people who might be letting us down (in my opinion).

Lets get all the points and stop this current downfall. COYP!

As long as he picks a similar side to Saturday we should be alright. We need to be more mobile and that in itself should bring us the  wins we need. I don't actually think we need 4 wins, 2 wins and a draw should be plenty, as that will be 46 points and I can't see York getting 20 points from 13 games.

The bottom two may well fail to get 40 points, never mind 50. We'll be fine.

We badly need a home win, and really nothing less than 3 points is acceptable from games like this. That brings its own kind of pressure though. Hopefully the fans will support the team for 90 minutes instead of adding to that pressure.

Dagenham are last but have conceded only 3 more goals than Notts. That shows how bad Notts have been defensively........We have scored 14 more goals than them......we have won 7 more wins than them......we have 19 more points than them.......if we aren't odds on favorites at the bookies, then I'll be shocked.....

I hate to say but if we lose, it will just show us up.

History has taught me that whenever Notts are odds on favourites at home, it pays to back the opposition.  The worrying stat is that Daggers have gained 16 of their 20 points so far away from home.  We have struggled to manage a shot let alone a goal at home under Fullarton, so I don't have a good feeling about tomorrow.  Hope I'm wrong, but I think D&R look way overpriced at 7/2.

I actually feel quite positive about this game......surely we wont lose to the worst team in the division?

Notts to win by 2 clear goals................3-1

I think I've had a lucky escape, as my son won't be going tonight and I really don't like attending games by myself - luckily I've talked JJ into going.

I'm still not nervous about the performance, though I am a bit about what reaction we can expect. I don't like the current mood, or some of the comments directed at players or even amongst supporters. If we keep the ball down, work it well and sensibly I am sure we can get something out of the game! it's important the players don't invite any pressure onto themselves. COYP!

Not long now.

we will either make them look good or we will do well, notts dont seem to do anything other than the two.

That's a very point from @Elite_pie - I hadn't actually checked their home and away form. Incredible that they have only picked up four points at home all season (one of them against us)! They are actually above us in the table for away form. All the same, we should have enough to beat the worst team in the League. COYP!

Im at Hannover Wolfsburg tonight. Please keep me posted on the game.

ok....half-time 0-0.....now I'm getting nervous

How can we be drawing with the worst team in the division......by far.....at half-time?

BBC has them with more possession plus more shots on goal!

0-0 ..utter disgrace....utter rubbish...utter shambles....

 

 

 

Well what can I say....last 4 games = 1 point, against the bottom team in the division......I need a lie-down

 

Sorry, I gave JF a chance, but enough is enough. JF OUT. Absolutely terrible, hanging on to a draw at home against the bottom side. Shocking, shocking stuff. 


Is this gonna be Ray Trew's parting gift? Get us relegated again? Should never have been appointed, get JF out ASAP before we are playing conference football!!
 

Daggers had 11 shots on target......we had 3......and we were the home team?

It really was bad, the game was crying out for Stanley, hoof hoof hoof, it was a very boring game
