What line-up should Kevin Nolan 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.

It's one of those games I would naturally expect us to win but our form is that good at the moment, I honestly feel it would end up as a draw.

I'll say 2-2 for my prediction.

Its hard to see how we can go wrong, Notts look very good on paper and under Kevin Nolan we play as a tight unit. I am not sure how Crewe are doing right now or what type of form they are in but I do feel its for us to continue the improvement. There's not much attention needed for the squad, it will all be preparation and tactics.

I am looking forward to seeing us sell out our allocation. 

 

Sounds like what i felt would happen did, both us and them cancelled each other out - I should have placed a bet on the score prediction. [emoji16]

Happy with the draw.

Was it genuinely a penalty? BBC live text said dive and no one else is commenting on it. Not saying I believe the BBC there, just want to know how clear it was

The BBC live text is simply a factual report based on the decisions the referee makes.  It will be interesting to see on the highlights.

What right do you have to tell me I'm wrong?  You're not my Granddaughter.

Leigh Curtis said it wasn't a dive, also many of our own fans on Twitter have said that it wasn't a dive.

Overall a draw isn't bad, yes it bursts a few bubbles but its a point at the end of the day.

"Strive not to be a success, but rather to be of value."

I haven't seen it but it's not worth stressing over. That would be different if we were still in the mire though. It's a penalty when the ref blows.

Fun fact: in Germany, when nothing is at stake in a match/season you are said to be playing for the "golden pineapple".

Abit of bad luck and bad defending, a points better than nothing onto the next one..

I feel sorry for Haydn Hollis, he's been a shinning example of professionalism since Kevin Nolan came in as our manager. He's worked hard to secure his place and it seemed he had proved some people wrong, however his control and weak pass wasn't good - it should be accepted as a mistake.

I'm not sure why when he does well people eat humble pie but one poor performance/terrible mistake, then he's labelled 'release material'.

Defenders should never pass with their weak foot, they should never run with the ball - especially when they're out of position but as I say, it's a mistake we all make them.

@Elite_pie I know mate, that's why I was asking - the highlights don't show it , but Nolan sounds pretty pissed off about it. Was it a genuine penalty? 

why have notts cut this from their highlights?

even sky has omitted this from theirs, do these people know what fans want to see?
