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.

I hope the lads give their all and end the season on a high.

This match is vitally important for the hosts as they need to win to secure their League status. Even a draw could spell disaster for them. I wouldn't want Hartlepool to slip out of the League because our players are on their holidays already, but I can't see that happening to be fair.

I hope we dont come out with relegation talk, even if we win it will be hard to see a club sent down to the conference. I think it will be a nervous game but it wouldn't surprise me if Notts lost or was on the other end of a beating.

I dunno @CliftonMagpie, we're involved simply because we're playing there on the last day. We just have to remember it's not just Newport fighting for survival. We should give our all to maintain the integrity of the competition, and I think we will. Whether that will be enough for the three points is anyone's guess, the hosts are on form and they and their fans will obviously be up for it.

how often do we end up with wins at the last game? i cant see it.

i do hope hartlepool manage to survive but most wont care as we wont be in it. just hope the coverage is good and we hear a lively performance, if the players perform in holiday mode newport might as well celebrate survival now. we need to make it lively and make them play for it!

Painful performance by Notts in the first half, you would think we was still in trouble. Newport aren't doing much better but why do we keep hoofing the bloody ball?

We need better to see better in the second half.
