Date: 01/01/18

Where: Meadow Lane

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?

No idea at the minute cos some players are injured but I feel like Duffy and Forte may return as Brisley had that knock at Crawley but still managed to play the next game against Lincoln. As for Ameobi he plays 2 games then gets injured. Fitzsimons, Tootle, Brisley, Duffy, Jones, Alessandra, Hewitt, Yates, Grant, Stead, Forte

If not then: Fitzsimons, Tootle, Brisley, Hewitt, Jones, Hawkridge, Walker, Yates, Grant, Stead, Alessandra

Despite my selection I'd honestly I'd rather play Bird at CB than Hewitt. Hewitt is just not a CB. He really isn't and I hope Nolan realises. 

 

Difficult game, particularly given Vale's great recent form and County's lengthy absence list. In the circumstances I'd be happy with a draw.

Think our home record will be tested , seem on the up do Vale , injuries could be a problem really would like Duffy back Pope is a handful he would target Hewitt or and the youngster Bird  isn't ready I don't think , a draw I think in what is a tricky game .
