Match Thread Colchester V Notts County

[Fan of Big Tone]

So Notts travel to Colchester tomorrow in the hope that we can start a bit of a run going after last Saturday's welcome win.

 

This in my opinion is definitely a match we can win and at least should be looking at getting a point.

 

I am going for a 1-0 win.

 

What are other thoughts?

[Pies4u]

I am far more optimistic after last week's efforts. Steadier performance, much better result and 3 stunning goals.

Our brittle defending remains a concern and the confidence, like the momentum, needs to be maintained.

Certainly a good opportunity to grab that elusive first away victory.

I can sniff at least a point!

I can't go but I hope to be in the chat room. Come on you Piiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeees.

I really think the old adage of who gets the first goal will be telling in our season tbh. I feel that we are on the verge of something special but as Pies4u says the confidence is the big thing and if we get the first goal then I believe we will run out comfortable 3-0 winners and onto an unbeaten 13 point haul between now & the 2nd January 2014. If Colchester get the first goal then I think we'll still get a draw but the unstable confidence will roll into the Bristol City game and carry on through the festive period.

It is certainly a game we can and should win. Like others I feel we may be on the verge of something special happening within the club. We need to win today though, to keep the confidence growing. A team totally bereft of confidence? coming up against a Bristol team with Steve Cotterill in charge, you just know he will want to put one over on us,

 

But my head and heart both say win, 2-1 for me

[GrannyPie]

I hope we can build on last week and continue with another win.

[Pies4u]

Ball in for Haynes. Good move - he's "injured"& not on bench, by all accounts. Otherwise, same team - so, Come on you Piiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeeeees.

[PTID1862]

Absolutely superb, well played lads and well done to all the team at NCFC. We are getting our pride back. Love it

[Fan of Big Tone]

[Fan of Big Tone]

Come on, lets have a double away day!

 

 

And you got your wish @super_ram

 

Well done Rams, looking good for automatic?

[super_ram]

Yes Tony,Six in a row for us.Not at our best and lucky deflected opening goal but will take it.Two in a row now for Notts and away, so should give confidence a massive boost.Also Alfreton came back from a goal down to win 3-1 at Kettering.Brad The Miller is also a happy chappie.Just a pity Ipswich didn't get a goal.All in all a great day .Now to open a bottle and celebrate

I'm literally still excited! We played very well and deserved the win, they wasn't very impressive but could have punished us.

Speechless right now!

Here's Callum McGregor's goal

What a week for Notts - two big hurdles cleared firstly with Derry's first win last weekend, and the long awaited first away win today, and what a way to do it!

 

7 goals scored in 2 games, a rare clean sheet today - only our 3rd in the league so far. Deffinite progress being made. How fantastic would it be to make it 3 in a row next weekend? We can't underestimate Bristol City at all, but a 3rd win would really put the cat amongst the pigions, so to speak.

 

YOOOOUUUUU PIIIIEEESSSSSS

@notts-joe

Any Match ratings?

[Super_Danny_Allsopp]

Sorry for multi post, my laptop is on crack. 

[GrannyPie]

Great result and we deserved the win by all accounts.Let's keep the run going..

[Chris]

I don't think any players didn't give less than 7, our midfield was dynamite and McGregor/Grealish would be given 9's by me. They took the game and created play, Bart was called upon but had very little to do (perhaps he's a 6?)

Personally I don't do this rating stuff, it's far easier when they have a bad game! haha
