Win and we are in, the playoffs that is. I think we will win and in some style. 3-0 to Notts.

Playoff spot secured. 4th place is still up for grabs. Bromley away next weekend will have the feel of a playoff game which is good practice for Notts. Gets us ready for the real playoffs.

Excellent performance, three nil was flattering to Weymouth. Perhaps a bit wasteful now and then, but Weymouth were saved by the bar a couple of times too. Great entertainment, thoroughly enjoyed it. We look like a different team. 

So now we need a point at Bromley to get fifth. In a way it's good that something is riding on it, otherwise there's a temptation to field a weakened team and maybe lose some momentum.

well played

I just can’t quite believe the transformation from a few weeks ago. We could’ve won 6-0.

Brindley and Chicksen part of back three bombing forward, it's mad to see! Brindley carries the ball so well and Chicksen slots some lovely balls through for Miller. Reeves and O’Brien making late runs into the box. Wing-backs playing high. And Rodrigues and Wootton linking up well. It’s proper attacking football.

Great that we’re in the play-offs now too. Got to solidify that 5th place but whoever we get we’ll have a real go at them.

Ruben Rodrigues stole the show in my eyes, he was absolute class and started off looking to break a very poor Weymouth side down.

They played like we do when we have no clue, defensively poor and no creativity to get in in goal. However, I do feel our midfield bossed them but we could've won by a much higher scoreline.

Superb team performance but Rodrigues would be my Man of the Match.

i thought i had commented on this on the way home, it felt like a true performance by notts and one which sent a message that we wanted to secure the playoffs. the hard work has not finished but what a fantastic team performance. i thought miller was class, he got stuck in and made a right nuisance of himself but i do think rodders made the biggest impact. hes keen to keeping his scoring going.
