Game 46 - The Lilywhites (A)

Team: Bromley

Date: 29/05/2021

Where: Hayes Lane

What line-up should Ian Burchnall 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.

This one will be interesting. We sit in fifth, which would ensure a home tie in the play-off quarter finals. Only Wrexham can overtake us, and only in the event that they win at Dagenham and we lose at Bromley. A point will do for us. Finishing sixth wouldn't be the end of the world, but it would mean missing out on the twelfth man at Meadow Lane.

There's also lots riding on it for Bromley - they can only reach the play-offs if they win. So it could be a more open game than our last encounter.

This has a bit of a phoney war feel to it as we've already qualified, but we really shouldn't let our standards drop now. I'd like to see Rawlinson in there if he's fit again so he's sharp for the play-offs, and maybe a few moe minutes for the likes of Sam and Griffiths too.

Tomorrow will be a massive test for us. Win and we are riding the wave, probably to the final and even beyond.

Lose and Bromley have managed to stop the train in its tracks at the wrong time, and done themselves a good chance of being involved.

Confidence is massive here as I say, we need the win as that will push us on and give the players the “we can beat anyone” feeling.

Notts need to keep the momentum going. A loss wouldn't be the end of the world but it would kill the feel good factor we are experiencing at the moment. The fans deserve a home game in the playoffs. IB knows this and he'll deliver IMO. 

Don’t like this kickoff time! Sat here thinking the games on in two hours. What can I get done before then. Messed up my Saturday routine! ????????

Notts could have been out of sight by half time. Didn't really show up in the 2nd half. Didn't deserve anything out of the game. 

As I told already, Notts squad is just good not enough
But let's still hope 

I don't know exactly what to expect from Chesterfield, but I'm glad we're not playing Bromley. They are a tough side to face.

Actually, I would not be surprised if Bromley get through to the final. Very well organised and although Notts should have been well ahead by H/T. Bromley have that resilience in defence

Bromley are the dark horses for sure. They managed the game brilliantly yesterday. Their consistency is impressive. They don't panic.
