I feel the games winnable but I do have that feeling that Lincoln City came last Saturday thinking the same and we made them work. The key would be to control the game and remove any sort of pressure from the back, I think Ryan Schofield needs to start because he's actually improved things quite a lot for me. He's always speaking to the defenders and appears to have a mutal understanding with whoever plays in the CB positions. Jon Stead can't start on his own, Craig Mackail-Smith for me will be a live wire - getting him fired up could see him create chances or even score them. I agree, as I mentioned above it's important we go into the Forest Green Rovers game with a mindset of working hard. The away performances this season have lacked, especially considering the following and support given. Hopefully we'll see improves made here, yet for me I would be more confident if the game was played at Meadow Lane. That said, I do think we can win.

I went to the game saying whenever asked about the score, it will either end 1-0 to Notts or 3-1 to them. My heart said we could win, my head was nervous and cautious due to the mistakes previously. This was a team performance and the standard we should have seen sooner. Man of the Match is hard due to this, however Craig Mackail-Smith worked tiredlessly and he's a lot like Jon Stead but a little more direct. Seriously seeing him chase dead balls made me feel proud, the team worked well. It was nice to the players expressing themselves, Lincoln never deserved the penalty - it was a dive for me and I'm pleased they snuffed. I do think Ryan Schofield would have saved it if it was on target, he did very well. In fact all the player did, Rob Milsom looked like a new player. I hope this is the start of the upturn.

There's nothing wrong with David Vaughan if he's given the chance to settle and has harder working players around him, Michael Doyle should offer him that and I feel they would make a good partnership - along with Mitch Rose. The signings gives the club a lot more quality, but they don't change much. Most seem to fit the formation Neal Ardley has been working with, so I don't expect massive changes.

I don't want to see Notts play defensive football, so being too deep would really be annoying - unless Ardley managed to get the players countering attacks. I still feel that inviting Lincoln City to play further up the field would be a huge mistake, and one that could cause our defence heaps of trouble. There's got to be a fine balance, as we could do well if 6-7 players gave their all as a team. If only a handful do their upmost, then Lincoln will thrive. Creatively I would like to see David Vaughan in the middle, alongside an engine but not Rob Milsom (please he's been woeful over the last x games). Hopefully we can see what Rose has to offer the club, he could do the job well. Enzio to the side, with someone else doubling up on the right. More importantly Jon Stead needs a partner, he needs someone who can feed him to ball and take off the pressure he naturally finds. Just got to work hard.

I wonder how tense other fans feel? Today's a must perform and a must win game, a draw would be okay but failing to get 3 points would be massively disappointing. The players need to fight more and show more determination, it's okay for the club and certain players to ask us fans not to write them off - yet where's the sign that they will return the backing? Most fans I know would always give their support. Today could open a door or slam one in our faces, I feel for those attending and I hope they can generate a fantastic atmosphere. I am sure they will remind the club that we won't go down without a fight, even if the players are too soft to respond or play with pride. Now is the time to step forward, as I do honestly believe that playing well against Yeovil could see us grab the first away win since Macclesfield. I won't be listening to the game, I feel sick. The fear of relegation is starting to creep in but I'll be sending positive vibes through my friends.

I actually feel like Notts can get something from this game, Yeovil are a real Jekyll and Hyde team at home. The big question is can Notts put together a convincing performance good enough to make them struggle? I think it's possible, if we can get two goals early on in the first half - I do think the game will favour us. However, most likely the game will be decided in the second half. I just hope we can keep Jon Stead fired and up for causing some trouble, as for me he's the player most likely to score. COYP!
