That was poor. Automatic promotion is gone after today. Keep playing like this and we won't make the playoffs.
-
Is it too early to be talking about must win games? Given the pace being set by Stockport, I don't think it is. Notts need to win this game and that's just to stay within touching distance of the playoffs. Notts have an excellent home record. Grimsby have a poor away record. Grimsby have lost to Bromley, Halifax and Wrexham in recent weeks. Are they one of the top 8 trams in the division? For me it's a No. I think Notts will win this. 1-0 is my prediction. A late winner.
-
A bad day all round so far. All the sides above us are winning. I'd gladly settle for a point right now.
-
2 words. Michael Cheek. 15 goals so far this season. We have to keep him quiet. A draw wouldn't be a bad result in the long run. Bromley are a decent side.
-
Not a great first half. Stuck in 3rd gear for most of the game, went into 2nd gear for a bit and Wealdstone struggled. Notts need a bit more urgency in the second half.
-
It's a game Notts should be winning. We have to break the habit of allowing the opposition to score first. It will bite us in the butt eventually.
-
Barnet haven't won in their last 4 games but one of those was a 0-0 draw at Boreham Wood which was a fantastic result. They didn't play well in their last 2 games. They scrapped a home draw with Altrincham and then were crushed 4-1 by Chesterfield, it was 0-0 at HT but Chesterfield went up 4-0 before Barnet replied. Notts have a fantastic home record. It will be an emotional night. We pay tribute to a great man and the best way to honour his memory is with a win and I think Notts will do just that. 3-0 to Notts I reckon and more than a few tears shed in memory of Uncle Colin. I think I have something in my eye......
-
I'm not sure what IB said at half time but it worked. We cannot afford to drop points in games like these. We didn't so it's job done.
-
Looking at the weather forecast, it gets drier as the day goes on. The pitch will be heavy regardless. It might be a bit of a leveller but Notts should have enough to win this. KL are a poor side.
-
You couldn't play football on that excuse for a pitch. Ref was right to call it off.
-
This season's version of Dover is possibly the worst team to ever play in the NL. They have played 22 games and have yet to win a game. They are sat on -8 points, 46 points behind Notts and have played 2 games more than Notts. They are going down, the only question is whether they will actually get to plus points or even win a game. There are no excuses for not beating Dover. 3 points is the absolute minimum.
-
That was fun! Didn't start well but took full advantage after they went down to 10. Keeps the pressure on Chesterfield and puts those nouveau rich Wellington wearers from Wales in their place ????
-
Notts have COVID cases. Game should be postponed. Others have taken advantage, it would be extremely naive if Notts didn't as well.
-
Kings Lynn are a poor side. 2nd last is about as good as it will get for them. Anything other than a win would be very disappointing.
-
Notts got there in the end. Southend are a poor side. They will be relegated again if they don't improve. That Chesterfield game in 2 weeks is massive. We can't lose it.
-
Southend are not in a good place on or off the pitch. They are under a transfer embargo because they owe money to the tax man. They drew 1-1 at home to Maidenhead last night. They would have been expected to win that. They are in the relegation zone on goal difference at the moment. Notts are strong at home. 20 points from 27. Southend are not good away from home. 7 points from 27 points is pretty poor. It's hard to see anything but a Notts win. 2-0 to Notts I reckon.
-
Notts got the job done. That's 20 points from 27 at home. That's pretty impressive. Slocombe could be faulted for their goal but more than made up for it with a few vital saves. Onwards and upwards!
-
Dagenham have lost their last 2 games. They lost to Yeovil and Eastleigh and didn't score a goal in either game. They lost both 1-0. They would have expected to win both of those games. A trip to Meadow Lane isn't exactly the game you'd want after losing your last 2. Nott's home form is quite good. 17 points from 24 so far. Dagenham have picked up 12 from 24 on their travels. It will be a tough game for Notts but I think we will win this one. We are a different team at ML and will be fully tuned in as Dagenham are a side not to be underestimated.
-
You just knew Notts wouldn't lose this one. When Notts 100% apply themselves, they are a match for any side. They just don't do it for every side. That needs to be addressed or we won't be promoted.
-
There are 3 teams that you wouldn't want to face coming off a poor performance in your previous game and as luck would have, Notts are playing one of those sides. Boreham Wood are flying. They score goals. They don't leave in many. The most important thing is that they are consistent. They have lost 2 games all season. It's close between them and Chesterfield, but I think Boreham Wood are the best side in the division. If Notts play like they did against Eastleigh, they will be beaten, but we know they won't because they will take Boreham Wood seriously. They will be 100% focused. That's the difference between Boreham Wood and Notts, Boreham Wood take every opponent seriously, whether it's Dover or Chesterfield. Notts are not doing that and that's why we are 6th and Boreham Wood are 2nd. As the approach will be 100% better than last Saturday, I think it will end in a 1-1 draw.
-
Eastleigh seem to keep their best performances for when they play us! Lost ground on top spot as well.
-
It's hard to figure out where Eastleigh are at this point in the season. They finished 9th last season, they are in 15th place at the moment, 8 points off the last playoff place. They played Chesterfield away recently and made it very difficult for them in a 1-0 loss. I think they will make things difficult for Notts but if Notts play as well as they have been recently, I think Notts will leave with 3 points. A hard fought 1-0 win for me.
-
Rochdale came to play. It was a proper game of football. Notts were unlucky. It could have gone either way.
-
I think Notts are playing the better football right now. Based on form, I think Notts will go through. It would be nice to have Plymouth or Wednesday at the Lane. Plus it will be on telly.
-
We must get out of this league before we become part of the furniture ????
