    Win and we are in, the playoffs that is. I think we will win and in some style. 3-0 to Notts.
  2. Dripsey3
    You'd expect Notts to win and they did. It was a decent performance. Ruben has been the driving force over the last few games.

    Barnet hit rock bottom in early April when they lost 5-1 at Wealdstone. They responded by going on a 4 match unbeaten run. The mini revival was ended by Sutton but it was only 1-0. They lost to Dagenham but then bounced back with a win away to Weymouth. I expect Barnet to sit back and try to hit Notts on the break. They can't go toe to toe with Notts because they don't have the quality. If Notts apply themselves properly, it will be an away win. I'm going for 3-1 to Notts.

    If the players adopt the same attitude as they did against Altrincham, this could get ugly. I expect they won't because Sutton are a step up and they won't under estimate them. We won at their place back in October. Easily one of the best results we had this season. Notts are not in a good place right now. Either we'll get a big boost with a win or the cloud of gloom will grow after another demoralizing defeat. Or we could draw and be happy enough. I'll go for a draw.

    Is it just me or does it feel like the players have given up? There's no drive. No urgency. No ambition. It would be a miracle if we made the playoffs now. IB is trying but it's not working. There's little point in getting rid of him now. Maybe he will grow into the role.
  6. Dripsey3
    Wow. We failed to beat a team who have been absolutely rubbish in their last 2 games. What else is there to say!
  7. Dripsey3
    1-0 down to Altrincham. Hard to believe but there it is. We'll have another manager by Monday if it stays like this!
  8. Dripsey3
    Altrincham have lost 4 games in a row. They were hammered 4-0 by Sutton at home 2 games ago. They lost 3-2 to Barnet at home in their last game. There isn't a better time to be playing them. Notts should be winning games like this. No excuses. 3-0 to Notts I reckon.
  9. Dripsey3
    No but I'd think about it for a few seconds! The players are making the same mistakes over and over again. IB has worked hard on cutting out those mistakes but it's up to the players and they are not doing what they should be doing.

    Torquay are on a roll. 5 wins in a row. 4 clean sheets. They are just point off the top of the table and have 3 games in hand on Hartlepool. They beat Sutton who are in 2nd 1-0 away recently. They came to ML in January and left with a point. Notts are not in good form . We are struggling all over the pitch. I think Torquay will be on a number of betting accumulators this weekend. Notts have the team to end Torquay's good run. The manager seems to have a gameplan in mind but the players aren't getting it as of yet as far as I can see. If IB plays the same formation again, I think Torquay will win. Hopefully Notts have been practicing their defending of set pieces! I hate to say it but 3-1 to Torquay for me.

    Notts are no longer in the playoffs. Shocking. Looks like another season in this league at the very least. I hope we don't do a Kidderminster....
  12. Dripsey3
    Very impressed with Hartlepool. Did the simple things well. Took their chances. A very well managed side. Everything Notts weren't today.
  13. Dripsey3
    Notts need to reel off a string of wins to push for a top 3 finish. Woking don't score many goals but they are hard to break down. Torquay and Hartlepool both beat them 1-0 recently and Woking made them work hard for the win. I expect a tough game. Notts need to show the same fighting spirit as they showed against Wrexham and if they do, they'll win. 2-0 to Notts. Knight with both.
  14. Dripsey3
    Roberts is so important. He showed his quality when he came on. Notts are a different team when he plays. Knight will contribute as well. We need to build on this now. We need a run of wins.
  15. Dripsey3
    Wrexham started well but have slowed down. Notts haven't been brilliant, but they have shown plenty of fight. Cal Roberts is back and Knight has made his debut. 2 positives. Notts just scored. Ellis. This would be a fantastic victory.
  16. Dripsey3
    I fear the worst and I take no pleasure in saying that. The alarm bells are not just ringing, they are flashing red. 3-0 to Wrexham is my prediction. They are flying at the moment. Their confidence is sky high. Their manager is better than ours at this level at this moment in time.
  17. Dripsey3
    Right we need a good excuse. We are concentrating on the league? We didn't want to go to Wembley for fear of spreading COVID accidentally? We had loads of injuries? I'm really struggling......
  18. Dripsey3
    We have just witnessed the worst result in the club's history. The absolute worst. I need a drink and I don't drink!
  19. Dripsey3
    That's the frustrating thing. When this team plays, it's almost unbeatable. Another 10 minutes and Notts would have won IMO. Unleash them from the start and we'll be sitting pretty before too long!
  20. Dripsey3
    On the face of it, a draw is a good result in the circumstances but it's papering over the cracks. Performances have to improve. The playoff race is tightening.
  21. Dripsey3
    2-0 now. Nowhere near good enough given the squad at the manager's disposal. Nevermind 1st place, if this continues, there won't even be a playoff place.
  22. Dripsey3
    The performance against Wealdstone was slightly better than what went before so that's positive. BW beat us 1-0 at home in December. They are a decent side and sit 10th in the table. They have drawn 11 games and 4 of their last 5 results have been draws. Their other result was a 1-0 loss at Wealdstone. They haven't scored or conceded in their last 2 games. I think it will be a close game but I think Notts will sneak a 1-0 win.
  23. Dripsey3
    I think it is but not under NA. He's too nice. You need a Martin Allen type, not Martin Allen himself to get the best out of these players.
  24. Dripsey3
    It's deja vu up to now. NA needs a plan B, C and D.
  25. Dripsey3
    Halifax are on a 3 game unbeaten run. They beat Torquay away and drew with Hartlepool at home. That shows how dangerous they are. They are strong in midfield and that is a worry given what King's Lynn midfield did to Notts in the first half. Hopefully lessons were learned from that. They are 4 points behind Notts and Notts have 2 games in hand. While it's quite a must win game for them, they won't want that gap to widen. I don't see Notts winning this game but I do think this will be the end of a bad spell and we will start winning once the new signings bed in. Brighter days ahead surely......
