    They did, but when we turned it on they struggled to match us. It's a shame we shut off at the very end, as I think we could've won otherwise.

    Some of their fans still hold a resentment towards Notts. Rochdale would never have won it, Steve Cotterill surprised us all by improving the form and pushing to the top place. I am pleased we managed to bring them back to Meadow Lane, I hope we can knock them out on our soil.

    I can see this being used by many fans Chris, looks ace. Well done!
  4. CliftonMagpie
    Finished to perfection! These wallpapers look ace Chris!!

    I dislike Rochdale ever since the season we won the league, their fans whinging about us cheating to win the league. I would love it if we gave a chance to some of the fringe players and, used the in form squad members then smashed them.

    If Notts manages to kick the KOP end way in the second half, I think the fans will get behind them and it will help. Home soil should give us the advantage, but Notts aren't in any sort of form right now. I would like to see a good performance, or win ugly.

    I missed Roberts off.

    Patterson Brindley Brennan Cameron Chicksen Vincent Nemane O'Brien Rodrigues Roberts Mitchell I think we should be fine to allow Wootton to sit this one out, leave him on the bench if we must but priority needs to be on the league fixtures. If Taylor is fit, start him ahead of Chicksen but from what I have read it seems unlikely that he will be able to make the start. Palmer is another player who I would like to see reserved for the league, as we don't want to risk anything happening to him as he's best midfielder at Notts right now.

    Lacey, Cameron, Rawlinson and Slocombe are all crucial players, Notts needs them and I will be pleased to see the club go back to full strength. It's good that Burchnall acted fast to bring in the loans, I think these need extending if possible. Just to have that cover if needed, it also allows the occasional rotation.

    Seeing out games is something I think the squad will get better at, what with players returning. Provided we keep a strong defence, I think the worries should be over. I am glad Notts managed to get the 2-0 win. By all means it could've been more goals for Notts, but the job was done which is all that matters.
  11. CliftonMagpie
    Its as if the players get to a certain minute and think the job is done, so they just switch off defensively. Its poor but it shows that we need players comfortable in the centre back positions, not left or right backs. 2-0, to 3-2 it shouldn't happen as easy as it did. Understandable the out cry of disappointment, but those calling for Ian Burchnall's head need to ask different questions. Once the players step onto the grass, it's down to them to do the basics. All his decisions made sense such as taking Ruben off. Why leave him on only to risk a red card?
  12. CliftonMagpie
    He should sell a few shirts with his name on the back, superb signing!
  13. CliftonMagpie
    Speaks well, says he's bought into the project. Take us back to the Football League Ian Burchnall.
  14. CliftonMagpie
    All promising stuff so far, I think IB needs to slowly reintroduce Roberts but otherwise lets just get fit before the start of the new campaign.
  15. CliftonMagpie
    Comments like this is just asking for fans to pester the club into announcing the next signing!
  16. CliftonMagpie
    Good signing, I can't wait to see him play!
  17. CliftonMagpie
    Good model professional, Jim. Pleased he's signed his life away for two more years as a pie!
  18. CliftonMagpie
    Very good signing for this level and the future, he looked a decent player for Torquay United. Let's hope he settles in well wearing the famous black and white stripes!
  19. CliftonMagpie
    Notts can run at times well when someone decides to take players on, I wished it would happen more often because even if the player doesn't score like Sam did, it should open up play or intimidate the opposition. Being clever with the ball like this makes games from eventless to somewhat rememberable.
  20. CliftonMagpie
    Mate it's a good read to see that you are feeling happier within yourself.
  21. CliftonMagpie
    Disappointing but no real surprise, I still think Notts could have won them had the game not be postponed. More time for training now!
  22. CliftonMagpie
    I am not sure what to expect, or what team will take to the field. I'm expecting one or two changes due to fitness, it would be nice if Cal Roberts could start. I think we miss him a lot when he doesn't play. If Kyle Wootton misses the game, it would be disappointing. Wes Thomas or Elisha Sam to partner him is fine by me. Not sure about the young striker from Mansfield.
  23. CliftonMagpie
    Slocombe Brindley Lacey Rawlinson McCrory Roberts Doyle Enzio Rodrigues Wootton Sam This would be the line up I would like to see, I think Thomas has been brilliant but I would like to see Sam start. Ardley has mentioned he needs to get himself up to fitness, but sitting out games won't do that. I think with the quality the squad has to create chances, he would start to fit in if he started a few games.
  24. CliftonMagpie
    Potentially a different tough game at the weekend, It will be interesting to see if Ardley rests anyone. Barnet are a good side, they're on the same amount of points as us and have won and lost their opening games. I can see this one ending up as a draw if I am honest, 2-2 would be my prediction.
  25. CliftonMagpie
    Some form of creativity from the centre needs to be injected, if Notts lose tomorrow I won't complain, but if I was Neal Ardley I would drag the whole squad into training however best this may be done and have them work hard towards Saturday. I feel quietly confident that the points can be picked up, its for us to prove ourselves. I would like to see Sam start, some might complain if he starts but we have to mix things off. Let's face it, if he scored the winner, nobody would say anything.
