Unfortunately Notts are out of the EFL Cup why? With Burton winning 5-2 against Northampton, Notts County are officially out of the EFL Trophy on goal difference. Even though Notts beat Burton at Burton.

The winning moment.

A typical Notts performance tonight. Absolutely rock solid at the back once again. I'll take these 1:0 wins all season if we can keep getting clean sheets. Pleased for Ceds tonight, getting the only goal and well taken too Also pleased fo Sam Slocombe who's taken some stick over the last few months but as achieved a clean sheet tonight. And a big shout out for the youngsters who played their part in a good win tonight.

A win for Notts. On the balance of play, they were the second best team. Leicester had all the individual quality but could not find a way through and that's credit to Notts." - Stallard

Update. Yellow card to Rob McDonald. Notts 1 Leicester 0. 72 mins.

Substitutions for Notts.

Update. Leicester are pressing and have had a few corners early in the second half. Notts 1 Leicester 0: 54 mins.

Back to it.

Update. Leicester are having the better of it since the Notts goal. Notts 1 Leicester 0. 44 mins. Ahead at the break "Leicester have dominated possession, they have shown the quality but they have not found a way to breach this Notts County defence." - Stallard

GOOOOOAAAAAL. SCOTT What a way to announce your return, fantastic goal. Maybe he could have shot earlier, but moves it 5 yards to his right and there was nothing the keeper could do." - Stallard

After 24 mins the match is fairly even with possession evenly distributed on both sides. Both sides have had several shots on goal but we await a breakthrough. Notts 0 Leicester 0: 24 mins.

Update Notts 0 Leicester 0: 22 mins.

Underway at the lane.

Almost ready.

Tonight's team. Not far off with my team selection

Update.

Bit of a publicity stunt if you ask me. Wouldn't it compromise health and safety on the football field?

Do PON members like it when match times are changed for the TV Cameras?

Your Tuesday Evening Weather

Good evening. It's been an overcast day here & it was a little cold this morning. Bought a new Xmas tree this morning. We do have a big tree we've had for over ten years that's seven foot tall & it takes lots of baubles & lights to fill it. We are both not in the best of health, so we thought it better to get a smaller tree, that also has lights on it, & we won't need to use all the baubles this year. We always dress the tree around thanksgiving. That's a special day in the US at the end of November, so our Xmas tree is usually up around 6 weeks or so. Checked it out when I got home and it looks good & the lights work. During early afternoon, went in the garden and removed all the dead & dying flowers & trimmed down our apple trees somewhat. So all in all two good jobs completed today.

I think that the first experience of a great comeback for me was when Everton played Sheffield Wednesday at the old Wembley in 1966. Sheffield Wednesday took a 2:0 lead and hour into the game, but Everton came back and won 3:2 in normal time.

I think that Notts need to play their squad players tonight, & some Academy players. My team would be Slocombe. Ness, McDonald, Cundy Martin, Hinchy, Abbott Tsaroulla Reynolds, Cisse, Brown. Substitutes, Bass, Sanderson, Crowley, Robertson, McGoldrick, Muir, Bedeau More experience on the bench if needed. Didzy may need a few minutes as well as Robertson and Crowley.

Matchday.
