It will soon be time to hit the sack. Dissapointing that Notts lost but the players available to Stuart did their best for the team. Looking at the other results, only three teams of the top ten won tonight, Walsall, MKDons & Grimsby. Teams around Notts are dropping points too, yet on X you'd think Notts losing is an absolute disaster. Six of our best players are missing. They could easily be all in the starting eleven come January. No one can tell the future, but there are still 28 games & 84 points to play for. The likes of Jones, Crowley, Edwards, Grant, Abbott, & Platt coming back is a mouthwatering prospect. X land shouldn't be writing off the Magpies just yet.

Your Wednesday Morning Weather

There were only three winners amongst the top ten teams in league 2 tonight.Walsall, Mk Dons & Grimsby. All the other teams drew or lost. So teams around Notts are dropping points too. Doncaster meet Fleetwood tomorrow.

I thought three players stood out from my shortlist. David McGoldrick put in another excellent performance. Lucas Ness came in for Platt & also had a good game. Jack Hinchy came in for currently our best player in my opinion, George Abbott, and Jack did a great job for Stuart. He even scored a well taken goal too. In my opinion, Jack had his best game for Notts, and he's my Notts player of the match.

It was a narrow defeat for Notts tonight, but despite the defeat, there were some good performances. My player shortlist for Man of the match is as follows:- McGoldrick, Hinchy, Ness, Bedeau, Palmer, Tsaroulla, Jatta, Cisse.

I think that we have to bear in mind that Notts are missing 6 of their best first team players & missing those players is starting to have it's affect. Notts have done so well to keep up with the league leaders despite the number of injuries. The team that Stuart is fielding are trying their level best, & it was no different tonight. There were some good performances. Jack Hinchy had his best game for Notts, David McGoldrick played very well again, & Lucas Ness played well too. Notts just need to hang in there and hope that results will improve once the six players return. I'm optimistic that the fortunes of the team will turn for the better in the new year.

Notts stein sixth place just two points from the automatics.

We have to take into account that Notts are missing 6 players who would go straight into the first eleven. The effect of the injured players is starting to show & Notts have done so well to get this far and still be in touch with the leaders . The players remaining are doing their best & could easily have salvaged a point at the end. Notts fans need to give the team some slack. The injured players are going to return at some point. Positives. Jack Hinchy had his best game for Notts. McGoldrick was magnificent & Ness played well too Let's get a few more wins & hopefully early in the new year we will have a full squad available again.

Goal to Walsall. Completely against the run of play. We saw Notts nearly score directly from the corner but Walsall have done that. Not a good goal from Notts to concede." - Stallard

@liampie Stay warm & safe. Hope you come back with a positive result tonight. Would be great to read your comments on the game as you are there watching it.

A nice thread started by PON on BlueSky. @prideofnottingham.bsky.social on Bluesky BSKY.APP On this day, in 1949, Tommy Lawton's "Header of the Century" opened the scoring...

Looks like George Abbott is going to win.

Good Morning. Reasonable morning here with some blue sky but it is a little chilly once again. Had a food delivery this morning. Some of the items not available. I do think the supermarkets give priority to those shoppers visiting the store. I'm sure that if I visited the store I would find a "not available" food item on the shelf. I know because I've seen it for myself. Looking forward to the match tonight. It's going to be a toughie, but I hope Notts can get a positive result.
