I'm very encouraged by the Notts performance especially at the back. Such a massive look to the side as well as a massive result & a clean sheet. I must say that Bass looks very good and I thought he commanded his area very well. And that back line, what a difference they made and will continue to make during the season. And with a bit of more luck, Notts could have even won the game in those last fifteen minutes. Last word regarding Stuart Maynard, his team selection was good and his substitutions nearly made a difference. All in all I'm very pleased with the performance & long may it continue.

Notts had a positive result at Tranmere & it would be great if Notts can do the same against Shrewsbury. It's a Cup match so I'm sure that Stuart may make a few changes to the starting 11 to give the squad players more playing time. I would prefer that Notts field their most strongest side initially because it is important that Stuart's first 11 continue to gel as a team. If the players are fit I would continue with the same 11 that started against Tranmere. I know that people always talk about the possibility of a player getting an injury, but that applies to any game or even on the training pitch A clean sheet against Shrewsbury would really boost the confidence around the squad, & Notts are due to have a good result against higher opposition. Let's try to get a good cup run going that can bring in some extra revenue for the Club. If we don't concede any goals I would be very happy. A 1:0 win would be great.

Thanks for the interesting lesson. I remember being told that nursery rhyme when I was a boy. I'm sure girls used to say that nursery rhyme when they were skipping in a long rope. I forgot all about it before you brought it up here. We have had a few magpies for years right where I live. Before we had our Cyprus tree cut down, wood pigeons used to Nest regularly in it and the magpies killed their young a few times sadly Magpies are very bold. They have come quite close to us when we've sat outside in the garden.They are a very attractive bird but they can be vicious.

@Wheelbarrow repair man You make some good points here and your ideas appear very sound. I would like to see a fund set up where Premier League Clubs contribute say .05% of their turnover to this fund to assist clubs who are struggling financially through no fault or their own. Something has to be done to address the growing chasm between the haves and have nots

Great support today.

Can't log into the App and the App isn't fully working yet. Looks like there will be some sort of a ticker but it's not ready yet.

I'm happy with this result. A clean sheet and chances to win it late on. Looking forward to our next match.

Substitutions for Notts.

Back to it. No changes.

Goalless at half time. Happy with that. Tranmere 0 Notts 0

@Wheelbarrow repair man Agree, Macca put the goals away but he had such a great supply route with Crowley, Jones, McGoldrick, & Nemane plus the rest of the Notts team.

@Wheelbarrow repair man I'm aware that most of the electric milk floats have been phased out but there are still milkmen delivering milk door to door albeit in much smaller numbers. They are franchised milkmen who franchise from Milk & More in this area. I used to deliver milk to their warehouse in Bulwell. They also deliver Bread & PET bottles of milk & other goods too.

Stuart Maynard picks his first side for the first game of the season. So many injuries to start the season. Concerning that Palmer has picked up an injury again. Looks like Chicksen on the left and Jones on the right. I'm a little worried about getting exposed on the flanks.
