A 5th Straight Australian Open title for Alfie Hewett and Gordon Reid in the Tennis Wheelchair Doubles, and 19th Grand Slam overall.

Andy Lapthorne and David Wagner are Quad Doubles Australian Open Champions.

A dry start & some Sunshine for many of us Friday morning.

Neil Skupski & Desire Krawczyk finish runners up in Australian Open Mixed Doubles final.

Stuart was explaining in his pre Barrow press conference that the players had been working on small changes to the shape and the way they play to reduce pressure on the defence when the opposition gain possession. So I expect small tweaks on Saturday.

Stuart Maynard demonstrated to all in his press conference that the Reedtz brothers have made an excellent choice in appointing him Head Coach. All of the members of this community are in one voice by saying such positive things about what they've seen from Stuart so far & what he has been saying. He has a calm confidence about him, as well as knowing exactly what he needs to do to make improvements to the team. That came over clearly in the interview. I believe that there will be small changes to our style and shape to improve our defence, and we will see more caution going forward. We may not see the throwing of caution to the wind, or the ping pong style that we saw under Luke. More emphasis will be in not conceding so easily, however, I do believe that we will remain potent up front, and a threat to anyone we play, but we may not score as many goals. So long as we win 1:0 or 2:1, I'm sure Stuart will take that. Looking forward to Saturday with relish.

Aidan McGivern from the MET office gives the weekend Weather forecast.

Mild this evening, cloudy and becoming increasingly windy

I agree. The team only needs to have small tweaks, and Stuart is already working on it in training, according to what he said in his pre Barrow presser.

Latest Weather forecast Outbreaks of rain and drizzle for most of with brighter interludes at times

Alfie Hewett reaches his 17th Grand Slam Singles Final.

Latest Weather from the BBC for Thursday. Mostly cloudy with rain at times, becoming brighter later, Mild for this time of year.

Totally agree.???? Agree @thommo I think he's got a great future, whether Notts will be able to keep hold of him is another matter once he establishes himself in the team.

My sentiments entirely. Well said????. It's going to be an exciting time witnessing how Stuart improves the team defensively.

Met office forecast for Thursday morning.

Latest from the MET Office. It's a fine evening for some with winds easing down, but a little chilly tonight.

A good day for our tennis juniors in Australia.

So this is going to be the big game when Stuart takes charge of Notts for the first time. We have seen on other threads the footballing philosophy of Steve in action for Wealdsone and I'm sure he's going to put some of his thinking in place for the Barrow game. I expect that he will go for a back 3 supported by two wingbacks & a defensive midfielder in front of the back 3. The wingbacks will have to ensure they track back when we lose possession. Stuart will be more cautious than Luke when it comes to attacking and possibly won't commit players forward in numbers, this may reduce our attacking potency a little, however the big benefit will be defensively. Better to win 2:1 than 4:3 I would be happy with a draw, but hope for a 2:1 win which would be absolutely huge for us. Looking forward to this Saturday. It won't be long coming.
