The Poll has now closed. Thanks to all who voted.I'm pleased to announce that Alassana Jatta has been voted the Pride of Nottingham's Man of the Match v Swindon.

Fleetwood have recently parted company with their Head Coach, Pete Wild & appointed First Team Coach Matt Lawlor as their Interim Head Coach till the end of the season. His team got their first win in five matches when the won at Harrogate on Tuesday. Fleetwood currently stand in 13th place, eleven points adrift of Notts. As for Notts they will be looking for their fourth win in a row after their very impressive win against a very good Swindon Town side on Tuesday evening. Notts have an injury worry, with Club Skipper Matt Palmer feeling a possible hamstring issue & he didn't play against Swindon. I expect that Notts will probably keep the same starting eleven that faced Swindon, with no changes on the bench if everyone is fit. Martin Paterson tends to keep to the same side if they have played well together in their last match. No games are easy in League 2. Fleetwood will pose problems for Notts with their hard working mentality characterised, by intense running, high pressing style, along with defensive resilience & their ability to graft out results. Tactics such as those have posed problems for Notts in the past, but under Martin Paterson, Notts have found much more resilience of their own & the ability to counter those tactics by being more direct & physical with opponents when the need arises. Key players for Notts will be Goalkeeper, Belshaw, Defender Bedeau, Midfielders Iorpenda, Norburn & Grant, Jones on the left & not forgetting Jatta & Dennis. All have been influential during the last few matches. Notts need as ever to be strong at the back & midfield, & take their chances upfront when the opportunity arises. I think that Notts can add to their successive wins tally on Saturday if they continue with the excellent form they have shown of late. Every game is going to feel like a Cup Final till the end of the season.

Just a further to your flat roof problem @Fan of Big Tone when we had our problem with our flat roof leaking they wouldn't touch it because it was quite old. I believe it's over 10 years. That another reason why we opted for a tiled sloping roof. Can't you get an electrician to disconnect and secure your light?

Sorry to read about the problem with your flat roof @Fan of Big Tone We had a leaking flat roof at the front of our property, which is over our front porch several years ago The builder advised we replace it with a tiled roof which looks quite attractive now. Flat roofs have a shorter life, so we thought a tiled roof over that section would be more cost effective. Regarding our car I've just looked at it as an investment to avoid having to buy a new car for a few years. Since retiring my car milage has reduced substantially to what it used to be.

This is a very strange decision when Fleetwood are still in mid table & only 9 points from a playoff place. It's always a strange time for someone to take over with the transfer window shut by the time someone is appointed. The owners could be looking for a new boss to give the side a bounce, but it could easily go the other way. In my opinion it will be tough for Interim Head Coach Matt Lawlor, (who was first team coach under Pete Wild), although his team beat bottom of the table Harrogate on Saturday.

I do think that loans deals can work in a positive way when it is used to see if the player can do a job for the club, especially when they have come from abroad, & the club has taken a bit of a gamble with the signing. Notts gambled on Traoré by signing him on a full contract, they did the same with Morias & Jarvis. So signing Tangen on loan with a view to offer a full time contract in the summer if he delivers, is a good move.

The fact that Paterson embraced all his outfield players as well as those on the bench after the match just demonstrates the type of gaffer he is. But it also demonstrated the he was absolutely over the moon with the performance. A great performance in such an important match will be noticed and talked about amongst all other 23 clubs in League 2. The win will certainly send a message to all those 23 Clubs that Notts have become a force to be reckoned with. Notts are not the soft touch that they used to be.

It was a very good team performance. Pity that Notts couldn't have taken some of those chances that they created in the first & second halves apart from the two goals they scored. I think that the team performance was the best of the season so far. The first goal has now been credited to Jatta, so along with his goal, & due to his exceptional performance, including that exquisite flick that let in Dennis for the winning goal, I award him with my vote for Man of the Match..

Car sorted & MOT now passed for another year @Michael D Pie. Decided to get all the advisories done to so I'm pleased that the Car has passed for another year. Collected it this afternoon.
