That was a very good Notts performance especially in attack, we looked up for it from the start and we harried Crawley and closed them down really well. All three goals were excellent Stead had a lot of work to do for his but took it brilliantly and Thomas off the bench to score a curling free kick .....fantastic. Every player did their bit but special praise from me for Alessandra, Boldwin and of course captain fantastic Jon Stead. I’ve been feeling rough today and very nearly gave it a miss but I’m so glad I made the effort and the game was so good I forgot how ill I’d been feeling.

It was great to get the first win under our belts, second half much better than the first, Fitzsimmons made an excellent save low down to his left in the second half I was right behind that goal it was excellent and deserved the congratulations he got from his team mates. I think Crawley on Tuesday will be a lot harder.

We’ve kept a clean sheet for 45 minutes.

It'd be great to get that first win, I really hope we can do it and start to move forward, it's all about confidence and a win would certainly go a long way to improve the confidence.

Thanks for doing this article @TheSkipper it’s a great idea to put all the reaction in one place, it saved me trawling round various places looking as I’m away at the moment with limited access to the internet.

I’m away so I wasn’t at the match but I take heart from reading @Natty‘s report, it seems that things may be slowly turning around.

From what I heard from people who actually went to the match the performance never warranted a 5-1 scoreline and the performances are improving albeit not for 90 minutes but that will come hopefully with the increased fitness levels.

Well I didn’t see the match and I only heard the last 10 minutes but the score speaks for itself, where do we go from here Kewell has a massive job on his hands.

I'm not expecting a win but I am hoping for a good performance, I would take that, however if we got a draw that would be a bonus, a win and I would be ecstatic. Daddy Kewell has had a week with them now so hopefully little by little he will be instilling his ideas into them.

It’s a good interview, he talks well and his passion for football shines through, I’m looking forward to seeing his relationship with Kewell and the gang develop (see what I did there?)

Great feature thanks @samwatto2008 and of course @Chris It’s interesting that Rodney says Jonathon Forte is their star player this season, that is one big mistake by Nolan in my opinion, why the hell did he let him go?

Fantastic drawing, well done Caitlyn.

Doh! Why didn’t I think of that? Thanks @super_ram Fine moderator I am, don’t tell @Chris he’ll sack me.

Err, I don't think Kevin Nolan will have much say in it.

Well on the positive side we only conceded 2 and one of those was a penalty.

1-1 penalty oh well, not doing so well second half.

Notts sound as if they are playing a lot better so fingers crossed it’s a turning point, although it’s only the EFL cup so we shouldn’t get carried away yet.

That sounds like Just the sort of signing we need, tons of experience and tall, hopefully he can sort out our defensive problems.

Thanks for the article @samwatto2008 I think Nolan was sacked too soon, I honestly believe he could have turned it round with a couple or three loan signings but now we will never know so we have to move forward and support the new man whoever it is.

Another 3 goals conceded so far and by the sounds of it Lincoln could get more yet.

Tootle injured now Bird on, it’s not looking good.

Losing 2-1 sounds like another mistake by Fitzsimmons.

Duffy off Hawkridge on.

1-1 Kellet COYP Oh dear Duffy injured

Everyone is expecting a thrashing, the Lincoln team and manager will be expecting to beat us easily, wouldn't it be just like to Notts to go and get a win against all odds. Then again...................
