wrexham have done well but they lose their spark but so far they have done everything which we would want of notts. wootton has no support and nobody feeding the ball to him, hes just holding it up. its pretty dull watching.

i think its time for a change to the formation, our manager has spoken about wanting to attack but things so far have still be like they were under ardley. i would be curious to see what would happen if we played alone striker with 3 cms and the wingers supporting the striker. if roberts starts we should have some creativity out wide, then enzio or rodrigues could go on the other side. with doyle playing a deeper role, reeves to support and crewe lad in a free midfield role.

right now i feel we are the masters of our own downfall, losing 1-0 does not worry me but the performance was not good at all. the players need to setup and work for each other, i think we will have a period where we are unflattering but i do hope the new manager starts to understand things.

im not bothered either we can focus on the league and we should all know performances will only improve over time.

boreham wood seem to like to play attacking football but in the highlights i have seen defensively they can be quite poor. if we create enough, i think we can get a good result. i really fancy wootton to grab his first hattrick here.

@Dripsey3 i think notts needs to be more fired up to win, i feel some of the problems are the players when games are called off or suspended. i think those who blame neal ardley out right are being unfair and i question how a different manager could do better? i suppose if someone who gave the squad confidence and fired them up it might help, but the players dont do this themselves enough. the results have been hit and miss, but in form we cant help what happens when other teams are hit with covid.

@DangerousSausage its obvious that notts struggles to keep consistent when games are postponed, i doubt its all that but the fact the midfield needs to be more creative in the centre of the park. i dont think the doom and gloom is fully justified but i understand that performances need to be better. its just one of those patches though. notts are the type of team to have this rough spell and somehow still manage to push on for promotion. im not worried, neal ardley is still the right man for me.

i think the issue is we need to try to recover from the breaks, when we play consecutively notts does quite well. i dont know if training can fill the gap of playing a proper league game but we need to manage this situation better. i think golden might be the only change, is slocombe available for this game?

very good result, when slocombe got sent off i thought it would end in defeat or a draw at the least. ruben did very well to smash his goal in, kyle is starting to crop up where needed but his 2nd was a stunner in its own right. i thought doyle did well in goal, perhaps not as much as some keep banging on but if it annoys dagenham then it worth it. great result.

it should continue but the checks players have need to be done a little better, especially on match days temperatures should be checked on arrival and just before kick off. suspending the league or null and voiding it would be stupid, it puts the whole thing into a pointless area.

i have a feeling it might get called off, its been a strange season with covid and waterlogged pitches. clubs unwilling to reschedule games, expect one. dover being rubbish. i am not sure what to make of this but i do want and hope the game goes ahead. it all relies on the weather tho. knowing our luck it will be called off.

i think the game might be a bit of a struggle for both teams unless a goal early on opens the play, a draw is how i think it will end. i expect a very scrappy game.

jimmy knowles might get some credit finally by those who continually unappreciated him. then again, the same happens with enzio until nights like today and then he cant do anything wrong until he goes quiet for several games. ruben rodrigues is class, hes extremely composed and skilful. 2-0!! wootton with both.

they have pearce now at centre back? would have been good to get him back here as he has experience. think it will be down to how our midfield players and if we can keep focused throughout the game, i cant see it being lively on the goal front.

i agree, i said it at the start of the season and he unfairly gained some criticism for playing out of position but i think hes been brilliant all season.

it comes down to chance creation, i agree that notts are starting to over play their passing and the movement does not leave much opportunity to build confidence for the strikers as what changes do come, they have to rush to pull something off or they end up being pressured. cal roberts returning to in form would help to stretch the play but i totally disagree with those who believe effiong and wootton are the same type of player. the wider players need to draw more space imo.

i dont think a draw is a bad result, a win would have been nice but i think the draw might come down to the players of both teams thinking the season will be suspended or whatever. i am happy for us to take the point, i just hope it means something in the long term.

the game should have ended as a draw, our goal was not offside and we did okay but never really found the motion. hartlepool played like they wanted it more and worked as a team, one of the better sides we have played this season for me.

big test to see if notts can consistently bounce back to winning ways or not. yeovil have been dire all season but that means nothing, i think on paper it should be easier for us and of form but on the day can change things. will be interested to see dke take on the useless former dickinson.

poor result but its not something notts cant respond from. just disappointing we could not manage a draw, at least then we would have continued the unbeaten run. it needs to start again but i think boreham wood deserved the victory.

penalty missed by kyle wootton, he looks tired and unlike himself. the pen was soft, but the woking keeper did well to save it.

enzio being rested? i think hes been in good form, so i hope hes not injured or anything. enough attacking minded players to show that quality we have. rodrigues will be our key player i think. 1-0 win for notts.

my prediction would be 2-0 notts. think wootton is due one, the other will probably be rodders.

tom walker should make his debut which is good that we have cover, enzio will hopefully be able to pick up from where he finished against wealdstone. i hope notts plays attacking football because the daggers struggle against sharp teams. if we play quick and pacey football, we should be able to get another win on the road and climb a bit more.

he seems to have arrived for the right reasons, its an area cover is needed so hope he can contribute to notts winning some games whilst hes here.
