I wasn't impressed with Wrexham.
They started well and made use of our high press, with an early chance that could've easily turned the game in their favour. Despite all their money spent, they still struggle with finishing, which bemused me slightly.
Mullin actually seemed quite pacey for such a lanky presence.
Notts grew into the game I felt and, I actually predicted the result. I wished in hindsight I said to the lads that Langstaff would score, but I did feel it would be someone else. Mostly due to the belief that Wrexham would make our key players heavily, but again they failed to deceive.
We could've easily scored more with the chances created, whilst their only real opportunity fell early in the first half.
Parkinson's comments about them deserving a draw at the very least is the typical talk a losing manager with high expectations says. In truth, they deserved nothing and all the talk about understanding how we play, it only looked like they did at times and those where very few between.

What a fantastic evening and result, I'm jealous of everyone who was there! And what a superb crowd for a night match too - you could tell clearly on the radio that it was absolutely buzzing, it sounded more like a cup game. Now we need to carry this on at Woking.

Slocombe 8 Back to his best, some great saves, could do nothing about that goal conceded
Brindley 7 Best of the back 3, chances of marauding runs forward limited
Rawlinson 5 Usual to report a sloppy pass that nearly gifts a goal. Defending is good though
Cameron 5 Equally guilty of a sloppy pass that could have cost a goal
Adebayo-Rowling 7.5 Some good forward positions and assists
Chicksen 7.5 Another goal
Castro 6.5 Another stupendous free kick, hitting the bar from 35 yards
Palmer 6 Always available, creative passing muted
Ruben 7.5 Well marked but some good work
Scott 7.5 Ability to see opportunities
Langstaff 9 Jamie Vardy mark II... Reading of the game so advance than others

If the Pies have scored a better free kick than Castro's, I don't remember it. What a strike from that distance. It was like a guided missile.

You’re going to lose games over a course of the season, the thing that’s needed in this league if you’re going to do well is a positive reaction and we got it.
Probable goal of the season from Castro, unbelievable strike. And what more can you say about Macca, he’s going to get 20 goals before Christmas at this rate.
But the third goal shows what this team is all about. We seem a lot more determined and relentless off the ball this season. Not giving the opposition time, winning the ball back quickly and high up in dangerous positions. Defenders hate it and we’ve seen it enough times the past few seasons how a high press caused us problems. Now we’re the ones causing the problems!

Well that was disappointing
-
Well Stal described it as a smash and grab, so it’s definitely frustrating to take. I’ll wait for the highlights but their goalkeeper seemed to be in great form whilst ours just picked the ball out of his net three times!
Hopefully it’s a case of ‘just one of those games’, more often than not if you’re the team creating all the chances you’ll win the game. A set-back but no-one in the top 6 won, so it’s not as disastrous as it seems.

We must have had 80% possession but like Aldershot away last season, we contrived to lose 3-1
Slocombe 4 Too many sloppy passes this season were not punished..Today, we were
Rawlinson 5 Kept it simple in passing
Bajami 6.5 Looks the business
Cameron 6 Battle protected
Palmer 4.5 Off the pace, too many times
JOB 6 Plenty of effort
Ruben 7.5 Heavily marked
Nemane 5 Final ball not good enough
Chicksen 5 Shooting chances poor
Scott 6... effective
Langstaff 6.5 Unlucky with his chances
Subs

Langstaff
