Game 18 - The Spireites (A)
Team: Chesterfield

What line-up should Neal Ardley opt for? What will be the key areas for the Magpies to get a victory? What do you think the final score will be?

Chesterfield were one of the bookies' promotion favourites, but purely based on the name. They've had a torrid start to the season but seem to have picked up recently.
The club has reported that we've sold the away end out, which should equate to 2,100 travelling fans. That's brilliant support! Hope you all enjoy the short journey and report back here with your experiences 
It feels like only a minute ago that I posted the scores for the last round (mainly because it is), and now the next round is upon us. These matches kick off on Tuesday at 7.45pm, so I'll need your predictions in by then.
Just a quick reminder - you get ONE joker each (if you post two I can't accept them), and if you copy and paste the fixtures, make sure you copy all eight of them. Good luck!
Preston v Leeds
Millwall v Cardiff City
Portsmouth v Lincoln City
Shrewsbury v Gillingham
Rochdale v MK

I think most people would look to give the fringe players a game but I liked what the manager said about players having to earn the right to be in the team.
lets hope we come out of it injury free.

I wouldn't make wholesale changes, but I might rest two or three players and give those who are "knocking at the door" a go. If Wootton can't play it might be an opportunity to get Tyson match fit again.
I don't subscribe to the idea that a cup run doesn't matter. We've taken part in more FA Cups than any other team. We haven't been missing from the first round of the cup since the Victorian era, and frankly I'm not ready for another first. We need to get through this round and show some League clubs that we're alive, kicking and will be back very soon. And winning football matches is fun, too 
Here's hoping to a good crowd, a good following from Derbyshire and of course a win for Notts!
Result was good. I wasnt able to make the game.

Slocombe 6 - Reassured us fans when he came and collected crosses and just making sure things didn't untangle in defence
Kelly-Evans 5 - Many times in the first half his passes to Boldewijn were poor. Looked a little off the pace as he's just come back from injury
Rawlinson 7 - Another solid performance. Becoming better with the ball at his feet
Turner 6 - Relatively ok but sometimes would peel off his man. Thankfully, Rawlinson won everything
McCrory 5 - Frustrating. Can tell he's only just come back from injury but everytime he got the ball in an advanced position, he went back
Shields 8 - Superb. Constantly got down the wing. The Belper player who was marking him was shattered just after the hour mark because Sean had done him everytime. Bags of energy and pace. Getting better
Doyle 6 - Lost his man for the goal but improved afterwards and took control and made tackles when needed
Booty 7 - Class act. Defence splitting ball to Wootton for the goal. Some good interplay with other teammates. Will be a key player this season
Boldewijn 7 - Scored a brilliant goal which he is capable of. Helped us get on the front foot. Made life difficult constantly for Belper
Wootton 7 - A good goal. Hit the bar. A decent afternoon
Dennis 6 - Should have had two goals. Intelligent runs but surprisingly for Denno, lacking the finish
Subs
Thomas 5 - Should have scored a 3rd for Notts
Tyson 5 - Good to see him back from injury but then cleared the ball for Belper and then karate kicked one of their players

Hi,
I'm coming up to Meadow Lane this weekend (Friday 13th-Saturday 14th) to film a mini-documentary about the club for the YouTube channel Football Daily.
We're really keen to speak to some dedicated fans about their relationship with the club and how they are adapting to life in the National League.
If you'd be interested in having a chat, or you know anyone who would be, please let me know! Either reply on here or contact me on my mobile: 07496990131
Thanks,
Michael

Subs

Things are looking quite promising, the team performs on the same wavelength and I honestly feel that they have finally clicked.
Notts looked very lively and up for it at the beginning, for me - all this talk of Tarquay being difficult to beat and the home record being lost due to it might have been something which
I want to say Tarquay played well as a team.
I disagree with comments about them being 'poor' or 'substandard', I felt they did well, but fell to a brilliant strike by Richard Brindley who has been a quiet underrated performer in my eyes. His opening strike was just lovely!
Notts also played as a team, however, they performed at a much higher standard.
It was very entertaining, with a lot of quality moments. It just feels like we have a team which will fight, work hard and play together as a unit.

you can see the team are heading the right direction, i think ardley has done well with all the nonsense from those who did not learn from the dismissal of nolan.
it was great to see the players fired up, they looked like they wanted to score as early as possible.
i think dennis should be starting on rotation, he looks fired up but we need to keep him like this. he will get goals and change the outcome, between him, thomas and tyson i think we have the squad to really dig deep.
It was a good game no doubt about that.
Torquay wasn't bad, Notts played good football and we are looking more like league contenders now. If the results keep coming at home, with improvements being made away from it, this season could really start.
Great result, the cleansheets right now are massive.
From the Daily Mail / The Athletic:
Barcelona centre-back Gerard Pique sensationally swooped to buy Notts County in the summer but failed with a last-minute bid.
Pique, in association with his Kosmos Global Holding group, was in talks with former owner Alan Hardy about buying the club in July and was said to be attracted by County's prestige and value, according to The Athletic.
The 32-year-old was keen to turn the youth system into a hotbed of homegrown talent, but Danish brothers Alexander and Christoffer Reedtz bought the club instead on July 26, such was the necessity of a quick deal with a High Court date over an unpaid tax bill looming.

Slocombe 8 - Distribution good and made two excellent saves
Brindley 6 - Bit asleep in the first half. Got slightly better in the 2nd
Rawlinson 6 - Did well coping with Inih Effiong. May have been at fault for the 2nd goal
Turner 6 - As with Connell, dealt well with Effiong and passes the ball well. Sometimes caught napping
Bakayogo 7 - Got well down the left. Defended strongly
Osborne 6 - Did ok first half. Got better as the half went on. Substituted second
Rose 6 - Penalty tucked away nicely. Works hard but too many times he goes back with the ball
Booty 7 - Always looks for that forward pass. Was our best hope of unlocking the Dover defence. Comfortable in possession
Boldewijn 7 - Ran forward with the ball and bought the play into Dover's half. A constant threat.
Thomas 5 - He gets into good positions but should have had two goals. His miss in the second half is embarrassing. If he could finish he'd be in League One
Wootton 5 - Worked hard and bought the ball down well in the first half. Second half largely ineffective
Subs
Shields 6 - Bag of energy. Constantly trying to make an impact on the game. Played well
Dennis 7 - Wasn't a great performance when he came on, then the 88th minute arrived. Scenes

I was having a think last night, we have used a lot of players over the last 5 years, we've had players we've loved and forgot about (Stanley Aborah who?), players we loved and now dislike, (Liam Noble) and many, many players who have come and gone in between. We have had good loan players like Jorge Grant, Mackail-Smith to name a few. So my question to you fellow PON users is, who is your favourite player from the last 5 years? And to make things interesting, 1 permanent and 1 loan signing.
So scratch your brains, have a think and let me know!

I will be watching from the Pavis, I am a little nervous.
I would take another draw TBH.
Get in! We seem to be building some momentum now. It's great to see us flirting with the top end of the table - to be quite honest I was expecting a relegation scrap.
I'm really chuffed for Dennis scoring again too. While he's a great option to bring off the bench and change a match, he's our top scorer, and your top scorer really ought to be on the pitch.
Great win! Fans who want Notts to okay pretty football for 90 minutes, aren't likely to want the club to remain in this league for long either. Momentum is building, the team seems confident too.
Game 15 - The Whites (A)

We are now at the point where Notts historically disappoint. Another win on Saturday would really put us into the mix. Dover haven’t performed too well at home thus far so if the boys could pull this one off it could be the real beginning of our season.
Dover are a decent side. They haven't the best home record, but I have a feeling that will change tomorrow. 2-1 to the home team. Inih Effiong with both goals for the home side.
Decent result considering, I am pleased that we battled for the point.
To some degree, it sounds as if Notts was lucky because Dover did well from what Charlie Slater and Mark Stallard said.

does anyone else think that these two could form a better partnership in midfield than that of michael doyle and jim o'brien?
they seem like two players imo that notts could gamble on. we know that crawford can score goals at this level and both appeared to perform for the enjoyment wanting to express themselves. i am surprised that ardley has not given crawford a start just to see what he can do. i dont think you can overlook every option when you want to succeed so maybe ardley will learn this?
