Notts. County game

I thought it was a good game yesterday

They deserved their lead and could have doubled it, as they had a good spell early on....

Numbers 29/11/9/10 were very good and played good football - still do not get how they are where they are and how they just keep losing?????

Shaun had two good chances early in the second half and I was wondering if it was going to be one of those games..... not to be thankfully

I would like to see Jack and Shaun swap wings during the games, just to offer something different and make defenders think.

Tommy Leigh was like a fish out of water and just did not seem to be enjoying the role he was playing - I also think it was not suited to him.

Dan Martin is just such a good player now, 8/10 is now what you get as standard

50 point mark achieved, season 19 beckons

it wasnt a bad game at all.when you weigh it up they should have won easy with the money they have coming in after all its a city.

I enjoyed the match and thought that a draw was a fair result. Where we struggled it was more a lack of experience than a lack of effort as I thought all the lads kept going from the start to the final whistle.

Agree about Nolan and Whalley, Val.
The County defenders did a really good job preventing Nolan getting onto his left foot throughout the game and swapping wings might have been an option to try.
But it was a good game and Stanley more than deserved their point.

As we were in the ascendancy in the second half I was dissapointed we didn't get a third goal.....maybe we were lacking some quality in and around the box.....and Videk did so well to stick out his foot to save the shot late on from Cockett........however, we did so well to come back twice to earn a draw...

Don't agree with that. Their Noisy neighbours take the lions share and money isn't the answer at this level.
It's good recruitment. Not expense. It's coaching not cost.
Also look at the state Forest are in.
