I think the teams playing in the eliminator games have a huge advantage over those in the Semis. Will be a huge factor having proper match practice ahead of the game. No disrespect to Dorking meant because a friendly is very different to a competitive game
To be honest if we could just turn some of these draws into wins we'd be in a good position.
Worrying fact is that we haven't learned from last year and some of the problems like defending headers, defending set pieces still remain. I'm not sure what it is but it plagued Nolan, Kewell and now...
Definitely feels like the officially going for it klaxon has been sounded but I do feel that trying to bounce back at first attempt will be our best shot. Otherwise our budget is always just going to get smaller and smaller and attracting players will get harder.
Got to hope that football radar...
Notts have signed Kyle Wootton on a season long loan. To be honest I see why we have signed a target man, but quite liked the fact that not having one forced us to play football and to stretch the opposition teams by playing a pacey player alongside a finisher in Dennis.
Best of luck to Kyle...
What are the chances that the FA and EFL become far more involved in Bolton's case than Burys?
Bolton are probably in an even worse position going by what little has been shared. The craziest thing about Bury's situation is that Dale effectively gambled and lost that he could sell on the asset...
Think it’s obvious what happened to Kewell. Harry Kewell.
Notts fans called for Nolan after each game on social media and if you were at the Lincoln game, many even shouted it at his face when he came over at the end. Think he was gone next game?
I’m not saying the fans have been responsible...
So calling for Kev Nolan after one game last season wasn’t trigger happy? A manager that had a 42% win ratio
Calling for Ardley after Eastleigh wasn’t trigger happy either then. Basically it’s all the chairman’s fault these get sacked. Nothing to do with fans adding pressure
As for worse...
Surprised Ince is as high as that
To be in some way fair to Ardley. I don’t think he’s come in to an easy position as a manager and I don’t think many managers would have done a better job. You could even use your list as evidence of as much.
Appointing the right manager is hard, especially...
Honestly I don’t blame Ardley for dropping points yesterday. One was an on the field error from the keeper and the other just one of those freak own goals.
We at least tried to play to our strengths yesterday. I do feel that the Tootle situation is odd... hopefully he’s ok but he should be playing
To be honest we played well in spells but we're undone by two terrible bits of defending.
Our goals were well worked, well taken. Ebbsfleet had the luck. Not sure which one was worse to concede out of the two.
Soon as Rose went into defence it all went Pete Tong. Doyle needs to retire. We...
You can only be a brother if you are a brother. Many wish to be brothers but envy is a deadly sin.
I look forward to a Herculean bout with brother Wrexham tomorrow.
Patching never looked like he fancied the physical side of the game in the little I saw him play. Football cliche alert but it’s a mans game and you can be the biggest baller going but if you can’t take the physical side, it’s not going to end well for you
