Interestingly, post match, Maynard more or less said the same, saying they were not good enough at this level.
Now then, this is very interesting, because when I spoke to one of the owners on the London train after the match I said to him we will not get promoted playing this type of possession based football, to which he replied, you're entitled to your opinion.
Clearly whilst the brothers own the club, the style of play remains. But it is clear to me that Maynard wants defenders that the brothers won't sign. Maynard also said at this level every team pumps balls into the box, which we cannot defend against.
Maynard wants a Stubbs, a Needham, a Kilcline. He may get a Needham but he's not going to get one of the other two, I can see a real conflict of interest over the summer.
Maynard won't be sacked until next season at the earliest, don't forget one of the brothers wrote a paper on the futility of constantly changing managers.
All of which leads us onto Tuesday.
There is no reason why Notts will keep a clean sheet. Therefore at best this will be a draw.
I'm going for 1-1 ...it will probably be 3-1 to Crawley, but we live in hope.
WE'RE THE ONE AND ONLY EXILES....GRRRRRRR
