THE REVIVED MAGGIES v The Stones.

Posted by M64 on November 26, 2020, 10:19 am

Will our win last Saturday be the turning point it was last season? They didn't play particularly well after the first 20 minutes but at least their heads did not drop.

The injury to Cal Roberts is very worrying, I don't see the point in making him play through pain and with injections, his injury will just get worse. Enzio still is not producing the goods despite his goal, so hopefully we have his return to form to look forward to. Two more goals conceded, what has happened to the famed brick wall defence?

Sam On Rodriguez were very positive highlights last Saturday, I'd like to see Sam in a few months when he's upped his stamina and endurance. He can certainly hold players off, will he be another Shola, well OK maybe not but you can see where I'm going with that one.

The Stones have only taken 1 point in six after their mini run and if we start brightly we should win this.

I'm going for 3-1.

WE'RE THE ONE AND ONLY EXILES....GRRRRR

I second you, Maggie, on a corner turned. I think we will be hard to deal with from now on. It is almost December and we start now, it seems late but the season didn't start until October so it's early doors.
Roll on, 4-1 to the Piessss.

Head over heart for me and a 2-0 win. Can we continue the winning streak? lets hope so but according to the stats they score quite a few and we have a leaky defence this year!!!
Play Enzio in Roberts roll and see if it helps him turn the corner again.

I'm trying to be positive but this is Notts we are talking about.

Hows things in your neck of the woods Swedish?

Regards to all and be safe

NZ FRED, Covid-19 is on the up again. It is almost back where it was in March-April.
This time we are better prepared and the restrictions are also back.
The society is still functioning so I think, given the circumstances, that it is fair.

Mr M makes some good points but Enzio, reall?
Enzio (to me) is a constant surprise as you never know which of the 5-6 games per season he'll make his 2 minutes worth of effort in! Only really known for his 2 -3 wonder goals per season & usually when he's on the pitch, doesn't look like he will ever break sweat (even on a very hot day)! I can only assume that other options signed by NA are even worse

Have Notts turned the corner following the injury time turn around? A question spring to mind - how come in the previous matches the players were unfit due to other circumstances (often conceding late on) but for 1 match at least they were able to (finally) be fit enough to play for umpteen minutes of "injury time"?

As you may gather, i still struggle to believe in Mr Ardley. Seems a nice guy but he nearly always (after match) seems surprised at how organised the opposition are and how well they coped with the conditions (weather, pitch, covid etc)

A few free tips Mr A, train the players. Motivate your players and for fecks sake find a plan B/ C etc as just having a Plan A has been sussed by our local Sunday league players let alone semi professionals and managers who aren't as thick as bricks & know what formation/ style County are going to play!

Rant over (for the moment) surely a 3-0 win!
Oops, nearly forgot the usual schoolboy error of passing to a forward in plenty of space!
Make that 3-2 then to the Maggies!
