PROMOTION CHASING NOTTS v The Spireites.

Posted by M64 on June 3, 2021, 12:04 pm

Well, we're here at last, just. I think after seeing Notts get beat by the 12th man at Bromley the fans on Saturday are going to make all the difference.

Thank goodness away fans aren't allowed in. This match would have seen 3 to 5,000 Spireites in normal times and probably a gate approaching 15,000.

If we are all on form we should win this, we have lost already to them of course and they are on a roll but find it difficult to beat top teams.

If we win this, it's away to Torquay, more of that later...hopefully.

I'm going for a 1-0 win.

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

Win or take vacation.
I am sure the players will gladly put vacation on hold.
You seem to have already picked the result, Maggie.
Bring it on!

Let the good times roll (hopefully) We can do it Notts cmon. Remember the Anglo Scottish Cup game many years ago and still want vengence for that!!!
2-0 for me. A blistering start then seeing out the game comfortably. Yes I know, not the Notts norm but then again has anything been that in the last few years.

Dear Fred,

What on earth are we doing playing Chesterfield for a place in the FL?

Thirty years ago I was at Wembley watching us play for a place in the First division, then a couple of months later at Old Trafford for the first game of the season.

Two league sides fallen to desolation.We're not strong enough yet to go the distance realistically and we'll certainly fall at Torquay but for now a late goal will seal it for us 2-1 Pies

Yep couldn't agree more. Was there for them all including the shocking Bradford one. Went to Old Trafford and Aston Villa for the first game back in the top flight and the great Iain Mculloch goal, oh what great times we had then eh Maggie? Wonder what odds we would have got then on us both being in the highly depressing non league playing each other to get back into the league. Say 500/1.Hopefully this is the last year we are here in my or any other Magpie supporters lifetime. Cmon Notts you can do it. Regards from a sunny warm winters NZ day
