The Spireites v CAN'T BEAT THE BUS MAGGIES

Posted by M64 on October 10, 2024, 11:39 pm

I'm afraid after another home loss, the blueprint of how to beat us is out there. A long ball over the top to set up the first and perhaps only goal then park the proverbial bus as Notts seem bereft of ideas of our to break an eleven man defence down.

First the Gills now Vale. I'm hoping CFC won't be the same as they are the home side so I expect them to attack.

It's going to be quite a raucous affair and hopefully this Notts side won't fold as maybe last season's would have.

Thankfully, McGoldrick will be back, how we missed his guile against Vale.

I'd be happy with a point, anything than the last time I saw Notts at the old Saltergate ground, it was 1969, we lost 5-0 and had Dave Needham sent off.

Odd things you recall as a youngster, I remember hearing Malcolm Macdonald had scored for Luton Town on the way back home. Years later I got to know his brother, it's a small world.

1-1 for me.

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

Another disappointing home game against Port Vale.
Time to put some work in in order to get something from this game.
Against any logic I will go for a 3-1 win.

I have no idea of a score but not confident. Mcgoldrick needs to play with two up top but alas listening to SM dont think he will start. need him to start and get ahead not coming on when were chasing the game.

Parking the bus is ok but we do not have any idea to break it down.

Think a loss but going for a 2-1 win.

Regards to all from a warm Espana

One of those sides that Notts often fail to perform at their best against. Following on from 2 other poor showings, things don't look good for this one.

As a new tactic, I suggest that County also learn to dominate other statistics , like shots taken & shots on target. Things would improve drastically once most of the faffing about and gifting the opposition a goal comes to an end!

Why not start against the bent spires?

3-0 win against all odds
