The Robins v THE SHAMEFUL MAGPIES

Posted by M64 on November 6, 2025, 11:30 am

What an utter disgrace that cup performance was...both of them! I have lost count of the times we have lost to non-league teams in the FA Cup, starting for myself with Runcorn in 1967.

I know others remember Rhyl...Bath City, we must be close to holding the record number of cup defeats to NL clubs.

On to Monday night. Cheltenham under our old boss have won 3 from 4 and unless Notts have a total mind change it will be 4 from 5.

After Ness, Jatta was our best defender against Brackley, as for Roos, he could well cost us promotion, we need a new goalie.

Paterson, after the Man U horror show was scathing about some players saying the door was now shut on them. I wonder if the lightweight Jarvis was one of them and Traore?

I'd be happy with a draw against an inform team.

2-2 for me....

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

This game last season was very entertaining with 9 goals in it, if I remember correctly.
I don't expect that to repeat.
2-1 to Notts will do the trick.

Very hard to disagree with Mr Ms logic although I thought he would go for a modest win, so, I feel obliged to no longer go for the 1-1 draw I was going to go for a 1-0 win
(more in hope than expectation. Just thankful there are no further cup competitions to humiliate our club!)

Well left it as late as I could in the hope that yet another humiliating week in life of being a Notts fan will fade and we see a mighty response from the men in the zebra stripes.

Why oh why do they keep doing this to us, at the least we expect is a fight but alas my grandsons team put more effort into the game of football.
Ive lost count of how many times I have been let down in my now 63rd season but it has to stop.

Will we turn it around, Thinke we will start off well but see another 2-0 reverse as much as it pains me to say. Again prove me wrong Notts.

Just settling down ready for the game to start.

Regards to all from the usual warm and sunny Espana
