THE HALF WAY THERE MAGGIES v The Spireites

Posted by M64 on May 14, 2026, 11:33 am

I think the second half of the first leg saw one of the best defensive displays by a Notts side I have seen in many a year.

We stood firm. We were not bullied. I think keeping Palmer out who may pass well but never tackles and including Robertson and Norburn in midfield was a shrewd move.

I just hope Jatta gets better service at home and puts himself about more. He did play a part in our goal.

I see no reason to change the side and a draw will see us through. They have to come and score otherwise they are out and that may allow us to get another goal to put the final nail in their coffin.

The big question surely though must be, will Paul Cook have a heart attack? Good grief, his veins were bulging last Sunday. He'll do himself a mischief.

Notts to win 2-0 and get to WEM-BER-LEY...WEM-BER-LEY

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

I agree with you, Maggie.
Our defensive performance was excellent.
We have a saying in Sweden, ”No one crosses the bridge”.
What a well well worked goal we scored, brilliant,
A draw will suffice but ever the blue-eyed fool I am, i think we will win tomorrow.
3-1 to Notts.
Jattaboy!

A bit late but here goes. Thought the first leg was a very proffesional performance, an odd moment but that win must boos the confidence no end.

Correct line up for first leg so no chamges please and hopefully a better result.

Early goal then 2 opened up goals for a 3-0 win. If only If only.

Regards to all from a bit of cloudy evening in Espana
