It will be very interesting to see if they've done the scouting on us and go with a 3 at the back with wingbacks like Rochdale and gillingham - if they do we're going to have to react to it a lot better than we did in those 2 games.
You would have to assume that they have scouted us, they are just down the road after all, and have identified our left side as a weakness.
As such, I would like to see one dropped, of Crooks or Grimes, (the latter seems unlikely), to make way for Mcwilliams, as a DM, to cover any gaps if Turnbull gets pulled out of position to cover/assist Bunney, when he gets skinned again. JJ is wasted at the back, he has to play up front with long.
I guess that we will know, if they have watched us, if they target our left in the first ten minutes.
I see that Jack Bridge made the bench recently, does anybody know anything about his best position? Is he the tenacious ankle snapper that we currently need?
I cant make this one, as my elderly mother is back in hospital, after a fall. She certainly picks the right times..
Still, we always beat Poxford, though.

I agree - it will be amazing if they don't adopt the same tactics as the previous 2 home opponents which is why it will be interesting to see what jimmy's been working on this week, to not have a plan to combat it would be negligent.  Regarding bridge - obviously none of us have seen him yet but I thought the reports on him when he signed was that he is more of a winger/attacking midfielder than a tough tackling midfielder.

Find it strange you feel the need to keep posting this (or type) message! Woman trouble?
Not at all Cecil I have a lot of women and they all love Feely. I just don't think Hass is a good Manager, he's tactically inept. I hope I'm wrong but rarely am.

I'm assume you're going Superfan?

It’s good news Bellamy has yet to be appointed before the game ( so far ).
We need to be on our game against these and know what to do if the full backs get pushed back this time .
Hopefully we get out the blocks better than we have done recently .

Bellamy replaced by Sol Campbell on The Debate on SKY sports tonight, is he about to take over and be in the stand tomorrow?

Mr Campbell has a very high opinion of himself..

What a first class bellend. "It's not like it's rocket science to run a football club, especially when you get to that level". Actually, in many ways you need to be better manager at "that" level as you typically don't have the financial resources at you disposal, nor do you have players that are physically or mentally capable of doing everything you ask of them, so you have to work that little bit harder to get results.

I wonder if he displayed such a high handed and condescending attitude in his interview? If so then it's no surprise he didn't get the job. I once interviewed someone and at the end did the usual thing and asked if there were any questions he wanted to ask us. He replied "Yes, why does a company like this need an IT professional with my calibre and experience?" He was out the door before his feet touched the ground. I wouldn't mind but I'd only asked him out of courtesy; his answers throughout the interview had been crap!

Oh well, as the Notts County fans used to sing, "We've got Sol, but he's not a soldier...."

3-0 up after 20 mins.  Late fightback from our "pals" down the road to make for a jittery finish, until a last minute breakaway seals the points.  4-2 to us & 3 welcome points.

I had a couple if sessions with the old notts county physio and he said someone had to explain to him what the jpt was . I think he considers himself to be far superior to the football league
