Nemane has definitely done enough to deserve more time at Notts.
I saw somewhere that they have one of the higher wage bills as well. Their owner is like a vegan, virtue-signalling Alan Hardy.
Agree with all that, but I think Austin might be worth keeping around as a squad player.
The problem is, Maynard was recruited primarily because of the way he likes to play. If he were the type of manager who likes to get it forward early and not "dominate possession", he wouldn't have...
I'd be happy with a back four next season, with Macari and Cameron as full-backs plus two new CBs who aren't inexperienced, physically or mentally weak, injury-prone, or error-prone.
I prefer Cameron. Baldwin is the absolute worst when it comes to individual errors, and nothing he does makes up for the sheer amount of goals he's directly caused by being careless and error-prone.
I turned off the stream at half time and just saw the highlights this morning. I felt physically angry watching their fourth and fifth. I have no idea how you can show that little desire.
I hope so. I'm concerned that our leadership have become too ideological in their pursuit of possession-based football that they are blinkered to the reality that it doesn't work that well at this...
Baldwin in our current setup is an absolute disaster. We have no idea what he'd be like in a normal team that primarily asks defenders to defend, and I don't suppose we'll find out.
Baldwin was at fault for the fourth too and that had nothing to do with tactical instructions. He simply didn't try hard enough to stop their player scoring. You can't coach that out of players, the...
Congrats! I think you'll do fine next season - decent manager, solid squad, and an owner with fairly deep pockets.
Imagine how outraged Stags fans would be if one of us went on their board to...
Last night just highlighted the deficiencies in our squad. Starting with two OAPs, a back three that cannot defend, not a single person able to put a foot in and win the ball in midfield.
What...
Such a shame we didn't manage to scrape two or three more points this season, as it would at least make the run-in more interesting. All those avoidable mistakes and near misses...
They're already up, but they'll want to confirm the title. I think they'll edge it, but we'll make a good account of ourselves.

Rewatching that makes me wonder how many goals JJ could get at this level playing as a wide forward.
We're such a schizophrenic side. Two of the best players in the league, several of the worst. It's just a shame that the worst elements weren't addressed, allowing us to challenge for promotion.
He really deserves to. He's such a talented commentator/presenter that I'm genuinely surprised that the BBC hasn't pushed him into higher profile roles yet. The guy's a star.
The only problem is,...
Doncaster looked bloody awful when we played them this season. Just goes to show that most of the teams in this division are average.
Next season will definitely be easier to get promoted....
I think the 'Langstaff doesn't do it in big games' thing is a bit overblown. Last season the big games were against Wrexham and Chesterfield. He scored one against Wrexham and three against...
Tough one! Obviously I'm biased towards Langstaff because he's our player. He's a bit younger and is on an amazing journey up through the leagues. Mullin is a different beast and dropped down two...
That's where I'd play him. He's decent on the ball for a defender and can even put a cross in, so full-back makes sense.
Yeah, at least Mullin's dives lead to something positive for the team. What is it with Notts and diving centre-backs? Duffy was the absolute worst for that, going down like he'd been shot. The refs...
Just a quick question: if we continue to turn the corner, is there a danger that we'll just keep going round in circles?
Outstanding!
