I have had a lecture on how they are in the premiership and today we will be put to the sword over and over again since the draw was made.
A minibus load of swans are verging on the the classy meadow lane,via a watering hole of which I will be outnumbered,but more than capable of holding my own.
The wife knows that today she is a true magpie,end of.
I however really do hope that we beat these welsh bar-stewards and send them home with clipped wings crying into there leek soup.
I hold on to the belief that magpies are a much more intelligent bird than the swan.
I would say I'm a tad nervous on recent outings from Notts and form isn't that great but today we will need to be resilient,strong,ruthless and lucky.
If we can produce some of our previous form where we are hard to beat,then I feel we have a squeak here today at the lane.
Got a gut feeling ameobi will score,and does like the bigger occasion,and grant back in the goals again.
It's whether defensively we can stand up and be counted.
Taking our chances today will be key.
I don't think we will get too many
Hope the magpies live upto there name today.
We need a thief in the box.
Come on Notts.
