Match Thread vs Coventry City (07.04.18)

[SwalePie]

Six changes today and birthday boy Stead is injured Ameobi and Forte are up front together

[Notts78]

Got to be happy with that. Big man n a quick man up front.
Hopefully a rejuvenated Grant firing on all cylinders.

Is Steady having a birthday party at home then?
Can someone 'in the know' compare this team with the one that lost 0-3 to Cov on the opening day? How many will have played in both?

Good to see Forte starting today. We are weak down the right hand side though with the unimpressive Virtue at RW. Still, not a bad team. Lets hope that shooting practice the lads have been doing this week pays off today.

Virtue, Forte and Noble are the only three starting today that didn't play on the opening day.

I like it as well. I reckon this has been our best available combination up front but we've hardly ever seen it.
Hawkridge, Allesandra and Wallker have been given so many chances so it's good to see Virtue with his chance.

What's going on at Mansfield is the biggest thing helping us into a play-off spot atm

[skandark]

Exeter just gone behind as well, losing 1-0 at Cambridge
