It didn't look good at HT, sounded like we were very poor. I thought we were done for the day.
Tremendous come back though. Everybody's happy and so should you be.

why not vent your fury at full time if we loose ???
football played over 90 mins not 45, what a bunch of clowns you look now.
notts really do have the most fickle fans in the football league

I'll say this for you.....you always back Notts no matter what and not in sycophantic way. Fair play.

I was very disappointed to read the early posts on today's match thread. I was always brought up to believe that football was a game of two halves, and lasted at least 90 minutes.
Please get behind Notts, and remember where we were this time last year! COYP.

For 50 minutes we were not in the game, 1 shot on target?.....but I am not sure there was any "fury" being shown on the Match Thread....FWIW, here is my assessment of both halves from that thread

Colchester look superb.....quick balls from their keeper, 4 passes later they are on the attack...pace, skill, passing....they are carving us open and raining shots at Collin...at one point they ran the length of the field from a quick throw out from the keeper to get a corner.....another time there were 20 odd passes without Notts getting a touch.....their goal was superb quick passing that left their striker one~on~one against Collin that he calmly placed into the corner of the net.
No idea what the answer is but Nolo needs to do something at half~time
Amazing turnaround.....for 50 minutes we were not in this game, Colchester dominated the first half and hit the post at the start of the 2nd with Collin scrambling across the box to try to get a hand on a header.
Notts went straight up the other end...cross to the near post, flicked on and Forte calmly slotted it in, took a couple of steps towards the Notts fans behind the goal and calmly saluted them.....Mr Cool as a pointy vegetable.
You could visibly see Colchester drop their heads....the 2nd Notts goal was simply oustanding in its simplicity...a quick throw out by Collin, who had obviously been told to speed the game up, Virtue ran the full length of the wing with Toots for company, fed Toots who cut inside the defender and hammered it low and hard into the box to Forte, thunderous shot that the keeper parried to Shola, who threw his whole body at the rebound...oh what joy
Notts pretty much dominated the game from then on and the 3rd goal was a simple glancing header by Duffers from a free kick 10 yards outside their box.
Rarely have I seen a game of two completely different halves.....whatever Nolo said at halftime he needs to record and say it again at the start of the next game....tremendous Notts 2nd half performance.
Automatic promotion is still on the cards
