    Mmm fascinating but perhaps exciting to see some other faces at last. Cheers for posting, as you saw I am STILL not able to add an image to a post!

    Justified IMO. Our main focus has to be on the League and everything else has tto take second place. But we also have to give first team experience to the likes of Crawford and Bird otherwise we’ll never find out if they’re good enough. This match is an ideal opportunity to do that.

    Not sure about it being ideal. Crawford and Bird have gone from playing none league football to playing a (weakened) Championship team, away, who have flown out the blocks. Still good experience.

    I'd tend to agree with you, but I thought it might be a good idea to give Dennis a start. He's not had many minutes on the pitch so play him from the start and see how long he lasts. Unless he's injured, it's a bit surprising that he's not even on the bench. It looks like Stead will play the lone striker role, with no-one to replace him when he's knackered! Let's see how Notts reserves get on.

    For anyone listening on Radio or iFollow, why on Earth were the crowd at the CG singing 'Mull of Kintyre', the old Paul McCartney song? Anyone know?
