There was no arrogance at all, it made sense for anyone brave enough to take it on. When it hit the bar I must admit thinking "here we go again, typical Notts", but it all worked out brilliantly because Cedwyn exorcised the ghost of Wrexham. How anyone can bring up negatives from that day is beyond me.
