Sadly, this^^^
As good as we can be, we just don't look like a team who's headed for auto promo.

Laddo you correectly pointed out that i had been recently mocked by the rose tinted brigade , after the Solihull win, well there not mocking me now
What i said still stands, for me everything went right for notts last week, they were put under no pressure,
i asked the question, what would happen if a team puts us under pressure, would we collapse, the last 2 matches have given us the answer as i predicted, weak at the back, and will fall apart under pressure
If this is the best in 30 years, and IB is a championship manager, i am landing on the moon tomorrow, complete fantasy, i do not mind people celebrating a win, but no need for them to go completely over the top, and get carried away
Stags assistant being interviewed now, sounded like he was doing an impression of Clough at first with an "errrrrm" every few seconds.
They're 17th but only 6 points behind the play offs now.
So, we were tired, there we have it.
Wasn't there today, but my guess is that IB's way can be TOO dependent on playing out from the back....
Last week it was Pato and Lacey against Solihull...it worked
This week it's Sloco Rawlo plus Brinds and Chicks against a team that was happy for them to do that....there's no belief or drive back there (without Cameron) or particular ability to do it. And to make matters worse Stall and Slater said our wing-backs were outplayed as well.
Today might have been a time to surprise them and mix it up with a 4-2-3-1 or something.
