Match thread vs Barnet

Dreadful game
Bored to tears in first half
Little quality and skill from Notts
Best player on the pitch JCR
How are Notts top of the league
Not complaining obviously but that was terrible.

Sorry , both goalies made great saves so are exempt from any criticism from me .

I didn't agree with the booing of JCR either.

Absolutely save of the season easily imo.

Not sure why some felt the need to boo JCR either, he always put a shift in for us in his two spells here and lesser players have returned to Meadow Lane and received heroes welcomes (Jimmy Spencer)

Agree, decent player for us and he still can put a decent cross in. Would have been nice if we was subbed so he could have been shown some appreciation.

Bloody hell, there must be a good bit of photoshopping done between Meadow Lane and Mexico - that first half from Notts was dreadful, we could barely string two passes together and created next to nothing. Luckily, all their pretty passing was done in their own half and they created less than we did in terms of shots on goal. Much better second half, we started putting some good crosses in the box and should have wrapped things up before throwing them a lifeline. I'd say we just about deserved it, and it wouldn't be Notts without a nervy finish!

Thought Grant fairly invisible today too

This " worldie " are we talking about the deflected shot Collin saved ? I was right in line with it and thought goal , couldn't believe he got to it ! Fitz made a cracker but Collin's save was one of the best I have seen at the Lane !

Yeah me neither. JCR ran himself into the ground most games for us before leaving for a bigger club. No need whatsoever for the booing. Not that it affected him though - he was by far the best player on the pitch.

I meant Fitz one from the header in the second half, Collins was a great tip over but Fitz reaction to a powerful header from six yards out was amazing I thought at the time.
