    Conceding 2 goals a game....

    And not scored from open play in 2 home matches.

    Does Nolan still believe we don't require new CB and Striker?

    I'm guessing there will be a bit of a victim story coming out from this one, it wasn't us it was the ref. But Nolan could have replaced Virtue when he was on a yellow card, that's what most managers do, it's not being wise after the event. At least he has an excuse to drop him now, the experiment hasn't worked.

    It doesn't help when your keeper goes mental and gives away easy penalties either. I like Ross, but that's idiotic.

    We shouldn't be in a position at home where a goal in the last minute leaves us with no points.

    This^^^

    It baffles me why you would drop a system that has bought us all our success up to this point in the season. OK, I know we've lost a good defensive midfielder but why not replace him? As for tonight, well, it was the keeper what lost it guv, in more ways than one.

    He shouldn't start another game for Notts after that. Absolute idiot.

    It was a very prickly (in fact slightly arrogant and mardy) reaction from Kevin Nolan to a perfectly legitimate question from Charlie Slater about the one up front tactics.

    Was Nolan right about the referee tonight? Yes, he was poor and needs to look at himself in the mirror.

    Was Nolan right about Fitzsimons costing us a point tonight? Yes, Ross was poor in that moment and needs to look at himself in the mirror.

    Was Nolan at fault for using the same tactics that failed on Saturday and failed again tonight? Yes, the manager was poor and needs to look at himself in the mirror.

    Nolo's interview after the game suggests he was struggling with that particular aspect of responsibility.
