Your prediction? For the first time ever (and we've been very very close before), I'm saying:
Relegation
Relegation.
Anything else would be a very pleasant surprise.
Safe by 2 points.
Relegation unless we act now. 7 games to go and we need someone to get us out of this mess and Ardley is not that man.
I think Notts are sadly all done now after yesterday. I would love to think differently but the gut-wrenching moment at the end of the game following Macclesfield's equaliser felt like a pivotal moment. Nevertheless, I want Notts to keep fighting hard until that mathematical moment where survival is impossible.
I have, for perhaps the third time this season, accepted the fact that we are going down - barring an absolute miracle, which I absolutely do not expect to happen.
Last Saturday was the match that did us. We had a golden opportunity and somehow turned it into a loss. That's what relegated teams do. If we'd won that, I'd expect a recovery. If we'd drawn, I'd still be hopeful. But that defeat, and the manner of it, tells me we are done for.
I think we'll probably be relegated with a game to go, and then eventually be at least 4 points adrift by the end of the season.
Relegation
