I felt they always gave 100% under Ardley, tbf they are a pretty hard working team. It was only a few games ago and we were saying they were even worse than under NA. I think it’s a case of playing slightly more expansive, they have got their rewards and now their tails are up.
Oh no not the respect a point brigade!
How about you respect the fans and try to offer them entertainment and goals. Don't think I've ever disliked a manager more than NA, he made following Notts a chore and not something to look forward to.
If we're gonna lose, then by god have good go doing so.
I think you misunderstand me. I completely agree with you although I would not call him dislikeable. More entirely predictable. Having 'Ardley as manager was like watching mainstream TV with the one good program banned ( in his case being the Rise and Fall of Callum Roberts) and once opposition managers worked that out it was time to subscribe to Netflix!
If you actually believe we can win the playoffs conceding an average of two goals a game you are so niave. I should remind you we finished 3rd last season under NA we wont do that this season. Its no point playing 3 at the back if 2 of them are fullbacks??
Anyone who watched the game last night saw Brinds and Chiksen done in the air over abd over. We got away with it last night we wont in the play offs. Ellis is leading a charmed life. Two goals conceded on average in every game he has played in, that is the reality of the situation. Can we win the playoffs with that stat....... no of course we cant.
