Barnet

Whoops!

I'd imagine Kewell will be very keen to "do us" as well. If I was him I certainly would be!

Watched a couple of interviews with Kewell since he took charge of Barnet. I have nothing against Kewell, possibly a bit arrogant, thought he was harshly treated by Hardy. Anyway, my point is, his interviews were exactly what you’d expect from a manager/ex-player. Stereotypical sound bites. Complete contrast to Burchnall who comes across very intelligent, certainly in the football world. A breath of fresh air.

And, I know, football matches aren’t won based on who sounds the best in an interview.

Given the two appalling performances and results we’ve had on the opening day in this league, we’re well due for something better.

Barnet away is, I think, a game we should win.

Agreed. That's why I'm predicting a draw or a narrow 1-0 loss.

I can't imagine Kewell bearing a grudge against Notts in particular, Hardy perhaps, but that's not Notts now.

Thanks to Jacob's great preview post I see that Banet have signed jamie Turley.
If a remember a gritty determined defender but prone to the odd mistake when he played on loan for us.
I sense a hat full of goals for us, let's hope we can keep them out at the other end.
4-2 notts ...

Haha! I'm inclined to agree

Over 1000 Notts fans going tomorrow. just looked Barnets average home fans last season 1235 I think we might have more that them tomorrow.

Now that would be great and funny. Think the lack of chances of going to a live match and the first match of the season combined will swell their numbers. However think we can cancel out the majority of that vocal home advantage.

Committed would be a word I would use. But at the time we were shipping goals for fun and he was seen as an improvement on Brisley et al
