Never thought I'd see the day when Austin Mitchell was on the bench for Notts.

Oh hang on, there's a comma.

Stall "They've been absolutely in Notts' faces".

No surprise they are up for this, will they be able to keep it up for 90 mins though.

That's the thing with the high press it requires a lot of energy and whilst the rewards are high the longer a game goes on the harder it becomes to sustain it. If they start to drop off then we maybe able to get a grip on this game and punish them that way?

We're starting to gain a bit of control

We need to improve or Austin will be heading down the A40.

Charlie: Notts have had 6 corners, they might as well have had none.

Our set pieces have been poor for years now. Need to improve on them to have any chance of winning this league.

Dosn't help with us lacking in height

Slags 2 down

I usually do a consolation bet on Stags winning, but when I looked at the odds Wimbledon (unbeaten so far) were a very tempting 17/4 with Bet365. I had a modest bet on Wimbledon instead, and have just received an 'early payout notification' if your team go two goals up! Being a renowned fence sitter, I've reinvested a bit of the profit on a draw, and when Stags pulled one back I've put a bit more on the home win.
