We know there are problems at the back and would like to see Baldwin and Tipton in the side probably in a back 4
As worrying for me was Palmer and Bostock ran the midfield last season in virtually every game and rarely gave the ball away but yesterday they were both bullied and gave the ball away a lot.
Hopefully it was mainly down to us having 10 men
We fell behind early just as in the play offs, but this time we were playing better opposition, so when we went down to 10 men it effectively ended the game as we were already behind
As for sutton finishing 14th, they were a much better home side than that, in fact they won 11 at home , out of the 15 they won all season, in fact only 4 teams won more games at home than Sutton last season
Notts had the best away record in NL, its obvious that this time, we are going to struggle more at gaining points on the road
