⚽ Match Thread vs. Mansfield Town FC 14.10.23 [EFL L2]

A combo of both. Tactically they were miles better than us. Forced us to go long, to dwarves.
I dont think Cargill and Flint will have easier days than today… we have them practice and then let them have a free header from corners.

It was a good delivery but why has Slocombe not come for it? Only going off memory but looked quite a floated ball and didn't notice and particular pressure on him.

i'm not particularly bothered about promo this season. As long as we don't trouble the drop zone and take note of where we need to improve .in fact matches like today may well do us a favour by pointing out where we desperately need to improve.

yes

You would have imagined the back 3 we had on the pitch should be able to defend corners and dead ball situ's. Apparently not..

Why? They had 2 centre backs that are 6ft 5…. We have Brindley and Baldwin who just about scrape 6ft and Rawlo who is 6ft 2…. The issue is all the other players we have that aerially are inept.

David Jackson just now on RN asking Stall if that result was damaging and do Notts need to re-think what they do.
Stall saying we need to do it better.

I think Rawlo should keep his place next weekend. He did OK

If Bostock's out, it's a real worry.

I’m sure LW & Notts players will learn from today and become stronger

Well if you could of dreamed up a more nightmare result I don't think it was possible, pretty pathetic performance today with the odd bright spot... if it were anyone but Mansfield it would be a little easier to take, LW has serious work to do judging by that shambles 🤔 😳

[marky]

Swindon winning already

Just seen Crowley’s elbow, lucky boy

There was a post earlier this week which said we hadnt played a team like notts yet thing is we play exactly the same style the big difference between us is we can defend

True, Notts can't defend for toffee, we all know that. What we sort of rely on is out-scoring the opposition, but not today, obviously.
