It’s a hard watch. Mcg aside not a lot to shout about. Bass on form thankfully

[crazyfists]

Well that was terrible wasn't it ha ha, only bright point being Brown seems like he could be ok in the long run.

Minor injuries keep Robertson, Abbott and Austin out - but there's a first league start for Rod McDonald.

Youngster Madou Cisse makes the bench along with Lucas Ness.

I’ll wait for the bed wetters to set upon me but my 1st half observation so far

Didzy - awful legs can’t take so much football as he’s being asked to play
Palmer - Awful needs dropping sorry if this offends anyone but be honest with yourself
Crowley - is he playing again? Why does the BT engineer insist on playing him so ineffectively deep? Another needs dropping to kick him up the arse no one bigger than the club
Jatta - running around like a headless chicken
McDonald - not seen anything to impress me yet paid a fee for him god help us he looks lost
Hinchy - Dog ****e nowhere near good enough get rid in January
Gordon - playing **** today but been isolated out wide
Tsarroulla - best notts player on pitch first half
Brown - for once is making effort after coming on
Macari - not quick enough to keep up with there winger Kouyate they seem to be playing on this fact

Bedeau should never of been dropped and upto now may aswell take the front two off and play with no strikers as they’ve been non existent but saying that also has no service.
Can’t wait till Jodi is back badly badly missing his flair and creativity.
These are playing high and we always struggle against a team doing that so where’s Maynard’s Plan B and go long or something instead of playing out from the back 100% of the time.
Fingers crossed for a better second half.

Just about half time and no joking we should be probably 4/5 behind, Barrow absolutely have our number and played us off the park for most of that half... we have shown very little and nobody deserves any praise for that debacle 😞

John Thompson summing up at HT: Barrow looking comfortable, Notts need to massively improve.

[Mud Pie]

if anything, the momentum has shifted since Brown came on. Still think we might perk up and get something from this.

but even if we do, it shouldn't hide the weakness of our early goals against, and barely functioning midfield.

[matt_magpie]

Well that was pretty bad, second best to everything but last 5 or 10 better and thought Brown looked decent.
Good news it’s we’re only 1 down and there’s enough talent in that 11 to turn it around if they can get their act together.

We are simply not simply not in this!! Midfield is garbage losing the battle completely

Yes, we can say confidently now that central midfield is our weakest area so far this season.

It's seems a long time ago that Bostock and Palmer (pre-injury) used to boss the midfield for us. Palmer and Crowley have been awful tonight. Hinchy no shakes either, hence the subbiing.
