Looking at the weather forecast it could be postponed

No draws in 11 meetings, no draws in 7 meetings at ML.
They've only won once away and that was just up the road from them at Cheltenham. I expect they will be playing for a point.

I've been predicting draws recently but surely we will win this one.

2-1

I'd say there was lots of pretty astute analysis on this board after the Walsall game. That some of it is contradictory is just the nature of football. Trying to learn from what everyone's said and marry it to what I thought I saw, makes me think the Swindon game might be tricky.

On paper, Notts squad and form should be enough, but I don't think it's that simple. Ultimately fatigue, limited options off the bench (and to an extent, for the starting lineup), and individual mistakes were the main reasons we couldn't capitalize on our first half form (Walsall's quality and run of form too, but that doesn't effect tomorrow).

Think we're going into tomorrow with key players either leggy (especially Jatta and McG), still out, or just coming back off injury. To me that suggests that the coach needs to step up - somehow! I think the same could be said for them - if they're do beat an objectively better side, they'll need smarts. We desperately need some verve up front, some bite in midfield, and some more consistently good decision making from Crowley especially, but Palmer too.

If we can find enough resources in those depts, we'll win, simples. We've shown some good resilience this season, and there's goals in this team, so I'm a going to say we will be able to dig deep. Sounds funny given his early form, but Josh Martin may be the difference tomorrow.

tldr: Notts 2 Swindon 0

Crowley, Jatta

just to qualify this, I mean from the 2nd, and defining, half. Notts from the first half would clean the clocks of anyone in the league.
