⚽ Match Thread vs. Accrington Stanley 18.01.25 [EFL L2]

I can understand their managers frustration, they were 2nd best in every position for the whole game.

its only our historical proclivity for effing things up that doesnt think this is our year.

That's about it. Logical thinking suggests we have done the hard bit and the rest should be well within our capability, but when have Notts ever conformed to logic? I've looked at our next few fixtures (Bromley, Carlisle, Morecambe, Tranmere at home, Gillingham and Port Vale away) where we should get plenty of points. But whenever someone has posted "we have some easy games coming up" we invariably manage to balls it up!

First time I can remember this season being seriously impressed by our bench...

I was impressed with the players sat on it

I'll get me coat

[Glad2BeAPie]

Didn't even say well done to Notts County

I particularly love the fact Didzy had 42 passes and completed 43 of them and that this was only 81%, although I suspect I'm totally misunderstanding some definitions here

Ah bugger. not sure what I did there! He had 43 passes and completed 35. Next time keep your observations to yourself please 😂😂

Probably the same bloke I heard.

Find this extraordinary.

I?ve not been shy in voicing my opinions about SM when things weren?t going great. I?m very happy to be currently being quiet as that means he and the team are doing well.

If he takes us up my humble pie would taste fantastic.

I couldn?t make it today so could only watch a stream, but it was probably the happiest I?ve been watching a Notts performance all season. We were sharp, direct in our passing and a constant threat in transitions when we had the ball, and pressed relentlessly and looked solid without it. Second half tailed off into dullness but we never looked like conceding and had already got the job done. We have enough good players not to need someone who can?t cope without being the main character every week.

I know Spurs could still recall George, but it?s only our historical proclivity for effing things up that doesnt think this is our year.

A late night treat - Abbott has played in the EFL Trophy for Spurs this season before joining us, which I?m 99% sure counts towards the ?you can only play for two clubs in a season? rule. So while they could recall him it would have to be to play in the first team, which is obviously extremely unlikely, they couldn?t loan him to a higher level.

Sorry, I genuinely thought I was misinterpreting!

Great result that. Accrington aren't the best this season, but if you go away and win 3-0 then you've definitely done a lot right on the day.

Didn't someone post on the prediction score thread that they had got a good home record.? ?
A great result no matter how you look at it.
