Match Thread vs. Aldershot 07.11.20 [NL]

[KCNotts]

Other than Roberts and Wootton, there is not a single player at the club who I am remotely interested in. They can all go as far as I'm concerned.

Useless.

[Stan Marshall]

Not good enough. I will make some allowances for today but unfortunately that is a typical away performance from Notts. Play for a point and get none. This squad is actually weaker than the one we had at the end of last season. I hope he proves me wrong but I’ve seen nothing from Sam to think he’s either a footballer or a goal scorer.

Plea to our owners - please ditch the useless southerner before we all stop paying to watch, as it's painful

Typical negative Ardley performance. No pace, no urgency, too slow to create anything.

From a player perspective, everyone was poor today. Horrendous first touches, dreadful passing. Couldn't even manage the basics.

We had one shot after they scored... in 25 minutes. Pathetic. Against a team that hadn't won at home and sat in 21st position. We should be going to destroy teams like that.

Credit to them though, they deserved it.

Ardley never sets out to destroy any team!!! He is happy with scrappy 1-0 or 0-0, the man has no idea!!

Ardley never sets out to destroy any team!!!

I disagree.

The one he's destroyed just lost to Aldershot.

[KCNotts]

Mansfield will be buzzing today.

A new, competent manager and an impressive away win.

Notts...take note.

When are you finally going to admit Ardley is useless, the same negative , poor defensive play time after time

I don't go in for categorising posters as 'Pro-Ardley' or 'Anti-Ardley' but if people want to wear either cap, fair enough.

I stand by what I've said before: I'll back the owners whatever decisions they wish to make regarding the manager. I think the Reedtz brothers have earned the right to be left to make such calls and be respected for it either way.

Clearly they believe in trying to build stability and giving a manager (whoever it is) every chance, which is an understandable response to the previous revolving door approach that brought us here in the first place.

However, Neal Ardley has got to show some returns for the faith they've shown in him, and defeats to teams like Dover, Maidenhead and Aldershot obviously don't help.

Ardley post match: "Can't use (3 weeks) as an excuse, everything they did is what we worked on all week, really focussed on what they were going to do, in football you've got to win battles, attacks constantly broke down, nothing tactcial about it, they won the battles, AS DISAAPOINTED AS I'VE EVER BEEN AS NOTTS COUNTY MANAGER. I take full responsibility, on the flip side I can't win a header for my centre-half, not a lot I can say or do about that performance.

How many times have we listened to same crap? and then he will still pick the same players for the next match. What is the point in saying the same thing and then not changing it? He has to go or promotion this season will only be a dream

That was absolutely piss poor fitness isn’t a excuse as there full time and train every day and even when In isolation should of been given a fitness plan to keep to at home.
Elisha Sam is an absolute fraud of man call him a professional? He’d struggle at Ilkeston to make an impact at there level.
