⚽Match Thread vs. Solihull Moors 31.01.23 [NL]

Watching that it looks clear (to me) that their keeper saves the Langstaff 1 on 1 rather than Macca putting it wide. Am I imagining it?

Both were pens.
Scott would've scored. But pause the highlights when Palmer gets knocked over for the 2nd, there were about 8 Moors players blocking any pass. It would've come to nothing. Ardley and the rest of the team should be annoyed with that player - a Jayden Richardson-type foul!

I know we have played the high line all season and is a V.I.T.A.L. part of the pressing game but I was particularly nervous last night especially with the dodgy linesman in the first half .. he was just as dodgy 2nd half but he was doing our attackers.
In fairness the referee seemed better last night but perhaps I'm biased with him giving us two penalties although I thought they both were.
BTW does the 2nd goal count as a goal from a corner

There's no denying that Bostock impacted the game in a positive way last night. Him for Baj was what the game was screaming out for and I wanted Austin on for Scott but LW obviously felt obliged to give Jones more minutes, and in his defence Jones scared the living daylights out of the Solihull players down our right side and appeared to link up nicely with Nemane.

Glad JB and JJ did well, we’re going to need them with so many games coming.

Definitely illuminates our lack of striking opinions.

I don't think NCM has ever been accused of lacking opinions so hopefully we on here can make up for it

[SwalePie]

Can't say anyone has had a good game

I think the ref has!

2-1 Ruben x2 pens

[upthemaggies]

Rodrigues the first Notts player to score 2 pens in a game since Jeff Hughes in 2011.

We never get bloody penalties.
