We are only allowed to bring in an emergency keeper outside the windows if a club has no fit senior goalies

Exactly, I was going to post the question why folks are thinking we can sign a keeper while we have Slocombe on the books and available.

I thought you looked a team who were pretty low on confidence first half , if we had got 1 I suspect you might have folded but we lacked that bit of quality or final pass to finish it off .

Second half no complaints you deserved the win on that I thought we looked shot and you got stronger and there was only 1 winner .

Our pitch is the worst it's ever been it always used to be top notch I'm not sure what's happened but it's not helpful for anyone or makes it easy for a free flowing game .

Good luck for the rest of the season

Thought you shot your bolt in the first half with the high intensity press and not much in the tank for the second.
I like the look of your nimble skillful wide left player.

I given the choice Rolf, I would sooner have a Carthorse than a Kangaroo..

You don?t need to tell me or I suspect any Notts fan that. The particular Carthorse?s performances and 14 goals this season tells everyone what they need to know.

Well it should do..

How can you make statements like that from listening to the radio..

Been saying we should mix it up between the two styles for a long time.

Agreed - you can?t only have one way of playing, otherwise you become predictable and easier to defend against. Watch any top team and they?re not averse to a ball over the top and to play at a good tempo.

It is also probably no coincidence that during this recent wobble, two of our last three goals have come from long passes down the flanks.

I thought a club is allowed a senior backup keeper to sit on the bench or stand between the posts.

Looking at this further, I think I might have got this wrong. Do we have any young goalies on the books?
