Slater is right - too many changes don't look so smart if you go behind

Slater can say what he likes it will be a sports science decision too as IB stated earlier in the week players with knocks.

Liverpool made 5-6 changes today too they hung on for a win but it’s needs must when games come thick and fast.

On paper Aldershot are poor but they still need points to be safe and they will fight this was never going to be an easy game.

Ref just turned down a defo pen for Notts to make up for the earlier decision.

Nah, this smacks of IB being too smart for his own good - too many changes today.
As you say in your last line - as the most difficult of our remaining fixtures, this match warranted our best side.
Monday against Dover was the match to give a rest to anyone who needed one. And this isn't hindsight, I fully expected our strongest team today as I think most did.

As I said earlier, we have a great coach, just need a good Manager!

I certainly did. Burch needs to bring Arter and Sam (at least) on at half-time. The problem is, it's much more difficult to reclaim initiative when you've already given it away.

Maybe but im not surprised with the changes after what he said midweek.

He is looking ahead trying to keep players not only fit but fresh.

We havent lost this one yet but we have alot of work to do.

I don't know on what basis Brunt earned a place. He'd better come up with something more than he has previously.
