Notts 67% possession…. Imps 33%
Notts shots 1…. Imps 6
On target.. Notts 0…. Imps 4
Corners… Notts 1…. Imps 3

Deja vu…. all over again

Possession means nothing if it is just passes around the edges. If it is the same as Sutton then it just illustrates the fact that we are ineffective where it matters.

We've only just started the season. It'll get sorted

All our fingers are crossed on that one.

We've only just started the season. It'll get sorted

I remember thinking the same thing the last time we got relegated. Although I've got much more confidence in LW and the Bros to get it sorted than I did with Hardy.

2 minutes into the half and it's 2-0.

Burchnallball is back!!

I think this just shows how crap the NL was, not how good us and Wrexham were!! I know it's a L1 club we're playing but we're just not doing the basics well!!!! Thankfully it's just a cup game but we'll struggle to stay in L2 at this rate.

This is going well

Seems LW has lost what stopped him being Burchnall

So he had it 46 games, but he's lost it in a game and half? Saturday was awful, unfortunately I haven't been able to get tonight, but we're playing different players in a different system by sounds of it against higher opposition, it was never going to be easy.

For me the most surprising thing tonight is that the board is under heavy load and is working ok

[MAD_MAGPIE]

We've clearly got to go through a transitional period and it looks like it's going to take us some time to adapt and find out feet playing against EFL teams. Baring in mind this is a team that finished 11th in League One last season and there are key players not playing.

We've been nervy since the start of the season and we need to overcome that.
