Even first half really. We've edged possession of course but they look like scoring as much as we do.

It's going to be interesting to see which team gets on top in the 2nd half.

Agreed, I thought that half was a really good game of football.

As Chicken Balti says, imagine if we could defend, we'd be at the top by 10 points ha ha. They say start from the back and build the team that way, we're just doing it the other way cause we're Notts and like to make things harder than it should be! Some of the play though that half was just a joy to watch, just not the play in our half ha ha.

As you said earlier the way we play is excellent. We unfortunately set the wrong tone at the start with indecision from Brindley and then Baldwin being a bit sloppy which led to the first goal. The second goal nobody was marking Jennings and he shouldn't really have had so much space in the box. It is these vulnerabilities and weaknesses that we have at the back that we get punished for. Once we can iron these out and remain organised and composed we will be unstoppable as it's not like Tranmere have been firing shots left right and centre.

On the plus side everything else has been fine and spot on. Pleasing to see Nemane getting on the scoresheet again. The little Jones-Crowley multiple one touch passing show for the Langstaff goal was a joy to see. John Bostock has been all over the pitch as well involved with everything and doing a good job in the Palmer role. McGoldrick coming deep as well to collect the ball.

We have got a bit of Moniz if they score 3 we will score 4 about us and that's basically what we've got to try and do outscore Tranmere if we want to get all three points as I feel they could score again as well.

Anyone else having issues with ifollow today? My picture quality is rather flaky.
