Yes, there's too much 'our best chance is the play-offs' nonsense with our fans.

The play-offs are terrible! 6 really good teams with average odds of 16.66% of making it. That's Russian roulette odds so not sure why so many seem happy to pull that trigger!

We're 4pts behind C'field and play them twice still. There's still 26 games so it's in our own hands. Sure it's going to be really tough, but please don't give the signal Upies that play-offs are OK and we're happy with that. They're not. We need to hear from IB and the boys that we're going for top and for them to talk about the gap to 1st and get it closed. That way we're more likely to get 2nd or 3rd as consolation (where the average odds are more like 30% chance).

The aim has to be to be for top spot , the good news so far is that Notts have only been average so far this season in my opinion, if Notts were really able to fire on all cylinders and put a real run of form together after the new year, it is still more than possible

The added advantage of which ,if you just miss, then you are more likely to finish 2nd or 3rd, the importence of which can not be underestimated. A big home crowd for a play off match, might be enough to see us through to the final , where the odds are then 50 % on the day

Thanks for the stats, another fascinating read.

We appear to be the most considerate side in the country for latecomers: still yet to score or concede a goal in the first 15 minutes of a match this season. I suggest Notts offer a bonus for our first player to score within the first 15 minutes (own goals don’t count).

That’s what I like about Notts, always putting the fan first!

If course we aren't happy with play-offs but there's no need for anyone to say we are going for top spot. Of course we are, along with lots of other teams. Makes no difference at all whether he talks about it or not.

I don't agree either that we lack ambition, we are going for top spot whether the players say it or not.

The table says we’ve still got a decent chance of top spot. Our performances generally say we’ve got no chance.

We are clutching at straws if we believe we will get promoted this season. We are to inconsistant, we have no depth in the squad, the football at times is slow and laborious and we rely mostly on one person to get our goals and battle alone up front..

That's the spirit durhampie lol.

That's harsh on Rùben, surely we rely heavily on two not one for our goals this season?#statattack

Still look on the bright side fella we've got a chance via the playoffs

I’m far from convinced by us as title challengers, but you can hardly say we rely on one person for our goals when someone else has scored exactly the same number as him.
