Notts County (A) League 1 Wednesday 2/2/11.

[bleed_red_n_white]

I see this one as a bridge too far for the boys, they already looked tired on Saturday, sadly I think we'll lose this one...

[hullsaddler]

A 1-0 win

[Fray Bentos is God!]

So who's going then?

I am.

[Aldridge_saddler]

I want to just need transport :)

[Darth Vader]

I want to just need transport :)

You have legs. Run! :D

[Rich Evans]

My brother has talked me into going. Seeing as its his turn to drive.

[Magic Man Fan]

7-1 win and another DVD to be on sale.

Should that happen i hope there will be some ambulances on hand for the numerous heart attacks at the squirril end!

Though they totally humiliated us a few weeks ago, this is a totally 'different' team that we are sending to Meadow Lane,
and, they may be a little tired after Sundays action, and are by no means 'safe' in thier current League position, we could surprise ourselves again, expect goals from both sides but with us coming out on top...say 2-3? Certainly hope so, cus I'll be there!

Is this the same m.o.g.? Long may he stay ;) I agree mate, not sure the heavy pitch will suit our new free flowing passing style though!

[BathSaddler]

I'll take a point NOW from this.

Let's just hope they're still knackered from yesterday's FA Cup exertions - that's our best chance of getting something.

[SheffieldSaddler]

Hope there are no helicopter images, cus when Matt & Hughes collide on that silky smooth pitch it'll be like a billiard table! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Don't mention helicopters on here, it upsets some people.

[Aldridge_saddler]

looks like there is going to be a good few of us going, lets hope we can make a sensational atmosphere!!

[WFC_Rob]

After watching Notts County against Man City, If they put in as much effort into the game it will be hard for the boys I think the best I can hope for is a draw

But how many times do we see teams crash back down to Earth shortly after performing some FA cup heroics?
It'll be a difficult pitch and a real battle, but we shouldn't go into it too negatively.

A lot of people said we'd flop after big F.A cup ties but just won't happen that year, Drew 2-2 with Wigan at home went to Dagenham and Redbridge won 3-0 then went to Wigan for the replay won 2-0 then had Grimsby 4 days later and won, this year went to Sunderland won 2-1 then a few days later went to Southampton drew 0-0 they didn't get a shot on target all game.
Since the last time we played:

Walsall 0-3 Notts County

Hello Mr Notts Sir!

I completely understand your use of the form book but after a 6-1 Victory you could say its out of the window, we are playing the best football in a long time. You could forgive us for thinking we may be able to sneak something here.

We have the players to cause you problems, all we need to do is keep our head all over the pitch.

I don't want to predict because I dont know.

Sven's my favourite Swede too.

Completely understandable, cracking result for you as well. I did watch the goals, highlights ect.. and can't see you getting the opportunity to be able to score most of those - especially the two Butler goals? or the ones which were headers or from corners ect.. we're probably the strongest team in the air in this division. Hence if you watched us V Man City aerially they didn't have a chance v Pearce and Edwards even with Jo 6ft 2-3 who was woeful and that Bosnian Dzeko they paid stupid money being 6ft 4, they only could compete by getting round behind us with speed. I think a lot of people underrated us - teams don't like playing against us Bishop and Ravenhill in the middle are absolutely fearless. Should be a scrappy game today, even though we've loss Davies we've gained a better attacking player in Alan Gow who can still whip in a great ball!

Although similarly you could say we might be over confident and just going by paper stats we should be. Hoping for a good game though :)
