Title: Notts County Match Thread
Post by: robininstockport on May 06, 2022, 09:56:01 AM
Defo no Hulme or Kosylo, defo not at full strength.

Big ask to win with a full squad available. Looking forward to my last away game of season.

Notts co. 2-1 Alty (hall)

I was seriously unimpressed with Hall on Monday unlike other posters. Hope I'm wrong and he's just in a settling in period.
Funnily enough, Nicky Clee seemed to go through this and he didn't turn out so badly did he?!
Without our first choice number 9 and 10 we're going to seriously struggle tomorrow and a draw would be a massive result for us.
I believe we can do it. I'm going 1-1 with one of our defenders scoring for us from a set piece or corner.
Incidently, I hope we'll see a much higher incidence of goals from set pieces next season with all the extra training time we've got now we're full time.

Hall is massively stepping up here, it would take time. Thats why Phil is looking at him. He needs to improve in many areas for me and maybe a step to far at present.

Really tough game this, there in good form, were going to be missing several players u front, and that maybe the difference. Massive if we can get a draw. COYR

Yes I'm a bit confused by the enthusiasm for Hall mixed with the disregard for Dinanga. The latter is streets ahead.

Valiant defeat tomorrow and a party atmosphere in the away end. Hope plenty can make the trip.

Hall v Dinanga is an interesting one.

Remain to be convinced by Hall but not seen enough to write him off. One thing for sure looks like he's trying and prepared to do the graft

Neither is good enough imho but Hall has a chance until the end of the season to prove he has the potential.

Don't agree, Hall was able to hold the ball up and bring others into the game, something Fiz, Piggot, Dinanga were not able to do

He didn't seem to hold the ball up to me. Plus we need someone to tie up the centre backs as Hulme does. His clear header under no pressure which he put wide from inside the area late in the game could have earned us (a probably undeserved) three points.
Dinanga has done it for Dartford in the South but imho has had enough of a chance to demonstrate he's not what we need up front.

As I said, Hall still has a good chance to improve and earn a contract for next year.
Title: Re: Notts County Match Thread
Post by: andrewflynn on May 06, 2022, 02:56:31 PM
For all that Dinanga didn't contribute I thought he was generally okay at holding it up, to be fair. I agree neither are good enough but I thought Hall was dire on Saturday. Dinanga was poor overall during his time here but has now proven he's a very good asset at the level below so in my eyes would be worth bringing back into the full-time environment, especially as he's contracted for next season.

Dinanga is only one year older than Hall, also, so if we're considering improvement and upsides then it would apply to both.

I see potential in Hall - personally thought his hold up play was quite good on Monday and he setup Dan Mooney's goal by doing just that. I can see he's trying to move up a level so we shouldn't pass judgement too quickly.
Title: Re: Notts County Match Thread
Post by: Toff Apple on May 06, 2022, 04:24:08 PM
Yes I see the point, to be fair my observations about hold up were mostly for the first half where I thought he was excellent, not sure about the second half, the whole experience was soporific and passed me by

Is this what's behind the cryptic stag do comment above?
I would have thought he was injured but there's been no mention of it anywhere has there?

Ok cheers for the update. I’m surprised he has gone on holiday towards the end of the season.

I expect that won’t be an option once we go FT.

Hope this doesn't mean he won't be back next year. We'll struggle to find a number ten to adequately replace him.
Does seem strange otherwise to me to allow this to happen though.

I book my holidays only a few weeks in advance, but some do it way ahead......also season unnecessarily extended this year by 5 weeks......he may have even moved it from the previous year, use it or lose it etc.........hence I will give him the benefit of the doubt on this occasion

Post by: Saughall Robin on May 07, 2022, 02:49:36 PM
No Kosylo, no Colclough, no Hancock and three centre backs. Pringle starts. Looks like a defensive set up. We can't play like that effectively can we? Fear the worst and would snatch your hand off for a draw!

Cracking day out. Train over from Manchester full of Alty then some top notch pubs between train station and ground. We were well beaten as I expected but great craic on the terraces at the end of a momentous week for the club. Just hope Notts don’t go up as it is the best away day in the division IMHO.

Good for you mate. Wish I was young enough and single enough to do those away days again!
Still got great memories of away days at netherfield, ashington, goole etc.

PS. Not in the same ball park as meadow Lane though 😉

PPS. White Hart Lane, anfield, goodison, turf moor and millmoor were highlights though 😉

Agree there SBL, shame, we seem to have fizzled out last few games with safety assured and a few injuries to boot.

Yes. The 60 points mark may be a step too far but a victory on Sunday would take us to 57 and 13th wouldn't it?

With 5 games to go I predicted a 7-point return, and we've picked up 4 of those with a winnable home game to come.

As it happens I now reckon we'll finish 14th on 55, which works well in my little old head (exactly 1.25pts per game).
