Match Talk

I am too angry to give my own ratings this evening

Game 2 - The Wood (A) Team: Boreham Wood Date: 13/08/2022 Where: Meadow Park What line-up should Luke Williams opt for? What will be the key areas for the Magpies to get a victory? What do you think the final score will be? Have your say below, join in with the Pride of Nottingham match discussion.

Slocombe 4 An uncomfortable afternoon with his kicking. I am certain we are looking to strengthen here. Brindley 6 A willingness to break with the ball Baldwin 5 A Jekyll and Hyde performance when compared to last weekend Cameron 5.5 Some good forward movement Taylor 6 Steady Chicksen 6 I just wish he would go down the line more. One stupendous ball across to Langstaff Francis 5.5 Losing the impetus from his performance last weekend JOB 5.5 Pressing game Ruben 7 A class above, cooly taken penalty Austin 4.5 Some nice runs where he was spotted with a pass. Langstaff 5 Didnt run for him today. That missed chance from Chickse…

top corner....where the spiders live and the owls sleep

Game 1 - The Magpies (H) Team: Maidenhead United Date: 06/08/2022 Where: Meadow Lane What line-up should Luke Williams opt for? What will be the key areas for the Magpies to get a victory?

Slocombe 6 Some good catching under pressure but footballing skills give me the colly wobbles at times Brindley 7 Some good forward runs Baldwin 7.5 Looks a great replacement for Lacey Cameron 7 Good work on left side Taylor 8.5 Goal of the season already? Surely not Chicksen 7 Reliable JOB 7.5 Some lovely lay offs Francis 8.5 Unsung hero but getting a deserved spot in this team. Austin 7.5 Lovely ball across for the 2nd Ruben 8.5 The ability to win the ball, turn his man and thread the pass exquisite. Premier League class. Nearly scored with a rocket of a free kick Langstaff 8.5 Someone that can finish!

Grimsby's winner was off side

Play-off eliminator - The Mariners (H) Team: Grimsby Town Date: 23/05/2022 Where: Fortress Meadow Lane Monday night is the big night! So it's time it had its own thread How do you think we'll do? What team should we put out? And have you got your tickets yet? I've already reserved a place in my armchair I'm feeling encouraged by our strong home form. Grimsby are on an unbeaten run away from home, but over the season as a whole they were only the ninth best away team with 30 points from 22 games. They also appeared to lose some momentum once their play-off place was secure. But the play-offs are completely different to league games, …

Slocombe 4 Brindley 4 Lacey 5 Cameron 5 Richardson 4 Stupid free kick to concede Chicksen 5.5 Palmer 5 JOB 4 Ruben 5.5 Wootton 4 Cal n/a Subs Sam 5 Francis 4 Brunt 3.5 No words says it all. No guts in defence when it mattered, always someone else's responsibility. Too soft, no midfield warrior, attack thread bare without Ruben and Cal

Been watching this game and several of the other play off games..... Is it my imagination???? Because I've seen more head tennis in these games than I've seen at Meadow Lane all season.... Anyone else noticed this???
