Jaros 4 Decision making all wrong for the halifax goal. Should have been more decisive in coming for the ball. Chicksen 6 Comfortable in possession, though wish he could get to the by line more Cameron 6 Missed a crucial chance when seemed easier to score Brindley 7 Reading the game much better now. Some strong runs Richardson 6 Better 1st half, we just seem to miss going down the right second half Francis 6 Looks better alongside Palmer. Needed more positivity going forward Palmer 6 Tidy but the unlocking pass just wasnt there Rodrigues 6 Some good movement but sometimes no one was making the run needed Roberts 6 Again better 1s…

Notts were poor in the second half against Grimsby. We didn't deserve anything from the game and that's the way it panned out. The last time Notts actually put together a decent performance for the entire game was at home to Wrexham. Being honest, if that continues, we won't make the playoffs. Barnet at home is a chance to put things right. It's a must win game for so many reasons. Anything other than a win would be a disaster. I'll go for 2-1 to Notts. I expect a response from the team. It's time they stood up and took responsibility.

Jaros 6 a quiet day at the office, nothing he could do re the goal conceded Richardson 6.5 Much improved into getting into attacking positions. Defensively sound too Chicksen 7 Good performance getting down the left side Cameron 7.5 Captain on and off the field (latter for the wrong reasons). Nearly cost a goal immediarely after half time. Peach of a pass to Eli Brindley 6.5 Only real criticism is his choosing the wrong option Palmer 6.5 Tik Tok, metronome Francis 6 Some very good, some slack passing too Roberts 7 Peach of a goal Ruben 6.5 Ability to win the ball upfield very noticeable Sam 8 Bible reading...shots of power reca…

Forgot to post this, last week https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omar_Sowunmi Always a stand out player, when at Yeovil v Notts https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byron_Webster Former Millwall stalwart https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Bush_(English_footballer) Journeyman tag maybe, but was superb against Notts

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Érico_Sousa Best player on the pitch https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michee_Efete

Jaros 6 great penalty save, the real problem is in front of him Brindley 5.5 Some good runs first half and a good block too. Caught out by a poor square pass too. Whole defence went missing in the 2nd half Lacey 5 Lucky to escape a red. Ability to influence passes from the back limited Cameron 5 Never a penalty... again our organisation at the back at fault on dead balls Taylor 5 better 1st half. final ball not there Richardson 5 effectiveness decreasing week on week. Palmer 5 unable to influence game Brunt 4 needs to take the ball and make things happen. It didnt happen Ruben 4.5 Looked to have taken a knock. Missed a good header c…

Real question whether 2 Bromley players were offside after Cheek's flick on. Cameron's marking of Cheek, not particularly good in this instance

Slocombe 5.5 Some good saves but another set piece where the opposition scores Brindley 6.5 Another strong performance Lacey 6 Not quite the distribution needed. Cameron 6 Tried to push forward Taylor 6 Checks too many times but helps out defensively Richardson 6 Space limited to run into Palmer 6 Kept dropping deeper in trying to make things happen Brunt 5.5 Too slow in build ups, doesnt help his game Ruben 6 Fantastic first 25 mins, struck a post...faded Roberts 5.5 denied the space Wootton 5.5 Marked out of the game
