I see Notts are playing potential champions Surrey starting next Thursday.....iam predicting a much improved performance and a win...Notts need maximum points to avoid a possible relegation.....

@gtownjohnno Notts certainly need some signings for next season. The one day side needs to be completely rebuilt.
