Great photos @Chris.

Good interview that! I can't help but feel Nolan is playing down the Good links though.

We need to be more ambitious than hoping for the playoffs, the automatics is doable if Notts recruit wisely. Don't get me wrong promotion must be the key, though I don't think we should settle for being standard. Alan Hardy has increased the clubs budget by 10% after signing a non league player we released as a youth. Mansfield fans will be laughing at us right now.

We need a better first team keeper simple as that, it makes sense to let Scott Loach go but I just hope Adam Collin will be exiting also.

I would feel sorry for those that avoided the games last season but decided to support it now, its a stupid competition and it needs scrapping.

I hope we dont come out with relegation talk, even if we win it will be hard to see a club sent down to the conference. I think it will be a nervous game but it wouldn't surprise me if Notts lost or was on the other end of a beating.

Only worthy note from the game @ivansneck. We look unable to create effective chances, all was half and the exception I felt should have gone in was wasted. Not good.

He seems to get more chances than anyone which seems unjust to me. On his day he can be a good player but he does not play to standard we require often enough, him going back to basics just highlights his weaknesses.

I worry heads will sink beyond redemption and that this season will become another long one. If we win Saturday it will help avoid this.

It would be nice in an ideal world but sadly I think they are not strong enough to win silverware this season.

I would hope that we do not go for someone like Paul Hurst. Nobody is asking why Grimsby fans do not like him!! What makes you think we would?

So we have so serial bottlers, did we not know this already before Cooper came? Barnet being so close after Mansfield, I would expect to see much more of a reaction. Mark needs to get the fire inside and remind them that shitty performances will not be accepted. The only way for this to happen is by making examples of those who cost us the goals.

Rubbish, not acceptable. I can't comment right now.

What a shambles! 1-0 up and we end up losing 3-1. The players should do more than watch 90 minutes of games, they should go now.

Its good that he has settled the squad down but after Mansfield, I would hope some dont make it anywhere the starting line up. Give others a chance and see if it pays off.

The game was a write off after they scored so early, I had a feeling that we could be on the end of a whipping. 2-0 down Cooper should have made changes. The formation tweak gave hope but the defending was very poor throughout, lets hope its a relapse but as I said in the PON match report it's a cardinal sin losing 5-0 in a local derby.

Only hope of a silver lining is to extend Coopers deal and for new owners to give us a fresh approach. This is a cardinal sin losing 5, 5-0 in a local derby. Unacceptable by any means.

Notts have been pushovers on and off the most part of the season. Time to put this right tomorrow and go to Mansfield with the only thought of winning.

Loach Hewitt Edwards Hollis Audel Aborah Murray Noble Banton Stead McLeod This would be my lineup and formation.

Top job here guys

Aborah's recall has paved for the way for the current change in mood, along with Coopers appointment. Fullarton said a lot of things, just not at the right time.

We feared Portsmouth would destroy us at home but they did not. The good feel factor must keep going, so I think a draw or sneaky win would be good. The addition of Aborah will be pleasing on the eye come tomorrow night but a lot can happen between then and now.

Bets please! Hope he is sensible and knows what to expect. How long will he last?

@Elite_pie brave attendance prediction. I think we will be looking to scrape past 3,600. The club cannot fiddle the attendances like they used to do.

Surely longer? Notts should just add the word to their name. Poor defeat, its not about losing but the way in which we did.
