This is a replacement thread for the other one accidentally deleted by one of my learnèd colleagues, so you'll have to cast your votes again!
After the last game against a team we've never played before, this Saturday sees us playing a team we've faced 56 times before - the oldest professional club in the world, Notts County.
We haven't played them for nearly 17 years though, as this is their third season at National League level and prior to that we actually swapped places with them between Leagues one and two twice (once in each direction!).
They have adapted to life at this level much better than we have (so far) and reached the play-offs in their first two seasons and are clinging on to the last play off place at the moment.
Their last 6 results have been pretty decent with only one defeat (Eastleigh), a couple of draws (Boreham Wood and Bromley) and three wins (Daggers, Solihull and Grimsby).
In 6'2" centre forward, Kyle Wootton, they have a proven goalscorer at this level and so our defence will have to be a bit more on their mettle than against Maidenhead.
Given the seemingly ubiquitous presence of the Congolese soft drink, King Kev is going to have to shuffle the existing pack of players, it would seem. Let's hope he can inspire them to a better performance than the insipid one on Tuesday night.
You know the drill by now, starting XI and predicted result please!
