I watched highlights .........
.... of the Notts County-Accrington Stanley match at the weekend.
The 3-2 defeat flattered Stanley, 3 down after 36 minutes, the home side had several chances to extend the lead, two injury time goals gave the scoreline a respectable look.
The Lancashire club have yet to keep a clean sheet in the league and have conceded 3 in each of their last 2. The Accrington public have not really been inspired by Division 2 football and attendances have been disappointing.
Found two classic quotes on the main supporters forum, which show the extent of their ambition for this season......... "one place above the drop, is still the Champions League to us" and my particular favourite, "we need to be the best of the crap".
Tonight they host unbeaten Wrexham, who have had a difficult schedule and are the only side to have defeated Swindon. That win coming at the weekend, Sir Alex's son, Darren Ferguson returned to the side and played a key role, in a match where they "out shot" the league leaders 14-7.
Since beimg released from the shackles of administration, the club have really "kicked on" and there is a great feeling of optimism at the Racecourse Ground. Victory tonight, which boss Dennis Smith, has clearly targeted, would take them up to 6th place with a game in hand.
With a very nice run of winnable fixtures coming up and Cardiff and Swansea going so well, they will be keen to keep the Red Dragon flying high. I really do not see them losing tonight, so think the level ball quote is something to get stuck into.
4 points Wrexham level ball asian line 1.88.
Good Luck.
