I’m sure they do. The side is set up to play to their strengths and is successful. I’m sure they’d like to play for a top Premier League team but success at a decent level must feel good.

He was excellent previewing the match on Notts County Talk during the week. Well worth a listen.

The Verdict: Bromley 1-1 Notts County
YouTube video by From Bromley with Love The Verdict: Bromley 1-1 Notts County

🚨THE VERDICT🚨

I deliver the FBWL post-match verdict following Bromley's 1-1 draw with promotion rivals Notts County.

Bromley are now 13 games unbeaten and four points clear at the top of League Two.

Initial contact looked outside and allowed the ball to run away from Jodi but final contact that brought him down was inside. As every recent Notts manager appears to have said at some point, don’t give the referee a decision to make.

Why is is Woodman complaining about the penalty? He clearly tripped Jodi who was past him. Stupid challenge as the ball was lost, but still a foul. Why wasn’t he booked?

Neither did Pato if you listen to his post match. Told by someone at that end of the terrace it was a stone cold penalty. #notts

And he was excellent. Always available, taking pressure off the defence and knocking balls through for Dennis, Jodi & Tom to run at their defenders.

You’ll fit right in

I suspect that it is a regular occurrence when he’s playing and there are many similar examples. I don’t think he’d have done it in the late 80s when Paul Hart was playing centre half for Notts.

Wasn’t that when he was playing for Barnet against Wrexham in the NL?

Don’t forget they’re Danish. Their culture is subtly different.

He played 11 matches before injury so not that early in the season. I’m surprised they didn’t give him chance to recover. Mansfield will obviously be expecting him to be available.

Good for him. He’ll hopefully get some minutes and continue his development. Amazed Wycombe let him go back to Spurs.

If he’s worried about them restarting after breaks in play, it might be a good idea not to tell his keeper to feign injury when they’re under pressure.

Offensively Nemane was better but Gordon helped make us better defensively whilst still offering something in attack. Recruiting our right sided wingback & attacking midfield player from the season we shipped goals has held Milton Keynes back.

25.01.2026 15:29 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

Other than when injured, Gordon has made most match day squads this season and got on the pitch for most. I don’t disagree with the decision to let him go, but feel his contribution has been undervalued. He was a reliable performer and created a couple of goals which was better than many.

In our dreams. At least it would remove cost from our wage bill and allow Cotter to play football again.

Could become a really good transfer window #notts

Browne is several injuries from a place on the bench and will probably not influence of chances of promotion. A decent window but we need a proven attacking midfield player capable of starting for it to become a good one.

The situation has changed since last night with Ndlovu signing. Correcting a mistake last summer, signing the third striker we needed then are positives. Enoru is exciting and offered something different but will only be an impact sub this season.

For most students, it isn’t a loan that will ever be paid off and it would be better not to think of it that way.

I went to Fleetwood one evening during a month working on Blackpool and it appeared to have closed at 18:00.

I thought the referee and assistants had good games yesterday. Maintained control without trying to become the main event. Both disallowed goals looked clear offside to me on the highlights. Didn’t see the red card but it was obvious Norburn was winding them up - as they tried to get at Iorpenda.

Classic Roos wasn’t it, though the defender didn’t help.
