I've been at work tonight, and had a decent football chat with one of the fitters, who has been watching Notts County for 50 odd years, does some scouting, and knows the game inside out..
Been chatting and comparing the teams we have seen, and what we reckon.
His opinion has been that the Blades have been far and away the best team he has seen this season. He rated their performance at Bramall Lane as one of the best away performances they have turned in this year, but didn't win because we was a lot better side. At Meadow Lane he said we was a joy to watch despite Notts getting beaten, as in his words, you don't get many teams who get the ball down and play good football in this Division, and our brand of football is amongst the best he has seen in the last few years.
Asked him about the other clubs, and he didn't see what the fuss was about with Charlton as they was very average against Notts, he thought Huddersfield looked poor and tossed away a 2 goal lead at their place, and he said that Sheffield Wednesday are nothing but a physical bully boy team, who bully their way to points rather than playing any sort of football.
Asking him our remaining fixtures he thought that Leyton Orient would be a tough one, and Stevenage would be a physical team and hard to break down, and didn't rate MK Dons, and thinks we should get something at Exeter.
On the play-offs, if Notts get in to the play offs, the one team they don't want to play is us, as in this division we are the team he rates, but anyone else they would stand a chance against.
It's nice to hear a lot of positive stuff said about us, although one thing i will never really agree with him on is Warnock.
