Nuneaton v County: Match Thread (12/11/2016)

agreed jimbo. i could see amis' energy and physicality being useful as an impact sub. also agreed on minihan. he always looks like a full back playing wide midfield when he does that, whereas i think you get more out of him in both directions at full back. only seen us take one point from six down there so far, although it was great to be behind the goal when rule thumped that one in last season.

they're doing pretty poorly this time round so i would hope we could nick a win and would be disappointed if we didn't take at least a point away with us.

just need to show some fight. i'll be cross if we go down not with a bang but with a wimple.

After losing to Kidderminster it's important to get back to winning ways. This is a very winnable game. I'll go for a 2-0 county win. Big Kay to start and score both goals.

I'm as fickle as the next man, and am worried for the game on Saturday. Two defeats on the spin......
