Another visit to Meadow Lane to see Notts County today, and whilst I don't profess to know a lot about football, and even less about County I will say Notts certainly seem to be improving under Keith Curle.
Sacking previous manager Martin Allen wasn't a popular move, nor was it one that the clubs form suggested was necessary, it was surprising to say the least. But now a month later it seems to have been an inspired decision. Many where bemused when Curle was named as manager, he certainly wasn't the obvious choice to improve on what Allen had started.
But, from the games I have seen County are improving each week. Better football, more desire, and actually becoming entertaining to watch. Under Curle County were unbeaten before hosting fallen giants Sheffield Wednesday today. Both teams played well and where evenly matched throughout. Early in the second half Wednesdays share of the pressure paid off with a couple of goals. County continued to play well and got one back but a second was always out of reach. Despite today's loss I think Notts are certainly an improvement on what they where before Curle's arrival.
We generally only go to the football courtesy of Roberts mate who keeps winning tickets, his mum informed us today that he has won two more sets of tickets and for us to pick which games we want to see.
Thoughts go out to Fabrice Muamba the Bolton player who collapsed today on the pitch and is now critically ill in hospital, just goes to show that heart problems can happen to any of us!
Hope your still reading and have not fallen asleep yet unlike me who has fallen asleep writing this.... Day 6 at work tomorrow and I'm more than ready for my rest days.
