3 individual errors sadly but you can't see Torquay winning all their games so all to play for.

For the second time this season Notts score a stoppage time winner against us. The initiative now shifts to Torquay.
Playing against ten men isn't easy, and after the sending-off we found it hard to penetrate their defensive shell. But a draw would still have been a satisfactory result. What you don't want to do in that situation is give the opposition an opportunity from a set piece. The penalty followed a free kick out wide and close to the halfway line which we didn't deal with.
We did well earlier to equalise twice, Tanto's belter surely a goal of the season contender. But somewhere along the line we've incurred a Magpie's curse and it came back to strike us again at the death.

Certainly the most disappointed I’ve been this season. We should have at the very least got hold of the ball and kept it after they went to 10, it looked the other way round. A great chance thrown away. 2 wins gifted to Notts County in injury time, no idea what Easty was thinking at the end. Suggests tired minds and bodies. I was so so frustrated watching. Why didn’t we freshen up with subs earlier, baffled as the players looked out on their feet?! If Davis was fit, which presumably was, it was crying out for him!
We now look like we are heading for the play offs but 2 back to back home wins again should keep us interested.

Could have been so different if the Ref had seen Omar pulled over in the penalty area. On such things matches turn.

We were far too open and defensively not great. Too many crosses coming in far too easily and our performance summed up by the penalty. Yes it could be tiredness For me now it’s Torques too loose. because they don’t look like loosing. Having said all that we are still not quite out of it with one game in hand. Tantos goal is a goal of the season contender.

Could also have been so different if Louis John's header had not been straight at the goalkeeper.
Like others I cannot understand why we kept going long when Notts were down to 10 men and they were playing some neat short passes. They attacked as a team whereas we seem to prefer to attack as individuals (almost exclusively Tanto). David never really got going and that was not Harry's finest performance today. Wilson has to feed off scraps which is a shame as he obviously has talent. Once again Omar was immense but he needs more help as he is always the long ball target man as well as trying to be Wilson's supply line.

If we don't win the League, it won't be because we didn't get a point tonight. It'll be, most likely, because Torquay won't bloody lose. But I do hope that we'll continue to compete over the last games, even if we are litl ol Sutton. I didn't think too much of it at the time but I do hope the lacklustre home performance vs Torquay doesn't prove to be decisive. Not the game against Torquay. It’s the failure to win at Borehamwood, Solihull and Halifax. We did not get enough points from those games.
