Notts County
Saturday’s football game at Highbury Stadium pits together Fleetwood Town and Notts County, the two top-table sides. The Cod Army aim to revive their playoffs hopes and they must be high on confidence following a 2-1 triumph over Gillingham. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Irish forward Ryan Graydon, who has found his goal-scoring touch of late, while all Coughlan, Holgate, and Medley remain in the treatment room.
The Magpies, on the other hand, proved their worth in a 2-1 win over Tranmere. As Notts County have a chance to climb to the automatic promotion berth, we are tempted to bet on the away team. It has to be noted, though, that influential forward and former Sheffield United striker David McGoldrick is rated doubtful for Saturday’s encounter. The opposition back-line should have Gambia forward Alassana Jatta at bay as well.
Highlighted Player (David McGoldrick):
David McGoldrick is an Irish international who was born in Nottingham, England on 29 November, 1987. McGoldrick was eligible to play for both England and Republic of Ireland and he decided to play for the Irish national team. The striker made his Ireland debut on 18 November, 2014, in a 4-1 win over USA and it has to be noted that he provided assists for Robbie Brady and Anthony Pilkington.
McGoldrick began his senior career at Nots County and he played for the likes of Northampton, Bournemouth, Port Vale, Nottingham Forest, Sheffield Wednesday and Coventry City in the past as well. The Irish attacker he joined Ipswich Town on loan until the end of the 2012/2013 campaign and he signed a permanent deal with the club in July 2013.
David McGoldrick scored 14 goals in 31 appearances for the Tractor Boys in the 2013/2014 Championship campaign and that is considered his most successful season. You should have in mind that his Ipswich teammates Daryl Murphy and Stephen Hunt backed David for his first-ever Ireland call-up.
