PHONE the Uni and ask.
They may be still expecting you to retake the GCSE in June.

it’s notingham dyu think it’s worth resisting again and seeing but it’s risky cus if i get a 5 for the 3rd time ill loose that place and may have no uni as gcse results are a week after a level results so my other option which is southampton would most likely be full. also dyu think there’s a chance notts could let me off with the 5 or no. rhanks for ur time

That might make a better firm choice with notts (or another university) as insurance - you'd have a better idea of your position before the GCSE results get published.

Southampton can't be "full" in the sense that if they're your insurance and you achieve AAB, and Nottingham reject you for not getting a 6 in maths, then Southampton must take you.
