Be sure not to forget the "i", otherwise it will be you paying. Now, should I remember this for the next time we meet? ???? A swift visit to the ACP, and I'll be sorted.

Weekly Chat Mon 11th - Sun 17th November
Today, I am focusing on getting jobs done which I never have the time to do. At some point I will drag myself out, so I can go see my dad. I haven't managed to do this since our family break, and I really want to catch up. There's not a lot on a Saturday that happens when I am not attending a game. It's all work-related mostly, but today does feel cosy to a point. Did you know, the Royal Mail at times now delivers some Amazon items? They say that people aren't sending letters as much, but that is simply due to the cost. The higher it goes, the fewer people are willing to spend to send a simple letter, and it's the act of a company that isn't able to adapt with the times. I would assume they are wanting to focus on where the most money is available to them, at the exspence of their more affordable options but requires more time from their staff. At some point the price will make stamps defunct, at which point they will have to compete more closely with parcel companies - unless they realise that making stamps actually affordable, and of value, would increase the demand for them. At which point will it be too late? They have recently made the price to print your own stamps online universally the same price. With the only benefit that you can give your letters, parcels to the mail man doing your round (sometimes it's their partner who drives a van). I think reducing paper waste is a good idea, but none of the Royal Mail's actions are focused on this and solely come down to money. Just like companies are now prioritising emails over letters. We still live in a time when physical paper counts for something, and I personally would rather send letters in some instances but sooner, or later it will be a thing of the past.

Trouble Brewing at the PGMOL.
What's the chance that he actually likes Forest? I think it's quite possible. Watching the Sky Sports video, I can see why he said what he did, but doing it on video, and he clearly knew it was being recorded is extremely silly. Still, I don't think his decision was biased against disliking Liverpool. Their fans, etc, seem to be trying to make it about that, but it's not. Virgil van Dyke was offside. Jordan Pickford could have been spoken too, but under the rules he committed no foul despite it being a dangerous challenge.

Jatta called up
Jatta has been a remarkable signing. When we were linked I didn't think it would be true and when we signed him I felt pleasantly surprised by how he fit in. The early signs looked promising, with how he held the ball up, and waved between defenders. He seemed to instantly settle in, and it's great to see how much us Notts fans have taken to him. You can't underestimate that support. I have no concerns about his departure to represent The Gambia. We'll be fine, and he really has earned this. I hope he does well, and manages to secure a place in their team. It's great to have internationals at this level.

Trouble Brewing at the PGMOL.
I heard about this yesterday. Being registered as a Notts fan doesn't really mean much, but I can't see why people can't be professional. The whole thing is stupid, what would the purpose of recording it be? You have to be pretty thick to do it. I have been told he's claiming he was "drunk", he didn't seem very much under the influence Mike Dean should do one too, he'd defend anyone.

Weekly Chat Mon 11th - Sun 17th November
In my view, sending parcels within the United States is significantly more affordable, while Royal Mail seems to be on the brink of collapse due to the price. If only they put as much effort into saving it, as they did mess with their post masters. --- @Fan of Big Tone: It's difficult to talk about your day(s) when you don't feel things are productive, or it's just work related. I wouldn't feel defeated with the lack of replies, because it is good to have something in general we can talk about. Personally, I mean to but end up forgetting. --- Yesterday, a friend took me and @cheeky~k8 up to Wilford Hill cemetery. It was nice to get up there, it's been something I have been meaning to do sooner. Unfortunately, I didn't feel well returning and by 2pm I fell fast asleep. Woke up 7ish, still felt crap and then fell asleep again. I think the coldness is hitting me for six, but I should get used to it. There will always be good and bad days.

Match Discussion: Trophy - The Foxes (H)
I briefly checked the score on Twitter after the final whistle yesterday, and I noticed quite a lot of comments about the performance not being good enough. Like, I thought most fans didn't care about this cup? I personally don't. I know, it was claimed to be the case - so I am not sure why people are bothered. Notts won. Cedwyn Scott found the back of the net. We can focus on bigger things now. The performance doesn't really matter, as we were always very likely to have been out, and I just see the EFL trophy as a waste of time. We have bigger things to focus on, also, why does a player having a subpar game like Riley Reynolds mean he's "not good enough". It was one bloody game for heaven's sake. Plus, I am sure the Leicester team has some good potential within it.

Who is your Man of the match v Doncaster?
I think it's been good to see how closely each player has been voted for. I think George Abbott had a great game. Congratulations, George!

Is The Chosen One In Hot Water?
I can't see his outspoken nature changing or being reigned in, even if he ends up being fined or whatever. He's always saying something controversial, it's partly why I am glad he's not involved in English football. Whilst he can be funny, I just prefer to ignore things related to him.

Who Is Your Notts Player Of The Season So Far?
I was about to point this out, as I feel Jodi's form was bringing the best out of Dan Crowley. There was a period, whereby those two were very dominant in our team, very dangerous having them in our attack, and the injury to Jodi Jones seems to have impacted Crowley slightly - along with his own injury woes. I still feel Dan Crowley has been immense this season, and would be my Player of the Season. At this point, at least. If we spoke about "signings", then Jacob Bedeau has to be up there with one of the best recruited players, but you could throw Matty Platt and Alex Bass into the mix. It's a very interesting, and difficult thing to decide. It should make the Pride of Nottingham awards at the end of the season interesting.

Lest We Forget. (Remembrance Sunday)
We must always recognise the significance, bravery, and sombre nature of Remembrance Sunday. It's time for us to reflect, and appreciate those who fought, fallen and put their lives to defending the freedom of our country. Many aspects of life that once held significance are now increasingly taken for granted by some people today. I remember them, I owe a lot of gratitude, and thanks for how things are now due to them. Lest We Forget.

Who is your Man of the match v Doncaster?
Jevani Brown was our main attacking threat, but he was involved in our defensive side and there were times when he just needed releasing with the ball a bit quicker. I think he played very well, but we were somewhat limited at times with our movement with credit to Doncaster for being more organised. Alex Bass does deserve a shoutout for his efforts, as he kept them at bay and was unlucky to concede the goal they did manage to score. My vote does go to Brown though.

Match Discussion: Game 15 - The Rovers (A)
Last season they were poor, and they've not really signed many players, but they should be more of a threat with Billy Sharp involved. They have several loan players who make things interesting. Teddy Sharman-Lowe is a good keeper; he is gaining further EFL experience with Doncaster having been loaned out by Chelsea previously to smaller teams. He's of good height, and ability. He should be a big improvement over Ian Lawlor, who didn't have his best game against us last time round where we beat them 3-1. I thought Doncaster was actually lucky to score, they were just a team that looked out of sorts and very beatable. Much of their defence is still the same, which was their biggest weakness, but I do think they will be a lot tighter this time round. Whilst I don't expect them to be much of a passing side at the back, I think we should get chances and the game will come down to who takes them. 2-1 (us), 1-1 seems much more likely.

How Do You Rate Your Success On PON?
A topic could be seen by 100β1000 guests over time, with 2β60 members having seen the topic. Only to have one reply, I wouldn't say it failed because sometimes all it takes is a few people to respond to encourage others into sharing their views. There are a few members who try to engage with every post possible, and in a meaningful way. I don't have any focus these days on success, I see things as a way to learn, and I personally just want members to enjoy themselves. That for me is the happiest aspect, as I don't care about the amount of reactions I get to comments (it's nice), but honestly, I would rather see members named within the leaderboard or hitting good amounts of reactions. I think it's more about quality, and togetherness. Don't take my comment about reactions the wrong way; it's just not something I focus on. My success here can only be deemed on effort, leadership and quality. It's something I need to step up, but I know people understand - which is a massive worry off my shoulder.

Cal Roberts.
Unfortunately, his move to Aberdean was his shot of playing at a higher level, and whilst I think he still has the chance to have some time in League Two. It's narrowing down, to which I believe it might just be better and more enjoyable for him to be a part of salvaging Scunthorpe United woes. He's a great player, very exciting to watch and when in form - he's hard to play against. It's great to see him re-find this form, plus earning praise but an element of it comes with being settled. If Scunthorpe can maintain their current form and push to make a return to League Two, then his injury concerns might not cause his career further issues. They know the concerns, will most likely have a familiar feeling to how we did when he was here and view him as irreplaceable. So, it is good to see him doing so well.

So Which Is It?
I refer to our fans, on social media as "Notts fans". Mostly, because it saves characters, and it can read better. I sometimes include Notts County further in the message(s), so I really don't see the fuss. We are Notts, County, Magpies, The Magpies, The Black & White Army, NCFC, Pies etc. Preference is one thing, but it's on par with political correctness and wokeness to take harms over something so trivial. This is when it comes to beyond moaning, and taking to using pitchforks or having a meltdown over it. The world has so many problems, but how we refer to ourselves as fans isn't one - provided it falls within meaning.

Going Back In Time.
Something super useful in regard to PON, would be to solely focus on my efforts and ignore what people say. I wish I had made my own judgement at times, but those are things you learn with wisdom and not everyone who suddenly befriends you has the best interest. I would also encourage myself to start the site sooner, with the same focus as I have now in terms of content.

I Robot
Now, I know why @super_ram is attached to a certain seat and always seems to reset every time he first sits down in it. ???? I think Elon Musk says one thing, and does another. I don't really like his character, or how he goes about things. I wouldn't trust any robot built by him, I am not sure if I would trust any but at the price - I don't think we need to worry all that much.

Football Bloopers
As funny as the goal is, the celebration within the net is hilarious. I also had to double-check that the scorer wasn't Lewis Alessandra. I think the celebrations lasted longer than it did for Midtjylland to gift the goal.
