  1. I think it's very easy to get a little carried away, but I think we need to be prepared for a potential bump along the way and if this happens, I think us standing behind the players is vital. Seasons are tough, we're showing great signs and there's everything reason to be excited, but let's enjoy it and try to keep that feel 'good' factor' going. There are a lot of positive signs, which I don't think we would have pulled off last season but again, we got off to a good start then. Injuries and the loss of Luke Williams really took their toll. This said, again, I don't think Notts would have come back to win in such a convincing way if this was the 23-24 season. It's possible a point might have been salvaged, but it's even more likely Bromley would have taken hold of the game and dominated. Two crucial goals for them, at such an early point in the game. This could easily have got under our players skin, but credit to them, they kept focused and showed a spirited performance to get us back into it. I believe Matt Palmer, who has praised the quality we have, his absence was massive, and it's just as much seeing him return. Yet, we have other strong midfielders, all of which offer something different. Jodi Jones sounded like he took it upon himself to light a match under his teammates, combined with a world-class performance (at this level), he really did prove to be the difference. It was great to hear Dan Crowley, pulling off clever passes and marshalling the back - coming away with the ball to release Jodi and other players. Stuart Maynard is showing just as much progress, having the squad we have now, and the quality throughout really must help. So, Robbie Cundy didn't quite perform all that well (from comments I have seen), at least it's not costing us and the gaffer is showing that he's not afraid to make changes. This win will instil a lot of pride within our camp, we need to see the same work levels, and we need to back the players, even when it's difficult. They will fight for results, we need to encourage that.
  2. I would have pitchforks coming for me if I asked this on social media, with people asking why Dan Crowley wasn't listed amongst the runners. I know, with what I said before about David McGoldrick tending to be voted because he scored two and that this might seem exactly the same when I say I would name Jodi Jones. It has nothing to do with his contract renewal, or the fact that he scored twice. It's purely down to his performance, and how he got us back into the game whilst we were still adapting to playing Bromley. He put on an excellent performance, alongside Dan Crowley in the attacking department.
  3. It's called full fat because it retains all of it, whereas semi-skimmed milk is around 1.5 to 1.8. Before plastic bottle caps were coloured, it was easier just to say full fat. In place of whole milk. It might have something to do with marketing, as whole milk is more commonly used in America. Whole milk doesn't taste right to me, I don't like it.
  4. A few weeks ago, it was Forest, and now it’s Mansfield. Ladies, you know what must be done! Good luck. Let's take a Stag home and place it over the fire.
  5. Don't forget, your birthday present was the actual result. I ordered that especially for you, "an amazing 4-2 comeback" just to make your birthday extra special. It's those exciting moments that you remember. ???? I hope you had a brilliant birthday, mate!
  6. @TheSkipper Mark Stallard keeps mentioning the pitch, though he's trying not to go on about it (his words) - it does sound like the pitch is an advantage for them. It sounds like we are sussing it out, but we are getting chances. Conor Grant headed the ball over, just need to keep pushing for that leveller and go on from there.
  7. Jodi JOOOONNNNEEESSSS!! 2-1... What is with our start? Two very early goals, it's quite disappointing, but we can get back into this and something of it.
  8. Hello, welcome to the Pride of Nottingham @Pica. I hope you enjoy being a part of our Notts County community.
  9. I have seen footage on the news, I also know someone who attended and the amount of people who attended - very befitting of Sven's goodbye. The football community was truly united to bid farewell to Sven.
  10. Don Masson was one of my grandfather Ray's favourite players, even @GrannyPie admired him and I can remember how pleased she was to have him as a friend of Facebook. He's a very nice person, I have spoken to him numerous times but obviously his playing days are well before my time of watching Notts. It doesn't take away the brilliance of his magic, as many fans tell me stories which is awesome. I have to admit, I made a mistake sharing this way too earlier than I intended. I don't know what happened, but at least it's done well. ????
  11. He played a former baseball player in one of my favourite family films; he was a great actor. Coming to America, where he plays a king, is a classic. Rest in Peace, King Jaffe Joffer, Mr. Mertle, Terence Mann and legendary James Earl Jones. ❤️
  12. It must have been a very scary experience, not just for you but your family. Even if you don't remember much, I know what it's like when to wake up not remembering anything. Totally different, but I broke my nose as a child riding my friend's bike. I took off and landed in my neighbour's rockery filled with large stones. I don't remember anything, I supposedly was awake, but I only remember waking up in hospital. Enough about me, as I say it's not nice, and I can only imagine how worse it is to be told you had died too. No need to thank me, I didn't really do much, but I am glad you have managed to find yourself back to the site and are able to sign in now. Take good care of yourself and your ticker. Just do take comfort in everyone wishing you well, because we do look out for each other here.
  13. GK Kasper Schmicheal Steve Finnan Mike Edwards Gary Liddle Alan Sheehan Ian Baraclough Phil Turner Paul Devlin Danny Allsopp Lee Hughes Gary McSwegan Formation: 4-3-3 I really wanted to have three strikers, these are all players I have seen play for Notts.
  14. I think realistically, they have always been a mid-table National League team. Their success seemed a bit of an overachievement, but their relegation was them underperforming. I don't think they strengthened themselves all that well compared to other teams and ended up in very poor form. I wonder if their fans have any involvement with this? If they wanted him back, then it would make a bit more sense, but I can't imagine it was easy discussions at first.
  15. I saw Jason Manford at Skegness in one of the bigger arcades with one of his children, before he went off to what I assume were over family members. I didn't bother him, or anything like that. I did see some others approach him and ask for his signature and photo, which he did, but I felt sorry for him because he was clearly having downtime with his family. Not much to the story, other than at times when I upload pictures to Facebook - certain friends tell me I look like him. At least it's better than that Welsh snooker player, Mark Williams.
  16. I loved the original but when it was rebooted with Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer, I really learned to appreciate it. I felt disappointed that the BBC axed it. I think it only made 2 seasons before it was abandoned? The original I have seen numerous times when I was younger at my parents, my childhood is filled with comedies like Porridge, Rising Damp, Are you Being Served? etc. I wasn't aware that Kenneth Cope had passed on. It's very sad news. @super_ram

  18. I once met Jools Holland when I had to hand-deliver him a letter, as he was staying at my workplace. He was playing at the Royal Concert Hall, Nottingham (obvious as I wasn't talking from the Park area to another city). ???? After getting through various people, I handed him the letter and he thanked me. I was about to walk off, when he asked me if I knew who he was. It's a bit strange, as the letter had his name on, and I had been told to only hand it over to him directly. I said, yes. He asked me if I liked his music, he told me to be honest. I told him no, I didn't and that I wasn't sure I knew anyone who did. ???? He laughed, then started playing a piano while he was sat in front. He thanked me again for taking him the letter and told me he liked that I was honest. In hindsight, I probably should have just said Yes and then left it at that, making the excuse that I really had to get back. -- I could also tell of a time when Marco Pierre White went knife to knife with the restaurant's head chef, after exchanging insults to him. ???????? I wasn't involved with this, but watched it all with my own eyes. Pierre White repeatedly returned his meals. A television company was filming something, where two other famous chefs had also been a part of. For some reason, Pierre White started making personal insults to our head chef who blew a casket over it. The production company had to halter filming, when the head chef decided to carve one of his knives into the hot pass. To which, Pierre White started f****** and b***** it. It wasn't full on daggers. ????????????????
  19. It's sad news, but we appreciate being kept in the loop. There are many here, who might not know David personally but will have taken a shine to @AmericanPie. He's missed on the site, but it's even sadder to think that he's extremely unwell. I am thinking positive vibes and hoping that David can at least be comfortable in his situation. Please do let him know we all care and pass on our messages.
  20. Wow.... Breaking news at it's very best. They've been charged, let's get in over and done with If they've broken rules (yes I know they have) it needs to be dealt with appropriately. Not sure, Sky Sports needed to act like it's a big thing, when it's only a slither of news. It's like ordering Oasis tickets, and getting bottles of the Oasis drink in return. Very lacklustre! ????
  21. This is brilliant news, Jodi Jones is a massive player for us. It's great to see that Notts has managed to extend his stay with us; he's by far one of the most popular players and is someone younger fans connect with due to his quality and performances. All these things are very important for a club like ours. I thought he would extend, but I was thinking it would be nearer December or early January. Always believe in, Jodi Jones! ????????
  22. The article has done the rounds around our club, so I hope Tom Reed is pleased by the response. It's a great article, which showcases what it's like at Notts and Meadow Lane. I do find the Terrace Edition to be a very interesting read, as it's got it's own style and focus. Tom did an excellent job putting his thoughts over, hopefully, he will like the comments shared but I do encourage people to check out the site itself, plus their social media pages.

  23. Surely, they undergo thorough checks? I would assume the cricketer knew, so surely it would be a form of cheating? I am not sure how 12 points is a suitable punishment. Cricket is a weird sport, where cheaters don't seem to be held accountable like other sports do. I thought it was considered 'the gentleman's game', with a lot of sportsmanship? It seems lost these days. As someone with zero interest in cricket, I hear and read so many unsporting things.
  24. @Robbie Absolutely, I have seen Aidan Stone working hard in training. He has shared pictures of him working hard, with captions about being ready. I do feel sorry for him, he's been made unwanted and exiled, I would play him ahead of Sam Slocombe when it comes to the bench. I wish the club had a proper reserve team, as for your points - it would help all involved. Friendlies against various teams, even if at a higher level than us, does nothing in comparison to being in a competitive league. It also gives a clearer marker as to where the level of players are, as they are amongst teams similar to their own ability. I don't see Alex Bass being replaced, but having our backup keepers ready and having played games is much better than just training alone.
