  1. It looks like we may have navigated our way through the recent form, hopefully, we have because we have it all to play and really if we hold our own - teams will only find us harder. It sounds like a good game from what I've heard, read and see from tweets.
  2. I wouldn't read to much into it, the brother's clearly love football and have been spotted watching many teams since owning us. It's interesting that they've turned up in Italy, but I suspect it's just to watch/ a culture thing.
  3. Yes, people on Twitter thought it were a first team signing despite the transfer window being shut - clearly making it one for the B team. He sounds promising but I hold very limited hopes based on how much we give youngsters a shot to establish themselves.

  5. I had the Spanish inquisition, but as you see, I got two right and one in the correct place. I went with the only word I could think of at the time which turned out to be right. Someone ain't happy. Wordle 857 2/6
  6. It tends to follow other clubs, it's like this 'All Notts Aren't We'. A lot of our chants come from other clubs, but that's football in general. My grandfather used various terms to talk about Notts, but he did call us Maggies.
  7. Honestly, it was a very random guess! The two letters I had made it a bit of a challenge. Wordle 856 3/6
  8. This is awful news, which I am told @super_ram said to my yesterday but I didn't register it then. Very saddening to think only one player from England's winning World Cup team remains. Rest in Peace, Sir Bobby Charlton.
  9. Wordle 855 4/6 Someone not a million miles from me claimed I knew the word, just from seeing a grids of green, yellow and black squares. My first 3 guesses, I thought I were being clever.
  10. I think any other Notts manager might have a bit of a backlash with some of these defeats, yet we need to take account of that we are in a good position and doom/gloom just adds to the spiral that winds up and then brings everything down with it. Some games I think we should write off, Mansfield isn't one of them. The majority of players did put in effort, it was the best attacking football we played and there was noticeable difference in efforts from certain players. My thoughts on future games are that with our support, we can overturn any difficult period - provided the players work hard. Along with Luke Williams encouraging the players, without it being a case of being too critical (from us too) we should pick up. Luke Williams mentioned in his pre-match interview that he felt questions made it seem like we weren't doing well and perhaps were at the other end of League Two. That is the feeling I get from what I read, but really this is what competitive football is like. Our next win will be a major turning point, it will put us back on track and if we can build an undefeated run. Half of this worrying will be forgotten, if the worst happens just remember it took us four years to get out of the National League. Provided we are competing, it should be easier, if we keep this togetherness and talented squad to make it to League One.
  11. I think @CliftonMagpie should start posting them randomly, without warning, and make sure each new round is posted at a different time. I quite like the idea of full on chaos. More than @Fan of Big Tone may end up setting a deck chair within this "Guess Who" forum game. Throw in some bonus points, and it should play out quite nicely.
  12. @Fan of Big Tone You missed the chance to say, "I hope the weather at Gillingham is Sopot. I'll be at Skegness, hopefully better weather will be there. I have seen a few forecasts which suggest that Sunday is going to have thunderstorms. Whatever it's like we'll have fun, so we will see. I will give proper updates as to what we do on Saturday and Sunday. At the moment we are just waiting, everything is pretty much sorted. Taxis are booked, @super_ram will be staying over. Roll on Saturday!
  13. @Fan of Big Tone It's beyond the curse of Manager of the Month. They are just in poor form, but ultimately is further proof of the damage fans can do when they are not seeing the sense. I have read a couple of MK Dons sites, they seem to think they could pluck anyone and suddenly become the best team in League Two. The amount of fans complaining and coming across as very self entitled, it's just weird. Unfortunately, every club has fans like this but MK Dons are very plastic.

  15. You're getting about quite a bit, @Piethagoram. Good for you! I will be interested to see where you end up next. I can say I wasn't expecting you to be in Poland! There are some nice places I have seen from YouTubers of their and Croatia. I watch a person who has been to all the former Russian states.
  16. @super_ram I'm tempted to try to see if I can get you to give it, @Fan of Big Tone. I do like the 'capped by PON' though.
  17. Good luck to him, some fans wanted him to return here, but I honestly think it would take the right League Two team to get the best out of him. I am wishing him success at Forest Green, just not against us.
  18. @Turkey_Twizzler's old username!! Oh, Stanley Aborah. One hell of a midfielder, who was someone we could have built around. Last played for Waterford in 2008, according to Wiki.
  19. Hello, Max. Welcome to the Pride of Nottingham, I apologise for the issues you have faced with registering. I have approved your account manually, I do hope you enjoy being a part of our Notts County community. I'm glad to be welcomeing you to it.
  20. I won't argue, but I'm happy the cap will go to a good home.
  21. You've already donated a fair amount, please accept the hat as a gift from me to you.
  22. @Fan of Big Tone I bought a Notts cap for a prize ages ago, but I never used it. Would you like it? It's the one you can purchase from the club store. I just looked on the official online store, it's neither of those current ones. This is black, with the clubs actual badge on the front. I don't want anything for it, I would happily give it you because it needs a nice home.
  23. It's great, really nice to Jimmy up there, and he did seem to have a good friendship with Cloghie. I don't think the signatures make it look very classy. To me, it sort of distracts from the actual art. In my opinion, incorporating the worn badges from both clubs during the respective eras of their management would greatly enhance the visual appeal. There's something tacky about fake signatures. It reminds me of the replica records in frames that people flog. The artwork itself is absolutely magnificent! Perfect job with it.
  24. He should have stuck with Gateshead, with how MK Dons fans are right now they won't give him long to turn things around and the club needs a few signings to really give them the strength overall needed to push on. They've got a talented squad, but defensively and in midfield they could be a lot better. Good luck to him.
  25. Their form has massively dropped off, yet ours hasn't been that perfect but unlike normally, we have still managed not to lose much ground near the top. Only moving to 2nd, which isn't something that happens for us often. When I look at the tables and recent scores, I have this feeling it will end up as a draw. Either team has the capability to win, I would favour us more, but it depends largely on how we play. If we don't defend well or if the midfield doesn't do their job, then Gillingham won't struggle to create chances. If Gillingham tries to make it hard to use the flanks, we need to be more creative with our passing around the centre of the park, moving and making space - see how it opens without relying on taking it all the way back to the keeper. I believe Aidan Stone will return, it seemed a tactical decision to start Sam Slocombe against Mansfield. A defeat I feel would lead to some unrest and really, I think we need to take whatever outcome happens on the chin. I do hope we see an improved performance, where those who attend feel the players gave everything.
