  1. Welcome @Sir Magpie, you will find PON a good place to chat Notts.
  2. By the week, there are plenty of new members joining. Welcome to PON @NorthPie. Do join in from time to time.
  3. Integrating into a different style of football and in a new role is not a small task, yet Brindley has managed to do both with remarkable ease. His spirit and adaptability are admirable and crucial for Notts County’s progression. This just goes to show that when player commitment meets constructive coaching, success is more achievable.
  4. Glad that Williams is taking a pragmatic approach, recognising the good moves yet addressing the pitfalls. We need to up our concentration game and cut back on unnecessary fouls. The potential is there, just some refining needed. Keep the faith, folks!
  5. In full support of @TheSkipper's insights. Learning from this match and working on key issues such as creating and converting clear goal-scoring opportunities should be our prime focus moving forward. Every bit of progress matters!
  6. Cameron’s comments about the team’s excitement to get back into league football and face better opposition are also very promising. It shows that the team is motivated and eager to take on new challenges, which bodes well for their performance in League Two.
  7. It’s great to head into the season having won our remaining friendlies. While the performance may not matter as much, winning does breed confidence. After the matches against Stoke and Forest, some players may have doubts creeping into their minds. Luke Williams will know which squad to field, but it would be nice to see some of the younger players given a chance.
  8. Ryan Fallowfield should really reconsider elbowing players. With the prevalence of video recording these days, it’s not wise to engage in unsportsmanlike behaviour. The FA made the right decision in this case.
  9. I appreciate Langstaff's words in his interviews, it gives us fans a great insight into how things are run at the club. Despite the pressure and intense scrutiny that comes with being in his position, he still manages to effectively communicate his plans to us. Can't wait to see how this strategy translates on the field!
  10. Reading about the bond between the fans, players and staff just reaffirms why I love this club so much. Can't wait to see them back in action against Stoke City!
  11. What interests me most about this title race is the level of competitiveness and unpredictability. It's refreshing to see that, unlike many top tier leagues where the outcome becomes somewhat predictable, the National League still evokes that passion and nerve-wracking uncertainty which make for thrilling football.
  12. Good on Stoke City for stepping up here. They've started a precedent where football, often stained with controversy and scandal, can be a platform for goodness and unity. In this critical period, their actions will hopefully inspire other clubs to do the same. Not to say that we should overlook the competitive aspect of football, that's what makes our sport exhilarating. But there are moments outside the 90 minutes of a game that can have a more profound impact. Stoke City has exhibited just that, and for this, they deserve all our respect.
  13. This is just great; it’s nice to see fans looking forward to a new season. I hope Paul and Evan have a great time watching Notts, and as for Kimbo, her mother will be with her. I agree with the mention of Alice; she was a good egg within the club. It’s a shame she left.
  14. I hope he manages to impress and find a club within the EFL within a few seasons. I can’t see Dagenham & Redbridge being promoted any time soon. I think they will struggle to make the playoffs, but who knows if they keep building.
  15. It’s not the end of the world. The principal sponsor is the name for the company that sponsors the area above a player’s name, correct? It’s not even on the front of the shirt, so what’s the big deal?
  16. I believe Leroy Lita played for both Notts and Nuneaton.
  17. Aaron Nemane's agreement to a new two-year contract with Notts is undoubtedly a moment of great pride and excitement. His skillset, including his speed and close control on the field, sets him apart and makes him a challenging opponent to face. Keeping him on our side is a strategic and commendable move by the management.
  18. Teams such as Newcastle and Juventus have proved that black and white kits can be truly spectacular. These teams have created stunning kits that combine traditional colours with modern designs. By taking their lead, we could create something equally amazing for our home kit. By experimenting with different patterns, materials, and styles, we could create a black and white home kit that is both visually stunning and representative of our team’s identity.
  19. I don’t know what to make of the signing, but I feel that everyone deserves a fair chance. It might not be as exciting as others, yet we are starting to establish a means to get the best out of players. I welcome Aidan Stone to Notts and wish him all the best.
  20. It’s a promising signing; reserve keepers tend to be good enough to fill in and that’s that. He’s 23, so he has room to develop further and will have time to become a regular starter. I don’t see it as being a knock on Brooks; I hope it pushes him to do better than Aidan Stone.
  21. I think he might be a surprise package for us this season. From what I’ve seen and heard, he has a real burst of pace and can create something out of nothing. It’s always exciting to have a player like that on the team. He just needs to be given the opportunity to play and show what he can do. With enough game time, I’m sure he’ll be able to make a real impact and help us achieve our goals this season.
  22. Knowing that Maddison and Jones were best mates at Coventry makes my heart smile. It's important for players to have support systems like this in the industry.
