    Congratulations to Carlisle United on their promotion. Hard luck to Stockport County.

    It’s okay to aim high, but it’s important to be realistic and patient. Truro has no automatic claim to the Football League; they need to earn it through hard work.

    Welcome back, @Nocturnal-Magpie. I hope you’ll find the time to contribute to our community.

    Welcome, @HarryNCFC0. I hope you’ll join in with us from time to time.

    Jake Reeves did well for Notts. Although his time at Meadow Lane was short, I would welcome him back. I don’t think he did much wrong; naturally, he wouldn’t displace Matt Palmer from the starting line-up.

    Good luck to Jimmy Knowles on his move to Boston United! I must admit, I’m surprised he dropped down to that level. It’s a shame that no League Two teams thought to take a gamble on his services. Nevertheless, I’m sure he’ll do great things at Boston United and continue to develop as a player. All the best, Jimmy!

    I agree that Matt Palmer is a cut above the rest and his quality hasn’t been matched by anyone in the National League. I think he’ll continue his form into League Two, where he’ll be a vital asset for the club. No one makes retaining the ball or passing it look as easy as he does.

    Welcome @CountyFan2105! I hope you can find time to share your thoughts with us.

    Well done to Ryan Reynolds for not being put off by silly fans. What he’s doing is a nice gesture and deserves to be respected. Does anyone know if their stands will be built in time for next season?

    The retained list is pretty standard. I’m a little surprised about Frank Vincent, but we can find more consistent players. It would be unfair to keep him on the bench or force him to play out of position. I have no doubt that he and Ed Francis will easily find a new club.

    It’s always tough to watch a player struggle like Ross Fitzsimons has been. I hope he can find a way to recover and get back on track.
  12. B&Wstripes
    I’m not too bothered about the miss, he scored earlier in the game and saved our bacon.

    Welcome back @Fan of Big Tone! It’s great to see you back in the mix, creating new content. The community’s reaction shows that whatever made you leave wasn’t serious. I’m glad you had a rethink. it’s important to take some time for yourself every now and then, but you were definitely missed.

    Although I am not religious, like other Notts fans, I will be praying more come Sunday. The 12:30 kick-off on a Sunday is unusual and I hope it doesn’t distract the players. I am sure they will be fine, but this isn’t just a training game - it could add to an already great season and make it even better! I predict a 2-0 win, but it won’t be plain sailing at all.

    Thank you, @nightOWL, for wishing Notts all the best in Sunday’s playoff game against Boreham Wood.

    Welcome from me to you @Dry Nelson Ray.

    Notts is a football team that has shown better performance when they play in a straightforward and aggressive style that allows them to identify the vulnerabilities of the opposing team. It would be advantageous if they occasionally take long-range shots at the goal while avoiding excessive passing or trying to penetrate the opponent's defence too much. Notts has demonstrated that they can excel when they press for a chance, but if the opposing team decides to park the bus and defend the goal area with several players, it may be easier to attempt a shot from outside the box.
  18. B&Wstripes
    2-2 will be the score I feel, with a replay being forced to play out at Meadow Lane. I think Notts will start off strong, then get pegged back to level terms, only to take the lead again but to lose it near the final minutes of the game.
  19. B&Wstripes
    It sounds promising regarding Cal Roberts. ????
  20. B&Wstripes
    Good to have Joel Taylor signed up.
  21. B&Wstripes
    I feel a settled squad would be best, but I do feel the one swap suggested by @Feral Fox is spot on. Notts needs to be better defensively.
  22. B&Wstripes
    Quite uneventful so far, but I think Kyle Wootton should have just scored.
  23. B&Wstripes
    I do question why the airports remain open myself, they should be closed. I think part of the issue is nobody in the UK political scene has the balls to make such a big decision, it's almost like Boris Johnson wants it to be the last option and making the country force his hands further. Everything that could possible be done to fight this needs to happen quicker.
  24. B&Wstripes
    Notts made it easy for Hartlepool, who did play better for the most part but I think it would have been different if more players had turned up properly.
  25. B&Wstripes
    Take the point but Notts needs to stop wasting attacks focusing on Cal Roberts and Enzio Boldewijn. Cal Roberts played magnificently well. But Notts looked better when Jim O'Brien was sliding those through balls in to feed Kristian Dennis or Kyle Wootton in the first half, it became all lump it to the wing and pass it back.
