Jack's attitude is exactly what we want to see in our young players. He knows the value of senior influence, which is massive for his development, and he’s clearly absorbing every bit of advice from Palmer and McGoldrick. His comments about the fans at Meadow Lane really stand out too, it’s good to know our energy helps the team push through tough matches.

Colchester’s defensive form is impressive, and it’s going to take a lot to break them down. Maynard’s focus on resilience and staying united shows he understands what’s needed. Injuries have hurt us, but it’s great to hear positive updates on Platt, Abbott, and Crowley. Managing minutes carefully is smart, we can’t afford further setbacks. This game is massive for getting back on track in the league. The team has shown flashes of brilliance, and with the right approach, we can create chances. Fans have been brilliant all season, and the atmosphere at Meadow Lane could give us that edge.

The update to the member ranks and badges system is very good to see. Not only do they invigorate the current member base, but they also set an enticing standard for newcomers. By recognising efforts with ranks like legend and hall of fame, it not only honours those frequently engaged, but also inspires others to reach similar heights.

Happy Birthday, Shaun. It was ambitious when you arrived as the manager and I wish you all the best with your career. It's good to know Notts didn't dampen it.

I agree, it would be between two of the names mentioned in the voting, and I have gone for the one who delivered much of the fight to keep Notts within a slight glimmer of salvaging a draw, which is David McGoldrick.

Congratulations to him. George Abbott has put together some excellent performances during November.

Hard luck to the youth team. A 0-4 defeat might feel disappointing for them, but no doubt they will have earned praise from many fans who have been watching them regularly. Some of them might be the future of the club, so that will be their focus now. They should know we are proud of them for just drawing an academy like Fulham's.

I don't get why we never gave him a chance, even when we were blessed with the options we had. It's like how we could do with Adam Chicksen, with the injury to Jodi and the lack of options out wide. I would have thought it would be easier to allow players to leave permanently than to loan them out while still contributing to their wages. Neither, I feel, will feature for Notts again, despite feeling like Junior Morias could contribute with goals. Chicksen isn't consistent enough, but always tried.

I don't have a good feeling myself, not because I don't believe Notts will play well. I just feel like Walsall might sneak a win, possibly late in the game. The fans who attend need to show the lads that we have their backs and create the right atmosphere. It will encourage them and show the right support. I am hoping to hear news of Dan Crowley, although I might be tempted to suggest we save him for Colchester if he is close to making his return.

Christ! What is Leicester City thinking! A lot of crap appointments are being made in football right now, it really is uninspiring and concerning. You might as well place your money on them to be relegated now.

The FA Cup really does bring something special, doesn’t it? Stuart Maynard's remarks about dreaming of playing a Premier League team at home capture the excitement perfectly. Peterborough will be a challenging opponent, especially with their pace, but it’s reassuring to see how focused the team is. The updates on injuries are a boost too! It's good to hear that players like Jodi Jones are making progress. Practising penalties is a smart move; you never know when that’ll come in handy. Fingers crossed we get a result and make it to the third round.

Facing Peterborough is a great test for us to see how we stack up against a solid League One side. Their attack is strong, so our backline will have to be sharper than ever, especially in dealing with any set-pieces. We’ve shown resilience in games this season, and if we can control the midfield, we’ve got a good chance. It’ll also depend on whether we’re clinical upfront, can’t afford to waste chances against a team like this. Let’s see if we can cause an upset.

Hello, welcome to the Pride of Nottingham @Jon Lowe! Take time to get used to the site.

It’s great for celebrating milestones within the community, whether it’s recognising long-term members or highlighting new faces who’ve joined. What’s the current plan for these? Are they going to be weekly or monthly? And will members have a chance to contribute content? I think this is just what we need to keep the community spirit alive and thriving. Thanks for putting the effort into this, it’s much appreciated!
