    @Chris, the Faces of PON is fantastic! It’s such a joy to see the passion of Notts fans captured so beautifully. The recent album from the Accrington Stanley match is particularly striking, showcasing the diversity and unity within our fanbase. Your commitment to this project, despite personal hurdles, speaks volumes about your dedication. It’s not just about the photos; it’s about the memories and the strong sense of community they represent. These images remind us all of the joy and camaraderie at Meadow Lane. Thank you for your unwavering efforts and for giving us a way to cherish these memories. Keep up the amazing work.

    Paul Devlin was a great player. I was disappointed when Notts County let him go, but it was the right decision for Devlin. He found a home at Birmingham City, and I believe his time at Notts County gave him the confidence to further his career. It was always exciting to see his name on the teletext when he scored or when the final scores were updated.

    A fantastic result for Notts County, which showcased their depth and resilience. McGoldrick was the star of the show with two brilliant goals, but it was a team effort. Bass was superb in goal, making several key saves to deny Accrington. Abbott's performance in midfield was a revelation, showing great defensive skills and linking up well with the attack. The Magpies controlled possession and dictated the flow of the game, which made it difficult for Accrington to build momentum. It’s great to see the team performing so well even without some key players.

    Stuart Maynard seems to have built a solid squad with a mix of experienced players and promising new signings. It’s great to see that the club resisted offers for some of our key players, showing real ambition for the season. His comments about team unity and character are spot on. those elements are so important in football, especially when you’re fighting for promotion. I’m looking forward to seeing how Abbott and Brown fit in, especially if they can help us break down stubborn defences.

    That's a good point. I agree that the club is simply informing us of their efforts, and I don't take that for granted. The club is making progress, and I'm sure that if the board thinks it's necessary, they will consider bringing in new players during the next transfer window.

    I hope that Notts plays a similar game to the one against Grimsby Town. A strong start, an early goal, and controlling the game would be ideal. While we might not see many goals, it would be great if Notts takes the lead early on and gains confidence throughout the match. It would also be good to see more of the players who are still settling in.

    It's fantastic that the club is recognising Rotherham United for starting the memory club. This shows how football can unite people.

    I was impressed by the Accrington Stanley fan's insights. They seem confident in their team's young players and management. Their strong defence and set-pieces will be a challenge for Notts County. As a Notts fan, I hope we can exploit their weaknesses and create more scoring chances.

    This is what we need. David McGoldrick can score goals, as we've seen against Swindon Town, and that's why playing players at the right time is important. His form towards the end of last season was mostly due to him being overplayed. He will take his chances now that we use him correctly, and he will play based on his performance.
  11. upthepies
    This was a good match from start to finish. McGoldrick’s contributions were nothing short of magic, that second goal was a masterclass in finishing. The defence deserves a huge amount of credit too, especially in those tense final minutes. It was a complete team effort and a well-deserved victory that keeps our promotion dreams alive.

    Notts had to work late just to write about him in a way that makes it sound exciting and a bit exaggerated. It's not a bad signing, but it’s quite average. I can’t see many teams rushing to sign him, as most of his career has been with smaller non-league teams.
  14. upthepies
    I voted for Dan Crowley. He's been excellent and is showing signs of being a key player consistently.
  15. upthepies
    I hope Notts can win the game. It's a game I feel confident about, but Swindon Town might surprise us. I'll be watching to see if they sign any new players, which could affect the game. I feel Notts are well-prepared and have enough players to start getting results away from home.
  16. upthepies
    It's embarrassing to see a club misspell their own name, but I'm sure other clubs have done it too. The person most likely responsible probably feels just as bad.

    George Abbott's move to Notts County is a fantastic opportunity for him to develop as a player. After spending most of his youth career at Tottenham, he’s now in a position to get regular first-team action. His defensive abilities will be a real asset to our team, helping us solidify our midfield and dictate the pace of play. Abbott's research on our supporters shows his dedication and enthusiasm to join this club. His experience of playing in a similar style at Spurs should mean he can fit in seamlessly with our squad. I’m excited to see him in action and think he can be a key player in helping County achieve success this season.

    George Abbott's move to Notts is a brilliant decision for his career growth. Having spent most of his youth at Tottenham, he now finds himself in a new environment where he can gain valuable first-team experience. His defensive skills will certainly be beneficial to us, helping to strengthen our midfield and control the tempo of the game. Abbott's research into our fan base shows his commitment and excitement to be part of this team. His familiarity with a similar style of play at Spurs means he can hopefully integrate smoothly into our squad. I'm eager to see him in action and believe he can help Notts County achieve great things this season.

    It's excellent news that the bids have been rejected, it gives us fans confidence in keeping a team capable of pushing for a return to League One. Promotion relies on players like Dan Crowley and Jodi Jones, so having them is very important. Both players will be part of the squad against Swindon, and we need to start improving our away form by earning a win on the road. This will lift our confidence and give us fans more reason to cheer at the games.

    Until our promotion season back to the EFL, I hadn’t heard much about Tom Keetley. It’s a shame that such a player isn’t as well-known as the likes of Tommy Lawton and Jackie Sewell. He deserves recognition, and I agree that the Notts Hall of Fame isn’t complete without Keetley’s name in it. Maybe with The Nest, the club will host more fan-related events and make something of the Hall of Fame. I think his career contributions need to be remembered more than his life after football. The sadness of being forgotten doesn’t seem fair.

    Lucas Ness is an outstanding acquisition for Notts County. His versatility across the back three positions is exactly what we need, especially with the current injuries and fitness concerns. His experience in League One and his recognition at Charlton Athletic make him a vital player for our squad. Plus, the long-term nature of his contract shows the club's confidence in his abilities. Welcome aboard, Lucas!

    It's a problem for clubs losing out on sales, but it also shows that the price of kits needs to be fairer. It costs an arm and a leg these days, it's not cheap and every year it seems they creep up. Clubs need to be realistic and make it harder to copy.
  24. upthepies
    Remove Dan Crowley from this squad and things just won't click. Defensively and creatively, I don't think he's easily replaceable. Selling him to MK Dons would be a big blow.
  25. upthepies
    Fleetwood were much better than I imagined yesterday, they might have a point to feel unlucky. Notts did well, but weren't clinical enough in the first half. There were a lot of passes, but little movement. Notts deserved at least a point.
