Stuart Maynard Calls for Collective Effort as Notts County Faces Colchester United
It’ll be great to see Dan Crowley back soon. His creativity is key for us moving forward.

New Member Ranks, Achievements and Badges
The badges are a fantastic way to keep members active and involved. It's like adding achievements in a game.

Return of the seven.
Consistency is key. Balancing returning players with fitness could make all the difference. I think Maynard will manage it well, though.

Stuart Maynard: Notts County Must Be Ready for Tough FA Cup Challenge Against Peterborough United
Maynard’s got the team focused, and that’s what matters most. Notts just has to be prepared and concentrate on the game throughout, it will be a good test.

A Team Selection Conundrum For Maynard in January.
I think if we sign players in January, the squad could look a bit different. Bass, Macari, Platt, Bedeau, Abbott, Palmer, Crowley, Jones, and Tsaroulla make a great team to support Jatta or a new striker. I still hope we give Cedwyn Scott a chance to play in his natural position. Both Scott and Scott Robertson could easily fit into the first team, but they also make the bench stronger.

Leicester City appoint Van Nistelrooy
I don’t understand the appointment. Why choose someone inexperienced when you need points to avoid relegation? Am I missing something, or is he actually a good manager?

Can Notts Get Promotion in 2025?
I think December will be the time when we either keep going strong or drop out of the top spots, but that’s okay. I’d be happy with 2nd or 3rd place! ???? I believe we can do it; the squad isn’t too bad, but we are a bit short in the wide areas, and having another striker would give us options when we need to mix things up. Even though we’ve lost players like Macaulay Langstaff, I still think we are doing well, and I don’t believe things would be much different if we still had him.

Steve Cooper sacked
BBC East Midlands mentioned two other managers as the front runners, with Graham Potter ruled out. He’s one of those managers who will be linked to every job until he gets one.

Who knew about the red / green tests at the opticians?
I haven't had any eye tests yet, but I’m still quite young. I don’t think I have any problems, but I would get a test if I thought I did. I think it’s easier to notice if your vision isn’t right compared to your hearing or other parts of your body.

Notts County Academy Watch.
The youth team and B squad have some good players, and I think they will benefit from playing with some of the senior players.

Childhood food memories
Most meals from when I was younger were made with noodles, rice, and pasta. There’s some Italian influence in my family, so I’ve had my fair share of spaghetti. I really love jacket potatoes; I prefer simpler food.

"I want to play every minute"- David McGoldrick.
He’s a great player, definitely someone we rely on for those important matches. I think we’ve managed him better this season, but I believe he’s more effective in attacking positions than as a striker. However, he does both roles well. I’m sure he’s eager to continue his career, so unless things change, he should get plenty more playing time.

Arriving on BlueSky and update on PON socials
My parents don’t want me using social media. I have accounts on Facebook, but Twitter and Instagram are off-limits. BlueSky would probably be the same, but it’s nice to see the site expanding. Fans should appreciate this, as I heard that Notts have turned it down.

San Marino
Their fortunes seem to be changing. I hope they can keep this form going, as it would be nice to see a nation like San Marino having more luck on the pitch. I watched a film about an American manager taking charge of a nation near New Zealand that had never won, and you tend to root for teams like that.

Winter matches do you enjoy them?
Do you enjoy winter football? The cold can be quite harsh when it's really bad, but there’s something exciting about playing from November to January, especially with Christmas around the corner. I wonder if this will affect our home attendance, so I’d like you to share your thoughts and feelings on this.

Social influencer starts game on Argentina's top flight
I haven't read the article, but how did he get registered if it was a league or cup match during the season? It all seems a bit ridiculous, to be honest.

Who is your Man of the match v Crewe?
I thought Nick Tsaroulla was the best part of our performance yesterday. He played well and gave us an edge in a game that just didn't go our way.

Match Discussion: Game 15 - The Rovers (A)
Credit to the players for putting in a strong performance and for all the minutes they played. I believe that changes to our side could have tilted the game more in Doncaster's favour. I can also see why Stuart Maynard chose not to bring on Dan Crowley. We need to balance our thoughts and consider the impact of the injuries. I think we deserved all three points, but it’s also fair that we held on for the draw, especially since Doncaster pushed hard for a second goal after scoring. Before they did, I thought we were just minutes away from getting a second ourselves, which would have won us the match. However, they broke well after winning the ball.
