  1. Always love hearing Matt's thoughts. His play-off memories are iconic, and you can tell how much it means to him!

  3. I love seeing the Faces of PON. My family enjoys having their photo taken, and it's nice to look back. I've grown up through many of them, so I can see the change. Great job, @Chris!
  4. I’m disappointed by the outcome. I thought Notts looked good, but the defending for the goal was poor. I wish the players would continue until fouls are given and make sure we don’t allow teams to have easy chances, offside or not.
  5. I think the changes show that we don’t have many options to turn games around. It’s fine if we are in control or winning. We really missed Jodi Jones yesterday, even though Kellan Gordon did well.
  6. One thing in common with whoever gets voted, I feel, is that they will have been relied upon too much to try to influence the game, without more involvement from the team to do something a bit different. I think Kellan Gordon deserved the Man of the Match.

  8. It's the stuff of dreams. You'd never expect them to do well, but credit to them.
  9. I think some fans undervalue him because he comes in and out of the squad, but he's happy being a squad member and works hard. In his natural position, he's great, and even when he's not in it, you can't fault his performance. He's relentless in trying to influence the game, even if he's outmuscled or pushed around. He still keeps going.
  10. 55 Edwards Way is currently undergoing repairs but has a Scandinavian theme throughout the modern-style home. There is plenty of garden space for keen gardeners or those who enjoy running.

  12. Notts really needs to start winning home games again, but this is a tough match where we might need to be patient. I think it's winnable, every game is, but we need a top performance from the whole squad.
  13. He has the right attitude. Notts needs to push forward, and I believe we can with the players putting in hard work.
  14. There’s an issue with loaning players; we need them to be at good clubs, at a high level, and where they will actually play. Notts usually has the same clubs where the platform isn’t as strong. Some players might end up at the likes of Boston, but we should be looking at the National League, just below us.
  15. Every manager is learning, gaining experience, and trying to improve on the job. It helps Stuart Maynard that the board is giving him a platform to succeed. Their support last season was unlike many other clubs, and it was great to see because I think it’s helped us push on this season. Defensively, you could see improvements even when he first arrived, and with the new defenders, it’s gotten even better. He has a good squad, but he’s getting the most out of it. I like how he’s open to rotating players and doesn’t overplay anyone when it’s not needed. Some managers have favourite players or won’t drop the big earners, but Maynard has taken control of the squad. It was tough for him last season because most players were Luke Williams' signings. I’m sure they tried for Maynard, but he couldn’t change much and needed them to buy into his vision. He’s improving, and you can see it in how we play. We’re much more consistent and better overall. Credit goes to Williams and the managers before him for building the foundation, but Maynard is doing wonders in his own way.
  16. I can’t wait for tomorrow to be over. A free weekend, then back to another long week. I haven’t done much except school and homework, trying to catch up.
  17. Most clubs do well based on the wealth of the area they’re in. Oxford is a wealthy area, but their club has only benefited from being a good team to watch in the last decade or so. Now, they’re attracting more supporters, and I imagine that helps bring in sponsors, wealthy fans, and makes the club appealing to rich owners.
  18. He’s a quality keeper, and we’re much better with his all-round game and excellent skills. Alex Bass could be our keeper for many years, and it’s hard to imagine anyone else competing with him at this level or the next.
  19. Well done to Jodi Jones, it was well deserved. Mistakes happen, but whoever gets voted for clearly deserves it.
  20. Kangaroos can be dangerous, but what about wallabies? They look harmless, but I’m curious if they can kick. I wonder how they got here. They were probably released by someone, but it seems strange.
  21. welcome to pon, its good to be welcoming you @Jackie May.
  22. What does Grandmaster mean? Are there different levels here? Well done, @Countyman, it’s great to see the community coming together to celebrate.
  23. It was a very long journey, but I’m glad I could go, even though it was a school night. The 2-0 win was really good. I slept on the way home and dreamed about the goals we scored. Jatta’s first goal was really classy, the way he controlled it and finished.
  24. Yeah, my dad has the 150th anniversary white shirt. It’s a very simple design and could have looked better if it was more retro. I’m not a fan of shirts made just to make money, it’s not the right way to treat your supporters. If you’re going to do a special shirt, it should be good quality and up to the mark. I don’t mind Notts having the away shirt, but I don’t understand why the club sold the purple one as a limited edition and didn’t give season ticket holders a chance to get one before it went on general sale.
  25. I hope we can keep up our form. It would be great to get back to winning ways at Meadow Lane, but Port Vale are one of the strongest teams we’ve faced. We’ll need everyone to give their best to get a result.
