    I think most of my profile is filled in. I will check and, as for following members, I have followed quite a few, which I look forward to engaging with.

    He sounds like he has the ability but might need a bit of work with his concentration and self-belief. I think we have the ability to make good use of this signing.

    The opening games for me bring a level of excitement. Sutton will be a good away day for fans who can make it, followed by Tranmere Rovers who seem to be building a decent squad. If we can get the results needed here, it could have a snowball effect on the others after. I am happy with what we have been given.
  4. Nocturnal-Magpie
    It all sounds promising. There seems to be a keeper within Aidan Stone; it’s just a case of getting it out of him.

    The more I read about Dan Crowley, the more I feel we have signed a very good replacement for Ruben Rodrigues. He just sounds quality. I hope he doesn’t disappoint on the pitch but proves himself to be a fan favourite.

    I'm looking forward to my away days this year. There are so many grounds to enjoy and it will be nice to have a proper atmosphere. Nice and friendly fans? I would say Sutton or Harrogate Town fans. Great pubs nearby? Doncaster or Bradford City are decent locations for pubs. Good pies, food, etc.? Grimsby hands down. Easy to get to? Mansfield.

    Interesting comments by Dan Crowley. I think his decision to move shows he’s committed as a player. You don’t step down when expecting children if you’re not sure about the decision. The comments about being his own player are fair; Notts has a habit of pigeonholing people. All those managers said to be the next Jimmy Sirrel, for example.

    I would rather play Cedwyn Scott if someone is going to replace Macaulay Langstaff. We know Scott has goals in him and when he was played, he would prove that. I’m sure Junior Morias is a good player, but the pecking order needs to be prioritised by goals. Scott will also improve, whereas Morias won’t as much.

    Jodi Jones gets my vote. I think they’re all decent signings, but Jodi is the one who is quite easily too good for League Two. He was for the National League and look how he helped Notts there. So I think it’s safe to say that at his age, there’s room for him to come back stronger.
  10. Nocturnal-Magpie
    I agree with @liampie. The council seems to prioritise Forest over Notts, which is not fair. Both clubs should be given equal importance and recognition in the city.

    It's always great to see acts of kindness within the football world. It's too often overshadowed by controversial moments and drama.

    Nice intro, welcome to PON @NottsLoyal.
  13. Nocturnal-Magpie
    I know when players come from a higher-up team’s academy it’s played upon, but I really do feel like this is a marquee signing. It seems like a blueprint for building a team to ensure the quality is there so that Notts is well adapted to life in League Two.
  14. Nocturnal-Magpie
    All indications suggest that this is a major accomplishment for the club. As far as signings go, I am extremely impressed and believe that Dan Crowley has a lot to offer a team like ours.
  15. Nocturnal-Magpie
    A few DVDs of past games and goals would be a suitable addition to a time capsule. Soft toy versions of Mr and Mrs Magpie could also be included. I will leave it to other members to come up with more ideas.
  16. Nocturnal-Magpie
    I would be content if just one defender joined the team. However, based on interviews, it seems that we may have a larger squad this season. Nonetheless, the addition of a versatile centre-back would make me happy.

    Happy belated birthday, @Fan of Big Tone. Your meal sounds like it did the trick for your special day.

    I am not familiar with her story about dementia or how it affected her grandmother. However, any effort to raise awareness and funds for this cause deserves recognition.

    Once I have completed my rounds and checks during my shift, I come in here and browse through discussions that interest me. I read them and then decide whether or not to comment. I do not limit what I look for and simply load a random amount. I usually reply to most of them while continuing with my work. The articles are of a high standard and I enjoy reading them, but it is the discussions that intrigue me the most.
  20. Nocturnal-Magpie
    Jack Grealish is finally receiving the recognition he deserves for his career. He has won a League title, a cup and the Champions League. It is wonderful to see a former Notts lad achieve such success.
  21. Nocturnal-Magpie
    If his injuries weren’t persistent, he would be playing much higher. I’m surprised to see him drop back to the National League North though. He’s way better than that. Scunthorpe has made a very good signing.
  22. Nocturnal-Magpie
    It doesn’t quite feel like a dream, nor does it feel like a honeymoon period where suddenly it’s going to turn to hell. It just feels like the club is back to a level playing field, with smart and sensible decisions. The club has the potential to be a big team all the way up to League One, but mismanagement has caused most of the hardship. It doesn’t feel like we will find any skeletons or earth-shattering news with our current owners. It’s almost perfect. I wouldn’t have it any other way.
  23. Nocturnal-Magpie
    I don’t see the point in signing someone just to loan them out in the hope they will be ready. It’s not beneficial and isn’t fair to the player. I would pass, allow him to find his own path and monitor him. The only exception would be if there’s serious belief he will be ready for first-team football.
  24. Nocturnal-Magpie
    Both managers are victims of their own success. It’s disappointing to see news like this, but to outright sack them after what each achieved respectively is unbelievable. Sheffield Wednesday risks struggling if they make the change. Bournemouth should be okay. They have some good players and just need someone to organise them enough not to leak goals.
  25. Nocturnal-Magpie
    I have been seeing this online. I haven’t seen it yet, but it looks like a good series.
