  1. What amazing scenes they were! It was truly an incredible experience to be a part of something like that. To see the club finally return all of the support that the fans have been giving them through all of their struggles over the seasons was truly special. This journey has been one for the books, and the ending was nothing short of magnificent. And now, it's even more exciting to think about what's to come. With League Two up next, who knows what kind of success the team might find there? There's a whole lot of potential for this club yet, and I can't wait to see what happens next!
  2. While I may not particularly enjoy seeing them in the Premier League, I can definitely deal with it. Any fans who believe that it automatically makes them superior are likely more entitled than anything else. Being a team that's always near to the bottom of the league isn't exactly the most fun, but for me, my focus is solely on Notts County. I actually think that Nottingham Forest could try to network with our club and improve their relationship with us. It's interesting to remember how Forest fans used to complain about the Reedtz brothers attending their games, though I'm certainly not that bad!
  3. It’s great to see Luke Williams taking the time to speak and promote Notts to young and impressionable supporters. I’m surprised they didn’t invite Kyle Cameron to join him and add more to the segment. Even though he wasn’t available, they could have waited for him.
  4. Welcome to the community! The Pride of Nottingham is a great site for discussing Notts County. @CountyFan2105
  5. The retained list is almost not worth discussing because all I can say is that I wish the three departing players all the best. Archie Mair has a bright future and I hope all the players sign new deals with the club.
  6. I think the players deserve some downtime. I won’t dwell on Ruben’s drink handling - he’s just having fun and it’s innocent. He just needed to sleep it off.
  7. Charlie Slater and Mark Stallard make a good duo. I hope there’s less mixing them up in the future and more moments like this!
  8. I don’t see Macaulay Langstaff going anywhere yet. Clubs may be scouting him, but I hope that doesn’t put pressure on him. He just needs to play his game and not worry about his future - he’s in control of that.
  9. Ryan Reynolds has been nothing short of praiseworthy since buying Wrexham. I’m sure he doesn’t want any applause for doing it, but the fact that he wished Notts County well is extra special. The fact that he’s rooting for us and hoping we go up says a lot about him as a person.
  10. While the playoff uncovered video was fantastic, it would be great to see more effort put into the PiesPlayer next season. There is definitely demand for video content, but it would be nice if not everything ended up on YouTube for free. The club could ensure that teasers are released while reserving the best bits for subscribers to watch.
  11. Many happy returns, Chris. Wishing you all the very best.
  12. It’s not impossible to imagine Notts achieving back-to-back promotions. The question is, how will the club cope and manage life in League One? It’s a much tougher league and we would likely need to bring in many more reinforcements if we were to push for the Championship. League One could be where we start to sell players for higher fees than we paid for them. This would allow the club to spend money, but it comes at the cost of establishing a settled squad. I’m not sure if Notts can replicate Luton’s achievement. We have moved between divisions and I’m uncertain if I would prefer to see us build steadily like Brentford, Bournemouth, Watford and other clubs have done.
  13. I thought Aaron Nemane had a superb game against Chesterfield. The way he dinked the ball past their players and still managed to beat them was magical to see. I wish Adam Chicksen had played his more direct game, but something seems to be going on with him. Perhaps it’s a lack of confidence or just fatigue from the long season he’s played. Nonetheless, keeping Nemane must be a top priority for Notts. We need his pace out wide in League Two.
  14. Promotion is more important than performance, but Notts didn’t put in a terrible display. A lot of it can be attributed to nerves and not adjusting quickly enough to Chesterfield’s fast attacks. They pushed Notts and the defenders couldn’t find much space. Good teams in League Two will find ways to close us down, so it’s clear that we need to focus on this area. I thought Archie Mair’s saves were superb for a young keeper. He kept his cool and did remarkably well. Seeing the celebrations unfold on the pitch brought back happy memories of the 90s. It was great to see the players finally relax and laugh it off.
  15. Jim O'Brien's goal against Scunthorpe United was a standout moment this season. It's not just because I like him as a player, but purely because of the quality of the goal itself. If it weren't for that, I would have voted for him as Player of the Season too. He has consistently delivered outstanding performances and has been a key player for the team.
  16. The whole team has been outstanding this season and so many of the players could easily win Player of the Season. In a different year, it might have been any one of them. But this time, there can only be one answer. The team has worked together to achieve great success and it's a testament to their hard work and dedication.
  17. I'm surprised that more fans haven't voted for Aldershot as the Away Game of the Season. It was a great match and a memorable experience for those who were able to attend.
  18. Welcome to Pride of Nottingham, we're glad to have you as a new member of the fan site!
  19. This should be a runaway poll in favour of Macaulay Langstaff as the Signing of the Season. His goals and teamwork have been outstanding and he’s been a true hitman up front. He’s brought so much to the team and it’s been a pleasure to watch him play.
  20. I’m casting my vote based on the quality of the member’s posts. I appreciate someone who enjoys sharing their thoughts and contributing to the PON arena with insightful and thought-provoking content.
  21. Notts County has a long-standing tradition of nurturing and developing talented football players. Some notable examples include Wes Morgan, David McGoldrick, and Jermaine Pennant, all of whom got their start at Notts. Mark Draper and Tommy Johnson are also players who honed their skills at the club. In recent years, we've seen a new generation of promising young players emerge, such as Dongda He, Jack Bearne, Kion Etete, and Kole Lambert. It's unfortunate that some of these talented players were allowed to leave the club before reaching their full potential.
  22. Over the years, Notts County has been home to some truly great players, such as Phil Turner, Mark Stallard, and Ben Davies. Jim O’Brien is another player who deserves to be mentioned in the same breath as these legends. However, when it comes to pure talent and class on the field, I believe that Lee Hughes stands out as one of the best strikers Notts has ever had. He remains one of my all-time favorite players.
  23. While Boreham Wood may have had a relatively average performance throughout the season and have relied on luck at times, they have consistently shown that they are a force to be reckoned with during the playoffs. Despite this, I believe that we shouldn’t be overly concerned about facing them.
  24. What about Don Masson? Could it be him?
  25. Jim is a truly classy player. Despite his comments about being referred to as ‘experienced’, he remains one of the most motivational players Notts has. He deserves nothing but respect for his contributions to the team.
