    Notts seems more than ready for the upcoming season. The comments by team’s captain, Kyle Cameron, suggest that they are approaching the season with not just a lot of optimism but also with a realistic understanding of the challenges they'll face in the League Two. I see this as a great combination reflecting both their dreams and their conscientious preparation. However, not everything may follow the script. So, it’s essential to keep the morale high even if we face any hiccups on the journey. I fully back the team to rise to the occasion and make us, the fans, proud.

    Hello, welcome to the PON site @David Shipston.

    It’s clear that Williams’ tactics are working wonders, particularly when you consider how well the team performed against Forest. I can’t wait to see more of this tactical brilliance throughout the season!

    It’s great to have the squad photo released. The club should always find time to do these and share them with the fans.

    The game wasn’t bad by any stretch of the imagination. I think Notts worked the ball well and looked quite good on the ball. I wish Cedwyn Scott had a bit better service to him, but Shrewsbury defended well. They looked just as inconsistent as us in other areas, but I do think Notts looked the better team. A draw was a fair result in my opinion.

    Good interview, a bit miffed with the fatigued injuries, but it is a good thing they are being carefully watched. Prevention of injuries is important, and it’s a bit concerning that Will Randall keeps picking them up, but it could just be Williams protecting the players ahead of the season.

    Yes, I would think loan deals for the pair would help them gain experience and prepare them for first-team football. There’s zero point in having them on the bench.

    Very impressed by the in-depth introspection Williams has done for the team's preparation. Fatigue injuries might seem minor right now, but they could escalate if not reined in timely, shedding light on this issue is definitely the right move. Will Randall's repeated injuries could be a trend we don't want often, here's hoping the medical team figures it out soon. In addition to physical preparation, Williams' focus on strong player relationships and maintaining a supportive environment is equally noteworthy. This holistic strategy for mentoring the team and fostering a team spirit screams of a well-rounded approach to management. I'm keenly awaiting our boys to represent Notts in League Two.

    Williams' mixed feelings resonate with a significant number of us fans. It's clear that improvement is necessary, especially when considering that they need to assert themselves in the league season, but we need to remain patient. It's important to allow time for Williams and the team to adjust, find their feet and improve collectively. Pre-season games are meant to be platforms to build up the team's confidence and iron out any flaws, not just to win.

    Welcome to Notts, Ollie Tipton. I am glad that we have secured his services for the season. He sounds ideal, especially if we are hit with injuries or fitness concerns. He will give Luke Williams plenty to think about.

    The performance of Notts was one of determination, but I wouldn’t criticise Alfreton too much. We are two levels above them and played direct football against the best of the National League, which other teams in the same league struggled with. Alfreton have made a fair few signings, so I would take more note of how Notts played.
  12. RetroPie
    Andy Dallas should be more than ideal for Barnsley. People said that Kyle Wootton wouldn’t be able to cut it in League Two, but although it took him some time, he eventually shone. I feel it will be the same for Dallas. You don’t get spotted by Rangers if you don’t have something special. He has enjoyed his time in the National League, and I hope he does well in League One with Barnsley.

    It seems like a sensible move for the young player. He probably had other offers, but felt that he would develop more with this club. I wish him all the best.

    Welcome to the Pride of Nottingham site, to each of you.

    Hello, welcome to the Pride of Nottingham site @JustLikeJuve.

    Welcome to the PON site, @George L. Get stuck in when you can.

    The signing of Tipton is a much-needed boost to our defence. His academy performances and leadership roles all point to a young man ready to step up and contribute significantly at this new stage in his career. It's promising to see that he is confident in his theatricality, as well as being comfortable on the ball. His hope to start attacks showcases his proactive mindset. Let's hope his transition to Notts County is smooth and that it's a symbiotic relationship - we support his personal development and he propels us towards our goals for this season.

    The appointment now gives the club plenty of opportunity to bring Joe Palmer up to speed. It’s a position that can be covered by others, and I’m sure this has been the case. The Reedtz will be glad to have someone with experience to help them continue the club’s forward momentum. I don’t think Joe has much to do at first. Getting to grips with the staff and his own role right now is more than enough.

    It’s a strange thing to happen, one that I’m still struggling to understand.
  20. RetroPie
    I wonder why the club didn’t make the change when the numbers were first announced. I think that’s the story here.

    Hello, welcome to PON and the community @NewarkMagpie.

    Great to see the lads rewarded for their dominant performance. The match wasn't a thriller but we looked comfortable on the ball, and Scott's winning goal reminded me why I can't wait for the new season to officially start.
  24. RetroPie
    It’s good to see a positive change that reflects an incident which Notts experienced. Usually, these types of events don’t receive the punishment they deserve.
  25. RetroPie
    As for Joss Labadie stepping down, he must feel confident about making the switch. Perhaps it’s so he can settle at the peak of his career? Good luck to him.
