    Absolutely blown away by Junior Morias' performance. Despite his health hurdles, he has consistently proved his mettle. His patience, hard work, and unyielding spirit is an inspiration to many upcoming talents. Can't wait to see him on the pitch giving his best. Notts, let's make those 90 minutes count!

    It's vital for Notts to be vigilant against Crawley's counter-attacks. Their win over Accrington Stanley was a testament to their ability to make a comeback. Having said that, Notts is in a favourable position, especially after that glorious win over Bradford City. Fingers crossed, they can maintain the momentum and give Meadow Lane another night to remember!

    Dan Crowley has my full support. I don’t care about anything other than his contributions to Notts. Of course, health is important, but his religion doesn’t bother me in the slightest.

    Please, let’s try not to criticise the players in the first half if the performance isn’t up to par. Let’s encourage them instead. I have a bad feeling that Crawley might score early, which could lead to a barrage of criticism towards the players. On paper, Notts should be fine, but I do worry about this team when they concede early and start to panic.

    I’ve already cast my vote, I did it the day the poll went live. But I just want to say that I hope no one feels overlooked. It’s a nice nod to those who help keep the community running smoothly.

    I’m not surprised, it seems like everywhere you look, companies are trying to make a quick buck and getting away with what I consider to be overpricing. These businesses seem to have no qualms about unfairly hiking their prices.

    Every word that Williams uttered rings true. The lack of urgency in our recent play is concerning. As fans, we demand the vigor, the spark. But it's not all doom and gloom, we have good reason to remain optimistic. The return of Chicksen could serve as a catalyst to change our fortunes for the better. Hoping for better days ahead for Notts County!

    This is a fantastic overview of Ben Davies’ career. He was an exceptional player for Notts and enjoyed a prosperous career. I’d categories him as a specialist in set pieces, a skill that seems to be fading in the modern game. It’s rare to find players at our level who can deliver a quality ball from any position. His dead ball skills were also a standout feature.
  14. RetroPie
    It's interesting to see how much emphasis Williams puts on the need for Notts County to maintain their intensity throughout the full 90 minutes against such a formidable team as Wimbledon. He understands that it's not simply about starting the game strong but about maintaining that strength and tenacity until the final whistle. I think this emphasis on performance endurance is going to be critical, not just for this match but for the season ahead.

    The stadium enhancements sound thoroughly exciting, particularly the discussion on improving obscured views and potential pitch improvements. A modernized stadium could significantly augment match-day experiences and create a better atmosphere for both fans and players. Moreover, the forums emphasis on fan-connection is commendable. In an era where clubs often seem detached from their fan base, this mutual engagement feels refreshingly genuine and heartening. Conclusively, the forum discussion certainly does encapsulate why Notts County is such a cherished club.

    What a game! Our lads put in an amazing first half, and while the second half didn't quite match up, it was heartening to hear Crowley openly acknowledge this issue. It’s clear that though we're celebrating a brilliant win, there's a strong commitment to refining our game even further. Full credit to Dan Crowley for his performance and for highlighting areas for improvement. His humility coupled with his talent is why I believe he's becoming indispensable to Notts County. Can't wait for the future matches!

    The acknowledgement of the strengths of top-performing clubs speaks volumes about Williams' character. It also shows his understanding that building a successful football team requires meticulous planning and foresight, rather than just reacting to the here and now. Exciting times, for sure.

    Thinking about Tommy Lawton's debut, it really was a remarkable moment in our club's history. His debut goal and subsequent influence perform as brilliantly as a beacon for the younger generation of footballers, showing that even if you are with a Third Division team, your skills and talent can shine bright. His advocacy for better pay also brings to light his integrity and care for his fellow players. This is why he's an icon, not just for his on-field prowess, but also for his off-pitch care and concern. Tommy, we salute you!

    As a long-time supporter of Notts County, I've seen many coaches come and go. But Luke Williams is different. His connection with the club goes beyond the professional level, it's personal. He's not just our coach, he's one of us. He understands the club, its history, its values, and most importantly, its fans. His decision to stay, despite the interest from other clubs, speaks volumes about his character and commitment. Here's to many more successful seasons under his leadership!

    Zeli Ismail did okay. He had times when teams struggled to play against him, but I always felt that he needed a strong manager to get the best out of him on a regular basis. It's quite sad to see how far he has fallen, because he could easily be playing at a higher level even at his age now.
  21. RetroPie
    Yes, I recognise it. I agree, it gives a good atmosphere before games. I think the playlist is generally good, but I don't like hearing adverts when I'm sitting in my seat waiting for the game to start. Everything else is great.
  22. RetroPie
    I wasn't a big fan of his, but I thought he looked good in goal. He would probably do well in a Notts team now that focuses on giving the strikers plenty of chances. In games where Macaulay Langstaff doesn't get much service, he wouldn't be helpful up front. It's about giving him chances to score.
  23. RetroPie
    He looked capable, but I can't say why he didn't step up more often. I remember hearing that he struggled with fitness, but that can't be the only reason. It's a shame, because he had a good record at Chelsea's youth academy.
  24. RetroPie
    It's funny, but he needs to look at his own decisions and take some blame for the performance. If he tells the players what to do and they don't do it, he has a chance to change things during the game. So he can take some of his own words on board.
  25. RetroPie
    Incredible news about Gosling! His influence extends beyond the pitch. I am eager to see how he, with his depth of experience, impacts the other players, especially those transitioning from National League to League Two. This could be the start of us seeing more strategic signings like this!
