    Dan Crowley is an exceptional addition to the Notts team. He’s gaining momentum and looks set to reach double figures in goals by the end of the season. The club made a brilliant signing with him.

    I wish he had supported his local club, Mansfield Town.

    The news about Colin Murphy’s passing is indeed dreadful. The tributes that have been paid to him are heartening to see, although it’s regrettable that he is no longer with us.

    Hello, glad to see a new member. Welcome @Benji!

    Williams' strategic approach to the game is setting new standards at Notts. The insistence on playing attractive, attacking football demonstrates not just his understanding of the game, but his belief in our players. Moreover, recognising the importance of teamwork and cohesion among players speaks volumes about his ability as a leader. It’s a great time to be a Notts fan.

    I hope Reading overcomes their issues soon. It's really not good to see them struggling. They need to find solutions and get back on track.

    It is difficult to say definitively that Eusebio was better than Pele or Maradona, as all three players were incredibly talented and successful in their own right. However, I would argue that Eusebio was better than Pele because of his impressive achievements. Eusebio became the first non-white footballer to win the European Footballer of the Year award in 1965 and the first African-born player to shine in a World Cup. On the other hand, it is difficult to compare Eusebio with Maradona as they played in different eras and their styles of play were quite different. Maradona was known for his incredible dribbling ability and creativity on the ball, while Eusebio was known for his speed, power, and clinical finishing. What is certain is that all three players left an indelible mark on the game of football and will be remembered as some of the greatest players of all time.

    I feel sorry for Neal Bishop. He has the ability to be a good manager, but it clearly hasn’t worked out for him this time. Whatever the reason for his departure, he should continue his journey and I wish him all the best in his future endeavours.

    It’s great to know that Notts will be featured on Sky. I will make sure to record the game.

    I have faith in Luke Williams’ decisions, although I do believe that Adam Chicksen deserves more playing time. However, Will Randall might be a more attacking option. In these games, you can’t afford to be too defensive - attack is often the best form of defence.

    It is disappointing to see that Luke Williams missed out on the League Two Manager of the Month award, which went to Graham Alexander instead. It seems like a bit of an injustice, considering how well Williams has got the squad performing. However, I hope that the so-called curse hits MK Dons, and I am sure that Williams won’t be too bothered or disappointed by the outcome.

    Good luck with the fundraising. It is an essential endeavour, and I hope that many Notts fans will support PON in covering the site’s fees. I will certainly look into it.

    Luke's pragmatic approach to the season is refreshing to see. Keeping their feet on the ground, despite being at the top of the league, shows a realistic and mature perspective that will surely be beneficial in the long run. Talking about focus on performance and continuous improvement sends a great message to the team and us supporters.

    Crowley's adept adaptability has affected the Magpies’ performance positively. His astute understanding of the game, coupled with his talent, has ensured that he’s a perfect fit within the squad. It boils down to his ability to take on the tactical advice from his coaches and incorporate it into his gameplay. Genuine credit to Notts County’s coaching staff for nurturing such a talent and guiding the team to success.
  17. RetroPie
    It sounds like MK Dons are missing one or two of their regular players. I have no idea if that will be of any benefit, but I think it’s safe to say both teams will have depth, even on their bench. I am hoping Notts give a steady performance; I will be at the game. I am hoping to see many more Notts fans in good spirits on the day.

    Everything about what Luke Williams says, I appreciate. He’s giving Macaulay Langstaff confidence here. A manager’s backing can be one of the biggest things for a striker. We know he has goals in him; we know he works hard. Luke is sending out a positive message and hopefully any doubters will pay attention to his wise words.

    Ruben Rodrigues needs more than a handful of games to be judged; it’s early days. Both their manager and Ruben will be trying to figure out how to make the biggest impact. It’s a long season, so they just need to give him more time and back him just as Notts fans did.
  20. RetroPie
    It should be a good move, I think. They need a goal scorer and he’s a player who needs a fresh challenge. If this happens at Fleetwood, he may go on to do well with Peterborough or end up elsewhere.

    Rest in Peace, Ian Hamilton. ????

    I raise a glass to this! Top of the league after the weekend too, fingers crossed. ????????

    Craig Westcarr played for them on loan before he came to Meadow Lane.

    Good luck to Tyrell Waite; it should be a great signing for Ilkeston Town. I hope he has a successful season and continues to develop by returning there. If I were in his position at this stage, I would remain with them and strive to become a club legend.

    Truly happy to see such a glorious triumph for Notts. The game was pretty tense at the start, with Accrington flashing the ball a couple times and Notts showing slight signs of discomfort. However, our boys showed real grit and answered back loud and clear. Langstaff's brace was the cherry on top, they simply couldn’t match his calibre! It was also pleasing to see how the team, under the guidance of Williams, adjusted their game plan to counter every move by Accrington. The tactical adaptability our lads showed was truly remarkable. Lingering on the top spot on the league table caps our superb run in the game. Truly proud to be a Magpie!
