  1. I am saddened and a bit disappointed to see Charlie Slater leave his role with BBC Radio Nottingham. He did well covering Notts and one might have thought he would stay a little longer to see where Notts ended up. However, being a family man and eager to advance his career, I don’t blame him and I wish him well.
  2. Hello, welcome to PoN @Michael D P.
  3. Welcome to PoN @BeestonPie.
  4. Thanks to Williams for acknowledging the areas of improvement that the team has to work on. His honesty speaks volumes about his leadership as a manager. The balance between attack and defence is indeed a vital virtue every team should have and it's encouraging to see they're working towards achieving that. Looking forward to seeing their progress in the next few games.
  5. This pre-season friendly against Forest might have ended in defeat, but the lessons learned and the experience gained are immeasurable. There's no doubt about Williams' commitment towards developing the team. The back four formation definitely injected an organised and compact defence, and it shows our coach is flexible enough to switch formations for the benefit of the team. Yes, there were mistakes and some players need more conditioning before they're up to speed, but that's precisely what these friendly matches are for. These matches give us valuable insights into our strengths and weaknesses. Williams clear-sighted approach towards addressing these issues looks promising.
  6. Reading about Tobi's return made me realise how much he brings to the team. His statements about his connection with Aaron and the excitement of being back on the stadium show the level of dedication he has. And the great turnout of fans indicates just how much he’s missed. Here's to more victories with Tobi on field!
  7. I'm willing to give Morias some time to settle in and prove his worth. It's difficult when you come into a team with established players, but I hope he can still make an impact.
  8. It's a magnificent gesture, it's not just about the game, but about unity and community.
  9. I echo @Chris's sentiments entirely. A club's strength isn't just about its performance on the field. It is the fans and their support that truly make a club. We've had our ups and downs, but the fact that the people of Notts are sticking together through thick and thin is heartening to see. It reflects on the sense of community that we've built together.
  10. Comparing Matty Palmer to Don Masson is high praise, indeed. Shows the impact he's had on the team.
  11. From what I have read, he seems like a good signing. People who have played for him say he is very attack-focused, which seems to be a good fit for what we needed.
  12. Kairo Mitchell didn’t work out for us, but he may do well at Rochdale. I don’t think he’s a striker myself, and it’s disappointing that we paid a fee for him. He may do better at his new club.
  13. Welcome to PON, @NottsCountyKev.
  14. I would like a younger, faster Connell Rawlinson. Someone who isn’t afraid to get hurt or defend by putting their body on the line.
  15. It’s a strange departure, one I didn’t expect to see and I wish Neal Ardley all the best. If he’s taking time away from management, fair enough. If he’s moving to a new club, I would feel sorry for Solihull Moors who may have got some compensation for it.
  16. I also use Chrome because it’s the standard for every device it seems. I don’t bother messing around - if I can use it, it will do.
  17. Fixtures are a standard thing for some fans to complain about, but real supporters will just get on with the season. I suppose it depends on the level of complaint - some may be valid and fall outside of what I am referring to. However, those that come across as nit picky are what I am writing about.
  18. I wouldn’t mind a throwback to our 2017/18 season away kit, with that lovely patterned blue shirt. That one really stood out to me and I absolutely loved it.
  19. Dan Crowley received my vote; I’m hopeful he will be as enjoyable to watch as Ruben Rodrigues was, if not more so.
  20. He sounds like a young up-and-coming keeper who could do well here. It’s a position that will only do well with what’s in front of him and I think as a free transfer we can’t worry if he doesn’t turn out to be any good. We know Tiernan Brooks can step up, so it benefits everyone.
  21. Hello and welcome to you, @NottsLoyal. Good on you for getting involved, I hope you enjoy PON.
  22. Welcome to Notts County, Aidan Stone! I hope you settle in quickly and showcase your abilities on the pitch. We're excited to have you as part of our team.
  23. I can imagine him still being the first person into the club for training and wanting to put in overtime that some younger professionals neglect to think about. He’s a steady player who has worked well and continues to impress. I see no reason why he won’t have a successful season for us. Age is but a number and Jim O’Brien seems superhuman at times. Does anyone remember that nasty gash on his leg? He just got up and walked off like it was just a little bruise.
  24. Players come and go; provided they leave behind some form of legacy and memory, they will have contributed to the club. It’s a shame in one way that we didn’t get promoted sooner, as he may have stuck around, but who knows for sure? The moment we went up could have been the moment he left. I wonder if he would have still decided to leave had Notts not won the playoffs?
  25. Good; Jim getting a one-year deal is the very least we could offer. He’s a true hero of Notts and has done nothing but good things.
