  1. A proud moment for everyone at Notts County FC Academy. Congratulations!
  2. A commendable gesture by Stoke City that goes beyond just the game of football. It shows us that football isn't just about competition, it's about respect, unity and standing up for each other when needed. We as fans, truly appreciate such acts of kindness and hope to see more such gestures in the future.
  3. Kindled mixed feelings honestly. The home kit design seems a bit off, rather unconventional with the stripes. However, the away kit makes up for it, there's something modern yet so charming about the plain design and the colour. It looks fresh and very likeable.
  4. Best wishes to him, now it's confirmed. I am glad he's not leaving Notts for good, has he has a lot of potential.
  5. The Stoke City match will be a great opportunity to test the team’s resilience. No points or titles on the line, just pure football.
  6. It's wonderful to see a manager who not only identifies and appreciates the contributions of the more experienced players but also praises the young ones. A balanced team is a successful team.
  7. I had hoped for a back that wasn’t entirely white, but the teaser seems to show that it will be. I think it might have a bit too much white for my liking; stripes never look good on a lot of white. They look better when they’re equal or slightly different.
  8. Yes, I hope it’s a loan deal. It could be a good thing if so, but if it’s a permanent signing, it would be sad to see such a young prospect go.
  9. I don’t understand the complaints. It’s just a slight bit of red, and there have been numerous times when sponsors have had it. Nobody complained when the British Heart Foundation had their patch on our shirts.
  10. I’m hoping Luke Williams brings in a centre-back. If he can double up as a left wing-back, that would suit us. I know we have Richard Brindley, but he’s better out wide for me.
  11. I am happy with the fixtures. I don’t do many away games these days, but there are many that appeal to me. So, I cannot fault or moan. I understand that some fans might not fancy certain games due to the date etc., but that’s a given.
  12. My favourite signing so far is the return of David McGoldrick. I think his homecoming will be something that inspires the squad, and along with his ability and experience, will be useful in our first season back in the EFL.
  13. Tom Weal is a good judge of ability and I’m sure he will have looked at this keeper and helped the board, along with Luke Williams, to make a decision. As a backup, he might only play cup games and the odd match, so he’ll have to take whatever time comes his way.
  14. He sounds like a superb addition to the squad. I’ve been impressed again with the summer recruitment and I think Dan Crowley is the type of player who will impress all fans, both young and old like myself.
  15. It seems 2 years is the standard deal. I wonder if that’s because the board wants to review where we are when it comes to that point in time? I do wish Notts would offer earlier contracts and get players on board sooner. We leave so many until the end of the season and I don’t think all will be able to be persuaded. You just have to sell the club and its ambitions to them. If they want to play higher, they will go but we shouldn’t make it easy.
  16. The brothers will have a CEO in mind, I bet. The appointment will hopefully come before much of the planning for next season needs to commence though. We need everything to be smooth to keep this positive progression going. I’m sure it will.
  17. The Reedtz run the club how it needs to be handled; the staff and coaching know their roles and it’s been wonderful having them. I think by the time they decide to sell up, we will be far better off than how they found us, far better and I would hope they don’t because it’s nice to think just how good we have it right now.
  18. Members come and go; they come back but provided PON is still here, that is the main thing. The site will evolve further and lose some of the furniture.
  19. The Neil Warnock times were exciting, much like now under Luke Williams. Warnock had a good rapport with Notts fans; it was a sad day when we got rid of him. Nice feature on Tony Wood.
  20. Over the years, Notts has had some very good international players. Jodi Jones opting to play for Malta through his family is a nice way for him to pay respect to them. I wish him well.
  21. I don’t know, I’m worried that only Kyle Cameron will sign. I wonder if Jim O’Brien will have thought he could retire and spend more time with his family. He is a great player and a leader, but maybe he feels he has done enough for the club. I hope he stays but I respect his decision either way.
  22. Good to have David McGoldrick back home, I hope he does well and manages to help the club secure a top half finish. It feels like the club is on the verge of something special again, we just need a few more quality players to add depth. He is a legend but he is not here to rest on his laurels, he is here to work hard and score goals.
  23. Great to be greeting you to the site, welcome and have fun @Sirrels County.
  24. Brilliant signing, now let’s secure some more players.
  25. I can’t say I remember him, but a lot of clubs are looking at the Non-League as a means to pick up cheap signings that might otherwise cost them more money. I forget where I read it, but someone was saying that it was an untapped market. It was Leigh Curtis on his Derby web chat. Very untapped, when every club and their fans look to the league for options.
