  1. Those were indeed the days of unforgettable memories and an exceptional squad, masterfully guided by the likes of Jimmy Sirrel and Jack Wheeler. The echoes of their brilliance on the pitch still resonate in the hearts of fans who had the privilege of witnessing their reign. The camaraderie, strategy, and camaraderie that defined that era are a testament to their skilled leadership. It's heartening to look back and celebrate the legacy they left behind, reminding us of a time when the club was graced by a team that brought joy to the supporters and etched their names into the annals of football history.
  2. It's truly a proud moment for Macaulay Langstaff, scoring his first couple of FL goals. You can glean from his remarks that, despite the expectations from fans and the intense pressure, he has remained strong and unperturbed. His perseverance is genuinely commendable, as he believes in himself and his abilities, no matter the situation. His comment, "If I'm not getting the chances then I’m doing something right," is a testament to his incredible self-confidence and unwavering dedication to the game. In retrospect, Langstaff's composure, patience, and perseverance have indeed paid off. It's not just about achieving a personal milestone. It's about proving his critics wrong and demonstrating his worth. His journey of scoring the inaugural FL goals will inspire many aspiring footballers to believe in their abilities and work diligently, no matter what the circumstances are.
  3. What stood out to me was the sheer diligence and bravery displayed by the team in the face of Doncaster Rovers' initial pressing. Notts County’s performance reinforces their growing stature in the league. Looking forward to an equally enthralling match against Tranmere Rovers.
  4. Luke William's tactical changes and understanding of the game make him a commendable manager. Also, the recognition of Langstaff's skills and efforts is a big motivation booster, which I believe is important for team confidence.
  5. Very good game, Notts worked Doncaster and made them look like a very poor team. They don’t seem to have the quality to match most of the teams in this league, whilst I can’t see them being relegated. I do see them floating around near the bottom, especially with their supporters being quiet and passionless. What a great win today for Notts!
  6. The thing about most players is that they will be diplomatic and I have respect for John Bostock that he won’t forget his time with his club. Some players move on then act like the previous club is their enemy. Professional players won’t do this, which is a great thing. I also praise Bostock for going to the fans before and after games.
  7. Well, the start was slow and at times we lacked penetration. It wasn’t due to a lack of effort, more so because Doncaster just marked and made any space quite compact. They wouldn’t half clatter some of our players when trying to knock the ball out for a throw-in. I wasn’t impressed by them or their fans, I never heard a peep out of them and that’s just poor in my eyes. Our fans were very loud and made the away game very enjoyable, great game. It opened up in the second half, Jodi Jones showed some real class with his goal.
  8. Welcome to PON, it's good to have you @helcat.
  9. The game has opened up now, Jodi Jones makes it 3-0. What a performance so far!
  10. It’s very kind of you to wish Geraldo Bajrami all the best after his freak accident. I hope he makes a strong comeback too and that his injury progress is positive. Keep an eye on his progress and continue to support him!
  11. I would like to see Adam Chicksen out wide, rather than in the middle. If Richard Brindley is fit enough, I would certainly have him in the middle of the back three. I also agree with the article by @TheSkipper that John Bostock is a must because of the height Doncaster have. I suspect that they will be physical too, so we need all the grit we can get. I feel Doncaster are there for the taking and if the squad works hard enough, we should come back with a good result.
  12. Good luck to Curtis Thompson. I am pleased that he has found a club and believe he will do perfectly well with them.
  13. Yes, all the matches outside of the blackout are covered. There are no fixtures on Saturdays, nor any that clash with televised matches, but there is a fair portion.
  14. Queens Park Rangers 1-1 Ipswich Town Sheffield Wednesday 1-2 Preston North End Joker Cambridge United 1-0 Bristol Rovers Carlisle United 2-1 Exeter City Grimsby Town 1-1 Mansfield Town Sutton United 0-1 AFC Wimbledon Rochdale 1-2 Eastleigh Wealdstone 3-1 AFC Fylde
  15. Although there are positive aspects to consider, it is frustrating to have controlled the game so much. While I respect the outcome, I believe we should have returned with all three points. Based on the events that transpired, the result is fair. Neither team posed enough challenges to the other. However, Luke Williams is correct in his assertion that we need to concentrate during the game. With patience, success will come.
  16. I am fully inclined to view it as a point earned. Despite our efforts, without a clear opportunity, it's difficult to perceive it otherwise. I believe Luke Williams might have made a prudent choice by introducing a substitution at half-time, perhaps bringing on Sam Austin or John Bostock. Not that a change was necessary, but I sense that introducing a different player could have altered Morecambe's approach. They seemed to have a good understanding of our tactics and were attentive to marking specific players. In my opinion, the game was satisfactory, and I'm relieved that the weather remained pleasant with sunshine prevailing. We will undoubtedly make improvements; I have confidence in that.
  17. I didn't have the opportunity to comment on this, but I found the victory to be exceptional. Considerable effort was invested in overcoming the two setbacks, and the entire squad contributed to transforming what could have been a potential defeat or draw into a win. The goals displayed a high level of quality, and they were all executed very well. The finishing from Grimsby's players was also outstanding. Their second goal was a beautifully executed move!
  18. Best of luck; Brad should do perfectly well. I'm hopeful that we can arrange loans for the senior youth team members as well, but for a first-year scholar, Grantham serves as an ideal loan opportunity.
  19. Indeed, we all would have preferred to secure a victory, and when examining the statistics, it does seem like that should have been the result. However, matches are not determined solely by statistics or what's on paper. Credit must be given to Morecambe for making adjustments that curtailed Notts' ability to create further chances during a period of intense pressure. If we were in their shoes, we'd likely be commending Luke Williams for similar decisions.
  20. Hello, @MagpieRoy. Welcome to the community.
  21. Passion, grit, and an unwavering belief in our abilities are what we need to secure victory against Morecambe. I'm particularly excited to see how McGoldrick utilises his experience to pressure Morecambe's defence. This promises to be an absorbing encounter.
  22. League Two may be taking shape, but it's still early days. Momentum can shift quickly, and we've seen teams claw back from defeat in the past. While a win is not imperative at this point, it would certainly boost morale for Notts and settle the initial jitters they might have.
  23. Jodi Jones delivered some brilliant crosses. We were a bit fortunate that Dan Crowley got on the end of one of them. Grimsby fans can’t be happy with their team’s defending. John Bostock’s control and volley were stunning and would be just as impressive in the Premier League.
