Good point by @Don Masson, I agree. If we sign a good attacking midfielder, it gives us the option to push Cedwyn Scott up front. If we aim to sign a striker, maybe we should sign one who can also drop deeper and change their style of play. A good player will score no matter if they play as a striker or attacking midfielder. The main thing is to support and create chances that someone can put away.

It’s a good thing I don’t need to rush, except for making sure I post promptly for the next round. Otherwise, I might not make it in time. ????

If he hasn’t already, he could become a podcaster and YouTube personality. Many ex-sports athletes are doing this because they can work less and spend more time doing what they love. Tom is a nice guy. I hated all the issues in his career early on over his sexuality. I hope he enjoys retirement.

Did the officers face any fines or disciplinary actions? It seems a bit unfair. Imagine if the officers were doing this as a con to gain money. I’m not suggesting this was the case, but it could happen.

Hello, @Nay. Welcome to the Pride of Nottingham.

Hello, @Countylad. Welcome to the Pride of Nottingham.

Hello, @Gaz whitworth. Welcome to the Pride of Nottingham.

Come the end of the season, I’m going to see how many you’ve guessed right, @ARLukomski. I trust your judgement on knowledge, mate. Great in-depth read! I had to break it up into two readings, but I got there! I’m surprised you are still not writing it.

@menzinho, brilliant read, mate! Not a bad introduction to writing a feature for PON. I look forward to reading more of what you have to say. As for this, I agree that defensively Notts look better, and it sounds like this was proven at Tranmere. With Darren Moore in League Two with Port Vale, they should be a force to be reckoned with. I also think Swindon should surprise people; they are a team that could easily flip their season.

By all accounts, the draw is a good start. I think if a goal had gone in, it would have forced Tranmere to attack us more. I think a point is a good enough start. If we win on Saturday, we could be well on our way to starting a nice streak, which early on could be a massive thing.

The start is a good number to begin with. I will have to dig deep to make up the ground, and I hope to achieve some reasonable results once I can join in with this.

Good signing. He’s a very calm player, and when I heard we had signed him, I wondered how we managed to pull it off. I would have thought a League One team would have stumped up the cash to get him, but I do think MK Dons are guilty of signing players they want, not seeing things through, or giving them a fair chance before discarding them. It’s like throwing mud at the wall and seeing what sticks. I am pleased to welcome Conor Grant to Notts!

Jeff Astle, although a player I have never seen play, I am aware of him and have enjoyed reading many “on this day” posts by PON over the years. The write-up is excellent and very good. JJ used to do an incredible job with this, and I think it’s rubbed off on you, @Chris. Astle is a great player when it comes to looking at footballers through history. I am pleased to have learned more about him from this.

It makes me wish I could have made it. I’m pleased to see you taking your fan pictures, @Chris. Everyone looks very happy! So good to see!

I am pleased for Stuart Maynard. He took a lot of criticism early on, and it was made worse with Luke Williams departing. It hurt to see Williams leave, but it hurt more to see Maynard take all the blame. I think he speaks sense. Some might appeal to his way of talking, but I think he shows a good level of understanding when processing the game in his mind. When you’re so quick to be interviewed, it might be difficult to recall everything, but he says mostly what we need to hear and he doesn’t mask it.

Thank you, I am recovering. I won’t be playing football any time soon, but I should be able to attend the game on Sunday. I’m not sure about travelling to distant games yet; I’ll have to wait and see. I appreciate the kind messages!

Let’s be realistic, the starting 11 played is unlikely to match Stuart Maynard’s selection for the season. Jacob Bedeau is probably the only defender who will make it to the team sheet. It’s doubtful that Adam Chicksen and Kellan Gordon would start over Jodi Jones or Aaron Nemane. Moreover, Nick Tsaroulla is expected to feature more than Chicksen. From a defensive standpoint, the selection seems weak. However, I’m not overly concerned. I do hope that Scott Robertson and Curtis Edwards demonstrated some synergy on the field. Relying on Sam Austin, Ryley Reynolds, and David McGoldrick to spearhead our attack does seem a bit harsh. While I’m pleased that Reynolds did, there’s a noticeable lack of quality around him. The changes made around the 60-minute mark seemed quite disjointed.

It seems like the gossip factory is working overtime. Why wouldn’t Leeds have just bid for him from us? They’ve signed Kasper from us in the past, so it’s not as if anyone had to hurry the original deal. I’d imagine if the rumour were true, it would only irritate some of our fan base even more. I highly doubt it’s true.

Assuming everyone is in agreement, I plan to post the next round on Wednesday, the 31st, at 6pm. It will be wonderful to bring this back!

I’m certain it’s had a significant impact, so I’d urge supporters who are able to, to give it some thought. Additionally, promoting the purchase of items from the shop assists the gaffer and keeps the site running smoothly. The aspect of articles is a key factor in garnering support. I have no doubt that @Chris will be focusing on this.

I’ve only seen photos, but both teletext and the old Notts scoreboard seem very outdated now. I’m not saying that’s a bad thing. It just shows how much progress has been made. It’s likely that the things we take for granted today, just like people did with those, will probably see significant advancements in the future.

It’s frustrating how we gave Junior Morias such a small opportunity, especially considering we paid money and acted as if he would be the player to help us climb the table when we signed him. One thing I really dislike is that we paid a fee and then never gave him a chance, only to loan him out ahead of a season where we are short and he would likely get more playing time. This is very disappointing. It’s clear that he was signed for the hype but was never valued by the club’s personnel. I also don’t understand why we are loaning him out if we plan to bring in another player. Additionally, I sincerely hope we don’t put David McGoldrick up front. He’ll squander more opportunities than he will score by trying to do everything on his own.

It’s nice to see photos of the old scoreboard still being remembered. It highlights how much progress has been made over time. I liken it to the nostalgia I feel when relatives tell me about teletext. It was handy for updates at a time when there were few ways to stay informed.

York will be a good trip for fans. It’s a nice day out and the match should be more enjoyable. I’d like to see a stronger team playing for longer, but I think it will stay as two halves of 45 minutes each. I’m curious to know how the minor issues mentioned by Stuart Maynard are progressing. Ideally, the team will be nearing full readiness for selection. I’m aware that Matt Palmer still has some work ahead, but hopefully, he’ll be back for the Tranmere match.
