  1. I’m in favour of this idea too. Meadow Lane could look fantastic with some art like this, especially next to the large KOP flag. It would be nice to utilise the unused seats on match days in a creative way that looks better than empty seats.
  2. As of today, I’m officially attending the match at Meadow Lane. I plan to meet @TheSkipper at The Embankment pub, then we’ll grab a bite before the game starts with @liampie. On Sunday, I don’t anticipate anything special. I think I’ll just try to stay warm.
  3. I would be pleased if we extend Dan Gosling’s contract until the season’s end, despite his limited playtime. It could provide us with more options in midfield. Additionally, we could utilise Lewis Macari more and recruit another tall, straightforward, physical defender.
  4. It would be a delightful day in Nottingham, witnessing Notts defeat Forest and observing the disappointed reds retreat to their basements or man caves. However, it might take a while before I see such a victory for Notts.
  5. All we desire is for Notts to truly show their skills in a strong display where they battle every second. It’s a great opportunity to gain points, but we must be mindful of our strategy against Walsall and ensure we put in more effort.
  6. In hindsight, Enzio wasn’t as good a signing. He scored important goals that saved us at times, but people will remember that more than his poor performances. I thought there was potential in him, but he never really shone beyond being average.
  7. Dan Crowley is the most consistent player so far. He’s excellent with the ball and gets better as the game progresses. He might be quiet at times, but he’s usually one of the four players that gets us going. Even when others aren’t playing well, he’s still one of the best players on the pitch.
  8. Now that I understand the current agreement better, I think it’s fine because it allows us to grow. I wonder what would happen if Notts tried to buy land around the ground for further work. I hope Meadow Lane remains a traditional four-stand stadium. If we move up the leagues and attendance increases, we might need some work done.
  9. I feel we might underestimate Walsall, and they could surprise us. They have several good players and a tall squad. They just haven’t clicked yet. I don’t know much about the club’s background or if they have issues with recruitment or money, but I expect them to come prepared to Meadow Lane.
  10. The Skipper, Kyle Cameron, spoke honestly in his pre-match interview. He shared his feelings and how the team has been working on their defence. I think they’ve been training hard. The interview with Luke Williams was earlier than usual, maybe because they wanted to focus more on this area. I think the Skipper did well.

  12. Oh, I could watch this goal again and again - what a lovely finish!
  13. I didn’t do much, mostly just surfed the internet, watched TV and films. It was nice to have a weekend where I could do whatever I wanted. With Notts having played the Friday before and the snow, it wasn’t like I was going to go out again.
  14. We need to find ways to work with the existing players. Making bad choices doesn’t always mean they’ve lost focus. This is something I wish Luke Williams understood. He’s right about most things, but he keeps insisting it’s a lack of concentration when it’s more about not reacting well to pressure.
  15. I understand, but I don’t agree. The problem is all these popups that seem to think they can make money or are doing it for some other reason. How many vloggers does one club need? We are also attracting many people who pretend to have a genuine interest in our club. They are not supporters, but they come here to try to get views because we were successful last season. Personally, I only watch @ARLukomski because he’s been doing it for a long time. He puts in time and effort, he’s not cringey, and he shares his views, which you can often relate to. Some make cheesy thumbnails as if they’re 15-year-old girls doing makeup videos, pouting and acting all shocked. It just seems fake. I don’t think these should be allowed. People like ARLukomski should be okay in my opinion. I’m not biased, as I don’t really know him, but I do appreciate what he does here.
  16. He deserved the applause when he left the field. The chant for him as he departed made his goal even more memorable.
  17. I wish Luke Williams keeps on introducing young players. We should aim to shape these players for first team roles. Teams like Crewe have done well in the past by knowing their needs, like a left winger. I believe we are about three seasons away from seeing a youth player take on a part-time role in our first team. We just need one player to pave the way and show it’s worthwhile.
  18. He had a great debut, performed well and his strike was truly impressive. I hope he gets more playing time in the future, as there’s so much to learn from being on the pitch and being part of the squad. He’s definitely a promising talent and if we can develop him to contribute more consistently, that would be fantastic. However, for those fans who see this clip and start comparing him to Messi, it’s important to remember not to set unrealistic expectations. Let’s just cheer him on and support him, shall we?
  19. @Piethagoram I'm now holding you responsible for the FA Cup performance. It seems the defenders were trying to outdo the goalkeepers! They were after your title of 'worst defenders'. Just a bit of fun, of course! ????
  20. Hello, welcome to the Pride of Nottingham @Strawb66. We are a great community, you'll have fun for sure if you join in.
  21. Our community is lively and dynamic, and we always welcome back former members. It’s unfortunate when they leave, but that’s part of life. We continue to meet new people, but I’d be thrilled to see some of the names @liampie mentioned return. If they can spare the time, I’m confident they’d feel right at home again on PON.
  22. It’s disappointing, but I hope the players can move beyond this. We have the league to focus on, which is crucial at this stage. Dare I say, maybe we should have considered postponing the match? But in hindsight, it was best to get it over with.
  23. What a fantastic goal from Junior Morias, it was such a joy to see him score his first goal for us. His celebration showed just how much it meant to him. The team’s reaction to celebrate with him was heartwarming, truly a special moment.
  24. I saw his post-match interview, and his evident pleasure really struck me. This article conveys that as well. If Jim is reading this - I admire your passion and hope you join Notts’ youth setup. We’ll find a way to improve your deal with Sheffield United, just let us know what you need.
  25. Those super tight shorts are the stuff of nightmares! It brings to mind the scenes from the Goldbergs when Adam is in the gym. I’m amazed they could even kick a ball, I wouldn’t want to be caught wearing them.
