Hello, @Charlie_ncfc. Welcome to the PON site and community, be sure to join in when you can.

Do you like it, @Piethagoram? I’m not a fan of it, or even the regular version. The texture puts me off. I don’t like white or dark chocolate either. Milk chocolate is the only one I enjoy, and even then, it depends a lot on what it’s paired with. I was surprised when Poundland copied it with their Twin Peaks.

I love the choice in username! Great decision!! 👍🏻👏🏻 Welcome to the Pride of Nottingham, @piedestrian. If your username is any indication to your personality, I think you would fit right in and I would highly encourage you to spread more humour within the PON community. It's great to have you here.

Missing out on the playoffs would be a major disappointment, much like how we felt when we deserved promotion in the National League but underperformed in the playoff final against Chesterfield. That’s why I believe Walsall deserves a place in the automatics, they’ve shown they belong. I found their fans calling for the manager’s dismissal perplexing, even during a rough patch. Their situation highlights how harmony and unity are essential for clubs striving for promotion.

George Abbott has grown immensely since joining the first team. From a reserved player hesitant to celebrate with fans at the start of the season, he's developed into someone who could one day be a squad leader and a future club captain. His talent is undeniable, though he needs to manage his temper better as his short fuse can be a concern. Nonetheless, his growth as a player is exciting to watch.

Ian Burchnall did an adequate job during his time with Notts, but he wasn’t exceptional. He left the club for what he described as a "project" with Forest Green Rovers, jumping at the first opportunity to manage an EFL team. While I understand managers moving on, the way he left felt abrupt, and joining a struggling League One side wasn't a great career move. His tenure there reinforced that it was the wrong decision. While it’s nice he has fond memories of Notts, we’ve moved forward. I wouldn't welcome him back, just as I wouldn’t wish to see Luke Williams, Kevin Nolan, or Harry Kewell return.

Adam Chicksen’s injury is unfortunate, and I sympathise with him. Some fans think the club should offer him a new contract as a way of repaying him for his contributions during the promotion to the EFL. While I appreciate what he did for us, I don't think awarding him a contract purely out of sentiment is justified. His performances before and after that standout season were average. Clubs often support injured players through recovery, but it's common for players to move on once they regain fitness, even if offered a good deal. I hope Adam recovers swiftly, but I don’t think the club owes him anything.

David McGoldrick has had a remarkable season and could end it on a high note by clinching the League Two Golden Boot. It would be fitting given that this might be one of his final seasons. Whether he continues for another year remains uncertain, but he's certainly shown he's capable. Alassana Jatta has also been pivotal in our push for promotion, and it's wonderful to see him gaining recognition by representing Gambia as a Notts player. I wish them both the best in their race to finish as the top scorer.

Nick Tsaroulla’s injury is unfortunate, but it’s not the end of the world. At this stage, it’s reasonable to expect a significant layoff given the nature of the injury. With two guaranteed games remaining and the playoffs highly likely, it’s unrealistic to hope for a quick return. I send my best wishes to him for a strong recovery and look forward to seeing him back on the pitch when he’s ready.
