  1. Winning games is definitely going to attract younger fans, not to mention having players they can look up to. It's great to see that Notts is already making strides in this area.
  2. Once you've had a taste of the National League, it's hard not to follow it closely. I'm curious, which teams others are most hopeful about going up next season? Other than Boreham Wood.
  3. It's a shame when a signing doesn't work out, but it happens to the best of clubs. Hopefully Notts can learn from the mistake of signing players like this but good luck to him in the future.
  4. The Luton Town story is truly amazing! It goes to show that anything can happen in football. I'm looking out for them to stay up, but if not, I hope they have a solid plan to build for the future. If relegated, I hope they earn promotion back to the Premier League, it would be a great achievement.
  5. Welcome to the community, here on PON @Lydia.
  6. I liked and appreciated Enzio, but I realised much like with Cal Roberts we depended on him too much and the club wouldn’t improve until that stopped. That said, comparing Roberts to Enzio, is like comparing Messi to Snijders (ours). However, we did depend on Roberts and improved after he left. Enzio was always going to be that case.
  7. If you are a Notts County fan living away from Nottingham, you might feel a bit isolated and disconnected from your beloved club. That’s why sites like the Pride of Nottingham are so beneficial for exile fans. They provide a platform for you to interact with other Magpies supporters, share your opinions and memories, and stay updated on the latest news and events. You can also enjoy exclusive content such as interviews, podcasts, videos, and more. But even if you are a local fan who can attend matches regularly, you will still find the Pride of Nottingham useful. It’s not just a website, it’s a community of passionate and loyal fans who care about the club and its history. You can join the discussions on the forum, participate in competitions and quizzes, and contribute to the fanzine. You can also show your support for the club by buying official merchandise from the online shop. The Pride of Nottingham is more than just a fan site. It’s a place where you can express your love for Notts County and connect with fellow fans from all over the world. Whether you are an exile or a local, you are welcome to join the Pride of Nottingham family.
  8. Sending our best wishes to @Fan of Big Tone and your wife. We hope that she has a smooth and positive recovery. It’s important to take the time needed to heal properly, so don’t feel the need to rush. Take care!
  9. Great article by @Chris interviewing @Fan of Big Tone, its brilliant
  10. Sending my best wishes to Shaun Brisley at Alfreton Town. I thought he played well for us until the season when we were unfortunately relegated.
  11. I believe that the right to a private life becomes blurred when national television is used as a platform to project personal messages. At the time, his intentions seemed questionable, but now it appears that there was a deeper motive. This leaves me feeling uncomfortable that This Morning and ITV would be so blind as to allow Phillip to essentially lie on television for his own agenda. Since reading about it, I have lost trust in him. I think he is not being scrutinised more closely because he comes across as a nice, lovable person on television. However, he should be investigated like his brother has been, as there seems to be something there. It may not be underage-related, but his relationship with the younger lad does seem to show signs of abuse.
  12. Ricardo Moniz will soon be back in employment. He is never out of work for long and I believe that as long as he feels happy managing a team, he should continue until he decides to retire.
  13. The description of Tony Hateley’s return to Meadow Lane gave me goosebumps. What an unforgettable moment that must have been for all the fans in attendance. To see their hero return to the club and lead them to success must have been an incredible experience.
  14. I’m very happy with this signing. Randall is a superb player who can improve Notts in every aspect. He has a great touch, a great shot and a great pass that makes him a versatile and creative midfielder. He’s also a fighter who can cope with any challenge and pressure.
  15. I believe Notts will do well because of the strength and unity of their squad. Luke Williams deserves recognition for his contributions to the team. I’d also like to thank Simon Clark for writing about this topic. It’s always inspiring to see teams bounce back after losing in the previous year’s final. It demonstrates their resilience and determination to come back even stronger and achieve success.
  16. Langstaff has truly been a phenomenal hero this season. He has scored some truly remarkable goals and has provided endless entertainment for all those watching. His performances have been nothing short of spectacular.
  17. @liampie The Pentrich rebellion was an armed uprising that took place in 1817. It was led by workers from the village of Pentrich in Derbyshire, who were protesting against poor working conditions and low wages. The rebellion was ultimately unsuccessful and several of its leaders were executed for treason. Despite its failure, the rebellion is remembered as an important moment in the history of the labour movement.
  18. @liampie The Reform Bill riots were a significant event in Nottingham’s history. In 1831, the House of Lords rejected the Reform Bill, which aimed to make parliamentary representation more equitable. This sparked widespread protests and riots across the country, including in Nottingham. The rioters targeted the homes of prominent politicians and public buildings, including Nottingham Castle, which was burned down.
  19. I’m really looking forward to the pre-season friendly against Alfreton. It’s always great to see the team in action and get a sense of how they’re shaping up for the new season. Plus, it’s a good opportunity to support the lads and show them that we’re behind them all the way.
  20. What a fantastic achievement for Notts County to have secured the services of Sam Slocombe! As an outstanding goalkeeper and key player for the team, his contribution on the pitch is invaluable. But his impact extends far beyond his skills as a player. Sam is also a wonderful person and a leader both on and off the pitch. The fact that he has chosen to sign a new contract with the club is a testament to his worth and commitment to Notts County. I am absolutely ecstatic that he will be staying with us and I have no doubt that he will continue to be an integral part of our success in the future.
  21. Welcome, @Zski. I hope you find the Pride of Nottingham to be somewhere you can visit and interact with.
  22. Super Sam in middle of our goal! Happy to see him stay, he's a fantastic keeper and has a wealth of experience.
  23. @menzinho I thought Aaron Nemane made Connell Rawlinson appear weaker against Wrexham. He was covering for two players, and after that match, Nemane seemed to have improved significantly. I know some fans blame Rawlinson for Chesterfield’s second goal, but that was a difficult situation. A faster player will always have the advantage and can easily put a defender on the wrong foot. I think most defenders would have struggled to prevent the goal without committing a foul.
  24. Did you overlook the @ symbol as well? That should have prompted you to pay closer attention. I suspect you’re not being entirely truthful, @super_ram. I bet you skimmed over the clue.
  25. It’s unfortunate that Dortmund didn’t win the league. I enjoy watching German football as they have some very entertaining teams. Even Bayern doesn’t always have it easy. Union Berlin supporters are fantastic. I once read that they helped purchase their stadium.
