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I’ve only seen photos, but both teletext and the old Notts scoreboard seem very outdated now.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.

The Nest probably made a good profit during the Euros. It was always full, with demand exceeding its capacity of 1,000. The club would have understood the importance of the competition for success. So, it seems unlikely that we sold Macaulay Langstaff at a low price just to recover some money. Regarding the pitch, it wouldn’t be the first time Notts might have sold a player to fund or pay for changes to the ground. But surely, Notts would have wanted more for a player who had two successful seasons. I don’t think it’s worth worrying about now. What’s done is done and we can’t change it. The total fee might be more than what has been reported.

I propose that the rules for guessing should allow for three guesses per day. However, after making the first guess, you should wait for three other members to make their guesses before you can proceed with your second and third guesses.

It does annoy me when we see heritage and things you can be proud of about Great Britain stop in favour of cheaper options overseas. Certain things should be made with pride and under our own mint. I don’t like the news of this because it’s taken 1,000 years to stop something which we have always done to a high standard. Every day, I see a new novelty coin for sale in an advert encouraging people to get one for keepsake, proudly saying it’s made in Britain and by our royal mint. Now, our coins are likely not to be.

Martin Allen, a manager known for his humour and charm, was someone I greatly admired. Yes, he used his charisma to distract from the results, but that only made us focus on more important aspects. Luke Williams is an excellent communicator. I enjoyed his press interviews and listening to his insights. He has a genuine, friendly approach that seems to bring out the best in players. These two are the only ones who have stood out as particularly good managers during my time so far. Please don’t bring up Kevin Nolan. He treated players poorly and had one good season thanks to two promising Forest youngsters. His loyalty to his drinking buddies caused us a lot of trouble. Also, listening to Ricardo Moniz was enjoyable - he spoke about football properly and came across well. However, our defence wasn’t great under him. I don’t care about seeing attacking football when the games are very tight, even when you score 3 goals! He’s a good coach, but not the best.

As a club, I believe we’ve built him up a bit, but I have faith in our recruitment process. He’s had a few games in the Championship, a history of injuries, and spent a lot of time below the Football League. This is the kind of signing that you’re pleased to see become a valuable asset, that’s all I’m saying. I’m not particularly concerned about a player’s past, even though our club tends to hype up the fact that they’ve had a stint with bigger teams, as if the Championship label is supposed to signify something.

Most supermarkets are similar; it really depends on how well they store their products. Even then, getting home deliveries can feel like a gamble. You’re relying on the person selecting your shopping to choose well and not just get rid of items close to expiry. They’re supposed to pick fresh items with good dates, but sometimes the stock can be inconsistent, and staff may be in a rush. My mum still tends to use local markets to get fresh fruit, although it could be worse. There are places that leave their fruit outside even when it’s warm, and flies or bugs can get to them.

Over-mining, or the overuse of any natural resource, is a problem. Sooner or later, these resources will deplete, and we’ll have to depend on something else. If the money earned from these resources is spent wisely, things can remain as they were. However, many places don’t manage their funds well. When crime escalates and the authorities become corrupt, it can ruin what is still a beautiful place.

Whether it’s a pre-season friendly or not, @super_ram, your team has disappointed us. Could you help us make sense of this result? Did you field all young players? We need some explanation for this outcome.

I’m considering reviving this, assuming there’s still interest and members are up for challenging the likes of Tone and Fozzy. I plan to conduct one round per week, unless no one can guess the answer, in which case it might extend beyond that. If that happens, I’ll quickly move on and post a new ‘guess who’. Here’s the updated table following Piethagoram’s round. Points Table: @Fan of Big Tone - 9 @Fozzy - 5 @Piethagoram - 2 @super_ram - 2 @KB1862 - 1 @liampie - 1 For those who are new, you’re welcome to join in when new rounds are posted. Existing members, please do participate. In each round, I’ll provide a description of someone previously associated with Notts. The clues will be vague, but you can ask questions for more information.

If they had managed to retain more of their top players from the team that won the promotion, it might have been beneficial when bringing in new players. Nothing is impossible, and while it’s unlikely, they might have been able to compete at the higher end of League One. It would have been a challenge, but with the unity their squad developed in League Two, it could have been achievable. In our first match against them, they seemed average, but they improved significantly in our subsequent encounter. Adam Campbell was particularly challenging.

Swindon Town could be a suitable team for John Bostock. He deserves the opportunity to play for another reasonably large League Two team. It’s hard to imagine him playing regularly in League One, but in football, you never know. It would be unfortunate to see him move down to the National League, but the right project could greatly benefit the later stages of his career.

This could potentially be a beneficial move for both footballers. However, there are some concerns regarding Will Randall’s motivation to excel in a team like Swindon. Swindon has a reputation for cycling through players at a faster rate than we were accustomed to in the past. It’s something to consider.

Honestly, offering cheaper soft drinks could potentially increase revenue, assuming Notts can partner with a suitable company. It could be a win-win situation for both parties. Given the high cost of soft drinks at the club, a more affordable option that meets the club’s demand could be worth exploring. The challenge lies in finding a supplier, placing a substantial order, and ensuring the taste is appealing. Just because something is cheaper doesn’t necessarily mean people will buy it. However, if it’s tasty and offers good value, it could be a hit. @Piethagoram https://www.refresco.com/en/stories/refresco-completes-acquisition-cotts-bottling-activities/

Volunteering at Nottingham Hospital is commendable, and something that Notts fans who are patients there will surely appreciate. It’s lovely that Ian has fond memories of his trips to cover the games, even if his time at Wembley for Notts was in an empty stadium. Wendy’s struggle with her brain tumour diagnosis is distressing. I empathise with the family and hope they continue to bravely confront this challenge together. It’s undoubtedly tough, but I’m certain that I’m not the only fan sending well wishes to the couple.

It’s evident in your videos that you’re sometimes affected by your health issues, and I must admit, I’ve been worried since you mentioned your breathing problem. We’re all part of the Notts fan community, and you’re no different. If you ever need to talk, feel free to message me on Twitter or here. I don’t mean to intrude, but it’s clear that you’re a good person with a deep love for Notts. Your content is a joy to consume, but please don’t stress over maintaining high standards. Chasing perfection can lead to unhappiness, but if your viewers are enjoying your content, that’s a special achievement. I’ll be honest, I don’t follow many vloggers because I often find them uninteresting. But you’re different. You connect with people, sharing your insights and experiences as a fan. You have a balanced presence that never crosses the line. You may be known in the Notts community for your videos, but it’s you, the person behind the camera, that we connect with.

It’s disappointing that they didn’t honour your win, even with your parents’ permission. I don’t see why your age should have been an issue, especially with your dad’s support. It’s simply wrong that they let you enter, announced you as a winner, and then let it amount to nothing.

Hello, @Mark Holland. Welcome to the Pride of Nottingham. Would you tell us a little something about yourself, such as how long you have supported Notts?

Welcome to the Pride of Nottingham, @jake008. Not only a fan of Notts but James Bond also? Tell us something about yourself, if you would.
