History Is Our Greatest Weapon Part 2
super_ram commented on scottpie's blog entry in scottpie's Blog
Just be careful what you wish for ,scott.Patience is the key and I understand how you and others feel when things don't seem to be getting any better.I've said somewhere else on this site that October is the time to start worrying.Let's see how things progress this month and then re-assess. -
At least a decent performance and could or should have been a win.

What Does It Mean To Be A Notts County Supporter
super_ram commented on scottpie's blog entry in scottpie's Blog
They were in the 3rd Division North and 2nd in the league,(Easter)when only one team was promoted to the 2nd division(one team from Division 3 south also promoted) when I was first taken to a match.The gate was 30 odd thousand and they lost 3-1 to Grimsby Town,who went on to win the league.This was 1955/6 when I was 9 .Derby had been relegated from the top tier in 1952/3 and from the second tier in 1954/55 having been the first post war winners of the FA cup in 1945/46.Mansfield was never an option and I would have been ostracised if I had taken to the unmentionable lot.We only went to Chesterfield to watch the cricket when Derbyshire played at Queens park-Leaving the obvious two teams. (Alfreton Town weren't reformed until 1959 and I went to their first match and most others when Derby Were away.) -
What Does It Mean To Be A Notts County Supporter

I was brought up in Alfreton.The nearest league grounds were-Mansfield,9 miles-Chesterfield,13 miles-Derby,15 miles and Notts and that lot 16 miles.There were a few Man U fans about ,influenced by the Munich disaster and a few Spurs fans due to their double success but most were Derby or Unmentionable fans.My family were Derby. My uncle (my dad's youngest brother) was always going on about Derby(he was, and still is obsessed)He used to bang on about Derby's FA Cup win and got me to memorise the team.He used to show me old programmes and never shut up talking about The Rams.In fact my Grandma used to tell him to change the subject only for my Grandad or some other family member to take up where my uncle left off.Is there any wonder I support Derby County,it was drilled in to me.Then when I started work and later met my wife to be you may understand why Notts come a very close second. -

I've explained before-I first took an interest in Notts while working with an older Notts nut.We used to exchange match talk and support each other when results went wrong.He would tell me about all the old players he'd seen.As a teenager I found this all really interesting.My interest in Notts was helped similarly by my father-in-law (GrannyPie's dad and Joes Grandad)We would test each other with Notts/Derby/general football trivia. -
Another nice article,very good views.
-
Yes,very impressive.
-
A win at last!
-
Good preview,Uni.90+ minutes of concentrated effort from players and fans required.Good luck Notts.
-
I think that just about sums it up S-D-A
-
Confidence will be a big factor at the moment Players don't go on to the field intending to play poorly.If Notts could just manage to score first in a match you may suddenly see a different team.
-
Time to stand up and be counted.A performance like at Liverpool required.Good luck.
-
Thanks for the update,Joe. Everything seems to be going wrong at the moment for Notts-silly mistakes,bad refereeing decisions,etc,lets hope it all changes very soon.
-
Better read late than never-Another good report,thanks Joe.
-
Another Excellent oppo fan view.Particularly liked the choice of match last Tuesday.Thanks Joe and Ian.
-
With the Rams cruising I was listening with Granny(she was just a little bit excited) and really began to think Notts could do it.I'm pleased every enjoyed the night. Thanks for another entertaining report Joe

Bring On Liverpool - Coyp!

Nice little blog,Joe,a real rallying cry!Good luck tonight. -
Very well written preview,Joe.Will Liverpool get the Notts backlash?
-
So nice to read an article like this.Thanks,Matt and Joe.
-
When are the two Nottingham clubs going to stop spoiling my weekends?Thanks again for keeping me in touch,Joe.
-
A nice ,interesting post.Thanks to all involved.
-
A well thought out post.Both of the above make valid points but whatever team Ck chooses ,I still go for a comfortable 3 - 0 win for Notts..If Notts can get an early goal to settle the nerves and put more pressure on Stevenage it could even be a bigger win.If Stevenage happen to score first it will be nail biting time but I still take Notts to win. Thanks for your views, Unipie.
-
Love these articles,always good.Thanks.
-
Thanks for updating me again,Joe.
