  1. Meta and Facebook, although still popular, aren't very trusted, and Elon Musk is making x.com feel similarly. In the part of Texas where I reside, we have our own community site, a blend of PON and Facebook. I wouldn't mind if the mainstream platforms faded away; I never got into MySpace, so having a local alternative is quite ideal.
  2. Congratulations, ladies! A proud victory, and hopefully the first of many in your upcoming games.
  3. Welcome to the community @Colin Phillips! I'm delighted to greet you. Feel free to share a bit about yourself, like why Notts is your choice!
  4. I've been part of forums before, and they often make you feel invisible, with just one or two friendly folks. Even on small sites, like a niche one for long-distance drivers with around 50 active members, it was unexpectedly hostile and unfriendly to beginners. I eventually gave up on it. Community matters, as does a positive online environment (PON), and I miss posting when I can't be online. While I may not know many well, those I feel acquainted with are the ones who contribute to making this site a welcoming place.
  5. Great news! I'm optimistic that Matt Palmer will return even stronger, seamlessly resuming his role as if he hasn't missed any games at all. His importance to the team's success is undeniable. Despite potential player losses next summer, I'm confident he'll be with us next season, dominating the midfield as always.
  6. Speaking from experience, it works both ways. I feel truly humbled to be on the receiving end as well as the one reaching out. The post on x.com appears somber, mentioning pain, but I sincerely wish you well, @Piethagoram. It's evident that there are people here who care about you, so I hope that's a positive for you.
  7. I'm very willing to support Stuart Maynard, even though I'm overseas. I believe having a logical way of thinking is important. I can understand to some extent why some people are booing; it doesn't help, but people need to express their frustrations. However, it shouldn't go further than that. The only way to win over doubters is by winning games. I'm not sure what more Maynard can do. He appears to be making an effort, and I wouldn't say he's overwhelmed, but rather, he's trying to establish himself and make his mark on the team.
  8. Yes, this would be really helpful. I can see it would've been useful when I was in hospital and getting better. Even though I might not have said it, I could have given a general idea of when I should be back. It's a good thing to have.
  9. Welcome, @ShannockPie. We're a friendly bunch of fans and if you do put in any time by commenting, I am certain you will get a lot more out of PON.
  10. It's a tad unclear, but I understand the idea. Picture yourself recalling those promotion years, with Jimmy Sirrel and all the legends we've sadly lost over time.
  11. I grasp the disapproval following the Sutton game, but I can't comprehend why certain fans haven't given Stuart Maynard a fair opportunity. Instantly desiring a manager to be dismissed isn't a positive reflection for a supposed supporter. Unfortunately, some individuals, particularly in this era, simply relish a good complaint. I acknowledge the reaction after Sutton; I wouldn't have jeered, but losing to the team firmly at the bottom of the table and conceding 9 goals against them naturally stirs heightened emotions. If this persists in substantial proportions, that's a distinct concern. It would be regrettable to see the connection established with promotion severed so early.
  12. Happy birthday, young man! I hope your years of wisdom and lovely family make it a birthday to feel even more blessed. All the best, @super_ram.
  13. The Lego version of Meadow Lane looks absolutely stunning, a fine remake of one of the best football grounds.
  14. @Robbie With limited playing options and no substitutes, it's even more remarkable to acknowledge that we won it with a squad that truly deserved to take home the cup.
  15. He should intensify his training efforts and hope for a win this weekend. The atmosphere around the club has become unpleasant, and some fans are exacerbating the situation. Currently, the focus should be on long-term stability rather than short-term gains. In the National League, the ability to sign players at any time supported our improvements and addressed existing weaknesses. Until the end of this season, Maynard or whoever is the manager can only make do, and the right working environment is crucial.
