  1. While watching the match on iFollow, I observed that Dan Crowley didn't have a significant impact in the first half. Although he was involved, his contributions mostly consisted of backward or sideways passes, with only a few skillful deliveries that set Aaron Nemane in motion – although those instances were infrequent. In the initial half, it was Aaron Nemane and David McGoldrick who particularly caught my attention.
  2. I don't believe Richard Brindley can be entirely blamed for not intercepting the ball; he might have reached it, but one would anticipate the goalkeeper to handle such situations more effectively. Aidan Stone's positioning left room for improvement, as did his reaction, although I was impressed by his distribution skills.
  3. @Fan of Big Tone I trust you received some form of compensation or discount due to the problems that caused inconvenience. Although I've never encountered any issues while ordering items to the United States, I did have an experience at Meadow Lane a few years ago before the onset of COVID. During my visit, I found the shop to be poorly managed, and a few of the staff members came across as impolite. They engaged in conversations with other customers while ignoring me, and some even served me while engaged in discussions with fellow fans. While I understand the emphasis on being a family-oriented club, discourteous behavior and subpar service are not what one would expect from a professional organisation.
  4. Just above half way, I am quite content with that. Some good rounds and I will be catching those above me up.
  5. Were you able to locate a printer, @Piethagoram?
  6. Coming to you from across the pond, @JC1966 I offer a warm welcome and hope that your engagement with the PON site brings you the same level of enjoyment that us regular members experience.
  7. Warm greetings across the pond! I'm delighted to welcome you @MagpieRoy and wish that your interaction with the PON site is as delightful as it is for those of us who visit regularly.
  8. Hello from the other side of the pond! @zaradek I extend a friendly welcome to you and trust that your time on the PON site brings you as much satisfaction as it does for us regular users.
  9. Sending warm regards from across the pond, @helcat. I extend a hearty welcome to you and hope that your experience with the PON site is as enjoyable as it is for us frequent visitors.
  10. I appreciate it. Initially, I was uncertain about this situation, but I wanted to express my gratitude for your kind gesture. The children of my neighbours were genuinely appreciative, and especially during my health concern, it was heartening to witness them being recognised in this manner.
  11. Julie's story is beautifully interwoven with passion, tradition, and an unwavering loyalty towards Notts. The way her family has passed down their love for the team through generations is simply amazing. This truly embodies the spirit of being a Magpie!
  12. While it wasn't the victory we all wanted, I can't fault the lads' give-it-all spirit. Luke Williams accurately pointed out that our concentration was a bit shaky. However, 'Rome wasn't built in a day,' and neither is a strong, cohesive football team. The errors we saw are fixable, requiring persistence and steady hard work. I look forward to seeing the team refine its precision and timing.

  15. This is a brilliant interview. Mark Stallard provides excellent insight into how he thinks Notts will perform and what needs to be done to achieve success.
  16. I would advise the players to go out, enjoy their football, and focus on pressing to win the ball back as quickly as possible. I'm certain Luke Williams will have set them up and communicated his vision for their playing style. If we can secure a win in the upcoming game, it would be a great advantage for the home game, as the pressure to get that first win would be lifted. I expect the match to be very open, and my score prediction would be 3-1 in favor of Notts.
  17. The Magpie Circle is an excellent platform, but I must admit, this is the first time I've seen it in a while. I don't often come across their YouTube channel, unfortunately.
  18. While ground sharing with Forest wouldn't be feasible, I agree with @liampie and other fans who have emphasized the benefits of owning the land. Ownership provides security, and any ambitious team aiming to compete at the highest level must possess their facilities outright. It's the only way to ensure future-proofing, as the council could easily decide to sell the land to developers once the lease expires, just as easily as bad owners might.
  19. Dave Bracegirdle will do well, I'm sure. I listened to his commentary a few times last season, and it was perfectly fine. In fact, I liked his commentary more than Charlie Slater's. However, I do enjoy Charlie's celebrations and banter with Mark Stallard, which can't be replicated.
  20. I'm not familiar with Darnell Fisher, so I can't comment on him. However, I do agree that offering training sessions to players who aren't transfer targets seems pointless. It's possible the club did consider him, so I'll wait for the news before commenting further.
  21. Jim O'Brien comes across as a lovely person and a dedicated footballer. Age is just a number, and as long as he can run and contribute, which he certainly does, it highlights how significant he has been for us in recent years.
  22. Best of luck to Curtis Thompson at Cheltenham, I hope he becomes a solid addition to their team.
  23. What a super goal by David McGoldrick! It was a fantastic finish!
  24. The subscription service is truly a godsend. I have already subscribed, and I would even be willing to pay more for multi-camera views. However, I'm content with a single point of view as it still brings me closer to the action than I've been in a while. It feels like having my season ticket, and I believe any exiled fan would share the same sentiment.
  25. Jayden Richardson received a lot of praise from fans until he made that costly mistake. While it had a significant impact, it's essential to move on from such incidents. Every player can make errors, and it's unfair to undermine his earlier contributions based on one mistake. Let's wish him the best of luck at Stockport, except when playing against Notts.
