  1. I remember the sending off and thinking it was very softly given, but aside from that, nothing. He doesn’t appear to have done much since.
  2. I like how the club offered early bird renewals. That brings in a good amount of cash which can be put to various departments to stretch the club’s resources further. I don’t remember where I read it, but I saw that 4,000 renewals had been reached or near to that amount. Impressive! A reward like 3 bring-a-friend tickets per season ticket would be a good way to reward loyalty at no cost to the club. Then fans can try to get friends, neighbours or family down. That action alone could be enough to tempt people to come.
  3. The majority of his teammates stopped playing football altogether, including the young chap who transferred to Mansfield. As for the whereabouts of Nathan Fox, I am not too sure. I didn't get a chance to observe Greg Tempest sufficiently to have much to say about him, only having viewed his highlights.
  4. As Sutton's leading joint goal-scorer, it is evident that we have a talented player capable of scoring. This acquisition seems poised to solidify Notts' aspirations and enable them to progress in League Two. I am immensely pleased with this development.
  5. Congratulations to Macaulay Langstaff for winning yet another award! If the National League and Non League paper did more awards, he would surely be in for a lot more. Keep up the great work!
  6. Can someone explain why fans think that Jodi Jones joining for two years means Ruben Rodrigues will leave? They play different roles, so shouldn't Notts need a new attacking midfielder rather than a winger if this was true?
  7. Apart from the National League, would you consider the Premier League to be the subsequent most challenging division in which to achieve success? I am not referring to the quality of play, but rather the difficulty in accomplishing objectives. Additionally, why do you believe that English managers are increasingly being disregarded for top-flight positions, particularly towards the higher end of the standings? For instance, Eddie, who many might have expected to struggle whilst adapting to a wealthier club like Newcastle United. Nonetheless, it is invigorating to observe his performance. When Newcastle United dismissed Steve Bruce, they might have opted for any manager, but they selected Eddie Howe. What are your thoughts on this matter?
  8. Occasionally, circumstances may prevent members from frequently posting on the forum, or they might leave for various reasons. The recent increase in former members and the sad news regarding Who r ya?? You Pies!! has triggered some personal reflections. Which PON members have you been missing lately? For instance, I have noticed that our invaluable contributor @Super_Danny_Allsopp hadn't posted for quite some time. I enjoyed reading his views on games, as he offered valuable insights, made common-sense arguments, and demonstrated a thorough understanding of how Notts played and how they could improve. I also recollect a young lad by the username @weymouthPIE. I found pleasure in reading his tales of football and, certainly, his thoughts on Notts. What about you? Just in case they may be lurking, who do you miss?
  9. Do you ever find yourself keeping an eye out for ex-players to catch up on how they are doing? Do you have a favourite player that you follow more closely, who used to play for Notts such as Jack Grealish? Further, when they retire, do you make an effort to stay updated with their activities? Let's discuss...
  10. I am thrilled to hear the news of Jodi Jones' signing for our beloved Notts team! A highly skilled player, Jones is no doubt a valuable addition to our roster, and fans will undoubtedly be excited to see how he performs in his new role. With such impressive abilities as a forward, Jones' presence on the pitch is sure to have a significant impact on our performance, and I have no doubt that he will help drive the team forward. Furthermore, I believe that Jones has what it takes to become even more of a fan favourite, and not only because of his impressive football skills. I anticipate that he will also become a popular figure amongst Notts supporters, with fans eagerly purchasing his name on their shirts and other merchandise. Indeed, it would be natural for a player of his calibre to attract attention from the club's supporters, and I have high hopes for his future with the team. Here's to a fantastic season with Jodi leading the way!
  11. Absolutely chuffed to have Jodi Jones signing for Notts! Not only is he a top-notch player with bags of skill, but I reckon he'll be a massive hit with shirt sales too. It's only natural for a player of his calibre to be popular amongst the fans. Here's to hoping he has a cracking season with us and brings some much-needed success for the team. All the best, Jodi!
  12. While the Non-League hasn't been detrimental, I'm thrilled we've managed to leave it behind. Our time there could have dragged on, shortening the Reedtz era. Now, we can focus on achieving even greater success for Notts County.
  13. I am thoroughly impressed by the responses to this game! The thoughtful and well-reasoned explanations are a impressive to the depth of knowledge and engagement from those participating. I'll make every effort to contribute to the discussion in a timely manner if I'm able to provide valuable input. Cheers for the insightful discussion!
  14. An impressive milestone of 5,000 league games has recently been achieved. To put this into perspective, consider that players such as Albert Ironmonger participated in a significant number of matches. I am intrigued to see if anyone can identify 11 footballers who have accumulated high appearance totals, somewhat akin to a countdown. The aim is to determine a total that can be reached exclusively by considering the appearances made by these players, through methods such as multiplication or subtraction. I'm eager to know if any mathematics enthusiasts are up for this engaging challenge. Don't hesitate to join in, if you can solve this!
  15. I recently cast my vote for the top half, although I believe reaching the playoffs might be a bit ambitious at this stage. It could potentially take a full season before the club manages to effectively compete in the quest to exit League Two. While new signings and contract renewals might have an impact, the current squad, despite being talented, could find reaching the playoffs quite challenging.
  16. I wholeheartedly support Joel Taylor's strike, as it was an astounding display of skill. The sheer brilliance of the effort is commendable, and it's no surprise that it garnered well-deserved praise. I'm thrilled to see such phenomenal talent showcased in this context, and I eagerly await more extraordinary achievements in the future.
  17. @yelobeli Both Coventry and Luton have shown that building a strong foundation in League Two before moving up to League One is a successful strategy. For Notts County, it's crucial to follow a similar path if they are to establish themselves as a decent League One team. However, to do that, the club needs to sell around 6-7000 season tickets, a task that seems achievable this season given the club's recent success. It's important to avoid overspending to stay in a league, as it can lead to short-term success but long-term financial issues. Instead, Notts County needs to build thoughtfully and strategically, investing in player recruitment and development, and building a strong squad that can compete year after year. If the club continues to follow this path, I have no doubt that Notts will continue to rise through the ranks of the football league.
  18. Aaron Nemane put on a top-class performance against Chesterfield at Wembley, proving to be by far the best player on the pitch. His dribbling skills and pace were simply exceptional, leaving the opposition's defence struggling to keep up with him throughout the game. Watching him run at their defence was a joy to behold, and it was clear to see the impact he had on the game. Nemane's ability to take on defenders and break through their lines made him a constant threat and kept the crowd on the edge of their seats. To put it simply, Nemane was class on the day, and his performance was crucial in securing the win in what was a tense game. We look forward to seeing him play in more games and continue to show us what he's capable of.
  19. It's refreshing to read about footballers who remain grounded no matter what level they play at, and Macaulay Langstaff is a perfect example of this. Despite having the talent and potential to play at higher levels, he's committed to Notts right now and that's something to admire. Langstaff seems to remember his roots and has a strong work ethic, traits that are crucial for success in any field. If he continues to work hard, there's no reason why he can't play higher up. It's great to see young footballers like Langstaff setting an example for others, proving that humility and persistence can take you a long way in life.
  20. Jodi Jones is an intelligent footballer who seems to be very switched on whenever he's on the pitch. I had the pleasure of watching him play in the playoff final on TV, and he was nothing short of a game-changer. He's very confident in his ability and natural on the ball, traits that make him stand out from other attackers. Jones has a habit of taking on defenders and making things happen, and his ability to create chances out of nothing is a testament to his footballing intelligence. When he gets going, he's very exciting to watch and has a knack for lighting up the pitch. It's clear to see why he's rated as one of the brightest talents in the game today. Jones has a bright future ahead of him, and I'm looking forward to seeing him continue to shine in the years to come.
  21. It's not often that you come across a midfielder who can make a real difference on the pitch, but Matt Palmer is one such player. He has all the attributes of a top-quality midfielder - focused, determined, and a leader on the ball. Palmer seems to be the difference between winning and losing, and his contribution is often what sets his team apart. His technical skills are matched by his tactical awareness, and he's equally adept at defense as he is in attacking. It's no wonder that Palmer is the type of midfielder every club wants in their squad. It will be interesting to see how his career progresses over the years, but there's no doubt that he has the potential to go on to achieve great things in football.
  22. Johnny Forte was always a favourite among fans for his uncanny ability to score goals. It was a surprise to many when Kevin Nolan made the mistake of not giving him more playing time. Forte's performances on the pitch were always top-notch and it's a shame the reason for his lack of appearances was never made public. Some speculate that there may have been behind-the-scenes disagreements or other factors at play, but we may never know for sure. Regardless, Notts County could have definitely benefited from Forte's inclusion in the team and it's a missed opportunity that may haunt the club for some time to come.
  23. @ARLukomski I hope you understand how important your vlogs are to fans like myself. Since becoming a member of the Pride of Nottingham, I eagerly anticipate each new video. Despite being unwell lately, your videos have been a beacon of light and my only window into what regulars can see. Your hard work is both noticed and appreciated. Thank you for all your efforts, particularly this season. I am grateful to be able to relive the Wembley experience through your perspective and analysis.
  24. The owners of our club are fantastic. I hope they have the capability to continue bringing success to Notts. It would be gratifying if this journey was just the start and by the end of it we might possibly be a Championship outfit.
  25. The gallery is impressive. It was fascinating to see the Faces of PON.
