  1. Hello, it's nice to see you @JC1966.
  2. It’s the best performance so far this season. In the first half, Notts were class. They were very determined to win, and when McGoldrick scored, there was little point in going all-in for a second. The movement just allowed the game to open up and, to be fair, plenty of chances came. In the second half, there was a surge in play and domination by us. I am very happy with the win.

  4. It's a hard truth in football that any error, no matter how seemingly insignificant, can drastically affect the outcome of a match. The fact he's highlighting this shows his meticulous attention to detail, aimed towards perfecting their game dynamics. His stance on prioritising victory over style of play resonates with pragmatism. Football is, after all, a results-based business, isn't it? His intention to win on merit, by creating enough chances whilst constricting the opposition, is commendable.
  5. I am pleased Jodi Jones ended up being credited for his goal. It’s something that seems unimportant, but for a player to have goals to their name can be something that helps get the most out of them.
  6. I fear Southend will be the next team to fade and die. I really hope it’s not the case, and I wish them all the very best.
  7. Morecambe should be docked points instead of being given time to overcome the issue. I sympathise with them; it’s awful, but at the end of the day, if their owner isn’t willing to pay the players’ wages, they must be docked points. I don’t get the logic that owners have when they lose interest. The more damage they do, the less likely they are to get a good amount of money back for the club. They will never get their full investment back.
  8. I like Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em. The character of Frank Spencer is someone most people can relate to. We have all met a ‘Frank’, who may not be over-exaggerated, but the similarities are there. It’s one of the sitcoms I could easily re-enjoy rewatching. A lot of the stunts Michael Crawford did are exactly what makes it timeless. It’s a very funny and well-written show.
  9. It’s going to be a good match, that much is certain. I can’t envision Notts playing in any manner that Luke Williams wouldn’t approve of. Tranmere may be struggling, but I suspect they will rise to the occasion when playing us on Saturday. If they cause any scares, that will be another story, but I believe Notts will give them trouble.
  10. Hello, welcome to the community and PON @Sir Magpie.
  11. Hello, welcome to the community and PON. @NorthPie
  12. Joss Labadie also played for Tranmere Rovers.
  13. This photograph is exceptional, quite possibly depicting one of the most notable Notts squads. While we've witnessed numerous exceptional players, this image encapsulates a true team.
  14. Dave demonstrates excellence; his attire and demeanour leave a positive impression. He possesses a warm-hearted disposition and executes his responsibilities admirably.
  15. He exhibited proficiency in ball handling, neatly concluding his goal and contributing significantly through his hard work. I would need to witness his performance on several more occasions before I could confidently assess his capabilities. Nonetheless, amidst their struggling squad, he managed to stand out.
  16. I believe Red Bull constitutes a concern for football clubs. They inject funds into teams as a method to enhance their profile and accumulate assets. I fail to comprehend their interest in acquiring a team in Brazil. The narrative is intriguing; unsurprisingly, it has sparked controversy. What is striking is its general acceptance. This situation will likely undergo rapid transformation once their interest wanes.
  17. I'm glad to see Langstaff acknowledging the role of the fans, their support is as vital to the team's success as the players on the pitch. The team's optimism and spirit will surely see us through the season.
  18. It's great to see Luke Williams supporting his players and focusing on their improvement rather than dwelling on mistakes. Positive reinforcement goes a long way in building confidence.
  19. The optimism in our chants is mirrored in the team's dynamic performances on the field. Such unity is infectious and truly boosts the team's morale.
  20. I have read stories about Peterborough requesting bidders to put their money where their mouth is and suggestions that Wrexham will pay £500,000 for a forward who has only scored goals in the lower levels of English football. He has scored 8 goals on loan and 1 permanently, but has not scored any goals since leaving Chesterfield. Peterborough should cut their losses if they hope for more money because he is not worth it. He is a good player, but a one-trick pony and not effective at higher levels.
  21. I think it will be difficult for Doncaster Rovers playing at home, but the fans in attendance need to continue their amazing support. Those who moan and have already forgotten how far we have come in such a short time under the Reedtz brothers should do us a favour and stay at home on their computer or phone! The club does not need this while they are transitioning to the football league. Don’t get me wrong, I believe Notts could put together a fantastic display and win. I am just concerned that they will do whatever it takes to prevent us from creating the clear chances we need to score.
  22. Best of luck to Brad McGregor. He looked impressive in the pre-season games he played in, and I hope he succeeds during his loan.
  23. The idea of having live match discussions is a good one. It just needs to be promoted and for members to make an effort to participate. I will keep an eye out for them and try to contribute when I can.
  24. While Kyle Cameron could improve and avoid giving the ball away so easily, among other mistakes, I feel he is becoming a scapegoat. Some fans are demonstrating their disloyalty by singling him out. I can’t stand these people. They claim to value effort over ability, yet they criticise players who give 100% when their ability just needs a bit more support.
  25. Queens Park Rangers 2-0 Ipswich Town Sheffield Wednesday 1-1 Preston North End Cambridge United 0-2 Bristol Rovers Carlisle United 1-0 Exeter City Grimsby Town 0-0 Mansfield Town Sutton United 0-1 AFC Wimbledon Rochdale 1-3 Eastleigh Joker Wealdstone 2-0 AFC Fylde
