  1. I am devastated for Bajrami. He looked certain to feature more in the team, and at his age, he has a lot to offer. I hope he has a speedy and safe recovery.
  2. Great to see such grit coming from Notts! It was a real roller coaster, especially with the team going behind twice, but the lads showed some real steel out there. Williams seems to have instilled some solid mental toughness in the team - which is desperately needed in these conditions. Can't forget the stellar performance from Brindley; his work in the middle was genuinely a game-changer. Rawlinson had a few stumbles, but I'm sure he'll bounce back stronger.
  3. Defensively, there is room for improvement for Notts, but Richard Brindley did very well today and they showed great resilience to win the game. Conceding two goals is never ideal, but the way Notts County responded shows that they have the character and determination to overcome setbacks.

  6. It's clear that our team isn't taking the challenges of League Two lightly and is diligently working to raise their game. From what our skipper says, the intense preparation, combined with a resolve to face formidable competitors, paints an uplifting picture for the season. I feel the anticipation building for the first match, and can barely wait!
  7. I am absolutely thrilled about Cameron's optimism for this season. The top three position is a tall order, but with the unity, hard work and determination he’s talking about, it's not entirely impossible.
  8. Good read, this @Chris. I’m glad to see that coach Luke Williams is not intent on ‘completely ripping up everything’ from last season. There is a need for consistency as well as innovation, and in a new season, the understanding of what works and what needs improvement can make a significant difference. Williams is clearly doing a great job of striking that balance.
  9. I am excited about how Williams is using a blend of strategy and careful conditioning to prepare the team for the upcoming season. By handling the injuries carefully and ensuring the players don’t overwork, he's hitting the sweet spot between ambition and caution. I can see this approach giving them an edge over their League Two counterparts.
  10. Luke Williams is right in saying our team isn't at a top-tier level yet. However, I have faith that we have the capability and the grit to improve and ascend to levels we're aiming for. The season will truly be the test.
  11. As for loaning out both players, the issue is that Notts often sends young players to local clubs where they either do not receive much playing time or play at a level that does not provide them with any benefits. We need to maintain communication with them throughout their loan spells and provide our own feedback on their performances as a means of furthering their development.
  12. @Fozzy raises a valid point. While I am not particularly concerned, I do believe that there should be regulations in place to prevent any disadvantages. Ultimately, it is up to FIFA to make the decision, but they must take into account the opinions of female players.
  13. It is great to see David McGoldrick’s confidence and focus during the game. He knows the game well and has a lot of experience, which will help Notts play better in future games. McGoldrick is strong on the field and stays calm under pressure, showing he is a good player. He understands the game and wants to win, which will make us play with more energy. With McGoldrick on the team, Notts can expect to have fun in games.
  14. Rest in peace, Trevor Francis. He may be gone, but he won’t be forgotten.
  15. Barnsley are taking a bit of a gamble by signing Andy Dallas. He had one very good season in the National League and two average ones. The last time he was in the Football League, he struggled with the step up in quality. It’s good for Andy Dallas, as if it doesn’t work out, a League Two team will surely sign him. However, he was younger the last time and may have found his confidence in scoring goals. We’ll have to keep an eye on this one.
  16. Good result for Notts, as Macaulay Langstaff scored 3 goals before half-time. I wonder if those who were concerned about losing to Stoke and Forest now believe we will win the league?
  17. Welcome to PON, @George L! It's nice to have you here.
  18. Welcome to PON @Steveyward.
  19. Welcome to PON, what's it like having the KOP chant your username @JustLikeJuve?
  20. And Craig Westcarr played for them too.
  21. Absolutely delighted to see such a dominant performance from Notts County. Cedwyn Scott's conversion of that cross from O'Brien was nothing short of spectacular. It's always rewarding to see a match where we use our opportunities to our advantage and pull off victories. Looking forward to more performances and wins like this one!
  22. It’s good that nobody was hurt. I can’t understand how it could have happened in the first place, but there’s always someone mad out there.
  23. Joe Palmer, welcome to Meadow Lane. If you happen to come across fans’ opinions like mine while browsing, let me tell you that Notts isn’t just the world’s oldest professional football league club. We also have one of the most loyal fan bases in history and have weathered everything football has thrown at us. We’ve been there throughout. I hope you enjoy your time with the club.
  24. Joss Labadie should do well with them. It’s good to see him making a move to a local club near where he’s from. I wish him all the success with the club, as it would be nice to see them reach the playoffs and beat Chesterfield.
  25. The off-season is always a quiet time for me. I usually don’t do anything other than watch football, so things can become a bit boring without match days. However, after our win at Wembley, I felt like this time things went quickly. It might be because we’re all looking forward to the season instead of dreading it!
