    Carl Muggleton was our goalkeeper coach after he retired from football.

    Much of the fun in anticipating the upcoming football season comes from discussions such as this one. The range of teams and players being analysed serves as a thrilling preliminary guide to expectations revolving around the League Two scenarios. The implicit and explicit factors influencing games and points gathered are multitudinous, and it's fascinating how these can be manipulated or capitalised upon by different teams. For instance, the heavy investment in playing budget by Gillingham, this could be a strategic move that catapults them into a favourable position in the standings. Alternatively, it may prove to be an overcompensation that doesn't yield the expected returns.

    Though there's much speculation about Oldham and Chesterfield battling it out for the title, I think we're underestimating Boreham Wood here. They've shown resilience and the ability to surprise, and they might just stir the pot this season. Furthermore, looking at scouting and player development, Boreham seems to be doing it right, which may tip the balance in their favour. Chesterfield has shown plenty of promise, and they're probably expected to be in the title race. But Oldham still being included in that equation is a bit of a head-scratcher. They need to improve their performance dramatically and consistently if they want to get anywhere near the title race.

    Donating proceeds to the Jason Turner fund shows an admirable sense of unity in the football community. It's gestures like this that put forth the true essence of sports, competing but caring at the same time. Congratulations, Stoke City. You're an inspiration!

    Langstaff really provides us fans with some insight into what’s happening behind the scenes. I appreciate his involvement, it's comforting to see he’s as invested in the upcoming season as we are.

    Well deserved! Congratulations to Dan Leivers and the entire team.

    I’m not sure we’ll hit 6,000 at the higher prices, but who knows? It would be nice. I think 5,800 is quite likely or just a bit under this figure.

    I think Andy Dallas will join a League Two team. Oldham fans are probably smoking something because there’s little reason for him to spend another season in the National League when Grimsby and Gillingham, etc., are looking to sign him. It’s hardly the situation we found ourselves in with Macaulay Langstaff. Dallas needs to avoid taking a step back, so I think joining a higher-up club would pay off for him.

    Family is everything, isn’t it, @super_ram? It’s really nice of you to help and provide @cheeky~k8 with what she needs. I hope karma comes back to you and brings you the happiness you deserve

    I too believe that the team has a good chance to start the season with a win against Sutton United. Their lack of significant victories towards the end of the last season makes this a great opportunity for Notts County to get off to a positive start. I'm particularly interested in the home game against Grimsby Town and how it pans out. Seeing how they ended our last season, the anticipation is indeed high, and I believe that Notts County won't disappoint

    Hello, @BigTom91. Welcome to PON. It's nice to have you on board.

    Hello, welcome to PON @JackMagpie95. Good to have you on board.

    It looks like Aidan Stone will be considered for the backup position over Tiernan Brooks. A loan move makes sense. I have my fingers crossed that he’ll gain some much-needed experience, but despite not having seen Stone, I think Brooks has a huge amount of potential.

    There have been many changes before the high street did. Local shops were all over, and supermarkets/department stores ran those out of business. I can’t say I personally miss many of the stores that have fallen, but I do think a simpler time was better.

    I wish Neal Ardley all the best. Hopefully, it’s nothing personal, and he has just decided to take time off rather than leaving to join a new club or due to other personal issues.
  16. Countyman
    The signing makes sense, but one would hope he’s ready to step in and perform well, especially if his confidence was knocked at Port Vale. Our fans won’t take kindly to the occasional mistake; we can be very critical. I believe fans wanted someone who could easily fit in if Sam Slocombe became injured or was in poor form. Nonetheless, it’s a decent signing.

    Hello, welcome to the PON site @NottsCountyKev.

    The away kit is just as important as the home kit. It symbolises where we’re from and brings that spirit to away matches. It is essential that the away kit feels special and unique, so that fans can wear it with pride when supporting the team on the road. By incorporating elements of our team’s history and identity into the design of the away kit, we can create a kit that truly represents who we are and where we come from.

    Quite a balanced set of fixtures, but even if it wasn’t, there’s not much that can be done about it. You have to just get on with them and hope the squad is prepared enough to pick up the points to make a good start or pick them up eventually enough to do well.
  20. Countyman
    Good opening draw; no complaints. I look forward to seeing our squad take them on.
  21. Countyman
    When he signed, I was quite excited to see what he could do. He obviously has something about him, but if he's not playing, it's hard for him to make an impact. Fingers crossed he gets a chance soon.
  22. Countyman
    I voted for Jodi Jones because I do think he will be the player that makes the biggest impact of all the signings. We know what he brings and that suits us well. The three other players will need to work hard to establish themselves and to get to a level where they know the players as well as Jodi. He’s a massive signing for Notts!
  23. Countyman
    No promotion celebrations, there’s the decision to have it later in the year. They seem to be waiting, and now the club says no? What is this, an episode of Little Britain?
  24. Countyman
    Hearing about these managerial sackings makes me wonder how much job security there truly is in the world of football. It must be incredibly stressful to always be wondering if you're on the chopping block.
  25. Countyman
    I must say, I'm really pleased with the acquisition of Dan Crowley. He has the potential to become a key player for us, and I can't wait to see how he develops throughout the season.
