  1. As Notts County approaches its 5,000th game, it appears that destiny has played a hand in the club’s promotion. This momentous occasion is a hallmark event for the club and deserves to be celebrated with all the pomp and circumstance befitting such an achievement. The club and its supporters should revel in this accomplishment and look forward to continued success in the future.
  2. It would be quite sneaky if you had chosen Frank Vincent, @CliftonMagpie. I’m waiting for your reply to see if that’s correct. If it’s not, could you give us another club to guess?
  3. Anywhere from 1st to 7th is a possibility for Notts. The team has shown that they can compete with the best, delivering outstanding performances on the field. With their talent and determination, they have a real chance of finishing in a strong position and securing a spot in the top seven.
  4. Forte was a brilliant player who made a huge impact on the pitch.
  5. I hope we can follow in Luton’s footsteps or find our own way back to League One. The club’s potential is much greater than League Two and even the National League. If we can stay the course and keep building, who knows what we can achieve?
  6. One of Matt Palmer's greatest strengths is his calm and composed demeanour on the pitch. As a midfielder, he consistently delivers what is required of him, making intelligent decisions and executing them with precision. Even in high-pressure situations, Palmer remains level-headed, allowing him to perform at his best in even the most challenging of games. His calmness and consistency make him a reliable and valuable player for Notts County.
  7. The Reedtz brothers have done an amazing job in turning the club around and leading us to promotion. Their praise for the team’s mental and physical fortitude is well-deserved.
  8. It truly emphasises the unique bond shared between Notts County and its fans. It’s wonderful to witness such a powerful connection between the team and its supporters.
  9. Every player on the pitch needs to bring their A-game for this match. Average or standard performances simply won’t suffice. All the players need to be at their very best and if they can dominate the game, that would be ideal. However, realistically speaking, achieving such a feat is going to be challenging. Personally, I believe that Notts County has what it takes to come out on top in this match. It would be particularly satisfying to see Macaulay Langstaff fire Notts to promotion with a stellar performance on the pitch.
  10. It was an unparalleled match, and Notts’ ability to bring it back to a draw was characteristic. I feared that penalties might be our downfall until Jodi Jones scored the winning goal.
  11. Luke Williams is spot on in his assessment that opportunities for Notts are at a premium, and this will be even more evident during the playoffs. However, I have faith that the team's quality will shine through and ultimately lead them to victory. I am eagerly anticipating the game. Come on Notts!
  12. Welcome NottsFan81! Is 81 the year you were born or just a lucky number?
  13. The game is between two teams who have had heart-breaking experiences when dealing with the National League playoffs. For this reason, I believe the game will be tense until one side starts to dictate the tempo. Being at Meadow Lane, we as fans need to keep off the players' backs and just be a vocal support even if the game is difficult. Our part is to encourage, theirs is to react positively to the play and get the job done. With all the talk of Wembley, it's natural to get ahead and I understand the excitement it brings but the main factor is not to underestimate Boreham Wood on the day. League form always tends to go out of the window in games like this and the Notts players have to make sure they put in a good performance, end the match on a high and keep the faith going into that final outcome, whether it be the final or further heartbreak. This squad has a lot of quality and resilience.
  14. Adam Chicksen has been a standout player for Notts this season. Despite a brief period where he appeared fatigued, he has been instrumental in their pursuit of the National League title. With his quick feet and ability to deliver a good cross, he is an entertaining player to watch. It’s great news that he’s been performing so well.
  15. Saturday’s match at Meadow Lane between Notts County and York City is sure to be a thrilling one. It’s been a fantastic season for Notts and it’s great to see them playing at their best. I hope they can keep up their momentum in this game and secure a win to top off their successful run. I have no doubt that the team will give it their all and put on a strong performance. The support of the fans will be key in helping Notts achieve their goals and I can’t wait to see everyone come together to cheer them on.
  16. I’m delighted to hear that Adam Chicksen has signed a new 2 year deal with Notts County. In my opinion, he’s been the best left/wing back that the club has had since Alan Sheehan.
  17. It was an excellent performance from start to finish, despite some slight wobbling around the 70-minute mark. However, the goals only added more excitement to the game. Jim O'Brien's incredible performance was well deserved. Although he had a few tough games, there was never any doubt about what he brings to the squad. I was a bit surprised to see Macaulay Langstaff on the bench, but I was pleased to see Cedwyn Scott start. After Scott scored, it proved to be a good decision. It was mentioned that Langstaff had a bug or something, but I do believe that Luke Williams has been reading PON and taking suggestions about resting players. The impressive win, even with certain key players out, demonstrates the team's spirit, teamwork, and dedication.
  18. Notts shouldn't worry or even think about Wrexham during the game, it has no bearing on how we need to play Maidstone United. I would hope that Luke Williams' comments after the last home win, make the players react in a way to say, "You know what? We are fighting for this club". I think that is what Williams is looking for, and hopefully, the players will put in a superb performance. We just need to see that two halves are played with as much determination to get the right result as possible.
  19. I'm eagerly anticipating the upcoming match against Wrexham. Both teams have a lot at stake, with automatic promotion to the Football League on the line. I expect the game to start off cautiously, with both teams feeling each other out and trying not to make any costly mistakes. However, chances will come for both teams and it wouldn't be surprising if the first half ends up goalless. The second half is where the game is likely to become more lively, and it's important that Notts County doesn't waste too much energy trying to force things to happen. Luke Williams will have undoubtedly made it clear to the team that retaining possession and frustrating Wrexham will be key to the game plan. If we can keep the ball and get their home support on their backs, it will benefit us greatly. I'm hoping for a hard-fought and entertaining game. It's going to be a tense affair, but I believe that if we stick to our game plan and play to our strengths, we have a good chance of coming out on top. Fingers crossed for a positive result!
  20. As long as the players don't do anything foolish, give their all, and manage to avoid losing, I will be extremely pleased! From where I stand, it doesn't look like the match will be too challenging.
  21. The game ended up being heavily one-sided. I'm not sure if Scunthorpe managed to take a shot on target, but they had the potential to cause a lot of problems for Mair. Unfortunately for them, he had very little to do. Our fans didn't seem to have many complaints, but if you were a Scunthorpe supporter, you might have been disappointed with the result.
  22. I thought Eastleigh played dirty, not sure how they kept 11 players on the pitch. I thought their manager got sent off, but it was someone else. Notts looked good and managed to score. I was worried after the penalty miss, but we still won!
  23. A difficult clash I expect with the recent form, Grimsby have gotten some good results as of late but have found it hard themselves against the better teams.
  24. Barnet have been poor, it could be another hammering if pushed. I could easily see it being a comfortable win.
