  1. When I first began watching football, there weren’t any substitutes. The teams were smaller, not like the large squads we see today. However, as the sport evolves, so do the rules. I believe this progression is logical. In my opinion, there should be a maximum of five skilled substitutes, and never more than that.
  2. He’s now part of the transfer group that includes Joel Taylor and Kairo Mitchell. Despite the fee paid, he didn’t deliver much or have any luck. It seems a bit unfair on Taylor, who appeared to be a good player but just couldn’t surpass Adam Chicksen. Will Randall didn’t live up to the expectations that accompanied his arrival.
  3. With two key players from Crawley’s team that won promotion, this signing should bring optimism. But I understand what others are saying. A similar situation could occur with Notts if/when we achieve promotion to League One. It’s part of football, but I wish Crawley all the best with their rebuilding efforts and take this moment to welcome Kellan Gordon to Notts.
  4. I’ve come to terms with Macaulay Langstaff’s departure and there’s no use dwelling on it. I wish him all the best and hope he scores frequently for Millwall. I hope their fans appreciate his contributions. Many players move on when the time is right, and it was his time. He’s accomplished more in his seasons here than some who have been around for many seasons.
  5. It will be interesting to see which trialists stand out against a League One team. The outcome and performance aren’t as important as gaining insights to ensure the squad is ready for the upcoming season. Doing well in friendlies is a bonus, but not a necessity.
  6. Eastleigh have secured a great signing with Richard Brindley. He’s expected to perform well for them.

  15. A hearty welcome to PON, @Up the Maggies. I trust you will find PON enjoyable and to your liking.
  16. The Pride of Nottingham is a splendid forum and site. A warm welcome to you, @BiggestPieInGlasgow.
  17. There’s no question that Connell Rawlinson gave his all each time he donned a Notts shirt. We will cherish the pleasant memories of his tenure here.
  18. The club has made the correct decision. Hopefully, Connell Rawlinson can find a suitable club to gain more playing time. He might join a National League team with promotion prospects, which could provide another thrilling journey. Whatever his choice, I wish him well.
  19. Switzerland adopted the correct strategy; they merely had to overcome the offside trap. Scotland relied on fortune and indeed found it with that serendipitous goal. Defensively, I believe the Scots performed poorly.
  20. Jodi Jones has recently revived his career following a less than ideal stint at Oxford United. He appears to be a sensible individual who recognises that taking pleasure in football significantly improves one’s performance. It would be rather unwise for the club to let go of Jodi Jones, as it’s improbable that he would desire a transfer to another team after rediscovering his passion for the sport here. The only exception might be if Coventry City showed interest in him once more, though that possibility seems quite remote.
  21. Alex Bass being signed by Notts County is quite the statement! The way he spoke about the club's atmosphere and potential has got me pumped for the new season. His experience at AFC Wimbledon will be essential, and it's great to see a player who's not just talented but also truly committed to his team's success. His calm demeanour as a goalkeeper, especially in crucial moments, will undoubtedly help the team. Really looking forward to his impact on the pitch!
  22. Alex Bass is an excellent acquisition. He’s a first-rate goalkeeper who could have a long future at Notts if he performs well. It’s time for a keeper to establish himself for the future. Sam Slocombe has been reliable with his experience, but it’s time to move forward.
  23. Certainly! Here are the simplified and restructured versions of your comments: It might be tough to move on the players who are up for transfer, but the team is shaping up nicely. With four goalkeepers, choices are limited, but the others have a chance to get back into the game if they put in the effort. It’s a long shot, but the arrival of new talent might just motivate them. Plus, it could make them more attractive to other clubs. I’m keen to see a new winger join us next.
  24. I remember Willie Carlin vividly. His determination and skills were second to none. He had an incredible ability to control the game and always seemed to be at the right place at the right time. His passing is a significant loss to those who had the privilege of watching him play. Rest easy, Willie.
  25. It's refreshing to see such positivity from Maynard. His approach to moving past the controversial goal shows great leadership.
