Match Discussion: FC Kaiserslautern v Notts.
When we donβt have the ball, they get more players behind it and stay well organised. You can tell FC Kaiserslautern are a strong side. Notts, on the other hand, look all over the place. Weβre making simple errors and playing in a rush. They can defend with just three players and still look solid. Notts canβt do that, and even when weβve got numbers back, our players seem more focused on watching the ball than trying to win it back.

Match Discussion: FC Kaiserslautern v Notts.
Three central defenders really doesnβt suit the way our opponents are set up. The gap in quality and the amount of space theyβre able to work with makes it feel like weβre a couple of players short. Itβs almost like weβre playing with seven men. I donβt think itβs a system we should be sticking with. Even though I know itβs likely the plan for the league, switching the formation makes more sense. At the moment, itβs less about defending properly and more like weβre being pulled apart and completely outnumbered at the back.

Whew! It's not MK !
Barnsley feels like a bit of an odd choice when you think about the other clubs nearby he couldβve joined. Itβs not the most obvious move, considering he had options closer to Nottingham. That said, they do look strong and could be one of the sides pushing for promotion. Still, Iβm surprised Derby County didnβt make an effort to bring him back. It seemed like a chance they mightβve taken.

Heatwave 3
Iβd only just started to enjoy the warm weather without feeling like I was melting, and now another heat waveβs rolled in. Typical British weather, if weβre not under grey skies, weβre moaning about the sunshine.

Martin Paterson mic'd up.
Martin Paterson came across really well in the video. He seems keen to push the idea of putting in effort rather than dwelling on mistakes. Staying focused and giving it another go could lift spirits, instead of letting past errors sit in the back of your mind.

Would you feature James Sanderson in the First Team?
The club has talked about wanting to head in this direction, and it was something the Reedtz brothers pointed out when they took over. Still, we havenβt really pushed forward, even with the excellent work coming from the academy. When you see someone like James Sanderson close to making the first team, you want him to get that chance and do well. Weβre not far off from seeing a young player slowly break into the starting line-up. Fans do need to be patient though. The manager has to be bold and trust that giving youth a chance will pay off. The club also has to present the player well so supporters can get behind them. Having someone go from the academy to the pro team shows thereβs a proper route. More League Two clubs should be doing the same, not just Notts.

Football Regulator
Politicians will usually back something like this because theyβd rather not have football issues popping up in Parliament all the time. It helps them move the focus elsewhere. This is a positive step forward, but itβll probably take about ten years before it really makes a difference. Change in football tends to move slowly, especially when money is involved. Some clubs have been throwing cash around for years. Teams like Manchester United still carry massive debts, yet somehow keep spending like itβs nothing. Itβs a cycle that needs fixing.

New shirt
I do like the design, but it's not really something I'd wear myself. I think it will be quite popular though, and most of the comments I've seen on social media have been positive. The white part might have looked better in a golden yellow. It doesnβt quite feel like Notts, but I get that it's based on Nottingham University, so that makes some sense.

New signing Barry Cotter
He looks like a good signing and seems keen to play every week. That attitude should help push him to perform well and work hard to keep his spot in the first team. I like how the club has been shaping the squad so far. Iβd really like to see someone come in to replace Didzy and also bring in a new keeper after Bass, but Iβm sure thatβll happen in time. Barry Cotter looks a great addition, even on a loan deal. Heβs played for Barnsley and has League One experience, which should be a big help.

The German teams will be a tough test, offering a different way of playing. I think Martin Paterson will take a lot from these games and find them useful as he prepares for the season. I donβt pay too much attention to the results in friendlies. Itβs more about what the team can learn and how each player performs. It helps show whoβs sharp and ready for the start of the season. The squad should enjoy the challenge. Playing against strong teams like these should be a good experience for everyone involved.

Trouble at Morecambe FC again
Wishing Morecambe the best. Fingers crossed they get the sale sorted and nothing gets in the way of the clubβs future. It might be tough for them to climb back up, we know that struggle all too well, but a proper takeover could at least stop the slide.

Ricardo returns to AS Trencin
Ricardo Moniz seems like he still has something to prove. Out of all the managers and head coaches we've seen over the years, he stands out as one of the most active and driven. Hopefully, this time things go right for him.

Poetic Pies
What a brilliant piece! It captures the whirlwind of changes with real heart and humour. From Maynard and Didzy moving on to fresh faces like Paterson and Kelly stepping in, youβve painted the scene perfectly. That final reminder, βweβ are all one team, really brings it home. No matter the upheaval, weβre Notts through and through.

Welcome BridgyPie
@BridgyPie, Thatβs a brilliant memory to have! Walking the team out at Wembley mustβve been unreal! The Anglo-Italian Cup had some proper Notts players as well. I totally get stepping away from the usual socials. Itβs refreshing to find a place like this with a better vibe and a real sense of community. Glad to have you here! Hope youβre enjoying things in the Kop with the family.

Announcement: Updates on upgrades and further site work - 3rd July
I find it hard to understand how anyone couldnβt value the effort people put in to make PON such a special place. Itβs brilliant to see, and Iβm really grateful for the time I spent as part of the team. Working together to improve the site gave me a real sense of unity. It was a positive experience, and I enjoyed being part of it. Some people may go unnoticed, and others might feel underappreciated at times. But I believe the gaffer sees and values all the hard work that goes into keeping things going. Thanks to every subscriber, and to @Michael D Pie.. Iβm sure youβre all helping to make a big difference and keeping the site going strong.

Alfreton
I liked his interview, and I think he can get more fans on his side. Itβs nice to hear him talk about improving the team. I did like how honest he was, but some experienced coaches know itβs better to talk about the good stuff in public and deal with the problems quietly behind the scenes. Itβs still really early days, and I think the squad are starting to believe in him. Itβs just that sometimes, when you say something a bit too honest, it might get used against you later. Like what he said about Lewis Macari. It was a fresh take, but Macari had scored a tough, messy goal. That kind of goal mightβve helped win some fans over, especially since a lot of people were complaining we hadnβt scored.

Auf geht's Notts - a brief guide to Germany
If I were able to go, I think Iβd find this really helpful. Even so, itβs very interesting to read through, and I reckon it will make life a lot easier for fans who are travelling. Anyone heading out for the three-game tour in Germany would do well to take a proper look. It might even be worth printing it off and taking it along on the day.
