  1. I think it’s more unlikely than likely to happen. I think we would be looking for someone who can be more hands-on and without other commitments to businesses. I don’t think the club will have rushed their process; I think it’s one of those decisions that will take more time.
  2. I am your 10th blog follower; @TheSkipper. I will look out for your entries and make sure that I take a moment to leave you a comment.
  3. Until I watched this, I didn’t know that he had started with Spurs or had even played for Portsmouth twice. He was a good player for his size; he had the skill of someone much more nimble, but it just goes to show that size won’t always hold you back. I thought Peter would have scored more goals with his head during his career, given his size, but it shows that he had great natural striking ability.
  4. I think it’s about time the club showed us the full shirt. There’s a rumoured one going around on social media which might be it, but I think it’s important for the club to reveal them now. I think it’s unfair for them to expect us to wait until closer to when Puma will deliver them; drumming up interest now might make people more open to buying them in advance.
  5. I don’t know; I think it might not be happening, but I wouldn’t be against Brooks going out on loan.
  6. Frank Vincent is a very good player, just not quite good enough for our squad. I think he should do well for Dagenham & Redbridge.
  7. This is such an emotional moment for our fans. Having seen Notts County's ups and downs of the last few years have been brutal. Our incredible supporters, players, and the Reedz brothers' leadership have all contributed to us finally achieving our goal of returning to the Football League! It's not just a promotion; it's a testament to our collective spirit and resilience.
  8. I think it’s great news. I most certainly thought he was on his way out of the club. His signature on a two-year deal gives us that final boost going into the season.
  9. Hello, @BigTom91. It's great to have you on PON, we are a very friendly community and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. See you around the site.
  10. Williams seems to have a clear vision for developing our squad; reinforcing the team with new signings whilst having to deal with inevitable departures. David McGoldrick, with his "incredible quality", is a player that sounds promising for our future performances. At the same time, it's a bitter pill to swallow regarding Rodrigues' departure. But it's heartening to see Williams' balanced outlook, acknowledging the player’s personal growth and the opportunity Rodrigues has to express himself at a higher level. It reflects the healthy sportsmanship present in the club - accepting the constant change that happens within football.
  11. I'm over the moon with Nemane signing on for another two years. This is a player who's shown his worth this season. His contributions on both ends of the field and his knack for creating scoring opportunities have made him a vital part of the squad. His agility and speed also make matches dynamic and engaging to follow. Coupled with this, his positive presence in the locker room tells you how much of a team player he really is. His love for the game and the club is clearly visible in his performances, and it's brilliant that we've managed to secure his services for another two years. Looking forward to more thrilling performances from him.
  12. I think some fans are expecting us to compete with Wrexham, but I don’t know how that’s logical or a reasonable comparison considering their owners and interest. I don’t think sales will move much higher myself; the majority of fans will have renewed and signed up for the new season by now. I think it’ll be stragglers and lower ticket prices that stand a chance of increasing sales, rather than full adults. Nonetheless, it’s great to have already sold 5k’s worth!
  13. Next season, I hope the club tries to move this forward. If Puma is unwilling to meet an earlier deadline, then they shouldn’t be our kit supplier and signing the new deal will have been a mistake. I don’t want to come across as if I’m moaning, but I don’t think it reflects well on Puma or Notts to just continue accepting it. The season when we had delays with the shipment of new stock was bad enough, but nothing changes and I completely understand the disappointment.
  14. Matty Palmer's impact on the team goes beyond statistics. He brings leadership and stability to the midfield, since arriving at the club he's been brilliant.
  15. I think building a collection would be a fun thing to do. I have seen videos where people do it, and ones where many of them come from blind boxes. If you’re serious about collecting England shirts, then you need to see if anyone has any going or is interested in swapping.
  16. Welcome to the Pride of Nottingham, I hope you settle in and have fun @NottsCountyKev.
  17. My parents own a caravan in Skegness, so they took me there again for the weekend. On the first day, we went to a pub in Ingoldmells called The Ship. My mum looked around the shops and I made my way down to near Fantasy Island. I went into a few of the arcades. Then we went into Skegness itself and went onto the beach. It wasn’t that bad there - we did get a bit of rain and thunder. On Sunday, we went for something to eat at the Lumley pub. I went into the pier arcade, went on two-pence pushers and a few machines. We walked around the lake, then had fish and chips before we went home.
  18. I haven’t seen it yet, but it sounds interesting and mysterious. I wasn’t keen on “Lost” when I saw the reruns, but I’ve never watched it completely back to back. I’ll keep an eye on this and try to catch From.
  19. It was a very good interview by Charlie Slater, with many positives and interesting comments. It’s nice to see some different questions being put to David McGoldrick, who does well to answer them.
  20. I like horror films myself. I don’t like those like Annabelle, but I do like Scream and I think they’ve done well to revive the franchise. I’m keen to see how that plays out. I like things like the first two Ghostbusters - the women’s one and the newer one didn’t feel like the originals and that makes me less interested. I might watch some of the films mentioned and give my thoughts on them as I’m sure I could see more that I haven’t before.
  21. His family must have a lot of history within the club. I hope his father passed on accounts of what it was like when Notts played at Trent Bridge and then Meadow Lane when it became our new home. That would be something! It's good to read about various fans' backgrounds, as everyone has their own tale and I think this one shows that our fans do put the club first and foremost, which is an incredible gesture. Having found his partner while supporting Notts is another interesting thing. It stops the rivalry and chance that immediate family won't be fans. Notts has a rich history, so things like this are great to read about. I hope Nigel takes up @CliftonMagpie suggestion - he seems a good fit.
  22. I’m not that fussed, provided it looks like a Notts shirt and doesn’t have any distracting or ugly patterns on it. Some of the shirts released by kit suppliers can be nasty. I get the idea, but they go overkill with the design. A nice patterned away shirt and a traditional home shirt would be nice.
  23. Their Chairman Darryl Eales said Ardley’s departure was “amicable”. The statement on the website reads better than the social media post announcing his departure. Maybe it’s personal reasons why he has asked to quit. I don’t want to speculate further because everyone deserves privacy. I just don’t think it’s due to him wanting a different job.
  24. I use Chrome on both my phone and laptop. It has become the standard these days and I don’t think other browsers make much of a difference. I used to use Firefox on my laptop when the speed difference was noticeable, but I like having everything synced. It makes it super useful to do things when I’m not at home.
  25. I think Crowley's key attributes as a player, such as getting on the ball, creating chances, and dribbling at people, will be really valuable for Notts County. Those are the kind of skills that can break down defenses and create scoring opportunities.
