Sorry, I’m not very familiar with Peter Storrie or Neal Hook. I do know there used to be a bloke who sold pin badges, and the Trews took action against him. This could turn unnecessarily ugly. I don’t know if the Navi owns any space in front, but reporting or talking about it might not be the best idea. I feel it’s best to leave it to the club to handle. I’m not saying you would, but more the club. To outside eyes, it might look different. Leave the club to chase people selling unlicensed or fake merchandise.

Fleetwood Town did very well; they took their chances and were happy to wait for those chances to strike. I can’t help but feel Notts needs to be a bit like this in the games when it’s harder for them. The second half was a great display by Notts. It did feel like we left it a bit late to get back into it, and without the penalty, Fleetwood would have gone home very happy with their performance. It’s early days, but sometimes I just wish Notts would take a gamble when shooting and not rely on walking it in or crossing.

I am pleased for Jodi Jones; it’s well deserved. He’s been a massive asset to Notts, and I hope we hear news of his contract being renewed at some stage. He’s a great player at this level!

This is a very important game, early in our season. We’ve had two draws so far, and both league performances have been of a good standard. Losing to Grimsby would be disappointing, especially at home. We need to make it harder for teams to score against us at Meadow Lane. Hopefully, this will start to be put right. I think it’s a matter of Notts being much more clinical.

Fair play to anyone who can take something and sell it. It’s no different from market traders. The only issue I have is if people aren’t paying taxes or are doing other side hustles when they shouldn’t be. Otherwise, it’s just smart business.

It’s not official. I don’t believe any of the money goes directly towards Notts either.

Please send my well wishes to @AmericanPie. I hope you can update us from time to time. We are a very caring community, and we see him as one of our own.

I would hate for the defeat to cast any ugly shadows over our next league game on Sunday against Fleetwood Town. It’s typical of cup games to be a game of two halves. Yes, it’s frustrating to give away a 2-0 lead. We have much to learn from it and need to remember that the players still need time to adjust to the new signings. Pulling the game back ourselves shows we had spirit and didn’t just collapse. It’s very easy in football to fall apart when you concede 3 goals after leading for so long.

He’ll be League Two’s Vincent Kompany at this rate. He had a great debut. For me, he would have been my Man of the Match. I thought he worked hard, kept his head down and focused, moved the ball well, and looked to get involved where possible. His presence was very determined. I agree he did right by clearing the ball out and also by acknowledging his teammates.

Good insight from Stuart Maynard. The draw was a good result, and there is a lot to take from the game. I think Maynard got his ideas across, and the training seems to be working nicely towards getting the players to settle in together. Very pleased to see the defence acknowledged, but I do think the draw was the fair result.

I don’t want Notts to get carried away with chasing additional players for the sake of it. I doubt this will be the case, but I think the squad just needs a striker who is different from Jatta. Someone with a turn of speed, who can dribble the ball and finish chances by attacking from beyond the last defender.

Will Swan seems to have an eye for goal and looks capable of being moulded into a player that could thrive with our style of play. He did well with Mansfield, but I think the fact that Charlie McParland didn’t reply is simply because he’s employed by Mansfield. It wouldn’t be wise for him to speculate or comment without their acknowledgment. I do think @menzinho makes an interesting point. Mansfield are only thinking about the short term, and a lot of clubs do this. We have been guilty of this at times in the past. Luther Wildin and Colby Bishop have both proved themselves to be good players if they are played. For clubs that are constantly building and thinking about the future, opportunities like this potential move could open up the chance to make a solid signing.

Interesting information, @Wheelbarrow repair man. I have seen magpies attack each other. They also fight a lot with large crows, which can be unsettling to watch as they both seem to try to kill each other.

It took me countless times to log in to the mobile app. I never changed the details as they are automatically saved when I first entered them. I just persisted and eventually, I was hit with a welcome page and an option about my account. I do like the app. It’s much better than the website at the moment, even though it’s buggy. All this should have been tested with a small group of fans who are good with technology. Considering the site and apps are in use with other clubs, it makes you wonder why we’re having issues.

It was a good game. I thought Tranmere started lively and put our defence under some pressure, but we slowly grew into the game. It became clear that they wanted to break the play down with needless challenges that stopped our momentum. Notts looked bright but struggled with how Tranmere had set up. Both teams showed class when it came to defending. I wasn’t bored. In fact, I look forward to the potential of future away games.

Great player. I think he will be used more due to our current squad size. I have always wanted to see him start more games. He had to wait at the beginning of last season to make that happen, then unfortunately he got injured and missed a lot of the campaign. I hope he’s okay and ready to score goals for us as we push for promotion to League One.

I hope the squad performs well and Notts starts the season brightly. A good result could help fans warm to Stuart Maynard. We have the squad, and defensively we look better. It will be interesting to see our first proper run out.

I’m convinced that later in life, I won’t be able to afford to retire. So, by all means, please enjoy yours because it’s well-earned. With all this mayhem going on in the world, it’s best that you can enjoy retirement.

Don’t rub retirement in our faces. Work is exhausting, and it leaves me with little to talk about. I can’t wait for college to start again. ????

I’ve been meaning to do these more often. I wasn’t too concerned about the lack of interest or comments. For me, it’s something to build on.

Barrow 1-0 Crewe Alexandra Gillingham 2-1 Carlisle United (Joker) Harrogate Town 1-1 Bromley Salford City 3-1 Port Vale Altrincham 0-2 Woking Boston United 1-3 Rochdale Halifax Town 2-2 Barnet Southend United 2-0 York City

I think 10th is a realistic target, but I suspect many of their fans, just like ours, will be hoping for the play-offs. There’s always one team that starts strong at the beginning of the season, and this will be one of the most important games on the opening day. Two historic clubs, both big League Two teams. It should be a good game for sure.
