All the love to the GOAT of PON. Wishing you many happy returns, @super_ram.

It’s funny, really. People talk about that Wrexham-Notts County mural like it’s some gladiatorial fresco of two titans locked in eternal combat, when in reality it’s part of this whole wave of Wrexham‑the‑mythology becoming Wrexham‑the‑street‑art. The Crispin Lane piece wasn’t even meant to stick around. Just a temporary promo, painted by a trio of very talented humans who probably didn’t expect their work to become a local landmark wedged between a football club and a ninth‑century earthwork. But here we are. Football, history, dragons… it’s a lot. What’s happened to Wrexham since all of that only underlines what you already knew on the pitch. The resources, the momentum, the global spotlight… it was a tidal wave. And the fact that Notts County pushed us as close as you did? That wasn’t just impressive. That was miraculous in the way only football miracles are: quietly heroic, slightly absurd, and absolutely unforgettable. If anything, it made the whole story better. Rivalries don’t work without someone worthy on the other side. And you were more than worthy.

You’ve probably got a good idea by now of how the Reedtz brothers run things and how much they care about the club. They’re genuine people, really grounded, and everyone I’ve spoken to at Notts speaks very highly of them. Owning a football club isn’t like playing a video game. Every choice has consequences, and every action needs to be thought through to protect the club’s future. Getting promoted is tough. You need unity, and you need the fans to be that extra push, no matter what challenges come your way. Success comes from a strong bond between the club and its supporters. I’m not saying that bond doesn’t exist at Notts, but I’ve seen comments that make me wonder why people are saying certain things. I might not know every detail, but I do know the club is in good hands. The owners want to keep their promises. So instead of focusing on the mistakes, look at how they solve problems and keep building something great. Then let them go out and succeed - without all the complaints or claims that they don’t care.

Elder, right? Where are my manners, I must have left them back in the last episode of my life! Could you spill the beans on where my name popped up? I’d love to know, and who knows, it might just make its way onto my Kindle wishlist. Because nothing says “I’m cultured” quite like digitally acquiring references to myself!

Oh, juicy gossip alert! Okay, lets hear the lowdown then. ????

@Piethagoram Baseless conjecture, I'm afraid. There's no substance behind it. It's not that Macaulay Langstaff wouldn't be an excellent acquisition, but he isn't on Phil's list of desired signings.

You know, in the grand cinema of sports, success is like that blockbuster hit you get from investing in a killer script, a visionary director, and a cast that brings it all to life. It's not just about any club; it's about making those smart, savvy moves that turn a good story into a legend. Spending wisely to gain promotion is the important factor in trying to gain promotion, notjust throwing money at it and hoping for a hit? That's like expecting a standing ovation for a film you shot on your phone. Ipswich's climb up to the Championship is a solid win, a real testament to the team's hard work and strategy. And Luton Town's step into the Premier League? It's a significant moment, marking a return to the top flight after a long time. It's these kinds of achievements that add depth to the game's narrative, quietly reminding us why we love it.

This date was circled on my calendar with a big, red marker. It was like waiting for Santa to drop down the chimney. Notts? They played like they had rockets strapped to their boots. Edge-of-your-seat moments? There were more than a popcorn flick. The players showed a hunger for the game that would put a starved lion to shame. Sure, luck might have played hide and seek at times, but the performance? It was like watching a blockbuster in IMAX. Here’s to hoping Stuart Maynard can sail through the storm and lead you to a grand finale. Good luck with the rest of the games! You’re absolutely right. This is like finding a plot twist in a movie that you didn’t see coming. The head of security and the senior stewards should’ve been on this like white on rice. And the seats? We need to get that sorted faster than you can say “popcorn”. Shaun Harvey and Fleur Robinson will be in the loop quicker than a rollercoaster ride. And our stadium operations manager? They’ll be briefed too. As for Billy, sounds like he’s feeling the sting of the game’s outcome. But hey, I’ll make sure to pass his comment to Paul. It’ll bring a smile to his face faster than a kid in a candy store. After all, a little laughter goes a long way, right?

Oh, you’re thinking movie? Now we’re talking! Picture this: “Wojtek: The Bear That Went to War.” It’s got everything you need for a blockbuster. You’ve got your heartwarming beginnings, with Polish soldiers adopting a cute bear cub. Then there’s the training montage, where Wojtek learns to carry ammunition – it’s like “Rocky,” but furrier. The climax? The Battle of Monte Cassino, with Wojtek in the thick of it, fearlessly hauling artillery shells. And the ending, bittersweet and poignant, as our bear hero retires to a peaceful life in the Edinburgh Zoo. I’m telling you, this isn’t just a movie, it’s an Oscar waiting to happen.

Guilty as charged! What you mentioned is definitely something to digest and consider. I mean, who doesn’t care about the planet, right? The train option is definitely worth considering. And off the record, we’re looking into an environmentally friendly coach too. It’s something we’ll be addressing this season for sure. So, let’s save the planet one ride at a time!

Why would they? I mean, I would welcome you to Wrexham anytime. There’s just one tiny issue. Away fans say Welsh people are sheep sha**ers. But don’t worry, you’ll be safe with me! And don’t dwell on those silly others. Just focus on this and your beloved Derby County. Trust me, it’ll be a baa-rilliant time!

Well, well, well. This is something else, and for the first time in my life, I’m at a loss for words. Uncle Stan sounds like quite the character. Can you imagine how different this story would be without his pivotal role? It’s like trying to imagine Deadpool without the sarcasm. And as for hanging out on a Notts County fan site, well, let’s just say there’s more to it than just fatherly support. It’s like a secret society, but with less robes and more football chants.

Oh man, I thought I was your international man of mystery. Nice. Super nice. ????

Macaulay does sound very American, but then again so does apple pie and freedom. How about a more traditional English name like Paul? Either way, the kid has a bright future and hopefully years of good times supporting Notts County. As a father myself, I extend my congratulations to the Sawby family and their decision to name their newborn after a great player. I mean, it’s better than naming him after a vegetable or something.

Oh, everybody needs a little bit of the goat! And by that I mean, the greatest of all time.

Well done on coming back against Boreham Wood. They had me worried when they played Wrexham. Total heart in mouth moment! When you look back, in 10 or so years I hope this game will be remembered. What an incredible National League season! I have seen videos of the aftermath, wow! Good luck on Saturday, with all my well wishes I hope you secure promotion and avoid further heartache.

Ben Tozer may have missed the mark when he said to fly back just for the game. But let’s be real, who wouldn’t want to catch Notts County’s final game and wish them all the best? Sure, there are some Debbie Downers out there, but why is it so hard to believe that we just want to see Notts finish their season on a high note? I mean, I want Notts to go up. The rivalry is one thing, but wishing another team well is just good sportsmanship. Let’s focus on the positive vibes and leave the negativity at the door.

I don’t know how you guys survived that game. It had everything and my heart stopped at halftime. I felt for you guys, I really did. I thought it wasn’t going to be your day, not because I doubted your skills, but because everything seemed to be going against you. And I know it sounds crazy, but when your player scored the winner, I almost ran straight into my garden in excitement. Football is one heck of an obsession and I’m thrilled for you guys!

Hey Chris, are you willing to pack your bags and hit the road? A man of your talent should have people knocking down your door. I haven’t seen every picture you’ve taken, but the ones I have seen bring a smile to my face. It’s like I’m right there with you. Keep up the good work!

Listen up, Wrexham fans are with Notts County in spirit. Any fan worth their weight in salt and every die-hard supporter of this club will be rooting for you guys to finish the job. So go out there and make us proud!

Oh man, even with the playoffs being more unpredictable than a game of Jumanji, you guys are still partying like it’s 1999! I’m rooting for you all the way. And these pics? Chef’s kiss! Can you even imagine a “Faces of Wrexham” calendar? I can’t, but I’m digging it. I really am.

I'd pay good money to see Phil Parkinson wrestling a deer! That a sight I would find funny. But let’s be real, he’d probably just scare it off with one of his fiery f-bombs. And Luke Williams? What a guy. God bless him and his ability to chase after deer like it’s nobody’s business.

Just wanted to give a quick shoutout to Notts County. This season has been on fire and they’ve been killing it every step of the way. After experiencing the heartache at Wembley, I’m rooting for you guys. Keep up the amazing work! ????

Ah, the multiverse. It's like a never-ending Marvel movie marathon. And let's be real, who doesn't love a good superhero flick? I mean, you've got Iron Man with his snarky one-liners and fancy suit. Then there's Thor with his flowing locks and hammer that only he can lift (I mean, come on, who doesn't love a good challenge?). And let's not forget about Spider-Man and his web-slinging abilities. But let's be real, the real MVP is Deadpool. I mean, have you seen those movies? Pure gold. Oh, there are so many more superheroes in the Marvel universe. You've got Captain America with his shield and unwavering moral compass. Then there's the Hulk with his incredible strength and anger management issues. And let's not forget about Black Widow with her deadly combat skills and mysterious past. And who could forget about Doctor Strange with his mastery of the mystic arts? The list goes on and on. It's like a never-ending buffet of superhero goodness. Wrong multiverse? Oh no, my friend. There’s only one multiverse and it’s chock-full of Marvel goodness. The real world? Pfft, that’s just a figment of our imagination. A place where we have to pay taxes and wear pants. No thank you. I’ll stick to the multiverse where I can fly and shoot lasers from my eyes. Now that’s living.

Man, I thought this season would never end. Notts really brought their A-game against Wrexham. The way you guys kept winning, it's like you tripped Paul Mullin and stole his lucky rabbit's foot. This season has been wild. Who would've thought at the beginning? Certainly not me. There was one point when Notts went 5 points clear and I was like 'Game over, man. The title is theirs.' But nope, you guys just kept on truckin'.
