All the best with the job interview @CliftonMagpie routine is something we can't do without. It's instilled into us from day one, for me it's an important part of my life, couldn't function without it. Having routine really helps where mental health is concerned also, easing day to day woes and worries. That is one reason I am still working at 68, it gives me a purpose which in turn schedules the day in advance making everything routine.

As they say, you can only play the team that's in front of you. Last evening I think everyone was apprehensive regarding playing the Shrews. But have no fear we did what we had to do and allayed all our fears. I think we are now starting to see results that Martin is striving for, the fitness, players gelling with each other and the football getting close to the Notts County we know and love. Do not be mislead though it was far from perfect but definitely looking better. I think that Bromley will give a more accurate idea of where we are at this moment in time. Well done everyone for getting our chins off the floor and cheering voices up a notch. COYP.

Woke up this morning and looked out over the sea, it seemed so calm, as though all was at ease with the world. Hope is not always fulfilled I'm afraid to say, but for that minute it worked. Took my lovely wife to see one of her favourite singers yesterday evening, Friday. She totally emersed herself in the vocals of Olly Murs for 90 minutes. It's nice down here on the south coast, Sunny Margate is giving us the most.

The scores now arriving from mid shires are good and on time 😀 Preston North End 1-2 Leicester City Swansea City 2-2 Sheffield United Leyton Orient 3-0 Stockport County Reading 0-2 AFC Wimbledon Barnet 1-1 Walsall Tranmere Rovers 0-1 Gillingham Aldershot 2-1 Boston United Hartlepool United 1-0 Braintree Town View and be amazed at the quality of guessing 😍 👌

Thursday, and what a beautiful, gentle morning it is this morning. The suns rays carefully caressing all as it meanders it's way through leaves and branches of the surrounding trees. A lovely light breeze carrying the cool of the day intermingled with the cacophony of early morning birdsong, what a great privilege to be alive and have the ability to hear, feel and smell one and all.

This was a game of two halves as they say, and in the first half we just went through the motions or so it seemed. I think it proved that Jodi is no number 10 and needs to get back to the position where he is devastating and can be more productive. As for most of the second half and after the 3 substitutions we played alot better, which has to be a positive moving forward. MP the onus is now on you, your players and your team of backroom staff to keep the momentum going into Saturdays game against Barrow. COYP.

🤔 totally confused. Think i must be thick. Sorry Chris.

I think all today's players need to have a good look at themselves and ask the question, did I leave all on the pitch today and therefore was i proud representing my club and the fans that turned out to watch a very poor performance. I know and understand it was our first league game at home this new season and that could and would make players nervous, but not for the whole match. Martin it's time for some tough love and putting one or two or maybe more players in the know regarding the fact of who they are playing for and the standard required.

What a beautiful morning here in the midshires, the sun is shining and we have a little breeze keeping all cool at the moment. At work again for the 5th day and still no vehicle so I can do my job?? Looks like another day in the office couped up and restricted. Although the nice walk home should compensate for that. Managed to get out for some lovely food last evening with Mrs P and number 2 son. I had Sweet potato, Leek and Cheddar cheese pie (cheese,onion and potato pie really) just poshed it up a little. I haven't had that since I was 10 years old and my Mum used to make it at least once a week and we had it with baked beans, happy days. 😃

A big welcome @Stevelatimer enjoy your time on the rollercoaster that is Notts County.

I would like to welcome you to PON @muskan761947 with open arms and a heart full of joy. Dive into the conversations, tomfoolery and never looks back.

Once again it's time to delve into the deepest depths of football wizardry. Here goes ⚽ 😄 Oxford United 3 - 1 Portsmouth Stoke City 0 - 2 Derby County Exeter City 1 - 2 Blackpool 🃏 Mansfield Town 1 - 2 Doncaster Rovers Gillingham 2 - 3 Walsall Oldham Athletic 1 - 0 Colchester United Tamworth 2 - 0 Scunthorpe United Wealdstone 2 - 1 Truro City Having come out of the trance and put the football sorcerer's hat back in the cupboard i can now breathe again. 🤣

What a good positive interview, filled with enough information to show that he is a genuine guy with a hunger for knowledge and a great understanding of what is needed to bring success to the club. He talks well and obviously has the backing of the brothers. All in all an interesting interview, both allowing us to meet and hear his message and hopefully understand his position and attributes.

There is no one bigger than the Club, and although Jatta is a reasonable goal scorer, he's not the problem. Greedy agents are nowadays ruining football and that is a crying shame. Surely the Club has realised the situation and have something in place to counteract that possibility. 🙏 Let's hope that over the next 4 games either someone steps up to the plate or is brought in to remedy our attacking deficiencies. ⚽️ 👌🤔
