A dream move for Hackford. I wish him all the best in League 1 for his new side. I do hope he does well for them & gets some game time but I wonder if he will be loaned out to another club.

At the end of the 2nd day's play, Notts are 189 for 2 wickets. Club Captain Hameed has made an unbeaten 103.

Somerset were bowled out after lunch for 438. At the tea break Notts had moved on to 78 for 1.

I think that the Notts side will be more physical than what they were under Williams & Maynard. I think we've already seen evidence of that in the pre season games. I've always wanted the Notts team to be more physical & tougher with their opponents. I think you have to be in league 2. We were bossed off the park by Wimbledon in both playoff semifinals & I am sure that must have had a big impression on the Notts powers that be. It could even have been one of the reasons that the Head Coach was changed & new coaching staff appointed, as well as bringing in tougher players.

It is not looking good for Morecambe, but even at this late stage there is still hope that the sale of the club can still go ahead.. If things do take a turn for the worse & the club in it's present form cannot be saved, I'm sure a phoenix club will arise for season 26/27. But let's hope upon hope that won't need to happen.

This is a sad state of affairs for this famous old Ground, that hosted matches for the 1966 World Cup & staged many famous FA Cup Semi Finals. BBC SportSheffield Wednesday: Hillsborough's North Stand closed by...The North Stand of Sheffield Wednesday's Hillsborough ground is closed by the city council because of concerns over its structural integrity.

Aaron Collins has arrived at MK Dons from Bolton for £800,000, It's a gross amount of money for the fourth tier. My opinion. There needs to be a transfer & wages cap in each Division.

A big welcome from me @Chedozie & welcome to our PON community.

I would love him back at Notts, but the way things are, I can't see our owners wanting to pay his level of wages. They couldn't agree terms with Didzy which would have been lower than what Macca gets now at Millwall.

It's Lunchtime. Good fightback by Notts in the morning session taking 4 wickets & restricting their opponents to 58 runs. Somerset are 396 for 8

Pity we never got to see how Tyler would perform if given the opportunity at Notts. Sometimes, if someone is given the opportunity, they seize it with both hands & become a fans favourite. I do hope he is given an opportunity at Bolton.

The Watney Cup. Big business sponsorship & Penalty Shootouts. It was actually very influential in changing football in this Country. Are these changes for the better? In my opinion, no, because the big six clubs plus the rest of the PL clubs make massive amounts of money from sponsorship deals The more popular the club, the more money that can be made. As for penalty shootouts. A definite no here too because penalty shootouts are a way of depriving smaller clubs of lucrative replays in cup competitions. It has also changed the game when it comes to finals that are now decided by penalty shootouts if their is no result after extra time. Some teams actually base their tactics on holding out for deciding a game by penalties. Penalty Shootouts have basically changed the professional game for the worse in my opinion.

Nice to see him get a hat trick & I'm pleased for him. We have to bear in mind that it was against National League opposition..

@menzinho I don't think we will see a pound for pound replacement for Crowley now. I think that Notts will be satisfied with the amount of cover they have in that position. Whether the cover in that position is as good as Crowley only time will tell. As far as replacing Didzy, how can you replace him with a similar amount of skill & experience without opening the chequebook? I think it will be very difficult. But I do expect Notts to recruit a striker before the transfer window closes.

It's Day two of the county Championship match between Nottinghamshire & Somerset, & Weather permitting, Somerset will resume this morning on 338-4 after 93.3 overs.

Wednesday Weather 4cast.

Nice post @Wheelbarrow repair man I don't think the following songs are minstral songs but they were sung by soldiers when facing battle or when marching to & from a battle. There were British folk songs that depicted British soldiering in the 18th Century, one being "Over the hills and far away" & another "Hey for the life of a soldier" In the American civil war the soldiers sang songs like "The Battle Cry of Freedom" & "War song of Dixie". There were scores of songs sung by soldiers in the civil war many to increase moral of the troops.

I was listening to Paul Mace on his vlog & he thought that Jodi might be more protected in the central attacking midfield role rather than be on the flanks. I think Jodi has the skill and talent to be a number 10. & I think that opponents will be very weary of him. I look forward to see if he can claim that spot as his own. If Jodi can fit into the number 10 role it does give Martin lots of options because Bennetts, & Luker can play in that role too as well as on the wing.

@menzinho I hope so too. There is going to be a big competition for first 11 places, that is for sure. I wonder if Sanderson & Reynolds will be sent out on loan?
