Your Thursday Weather 4cast

Your City finished in 2nd place in the National League. They amassed 96 points, scored 95 goals & won 29 games, but unfortunately for them they lost their playoff semi to Oldham 0:3. Their defeat, in a one off match, has resurrected once again, the debate on possibly allowing the top 2 teams to go up automatically from the National League & the 3rd place team going into a promotion playoff. What do PON members think. Is it time for 3 up from the national league, which could mean 3 teams being relegated from League 2?

There was a pool of water on the garden chair this morning. Wasn't expecting some rain last night but it was welcome nevertheless. It's was a beautiful start to the day again & at the moment I can't see a cloud in the Sky. The two mating Hawk Moths have gone on their merry way. Apparently mother Hawk Moth will be busy laying her eggs in a safe place. One of their favourite places to lay eggs are on the leaves of apple trees I can now understand who some of the culprits are that have been eating some of the the apples on our two trees all these years.

Hi & a big welcome to our Pride of Nottingham Community @Miles3659

It's a shame that all those tunnels were not put to good use. A small underground system to service the City & adjoining towns would have been a godsend today. Those who made the decision to close it obviously didn't look very far forward in their thinking. Victoria station & it's adjoining infrastructure was a fantastic piece of engineering & it's demolition was a great loss for future generations.

Looks like Stuart Maynard is going to be retained for another season. If that's the case Notts need to increase the number of coaching staff so he can count on plenty of support & alternative ideas & strategies.

Your Wednesday Weather 4cast

Interesting story. A battle that possibly led to the formation of the Scots under one ruler. I found out an Interesting fact about Ecgfrith the defeated Anglo Saxon king. He probably introduced the earliest Penny coinage. "Ecgfrith appears to have been the earliest Northumbrian king, and perhaps the earliest of the Anglo-Saxon rulers, to have issued the silver penny, which became the mainstay of English coinage for centuries afterwards. Coins had been produced by the Anglo-Saxons since the late 6th century, modelled on the coins being produced by the Merovingians in Francia, but these were rare, the most common being gold scillingas (shillings) or thrymsas. Ecgfrith's pennies, also known as sceattas, were thick and cast in moulds, and were issued on a large scale" Source Google.

The players that have been released is no surprise & who I expected. I think it demonstrates as well that the January transfer window didn't turn out as expected & I'm sure the club will learn from that. I would expect to see some players under contract leaving either by transfer or on loan. I would expect Morias & Traoré to be on that list along with Edwards & Reynolds. I hope Jatta isn't transferred but the owners do like to sell if there is a profit to be made.

@Simon Clark said, "His big disadvantage is that he doesn't have the same charisma to carry fans along as some other managers have" That's maybe so with a lot of Notts fans. For me it's not about the amount of Charisma a Manager has. Luke Williams has presence & Charisma but he couldn't stop the team leaking goals before he left. Stuart has done a great job for the reasons I've already specified elsewhere. My concern is his management of the team, the way his team plays, his obstinacy to play just one way, his use of substitutes, & is cautious mentality.

@Chris said "I was disappointed that Stuart Maynard didn't implement wise changes earlier". This was one of the issues I had with Stuart's management decisions in relation to substitutions throughout the season. Stuart's substitutions always appeared reactive rather than proactive & much of the time the substitutions were just too late to make a difference. For me this came from his perpencity to er on caution & playing safe instead of being bold & being prepared to take a gamble to change the course of a match.

It's a lovely morning here. Unbroken sunshine. Mrs was about to hang out the washing due to it being a great drying day. & we found these two massive moths mating Apparently they are Hawkmoths.
