It's Matchday. CMON U PIES!!!

The poll has now closed. Thanks to all who voted. Looks like we have a tie for the Pride of Nottingham's man of the Match between Alassana Jatta & George Abbott. Well done to both for their excellent performance against Cheltenham.

I want to continue with the walking all be it not as far as this year. Another 31 miles this month, the miles keep piling up. I want to make a conscious effort to spend less time on social media & take up some new pursuits. And it will be diet time at the beginning of 2025 after a few weeks of over indulgence. Happy new year to everyone on PON.

Jodi is still top of the EFL assists list even though he's been out injured for 3 months. It's still been a great year for Jodi despite the injury.

In my opinion he's a person who is being appointed on his reputation of being a very good player in his playing days, but is clearly not making it as a manager at the moment. Maybe he should look further down the league structure & get plenty of experience managing a smaller non league club for a while, & build is reputation as a Manager at a lower level. Not sure that he would want to do that, but he does have lots of experience that he could use while learning his trade as a coach & Manager.

Wind & rain in many areas as we go into the new year.

@Piethagoram forgotten about that one.

The most important game of the season for Notts on New Year's Day. Home advantage should help along with a big crowd to cheer the Magpies on to what could be a vital win. Walsall are arguably the best team in the division currently & are seemingly a cut above the rest. A win for Notts tomorrow would be very significant in the run of things, & would certainly send a message to the rest of the division. I think it will be a very close match, with the odd goal deciding it. A win would be absolutely fantastic, but I would settle for a point. I think avoiding a defeat is very important. Last season against Mansfield at home, in a similar very important crunch match, Notts were soundly beaten. Notts just need to reverse that against Walsall.

Poll closes 9pm Tuesday evening, The poll is tied at the moment between Abbott & Jatta. Let's make sure we get a winner tonight.

So we come to the last day of 2024. Notts will finish the year in a promotion place in third place. This year has flown by once again. It seems the older you get, the faster the passage of time is. Can remember as a child a day would seem to go on forever. The school day would seem so long, & there was always time to do whatever I wanted to do. As far as the weather is concerned going into the new year, looks like it will be windy and wet into Wednesday morning, so batten down the hatches.

Tuesday Morning Weather

AFC Wimbledon beat Gillingham 1-0 Sunday evening so they go second in the table on goal difference. Notts are third. Up to date table below ????

Hard to beat this one.

Personally I haven't watched the Champions league since it morphed from the European Cup.

Sheffield Wed 2 - 1 Derby West Brom 2 - 0 Preston Lincoln 2 - 1 Rotherham ???? Northampton 0 - 1 Stevenage Barrow 1 - 2 Bradford City Morecambe 0 - 1 Tranmere Rochdale 2 - 0 Altrincham York City 1 - 1 Gateshead

Your Weather for Monday.

Williams hasn't set the World alight since he left Notts. I think West Brom could do much better rather than appoint Williams.

Notts win against Cheltenham, meant that going into the new year, Notts have scored 49 goals in all competitions, so far this season.

I think after today's performance by Josh Martin,he may have got a contract extension till the end of the season. It was a performance and a half against Chelmsford.
