  1. Great article on Jackie. Jackie Sewell was a brilliant footballer who tends to get overshadowed a little by his strike partner Tommy Lawton, when people look back to that period in Notts County history, but Jackie had a very successful career and played alongside football greats for England. And he is rightly regarded as one of the Notts County greats.
  2. Great article on Jimmy who played his part in our success all those years ago It's really touching that he has been given a lovely tribute by the installation that beautiful headstone.
  3. Pedro Richards, simply one of our own who became another legend His contribution to our success will never be forgotten.
  4. Fantastic read. A true Notts legend between the sticks. They don't make them like that anymore.
  5. Great read on such an exceptional player. In my opinion he was the best player I saw play for Notts who took us from the fourth to the Ist Division as Captain & Midfield General and playmaker. Simply a big Notts legend & he's top of my players hall of fame too.
  6. Great article on Charlie Palmer. His passion and personality always shone through. And that winning goal against Forest. I was privileged to be there and it's one of my great memories.
  7. Great article on Steve Cherry. He's simply the best goalkeeper I've seen play for County and I've seen a few in my time watching them. He was simply Mr Reliable between the sticks. Another Notts C great.
  8. Jimmy Sirrel is simply Mr Notts County in my eyes. For what he did for this club is beyond measure. We've had so many great Managers throughout our history, some of them are legends in their own right, but non of them come close to Jimmy, who was simply out on his own.
  9. Phil Turner Captained Notts from midfield to tremendous success, getting us from the 3rd Division to the Ist in successive seasons, plus two Anglo-Italian Cup finals. He was the engine of our midfield during that successful period. Phil Turner goes into my Notts County hall of fame
  10. Les Bradd is not just a Notts County great. He is a Notts County legend who I was privileged to see play and score many many goals for Notts. Another Notts player who gets into my Notts County hall of fame
  11. Nice article about Lee Hughes. For me he was just simply sensational for Notts. Not many players have a presence on the pitch. These players are special and Lee Hughes was one of them. He's definitely in my Notts County hall of fame.
  12. I will never forget Andy's contribution to us getting to two Anglo-Italian Cup finals and winning the 2nd one. That long throw of his was a superb weapon which caused so many problems for the Italians. Andy was a great player for Notts.
  13. Really nice article about Iain McCulloch. Iain was one of the Notts County greats and was one of my favourite players in the early 1980s along with his partner up front, Trevor Christie. Iain top scored for Notts in consecutive seasons in the top flight. His career ended to early through injury.
  14. Mick Vinter scored some very important goals for us. He was a very good servant to our club. Very sorry to hear that he had died.
  15. James Sanderson looks to be a very good young player and will learn a lot from the being around the first team squad.
  16. @Fozzy I agree. Doncaster were very poor. We got away with some poor play ourselves at the back again today. We will be punished by Morecambe if we do the same on Friday.
  17. Coventry City 4 v Swansea City 1 Millwall 1 v Norwich City 2 Bristol Rovers 1 v Charlton Athletic 2 Burton Albion 0 v Shrewsbury Town 0 Joker Cheltenham Town 1 v Reading 0 Harrogate Town 2 v Tranmere Rovers 0 Newport County 2 v Crewe Alexandra 1 Salford City 1 v Grimsby Town 1
  18. The build up play today was truely sensational and back to what we have been used to over the last 12 months. Let's keep it going lads. Dan Crowley, what an acquisition he has turned out be. His nack of being at the right place at the right time is another great aspect of his game. Didzy & Macca at their best today too.
  19. Agree. Much better performance but still the continuing problems in defence and goalie position, fortunately we got away with it today. Still awaiting January window which will be pivotal to where we finish at the end of the regular season.
  20. Agree. We look much more sprightly in attack today. Didzy was superb today. We still need strengthening in defense, midfield & also a covering goalkeeper in January.
  21. Following on from our vital win against Doncaster and a confidence boosting clean sheet combined with another very good display from the lads, I would continue with the same team against the Shrimps and look for another similar performance. Morecambe will provide a much tougher opposition on Friday than Doncaster and we will need to be on our guard defensively for the 100 possible minutes. Macaulay has got his goal today, so he will feel much better for that after his 4 match goal draught, so in attack, we just need to keep doing what we are doing. Our goal total stands on 48 in the league, so Notts have proved that time and time again that attacking is not our problem. I'm predicting a 2:1 win against a very organised Morecambe side.
  22. A dominating performance today. Important clean sheet. Confidence boosting win, although Doncaster very poor. Morecambe will prove much tougher on Friday night. And what a stat, 100 goals scored in 2023. Back up the 5th in the table. Onwards and upwards.
  23. Really lovely story. Not just a fantastic supporter of Notts, Wendy's dedication to her charitable work is admiral & an example to us all.
  24. Really good article on Jim. Jim has been a key figure in our recent successes due to his adaptability & flexibility to cover a variety of different positions on the pitch when he was called upon.
  25. Hi it's Boxing day Match day. Notts v Doncaster. Can Notts County get a vital 3 points at home to Doncaster Rovers? A good Boxing Day crowd is expected generating a good atmosphere. What will be the key areas to achieve the win today? Can Macaulay get on the score sheet today? Can we keep a clean sheet? I'm going for a 3:1 win today to get us back on track in our bid to climb up that table again. Thoughts?
