The Reason for me asking these questions was that around the time of the Early Bird Season tickets going on sale a lot of Fans seemed to think that Macca leaving would have an effect on the Ticket Sales. It as always been my thought that No Player is Bigger than the Club, Regardless of his Popularity. There is also shall we say Sadness amongst Fans seeing the Coach and Players who brought Notts last Major Trophy to Meadow Lane ( the National League Playoff Trophy) leaving and finding pastures New or Retiring and going into Coaching. But for all the Glory those people brought to Notts, the Club goes on New Players and Hero's emerge for the Fans to support , and they in Turn will Leave or Retire but the Circle of Life at the Club continues.

Yes I Know Macca's gone and different Topics have been written about him. And an Awful Lot By Yours Truly. Just a Couple of more Questions Do you think that if Notts Fans had known Macca was being Sold say around the Time he was appointed as Club Captain, his departure would have had any Real Effect on Season Ticket Sales? And If You Knew Macca was going to Leave Before You Bought Your Season Ticket . Would You have Still bought Your Season Ticket, or would You Have Not Bothered?

@Robbie Strange isn't it, You know how Notts should Play, I know how Notts should Play. So If Stuart Maynard gets the sack, You Apply for the Head Coach Position and I'll Be Your Assistant, What Do You Reckon?????

@Robbie It True what Carlton Pie says neither Jodi Jones Nor Aaron Nemane are Not Defenders. Aaron is No Bigger than a Pile of Coppers so he ain't gonna out jump a Six Foot Plus Striker. Jodi is only slightly built and Can't Out Muscle a Big Centre Forward. The Lad is Built for Speed and Trickery . There should be Enough Defenders to Do that job so Neither Jodi or Aaron need to come back and Defend. But the "Model" System ( How I've Grown To Hate That Word) must be played. Tippy Tappy build Up From The Back. Get to the Opponents 18 yard Box then pass it all the way back to the Notts Keeper. When will Stuart Maynard realize the System's Wrong? When he loses his Job. When will Richard Montague realize the System's wrong? When Notts are fighting a Relegation Battle. Then Again Montague Strikes Me As Someone Who Thinks He Can Do No Wrong. Until a Coach comes in (or Stuart Maynard sees the Light) and Stands Up and Says No the Magpies Aren't Playing This Way and things change it would seem our Favourite Team are going to be in for a Season of Struggle. I'm More Than Happy To Be Proven Wrong.

@Robbie To be Honest I thought it was a load of Bunkum. Then you read about West Ham wanting to buy a Leeds Striker, then you think, Hey there might be some truth in it. As I've said before did Millwall get their Bid in before Leeds? Or did Leeds think the West Ham interest was just that? So thought no more about it, but when they realised the Hammers wanted to buy Summerville, Macca had already been Snapped up by Millwall so Leeds had to strike up some kind of deal with the Lions, which will Eventually See Macca move to Elland Road.? It is of course What If's or Maybe's there's No Way To Tell if It's just a Rumour or in fact there's some Actual Truth In the Rumour, it will All Come Out Eventually, One Way Or Another.

There was this couple who were going to a Friends Fancy Dress Party. Suddenly their Car breaks down. The Husband can't fix it and he says to his wife, I'm going to lock the Car and leave it here till morning and get the AA out so they can sort it. How are we going to get to Ian and Brenda's ? asks his wife. Look says the Husband. You can see their house from here. Pointing to their Friends Big House which can be seen across a Field. We can put our costume on and walk across the Field to Ian and Brenda's. So they put on their costume a Pantomime Cow. The Husbands at the front while the Wife is the back end. Anyway half way across the Field, they hear a Bellow. Oh No says the Wife. It's the Bull. What are we going to do? Well replies her Husband, I Going To Pretend To Eat Grass. I Think You should Brace Yourself.

Here's an update on this Rumour . Might be Something Might be Nothing. West Ham are about to sign Leeds Dutch Striker Crysencio Summerville. Is this who Macca will eventually replace at Leeds if this Rumour is True?

There's this Doctor walking around a Maternity Ward he goes to the first bed. Morning Mrs Thompson. I see your Baby's due on August the 15th. What do you want a Boy or Girl. I'm Not bothered Doctor just as long as it's Healthy. Doctor goes to the Next Bed Morning Mrs James. Oh I see your Baby is also due on August the 15th. And what are you hoping for? I'd like a little Girl Doctor because we've already got a Little Lad. Onto the Third Bed goes the Doctor Morning Mrs Connelly. I don't believe this your Baby is also due on August the 15th. Looks like I'm going to be busy. Boy or a Girl? I'm Not really bothered Doctor. Next Bed Along. Morning Mrs Reeves. Oh I see your Baby isn't due until the 19th of August. That's Right Doctor I Didn't Go On The Same Coach Trip The Others Went On.

Naming only Four Notts Legends is Difficult. I think a Fairer idea would be a Players Mount Rushmore and a Managers Mount Rushmore. Here's An Idea. Never Mind The Seven Wonders Of The World. How About The Seven Wonders of Notts? Managers Mount Rushmore Jimmy Sirrel Jack Wheeler Sam Allardyce Neil Warnock. Players Mount Rushmore Tommy Lawton Les Bradd Don Masson Albert Iremonger. Special Mentions Brian Kilcline Lee Hughes and Macauley Langstaff a Bust done of Each along with Derek Pavis and Colin Slater. I Don't Know about a Notts Mount Rushmore. More Like A Mountain Range.

It's Bloody Hot.

There's a Big Sign over Heaven's Gate. All Men Who Have Been Dominated By Their Wives Stand Here. There's A Que a Mile long. Along side the First gate there's another Gate, with a sign over it. All Men Who Haven't Been Dominated By Their Wives Stand Here. There's One Skinny Nervous Looking Chap Standing There. Saint Peter walks past and says what are you doing there? The Skinny Chap Looks at him and says, The Wife Told Me To Stand Here.

What line up should Stuart Maynard Go For? Simple The Strongest Possible, the 11 he intends to play at Tranmere, against the Best Posh have to offer.

Preseason Friendlies are to build up a Players fitness, time for New Players to get settled into their New Environment and for the Head Coach to get an idea of the players he'll start in his First XI once the League Season Starts and by Winning Games to Install Confidence and a Positive Attitude. Leaking Goals was a Major Problem last season and new Defenders have been brought in to Stop the Rot. And yet 7 goals conceded in the Last 3 Matches alone Is A Major Concern. So perhaps the Fault doesn't lie with the Defence more of the way Notts play. I don't know how many more times Fans are going to have to say this, until Richard Montague and Stuart Maynard Realize it. THE NOTTS TIPPY TAPPY FOOTBALL "MODEL" DOES NOT WORK. I would say a Majority of Players Don't like it as it goes against the way they normally play and New Players are struggling to Adapt. Stuart Maynard does Not have very good Man Management skills. However left to his own devices he May be able to Find a Winning Formula. But I think there is to much Interference from other Quarters that Stops him doing his Job Properly. And for Fans not overly concerned with the Preseason Results, if memory serves, the Preseason before Notts were Promoted back into the EFL, the Magpies Didn't lose a Match. Therefore Winning becomes a Habit and a Team will carry that Winning Attitude Into The New Season.

Really what an awful Performance. For a Team that's strengthened defensively with the hope for Pushing for Promotion to League 1 and they can't even beat a Non League side. Just What The Hell Is Maynard Up To? Does He Enjoy Putting Himself Under Pressure? Heaven Help Notts on this Performance against Peterborough they'll Rip the Magpies Apart. And don't go on about it's a Friendly and it doesn't count. That's as Maybe But Winning any kind of Match Breeds Confidence through out the Squad. And if the Magpies get a Thumping at Peterborough Well it won't belong Before in some quarters before the Knives are being Sharpened Ready For Maynard.

I Can't make head nor tail of it either. As @CliftonMagpie said why wouldn't Leeds just bid for Macca in the First place? Unless Millwall got their Bid in first and Leeds came to some sort of Agreement which will benefit Millwall by Leeds paying Macca's wages and then loaning him back to the Lions on the condition at the end of this Current season he'll go to Leeds, who may have a Prolific Goal Scorer on they hands in the Premiership should they get Promoted. @Robbie Millwall may not play like Notts do, but I think Leeds will. Imagine should Leeds get Promoted and Return to the Premiership then they'll have Macca a Proven Goal scorer for a Mere £1.5 million. At the moment there may not be room for Macca at Leeds . Then again he's not first pick at the Den. If and I say again if the Rumour is True, Leeds may be waiting to Off load one of their Expensive flops at the End of 2024/2025, to replace him with Macca. Wheels within Wheels.?

There is a Strong rumour going round. I say again A RUMOUR. Macca as left the Millwall Training Camp in Spain to fly back to the U.K. To Sign For Leeds United, who will loan him back to Millwall for the Coming Season. Any Truth in the Rumour or Do You Think It's A Load of Old Cobblers? I'm more on the Ageing Shoemakers side of things. Then Again if it is True Notts will get a Piece of the Transfer Fee reported to be £1.5 million.

@DangerousSausage Fair Enough I Didn't Know A Club Is Only Allowed 22 Squad Members.

@Chris and @allardyces tash Your right, But you Mis-gender somebody and your feet what touch the floor, you'll have a Police Van and 20 Coppers Knocking at Your Door.

@Fozzy 19 or 20 players, (I said 20 because someone stated it on PON) It simply isn't Enough. As I said in my Previous post a Squad of 24 Senior and two Academy players, should be sorted now ready for the Season's start. @menzinho Thanks for the Highlights upload. Just watching these clips Notts defenders still hang off attacking forwards instead of tackling them. New defenders seem to be playing a system that's Alien to them it looks like they aren't playing their natural game and if this isn't sorted quickly Notts could find themselves struggling playing a "Model" that doesn't suit them.

I walked into the bathroom the other day, and the wife had just gotten out of the shower She was Bent over in front of me Drying her feet. I Thought Wow. I wish I could Bend Over That Far.

There are some complete A**e H***s around. Even if these people are caught, what will happen to them ? In a word NOTHING. If anyone can go into a store and shoplift Items worth under £200 the Police aren't Interested, so wrecking Goal Posts isn't going to Bother the Police. If it's reported to the Law they'll just shrug their shoulders and write a Report about the incident.

The Senior Squad at Notts is 20 players. And with Matt Palmer and Nick Tsaroulla both still inured then the number is down to 18. That's not enough. The Magpies first Match is August 10th so between Now and Then the Club need to sign another Four Players (that's the number often quoted) Four players in 13 days that's a Big Ask, Four New Players who have to learn the type of game Notts play over 1 or 2 Preseason Games. I would have hoped the Squad would have been settled by Now and Preparations for the Season more or less Sorted. 24 Senior Squad Members plus a Couple of Academy Players, to Choose From.

Ok it's a Preseason Friendly, No League Points at Stake. But isn't there a worry that Notts are 2-0 against a National League Side an instead of going on to Score more Goals, and Secure a Confidence Boosting Victory the Magpies end up drawing 2-2. Stuart Maynard seemed far to casual in his Interview, surely by now he should have his Starting XI ready for the opening Game at Tranmere and they should be playing in these last few Friendlies.

Did You Notice how far Bass came out of his Goal to set up the passes which lead to Notts Second Goal. You will Also Notice there are No Notts Defenders covering the Magpies Goal if Bass had lost the Ball. Playing Tippy Tappy Football is Wrong for Notts and if they go on Playing that way, instead of Pushing For Promotion, the Magpies could Find Themselves in a Relegation Battle. I was thinking @Robbie as Scott Fully Recovered from his injury? Then again he as to learn how to play along side Jatta and that may take Time. Once he does find the Back of the Net, I think other Goals will come.

OOOPS. But then again that's Nothing New To Notts Is It? How Many times did that Happen to the Magpies Last Season?
