Match Discussion: Game 44 - The Saddlers (A)
After the game against Harrogate and the 3-0 Victory lets hope Notts don't do what they normally do and go and lose their next match. the only change I'd make from the Harrogate match, I'd play Jodi Jones from the start. Result 2-2 with Goals from Macca and AJ.

This just in there is a rumour that Notts are going to sign an Irish Midfield Wizard he's only a little fella that goes by the name of A Knee Mick. A little lad asks his Dad. Dad where are the Rockies? I Don't Know Son. Dad when was the English Civil War? I Don't Know Son. Dad what the Square Root of 519? I Don't Know Son. Dad you don't mind me asking you these questions do you. Of course not Son how do you learn anything if you don't ask. This chap throws a coin into a Wishing Well then suddenly this little bloke playing a piano appears. The Chap say s I didn't wish for a twelve inch pianist.

Fan Zone New Name
The Gulp a Nod to Beer Drinking Magpie Fans eh? I think Magpie should be incorporated in the Name because the Nest will still be associated with Notts County. Because people who are attending a Function there and don't where it is, they'll be told it's on Iremonger Road next to Meadow Lane where Notts County play and their nickname is the Magpies.

Fan Zone New Name
So it's been decided that the New Notts Fan Zone is being called the Nest. How Boring they must be something better or exciting more in tune with the Magpies. Going on the Old Internet I've come up with A Conventicle, A Gulp, A Mischief A Tidings or Tribe of Magpies. Any of those have to be better than The Nest. My Favourite one is A Tribe of Magpies. A Fan Zone called the Tribe of Magpies gives the impression of Fan togetherness and the Support of the Players and Club. The Nest Give me a Break. So my fellow PON Members what's your Favourite and Why?

Do you remember when Notts had the idea of bringing a friend to the Lane? Well me and Alan who'd never been to a Football match came to watch the Magpies in action. We were right at the Back of the Kop when Alan says I need to go for a Wee where's the nearest Loo? You don't need the Loo Just Wee in the Wellington boot of that Bloke next to you. Won't he feel it? asked Alan You Didn't I replied.

Now you see it Now you don't Now you see it Now you don't. Sound like a Nudist rolling down a Hill. I said to my Mate Why do you keep Scratching yourself? He replied Because I'm the only One who knows where the Itch is. Two Owls sitting on a Branch one says to the other I've just got engaged, his friend says You Twit To Who? I was at a Mates Birthday party and said to another friend Gary isn't all that Old you know. There was only 27 candles on his cake. Mind you that's only on the Slice I had.

Me Tonto very sorry to hear about your Bad Case Of Dermatitis Kimo Scabby. Tonto walks into a Saloon looking for the Loan Ranger. Under each arm he's got a hissing spitting Nasty Cat. The Lone Ranger looks at him and says No Tonto, I said round up a Posse. I would now like to sing a song made famous by the singer Box Car Willie that is his name not a Disease. Oh Give Me a home were Buffalo's roam and I'll show you house Full Of Cow S***

The Loan Ranger comes across his friend Tonto laying down with his ear pressed to the ground. What are you up to Tonto Old Friend? asks the Lone Ranger. Stage coach come this way Six horses two black three chestnut and one Grey. Driver had beard and pimple on his left cheek. Stage Guard holds rifle in his left hand he's clean shaven and as broken nose. Inside coach six passengers four men two women. That's amazing Tonto and you can tell this just by having your ear to the ground? Oh No Kimosabie the bloody Coach ran over my Head.

Match Discussion: Game 43 - Sulphurites (H)
Well I'm Happy to be Proven Wrong. I thought at Best Notts would get a Draw. But the 3-0 victory will give everyone a Boost. But it might have been a totally different game if Harrogate had taken a couple of their chances and had scored their Penalty. But they didn't and it seemed Luck was with Notts for a change. Young Ashby-Hammond had an excellent game and should have been MOTM, it strange but a Keeper never seems to get that honour. There are still glaring problems with the defence which hopefully will be sorted over the Summer. It was nice to see Macca back on the score sheet, with a well taken Penalty and he's now only 4 goals shy of the 30 goal mark. Jodi's mazy run and goal was a joy to watch and it's clear to see why Clubs higher up the Football Pyramid will be looking at him. Jim also proved that like AJ he too can score with his head. But lets not get carried away after past victories Notts have failed to build on their Win and have Lost their following match lets hope they can get a result at Walsall. I'm still Not Convinced about Stuart Maynard but the Guy seemed more Relaxed in his after match interview and he's starting to hopefully settle into his role. If the Magpies can go undefeated till the end of the season, not only will it give the Team confidence for next season but will bring dissatisfied Fans back on side and make Maynard's Task a lot more easier.

I went to one of those Aromatherapists , this chap came in to the room Farted and said that'll be £25. What's got three wheels and goes along a River Bed at 100mph? A Motor Pike and side Carp. There were two Old Guys in an Old Folks home leaning on their Zimmer Frames chatting about the Old Days. One chap says Do you realise if we'd Smoked more Cigarettes, Drunk more Booze Taken more Drugs and had more Women. We'd have Missed all this.

A Mate of mine is an impressionist and a rather Good One, he does a very funny skit about Star Trek. I'd not seen him in awhile but bumped into him the other day. Hello Phil not seen you in awhile where have you been? I asked. I took my act all around Europe, in fact I'm just back from Northern France. Oh Dunkirk? Yes he replied And Spock, Scottie and Doctor McCoy.

I was at the Doctors having a check up and he asked what colour are your Stools? He looked a bit confused when I said they're light brown with a Tartan top. I got home the other day and found I'd locked myself out. Looking through the window I saw the Cat Let me I said. The Cat looked at me and said Me Ow? We've got a New Puppy which the kids sat on a Piece of Sandpaper they then asked How do you feel Puppy, the answer was Ruff. Then there was the Astronaut who declared he was going to land on the Sun. When asked how he was going to achieve this, he replied he was going to Travel at Night.

My Mates Grandson as just celebrated his fourth Birthday but he can't say Please in Spanish. That's Poor For Four. I went for an audition at our Local Amateur Dramatics group they're doing a Play about a Japanese Prisoner of War Camp. So there was me and seven skinny blokes. Anyway the Director comes over to me and says Who are you supposed to be? A Japanese Prisoner of War. But you must be 17 stone said the Director Ah yes I replied But they only caught me yesterday. I did get a part in that Famous Play The Bare Foot Contessa. I played the part of a Bunion.

Looking at your Line up Ohh Tommy Johnson their isn't even a Full Bench would there be any harm in filling it with Youngsters? Even if they didn't get the Pitch the Experience of being chosen for the First team would be a Massive Boost to their Moral. It would give any Players with a niggle or illness a chance to recover, without having to play with their injury and make that injury worse.

So Me and a couple of Mates were watching one of those Murder Mystery programmes on the tele. Just before the end I said Come on then who do you think did it? I reckon it was was Basil. Why do you say that? Well when they found the body in the herb garden, the victim had a Basil Leaf in his hand. Yeah I agree I think it was Basil to My other Mate said Well it was a good job he wasn't Murdered by his Uncle Dick, God alone would know what they'd have found in his hand then.

Ohh Tommy Johnson Maybe Just Maybe Now Is The Time To Blood Some Of The Young Players? At least they'll Give It A Go. Notts 0-2 Harrogate is my Prediction then again the Magpies may just scrape a 0-0. Happy to be Proven Wrong.

It seems it's Rude to ask a Lady her age, so say How much do you Weigh? My mate was telling me that in his younger days he used to live a Korean Girl. She was an amazing Cook and could make a pie from Scratch. Thing is I Loved that Dog.

Last year our local village fete was cancelled because of an outbreak of Tom Bola. Lizard Lizard Lizard, is there a Gekko in here? Then there was the Dog Breeder who crossed a Rottweiler with a Saint Bernard. Really what type of Dog did he get? One that Ravages you then goes and gets you a Brandy. Sitting on the bus the other day, I looked at the bloke sitting next to me. He was my double I was beside myself.

Robbie I didn't know about the Jones baby but sleepless nights are something he'll have get used too, and hopefully won't effect his training to much in the future. The problem is Notts had a decent sort of result today but it's still Not Enough (in my opinion) for Maynard to keep his job. It seems if Notts get a Result i e the victories at Newport and Bradford and todays draw some Fans think the worst is over but what usually happens in the following match the Magpies drop back into the same Old Routine it also seemed that once Notts had gotten in front they reverted back to their tippy tappy Football instead of going in for the Kill and once again the Dons third goal their player had acres and acres of room, by easily beating the offside trap, then it was thankyou and another goal for the opposition how many times have we Fans seen that this season? The Bigger picture should be looked at and not just the Odd Good Result. After all 9 points out of 42 isn't anything to write home about. The Form of Jatta is certainly a Bright Point amongst the Gloom at Notts and hopefully he can carry on with his Goal Scoring Prowess in the Future.

The Banner regarding Maynard Out it was only a matter of time, and to be Honest I was surprised it took this Long. I don't Agree with it but those Notts Fans are Entitled to Opinion. It may be only a Minority at the moment but how long before it becomes the Majority? Why did Maynard play Chicksen and Not Jones? Despite Jones being on the pitch for what 11 minutes? He still chalked up another Assist . I can't believe Macca's Luck in front of goal just lately he must be wondering what he needs to do to get back on the score sheet. Well it now seems Notts can't be relegated even mathematically.

In our local village we would always see the Vicar riding around on his bike chatting to people helping with any problems villagers may have. Well one morning I came across the Reverend walking along the Street. Morning Vicar I said where's your bike? I'm afraid it's been stolen. Oh Dear I replied May I give you some advice Reverend? Yes please do. Well next Sunday make your Sermon about the Ten Commandments and when you get to Thou shall Not Steal stop and have a Good look round the congregation and who ever looks guilty, that's your thief. Thankyou I'll try that said the Vicar. So the following Sunday we're all in Church and the Reverend gave his Sermon on the Ten Commandments, but instead of stopping and looking round at Thou shall Not Steal he carried on. Well after the service we thanked the Vicar his sermon and I said Vicar you didn't stop when you got to Thou Shall Not Steal. I know he whispered But when I got to Thou Shall Not Commit Adultery I remembered where I'd Left My Bike.
