  1. Unfortunately menzinho but XG and XGA Data Doesn't Win Football Matches. Goals Do Notts can have 99.9% of play have 100 shots on goal But once the Final Whistle Blows and the opposition have One More Goal then They Get Three Points and the Magpies Don't. And it would seem the current Notts playing Model which as been Adopted is also based on this Data. I wonder if there's Data about how boring this type of Tippy Tappy pass back to the Keeper or Backwards and Forwards and Sideways Football is. What about the Data which says once the Opposition have found out how to close down your Game Plan and you end up Losing more matches than you Win?
  2. 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.
  3. Yes Chris you're probably more that right about there won't be any eye opening or Earth Shattering comments. The only thing that Annoys the Hell Out Of Me is the Fact that No Subject Off Limits quote is it's Not happening they know that and we know that, Notts Fans Aren't Stupid.
  4. 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.
  5. Brilliant Questions Robbie and Ohh Tommy Johnson. I would have questions along the same lines. The Problem is mostly when you ask a difficult Question the Um's and the Err's Start and the Question gets danced around and it's Not Answered to the questioner's Satisfaction. All this Nothing Is Off Limits Is A Load of Nonsense. Why don't they just say we'll answer Questions we want to answer? Mind you if they did they wouldn't have much of a Pod Cast or whatever. It is unfortunate but I think that a Vast Majority of the Questions asked will be about Stuart Maynard, but those questions should be asked on another individual Pod Cast. What I would like to know Is Richard Montague Aware of the Massive Fan disapproval of his Recruitment strategy? By that I mean it's been painstakingly obvious that the Notts Defence as been lacking League Football Standard Defenders for several seasons now, So What is he and his team Going To Do About It? Another Question is why do Notts have Loan players, when surely Youth players deserve a crack at a first team spot, without being loaned out over and over again? To Joe Palmer I would ask, You keep coming up with these Big Ideas such as the Fan Zone etc My Question is how is this being paid for? And how much of an Impact will all your ideas have on the Ordinary Notts Fan's Pocket? And I am in Full Agreement Robbie, the Stadium and Fans Match Day Comfort should be the Top Priority, along with a decent playing Surface for Players to Show and Exhibit their Footballing Skills.
  6. 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***
  7. Thanks Fan of Big Tone and DangerousSausage. I'll put aside mending me wheelbarrows just for this Occasion.
  8. Does this Mean they'll answer Hard Questions? Or like the ardent Politician dance around and babble on about Nothing? Will it only be on X ? As believe it or believe it Not some Fans aren't on the Platform or not on Social Media at all.
  9. AJ is really having a tremendous Start to his Notts Career. Well done sir keep it up.
  10. Where's the Man himself? I don't see him.
  11. You ain't Kidding Robbie that goal at the end of a mazy run will take a lot of beating in the Goal of the Season category. And it would be a shame if we lost Jodie to a team in League 1 next season because if things had been different at the Lane the Magpies could have been in a Promotion Spot. With Luck he may decide to remain with Notts one more season to see if the Magpies can gain Promotion. If this the case a contract extension should be offered in the off season. But if Jodi does decide to leave yes he will be hard to replace, but not impossible last season when Ruben left it was felt his influence would be missed but Dan Crowley hasn't done to bad a job in covering his position.
  12. Nice One. I'm Pleased for the Lad. I think he didn't really get a Fair Crack of the Whip at Notts and I could understand him wanting to move away from the Lane. But do you remember that over the head goal he scored for Notts, that seemed like everybody on Social Media was talking about? I t was even put forward for the Puskas Award but didn't even get a Mention. After all how could a player representing a Club like Notts County be even considered for the Award? TOTAL FOOTBALL SNOBERY . Now if Eli had scored the goal playing for oh say Man City Liverpool or Arsenal he would have probably Won the damn Award.
  13. CONGRATULATIONS . To these Young Ladies You All Have Done Notts County PROUD!!
  14. Ohh Tommy Johnson I doubt it would be Jeff Bezos Elon Musk and Bill Gates, because Elon does Not Like The Other Two. Be kinda Cool if it was Elon out of the Three He'd be the Only One I'd Trust. As I don't know John Ted and Bill from the Dog and Duck I couldn't comment on those Gentlemen. (Ha Ha)
  15. How about a Shout Out to the Young Ladies at Notts who won a Trophy Final the other Day after being 2-1 down came back and Won 3-2. Hope the club allow the girls to have a Lap of Honour with their Trophy at the Last Home Match of the Season.
  16. Robbie Maybe it wouldn't be a Bad Idea for the new Notts website to have a page in which Fans could ask such questions like yours i.e. the concourses and other things regarding the Stadium, and be given an answer quickly and an answer that's in plain English and doesn't rattle on for what seems like for ever. I agree the Pitch and the Stadium should take top priority and maybe something could be done about the Gents toilets? Like hot water and the hand drying units. It strikes me that the New CEO wants to Race ahead with things I hope he and his team take time to think things through and where the Money is coming from because I'm sure Chris and Alex haven't got bottomless pockets, neither have the Fans. Taking on to many projects could end up Crippling the Club's finances. and Notts certainly Don't Want To Return to an Hardy like Era. And just because say Wrexham or Mansfield have got such and such , doesn't mean Notts Need to have the Same. I would say the Top Priority at the Lane is a Top Class Playing Surface for the Players to Play On and Fans can enjoy watching a match in Comfort.
  17. Proof if any is needed the Notts Defence isn't up to League 2 Standard.
  18. This sounds amazing but the one thing which raises it's Ugly Head is MONEY. How will this effect the average Notts Fan? I.e. Season ticket cost or Match Day admission? There is a recession going on which doesn't appear to be coming to an end any time soon, not matter which Political Party is running the country. The Cost of living is Sky High paying bills putting food on the table and dressing your kids is going to take Priority above anything Notts can come up with. And pricing out the ordinary Fan isn't going to help the Club in the Long Run, I know this isn't all going to happen straight away but the Cost to any new vendors as well as Fans using any of the new facilities must be affordable or things such as the Nest will be poorly attended and could end up being a White Elephant. Hopefully the people in charge of these projects are experts in their field and will have worked out the cost and what sort of income is required cover those costs. One thing that did puzzle me was the Paddle Centre is it? How much money did that cost and is the centre making any money for the Club? It's all right having these Bright Ideas let's just hope they will be a Big Financial Help to the Club.
  19. 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.
  20. There is of course a lot of talk of where Macca and Jodi may end up next season. So here are my thoughts. During the January Transfer window there was a lot of speculation that Macca was on the move and some Media even declared he was on to way to several different Clubs. Sunderland Birmingham City and near neighbours Derby County were mentioned, thankfully nothing materialized and it was just paper talk. However the rumour mill will soon be bubbling along and Macca will come under the Micro Scope of other clubs so if Macca does move where will he Go? If Derby renewed their interest and paid a decent amount for his services and he moved to Pride Park I think there may be a lot of Notts Fans who might just nip down the A52 for a look and see how Macca would deal with life in the Championship should the Rams get Promoted. Don't be surprised if Luke Williams doesn't try and convince the Swansea board to take a look at Macca. Finally it certainly wouldn't be (I think) out of the realms of possibility that our Friends over the Boarder in Wales Wrexham put in a Bid should they get into League 1. It will be up to the owners to convince Macca to stay at the Lane ( I hope they do) but with the signing of AJ the return of Cedwyn Scott and Didzy will it be hoped by the Notts Board they have enough cover should Macca be Sold to another Club? Jodi Jones Record Breaker, Jodi Jones League 2 Player of the Season (Possibly) Shush keep it quiet. But a player that good Notts can't keep his skills and Talent undercover. At the age of 26 beating 3 ACL injuries looking at a possible early retirement from the game, shows beyond any shadow of a doubt Jodi Jones is also a Fighter a Guy who doesn't know the meaning of the word quit, and Now (hopefully) with his injury worries behind him, clubs higher up the Football Pyramid are Taking Note. Could Jodi hold down a place in the Championship? Maybe but I think it's more than likely should Jodi leave the Lane this coming off season it will be to a League 1 Club and that's where Wrexham (should they be promoted) come in. If the Red Dragons do (and it seems highly likely) get promotion then a Double Bid for Macca and Jodie (I believe ) wouldn't be much of a surprise they would of course face opposition from other League 1 Clubs in Jodi's case and League 1 and Championship Clubs in Macca's. What ever the outcome and I hope both are still playing in the Black & White Stripes of Notts County next season, both Guys will hold a Place in the Hearts of all Magpie Fans and each deserve our Thanks for the Huge contribution to they have made to the History of Notts County Football Club. Thoughts?
  21. And still the Swans sit in 15th place in the Championship. Luke Williams seems to be in the a similar sort of position as Stuart Maynard (but as won more matches) by that I mean it's not his Squad so will he be given more time to rebuild Swansea into the image he produced at the Lane with Notts? I read that the Swansea owners have pumped £2 million into the club, but will any of that be available for Williams to buy players?
  22. A Remarkable Achievement Indeed Robbie. Lets hope the Magpies can keep up their Goal Scoring Antics next season, but lets hope they don't Concede has many Eh?
  23. This Praise is Excellent for Jodi the only problem is, it will alert other clubs of his skills and performances, as if they weren't aware of him already. If Notts could hold onto him his influence on the team next season will help immensely with the Magpies Promotion Push and I would hope out of Loyalty he will Remain at the Lane. With Notts being the only club to gamble on him, when it appeared no other team were interested in him. No I'm Not kidding myself I understand if Jodi needs to express his Talent at a higher level and a Transfer would bring in more money for his young Family, but it would be nice to think he would hang around to help get the Magpies into League 1. But if he goes during the off season I for one wouldn't begrudge him a move, and he will leave us with some Amazing Memories like his Goal against Boreham Wood in last season's Playoff Semi Final.
  24. 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.
