That's Just It @CliftonMagpie If Notts have a Head Coach who will Give Them a Try. Both Riley and James should have been given a Run in the First team by now and have the Oppotunity to stake a place in the First Team Squad/Team. There will No Doubt be calls of their Not Ready, well when will they be ready? Nobody will Know until they're Given The Chance.

There's a Saying Doing The Same Thing And Expecting A Different Result Is The Height Of Stupidity. Nuff Said. DO YOU THINK NOTTS WILL GET AN AWARD AT THE END OF THE SEASON?

The Preseason isn't that the time for the players to Gel? To get to know each other? Time for a Head Coach to get to know his player's Strength's and Weaknesses and work out his Tactics? Thus enabling the Magpies to Hit the Ground Running, at the Start of a New Season? I like your Glass half Full attitude @macpie , there was a lot of Positives before yesterdays Game and many Fans (myself included) thought the Magpies would kick off with a Win, only for Notts to turn in a Performance like that. And the longer Notts fail to produce a Win, the worse it will be for them, to get out of a losing Rut. The Biggest problem for the Magpies they've lost three Top Players from last season, Didzy Crowley and Bass, with the possibility of a Fourth in Jatta, and none have been replaced by like for like players. Before the Close of the Transfer Window, like it or Not, the Brothers need to Bring in a New Goalkeeper and a Striker and MP needs to make some Tough decisions and Drop players who are Not Performing even if in the Past they were certain to be one of the first names, on the Starting XI team sheet. MP also needs to take Jodi to one side and get him to change his attitude he's turning into a Prima Donna, throwing his toys out of the Pram, if a Decision doesn't go his way, Jodi (and all other Notts Players) should know by now that Officials at this level aren't going to Give You Anything. They need to get up Brush themselves Down and get on with the Game. Moaning and Groaning at the Ref is only going to get you a Yellow Card and those Yellow Cards will end up in a Ban, which means the Team will suffer More.

Notts shouldn't have let Sam Go. He may not have been an Out and Out Star Player for the Magpies, but he always put in a Shift in a Notts Shirt and gave it 100%.

There's going to have to be one Hell of an Improvement, on Saturdays dismal Performance if the Magpies are going to get anything but a Drubbing come Tuesday Night.

My mate Dave is a Big Fan of Amateur Dramatics. I suppose it's a case of him wanting the life style and not forgetting the Money of a Film Star. He's pretty sure by now he'd have at least a couple of Oscars on the Shelf in his Front Room. And to ease the Blow of not becoming a Hollywood Icon, he turned his attention to Amateur Dramatics. He joined a Local Group and he's very Good at the Acting Lark. Despite the Amateur Label things within the Group are still run on Professional Lines, all the Actors and Actresses have to audition for their parts, and they Rehearse regularly before their Opening Night, they also have the Local Critic present to watch and Review their work. There as been a few occasions when I've accompanied him to his auditions and I've been roped into helping to move scenery around during a Performance. I've also gone along to some of his auditions. One time they did a play Tenko about Japanese Prisoners of War. Dave went along, there was him and seven skinny blokes. The Director went up to Dave and said And who are you supposed to be? A Japanese Prisoner of War. But you must be 15 stone said the Director. Yes I know ,but they only caught me yesterday. The Drama Group are also into Realism. One time Dave and another bloke Malc were up for the Part of Long John Silver, in the Groups version of Treasure Island. Malc got the part and Dave had to settle for another role. First day of rehearsal Dave noticed Malc wasn't there. Where's Malc? Dave asked the Director. He's in Hospital, having his right leg Amputated. Then the other day I asked him when was the Groups next Production. He said he didn't know because he had been asked to leave. Why? I asked It was down to a Stage Direction misunderstanding. We were rehearsing Shakespeare's Hamlet, and I misunderstood the Direction, Enter Ophelia from behind.

I thought the hiring of the Doctor was so Notts could cut down on injuries (all part of the New Notts Model)? Both Tsaroulla and Jarvis are good players and will be an asset to the First XI when fully Fit. Traore seems to be struggling to adopt to the Riggers of EFL Football, I think He'll End Up Going Out On Loan. Much like Junior did last season. The Count (Roos) is a liability and can't encourage confidence in the Defenders in front of him Don't think that any time soon will Fans be informed regarding injury up dates, that isn't the Clubs Style, if the past few Seasons are anything to go by.

Maybe if the Club had Offered Didzy a Decent Wage, instead of Cutting a Huge chunk out of his Money ( has it's been Rumoured) perhaps he'd have been hitting the Back of the Net for Notts.

Well Done Macca!! Pleased For The Guy, if like it's been said Millwall Play To His Strengths Then He'll Get The Goals.

Certainly Not a First Choice Keeper for the Magpies. A Good Back Up Maybe. I Often Wonder How Tiernan Brookes Would Have Done, Had He Stayed At The Lane.

Best Of Luck Georgie Boy. After last season down the Lane, I was surprised a Championship Club didn't come in for him. I think he's have done well at Derby. Wycombe have got themselves a Gem and if they back him like the Magpies did, he'll be in for another Good Season, I'll keep an eye out on his progress.

@Robbie How many times was that Excuse Trotted Out Last Season? Poor Referees and Officials.

Superman and Batman were in a cafe having a chat and a Mug of Coffee. What you been up to today then? asks Batman. Well I was flying through the Sky and saw Wonder Woman, sun bathing naked on a roof. So I swooped down and gave her one. I Bet that surprised her said Batman. Yeah but Not as much as it did the Invisible Man.

I Know it's only the Start of the Season, but it's worrying to see two teams tipped for Relegation ( Newport and Harrogate) both above the Magpies.

Good Luck Riley, all the Best for a Good Season. The thing that worries me though is, if Notts Go their Normal Route should he have a Good Season he'll be Sold On, instead of being a potential member of the Notts First Team Squad and playing for the Magpies.

Well Salford are turning into Notts Bogey Team. That's the Third home match on the Trot Notts have Lost. Including last seasons Doncaster and Wimbledon Defeats. How much Longer are the Magpies going to insist on playing from the Back? It doesn't work in this league . This has been stated from the time since Notts were promoted from the National League it's No Good playing Pretty Tippy Tappy Football if Notts are going to get Beaten. A couple of more Defeats and the Knives will be Out for Martin Paterson. It's No Good trying to take positives out of this Game, it just won't wash with certain parts of the Notts Fan Base. They want to see Notts win games especially on their own Turf. It's only the second match of the Season, the Teams got to Gel the Head Coach needs to find out his Best Starting XI, all this has been pointed out But some Fans I've been around won't listen. Notts have a Director Of Football who hasn't got a Clue, a poor Head Coach a Recruitment Team who only sign Has been's Free Agents and Loanees. Is it any wonder Jatta's Agent wants him to leave Notts? There's the Stink of Defeat around Meadow Lane. Just a Few Comments from the Notts faithful from Fans who have been going to the Lane for many along year. And until Notts Start Winning Games, I Guess This Attitude will continue.

Why do some people when you first meet them say, Hi I'm Fred and I'm a Vegetarian. I don't say Hi my name is Bert and I eat Sausages. I'm a Vegetarian so What? So was Hitler.

I suppose one point is better than none, but Notts should be beating sides like Newport. Lack of Fire Power needs to be addressed very quickly or the Magpies could be in for a Rocky Season.

There was a Rumour around January that A.J. was on the move, and several clubs were interested in him. Numbers were quoted between £5 to £7 Hundred Thousand. and if those Rumours were true, it could be they started playing on Jatta's mind, hence his form falling off a Cliff after January last season. He probably wasn't Helped if his Agent was always on at him to Move away from the Lane. Notts need to offer him a New Extended Contract Now, and if he refuses to sign it, then Sell Him because has it's been stated, Yes it would be awful to lose him, but better Sell Him Now when Notts could get money for him, than wait until he leaves on a Free.

Personally I think Notts will finish anywhere between 6th and 10th. Because it will take Players time to adopt to MP's methods, preseason results mean nothing once the Nitty Gritty of League Football begins. Hopefully the Magpies Head Coach will be allowed to do things his way, and get No Interference from the Director Of Football or other Board members, let MP get on with the job he's being paid to do. Swindon I think may surprise people and have every Chance of a Play off spot and may be in with a Chance of automatics. Ian Holloway is one Hell of a Coach, as he proved last season. MK Dons have to get Promoted, the amount of money they've been throwing around means anything less will be a Disaster. Chesterfield will get into the playoffs again. Keep an eye on Barnet, they have a NO Nonsense Head Coach and if he gets backing from the owners could see the Bees spring a few surprises. Salford may finally produce a decent season, they certainly had Notts number last season, beating the Magpies 3-0 at their place and 3-1 at the Lane. As for the Rest it's anyone's Guess. Data doesn't Win Games, Goals Do.

Eccles Bluebottle Neddy and Major Bloodnok are in the Sahara Dessert desperate for a Drink of water. Suddenly Neddy sees a house. A House he cry's We're Saved. No It's a Mirage replies Bloodnok Nonsense says Neddy, It's a house Eccles Bluebottle go in and see what you can find. Alright Then says Bluebottle. Suddenly the house Disappears. It's Gone Cry's Neddy. I told you it was a Mirage states Bloodnok. OOOOWWWWW Shouts Eccles. Eccles What Happened? asks Neddy. I Was Upstairs. Classic Goons. God Love Spike (Eccles) Harry (Neddy) and Peter (Bloodnok and Bluebottle) And Perhaps Bluebottle's most Famous Catchphrase. OOWWW, YOU ROTTEN SWINE, YOU DEADED ME.

Yes @Robbie there is a Crisis in English Football. Unfortunately the F.A. Doesn't Care, they are only Interested in the Premier League. And the EFL is run by a Bunch of People who haven't moved with the Times nor the Changes in the game. They seem content to let things rattle along as they are.

A Comic Talent beyond Compare. Watching this Guy in the Pink Panther Films and listening to him perform with his Fellow Goons Spike Milligan and Harry Secombe, What Time Is It Eccles Sketch is a True Classic Expresses Comedy Greatness, Not Seen Today.

@Robbie . Hey I remember her, Polly Nater nice girl, last I heard she joined the Circus and married a Fire Eater Bernie Tong. I'll get my coat.

Here's just another thought, what if your memories could be uploaded into an A.I. Android? That could be a way of living forever, or even installing your memories into a Interactive Hologram of yourself? Things like this sound far fetched Nowadays, but think what might be able to be achieved a couple decades down the line.
