    Yes, welcome to Josh. I don't know that much about him but I think I remember seeing him on the EFL highlights programme last season for Portsmouth, which must be a good thing, he must have done something good to be on the highlights programme, I'm guessing?
  2. Pies79
    This is a real blow. As I still feel that there are not that many players that can pick the ball up and drive forward the way he can. At least the squad is stronger than it was last year and so hopefully the impact of his absence will be felt less. It is positive that he should be back in January and not out for longer, the guys a legend and what a positive statement from him.
  3. Pies79
    To be honest I never thought he was that convincing. I can't recall him making a proper dive or really getting off the ground. I think its a good move for him to get some game time and hopefully build confidence. Although I do think Notts should have a third keeper, whether that's Slocombe at second or third and I still think that we should have kept Brooks.

    It is a worry with several players injured already. The squad is definitely stronger and therefore can counter the impact of injured players better. But still, after watching yesterday's game, it still seems that the key players to hold the ball and drive forward are few, such as Jones, Crowly and Tsaroulla and with one of them potentially out for a bit, do we need more players to take up this mental and attitude of driving forwards?

    I sit in the Pavis and do wish that the crowd would get a little more involved sometimes with the singing etc but no one around me seems to be negative, I think the signs for 'Maynard out' last season were coming from sections of the Kop as far as I remember

    Why wasn't the EFL highlights programme on this past Saturday (7th Sept)? I know there was the international break but league 2 still played and some games in league 1.
  7. Pies79
    I am sure he must be a good player, but did we need another midfielder? Alongside Robertson, Hinchy, Grant, Austin, Edwards, Crowley and Palmer?
  8. Pies79
    I would definitely like to see Tsaroulla start, as I thought he was very impressive. I would like Robertson and Plamer to start in midfield but going by what Maynard had said Previously, I think Palmer will being coming on as sub for a few more games before he starts. I would also quite like to see Gordon start, where I am not sure, but maybe as right wingback, Tsaroulla at left wingback, Platt, Bedeau and Macari across the back, with Jones sat between the midfielders and the forwards.
  9. Pies79
    Nick Tsaroulla put in a great shift from when he came on. Moving forwards, good runs, passing and tackles. First I have seen of him and was very impressed. Great to see Matty Palmer back!

    I thought the ticker on the app was good during the Shrewsbury game. Better than the Google live score, as the timeline on that only provides updates on goals, cards and substitutions, where as, the ticker on the Notts app is more detailed and provides updates more regularly.
  11. Pies79
    It would be very sad to see Crowley go to. He is a key player, we can't just keep selling players as soon as another club is interested. I think as someone else said, maybe Notts now need to concentrate on offering new contracts and retaining some key players like Crowley and Jones, maybe even at the expense of bringing in any new players at this time.
  12. Pies79
    I didn't think the line up was that bad and unfortunately there will be many times that you cannot play your strongest team especially with such a small squad. I wouldn't have gone with Slocombe in goal, but other than, that with quite a few injuries, what can you do, could have perhaps made some changes earlier and it is disappointing, considering the start Notts got off to, but it was a draw against a league 1 team, only decided by penalties. I don't think Maynard can take all the blame, the players are the guys on the pitch and are professional footballers, but none the less, ultimately a disappointing result and was hoping for better.
  13. Pies79
    Gutted, with such a thin squad, surely we shouldn't be getting rid of any more players, only bringing more in.
  14. Pies79
    Bit saddened that the programmes are stopping, used to always like getting a programme. More recently have just purchased them for particular games but I suppose the demand just isn't there anymore.
  15. Pies79
    Is the orange one just plain? Or is there a subtle pattern to it?
  16. Pies79
    If it is Dajaune Brown, what do we think to him, is he any good? I don't know anything about him other than connections to Derby and Gateshead.
  17. Pies79
    Not sure if the query about whether Notts would charge fans on match day to enter The Nest has already been answered. Butbi collected my season ticket today and on the leaflet that comes with it, it states "we're excited to offer the Nest as a best in class pre and post match destination. Access is from Ironmonger Road and entry is free.
  18. Pies79
    I was feeling more positive about the season but following the recent pre season performances and results I am not as confident. I thought the defence had been strengthened but we have conceded quite a few goals in the last few games, some late on and own goals which is worrying. Alongside this, goals are generally not seeming as easy to come by. Last season we scores a lot and conceded a lot, arw we now going to conceded a lot and not score as many? I was hoping that Scott would start to make his mark and get his name on the score sheet but this hasn't happened although Jatta and Didzy have now scored a few, which is good, but as others have stated I would like to see the introduction of another striker as another option.
  19. Pies79
    I am a bit loss for words. I know these are only pre season games but I really thought we would look al ot stronger defensively and we would have had more consistent results through the pre season, and by this stage, we would have been winning at least the last two games against York and Boston. Currently feeling a little unsure about the season ahead. Hopefully it is just down to the changes and taking a little time to gel as a unit.
  20. Pies79
    Hopefully we will be able to attend all of the home games with the exception of a couple due to being away. For away games, Hopefully get to attend at least a few. First away game done, as we went up to York for the pre season friendly.
  21. Pies79
    Yes! A new player announced! wait, oh no, its just the kit guy . Still, all the best to him though.
  22. Pies79
    I have just read an article stating that both John Bostock and Will Randall, have recently played in a game for Swindon as trialists, against the U21 Southampton team.
  23. Pies79
    That's a really tough question and like people have said, it may be a little to early but i'll give it a shot: Bass, Tsaroulla, Gordon, Platt, Bedeau, Robertson, Crawley, Jones, Edwards, Jatta, Scott. Would have said Palmer but not sure if he will be fit. Did just see an article saying that Newport County have rejected some offers for their striker, Evans, wonder of one of these offers may have been from County
  24. Pies79
    Hopefully based on Notts county's statement that was released when Langstaff was sold, there is still hope of another striker as the statement said "we have, of course, been factoring his potential departure into our plans as we look to build a highly-competitive squad this summer."
  25. Pies79
    Definitely agree Robbie, I think I bore everyone I speak to about the current squad numbers being very thin on the ground. I also agree with maybe another defender and midfielder but would like to see a new striker, as I do not have much confidence in Junior Morias.
