  1. @allardyces tash,THIS is the way.
  2. @themightymagpies,I get ya, and agree re; Notts' poor rewards for loyalty, but to counter, I; like many, live outwith Nottingham, I'm definitely a fan, and get to a game when I can; but I wouldn't qualify for that, nor would I stand a hope of, considering it can cost upwards of 100 quid for a ticket down south at times. I think for Kit, DEFINITELY put a restriction on how many can be purchased; especially for high-demand items (Adult medium for instance) and maybe a 'club reward system' points based, and a certain amount of points equals a level; for example: Season ticket holder: 100 points Multiple year season ticket holder: 250 points Audio Pass holder (piesplayer): 50 points Per shop purchase: 5 points per 10Β£ spent. then levels up with rewards: 50 points = 10% discount in shop 100 points = 1 free video pass for a match not on Sky etc. If something like that is implemented, a rewards based system for purchase, they can easily control the demand for things like limited edition shirts, by releasing it in the tiers, so top tier gets access 2 weeks before, mid tier gets access 1 week before, then general release. it also will encourage sign-ups to mailing lists etc meaning they can sell more ad space. I tell you, get me in front of the Notts Marketing team and we'll be buying Prem Players in no time! ;)
  3. Yeah I entered, Didn't win but got the email last week about another limited amount available for purchase. I'll drop her an email, not confident though unfortunately, Adult medium shirts are like rocking horse shite it seems!
  4. Lynn? I tried emailing the Fan Liasion manager a while back and he basically said no chance :(
  5. one hundred percent, last time they released some they were on ebay in a adult small for 130Β£! shocking effort.
  6. I fear I have missed out on my chance at a purple shirt, 3 times this season its been in my basket, ready to checkout and the time its taken for me to type my Debit Card details, shirt out of stock. The latest offing, email received at 1629 'In stock, Medium' i was on the shop page at 1633, tried to purchase 2, got a 'not enough stock' dropped it to 1, checked out at 1635. wallet grabbed, debit card typed in and BOOM, out of stock by 1638. tried to do it on the computer in case it was my phone being shite and already gone. So genuinely: Do we have the fastest fingered fans in the EFL? or is Notts on a personal mission to prevent me getting a purple shirt? is this Notts' way of telling me purple just isn't my colour? Seperately, if anyone has bought 1 too many medium purple shirts; I'll be willing to discuss a purchase! bonus if you bought two so I can sort out my marge too but every man for himself in this purple shirt wasteland. And finally, IF anyone who is in charge of Procurement and Purchasing at the club shop is reading this, if you're gonna run a limited edition next season. I AM BEGGING you, please please ensure supply matches demand... RIP Purple third kit, gone but not forgotten (at least for this 'pie)

  9. I could never get on the Crowley train (as i'm sure you're all bored of reading by now!) For me he had flashes of pure brilliance, but against Walsall in particular we were lucky not to concede after he gave the ball away in some truly favourable areas, it seems every game listening to Stall all you heard was "ball to Crowley" then you had to hold your breath for ten seconds before the inevitable "and given away to [insert team name here] and now they're on the counter!" I don't think he was our best player, I think the clubs statement speaks volumes about what kind of influence he has or rather has not got in the dressing room "Whilst Dan has certainly been an influential figure for us, following the exciting additions of Will Jarvis and Charlie Whittaker, along with the return to fitness of Conor Grant and Curtis Edwards we have many strong options in his area of the pitch and we're very confident the squad can mount a strong challenge for promotion without him.", that's about as strongly worded as you can get from a club and one which, in my opinion, demonstrates the feelings about him. Ultimately, he should know his worth, and he evidentally wasn't worth what he demanded during contract negotiations, cracking bit of business for the club, in my humble opinion his departure will cause the defenders to breathe a heavy sigh of relief, alex bass can stop practicing for when Crowleys pocket is picked and the strong options in midfield should put us altogether stronger. He's MK's problem now
  10. What a great signing. Class start to our January window. him, Jodi, Jatta up front with didzy support on occasion and we should *fingers crossed* start to regain some of our attacking threat which was massively missing with injuries.
  11. TIGHT call, i didn't think so watching the replay, but with no VAR guess i'll have to suck it up shame cause i think we deserved the draw
  12. Very unpopular opinion, but i think Crowley needs selling. He absolutely has flashes of utter brilliance, but so far twice in ten minutes where he's given the ball away, it seems every game has "crowley.... crowley to...and its given away!" his position means he can't afford to make those mistakes in the favourable positions, i think personally Notts will be much better off without his free gimmie giveaways.
  13. could not agree more with all of this, I think its obvious the players play for Stu and the assistants. Hopefully this puts the Maynard out knobbers back in their box for a bit. Can't feel more sorry for the guy losing 6/7 of his preferred starting 11 and then dealing with the maynard out crowd on the socials. hopefully January is a good time for late christmas presents ideally in midfield i think, although wouldn't say no to a Macca loan return
  14. A good game, good to see Notts return to winning ways. i was nearly dancing round the gaff after the quick-fire triple.
  15. @Robbie Stenhousemuir are top of the league so an expected defeat I'd say, in terms of immediate future they've had no shortage of offers according to the administrators. The MSP is pushing for a supporter/community ownership which I hope will come to fruition. in short term however they appear to be largely stable; the club only has ~20 staff so 100k should ensure their job security at least until the end of the season. There does seem to be an expectation that they will drop this season however, being 6 points currently behind a team thats currently in a bit of form. Question remains though as to whether a community trust can afford to pay the price that would be required. Unclear times ahead, but hopefully they can reach a resolution soon.
  16. *Puts on tin-foil hat* I'm no conspiracy theorist, however, I have suspicions that a certain ex telecoms engineer now king of the lane may have done some nifty unscrewing last night for the extra break and hopefully extra recovery time... *takes off tin-foil hat* damned shame though, games in hand give me the fear!
