Why worry about it? Alex Bass has left now. He did well while he was with us, and we’ve got good memories to keep. We don’t even support Peterborough United, so if they cancelled the friendly, that’s up to them. And if Notts cancelled it for some reason, it doesn’t really change anything either. It’s not a big deal.

Some people who didn’t like him before will now say nice things, but they didn’t really support him when it mattered. That feels a bit fake. Stuart’s message is a kind goodbye. I don’t think he failed, he just didn’t grow or learn as fast as the club needed. The board thought it was time to try something new, and I get that. I just hope it turns out to be the right move. I really want Martin Paterson to do well and help the club succeed, just like I hoped Stuart would.

I saw it online and had to make sure it was real. At first, it felt like one of those made-up stories someone posts as a bad joke. I was shocked when I found out it was true. It’s really sad news. Diogo Jota was a really good player, and it feels so unfair. He will be missed a lot, and hearing about this just makes everything feel even sadder.

To be fair, it does help us see how our thoughts change over time. It’s like a test to see what we think now compared to later. I get why some people think it’s too soon. Things are still starting up, and we don’t know everything yet. Right now, I don’t think we’ve got enough new stuff or got much better than last season. It still feels the same.

I don’t feel like Notts will go for promotion right now. If we don’t go on a good run, I think the best we can hope for is making the play-offs. We really need a strong goalkeeper and more players who can score goals, especially someone who can do what David McGoldrick did. Even though the squad is good, it feels like we’re missing a lot. It doesn’t seem like we’ve got better yet, and I don’t think going up is possible at the moment.

Hearing at school that Notts had sold Alex Bass made it feel like the day had taken a real turn for the worse. At first, I didn’t think it was true, but it’s happened. All I can do now is try to focus on who’s coming in. I feel quite unsure about the pre-season at the moment. Hopefully there are no more shocks to dampen the mood further.

The comments show how much of an impact Alex Bass had at Notts in just one season. He became a key player and clearly made a big impression. I’m disappointed we’ve sold him, but to be fair, I didn’t expect someone of his quality to arrive in the first place. There are still lots of decent goalkeepers available, definitely more than free-scoring strikers. I trust the club to find the right one to come in and do the job.

I thought Sam Austin was a decent player to have in the squad. I reckon he’ll do well at Southend. He just needed to stand out a bit more for us near the end of the season. But back when we were in the National League, he was proper good.

When I grow up, I want to work in graphic design and maybe be an architect too. I think both jobs sound really cool. I’m already pretty good at using Photoshop. I’ve made lots of thumbnails for my friends’ YouTube channels. It’s fun to be creative and make things look awesome.

The club is in safe hands because the Reedtz brothers are building it up with better stuff and changes behind the scenes. At first, they worked on making things better on the pitch. Now for the last few years, they've also been improving things off the pitch. That helps us get ready for promotion and makes the club stronger. What they’re doing now will help in the future too. Instead of waiting until we’re in a higher league, they’re sorting things out bit by bit already. It might feel slow to some fans, but that’s how football works sometimes. I thought the interview was really good. I’m glad we’ve got owners who use the media properly. Even though it would’ve helped to have the interview earlier when we were getting a new head coach, I still liked it. Maybe just a short and honest update would’ve helped stop the silence.

Isn’t most English tea brought in from places like India or China? That’s what I thought anyway. I don’t think what he did was right. It wasn’t a good choice. He could’ve made a proper business instead, like other people said. That would’ve been better.

It’s a good first draw, so that’s a nice start. I really hope we do well in the league and the FA Cup too. Both are important and we should try our best in them. It’s good to have that winning feeling and to keep pushing to do well in the league as well.

Going to the MLS might be a nice way for him to finish his career. It’s not a bad place to end up. I always wanted him to do better at Oxford United. I thought he could prove himself there and maybe get picked by a big team in Portugal. If that happened, maybe he could’ve played for the national team a few times. That would’ve been cool.

I don’t really like trialists that much. Most of the time, they’re not quite ready to play in the first team and just end up on the bench. I know that’s not always true, but I’d rather we bring in players from other teams. That way we get stronger, even if we do give them a go in friendlies before paying for them. The free players in this case don’t always look that great. They don’t really stand out or feel special.

Thanks! Now there’s a welcome box where the error used to be. It says hello and makes the site feel nicer.

Thanks! I’ve wanted to join since I was eight, but my mum and dad only said yes not long ago. I’m turning 12 in October. I’ve supported Notts my whole life. Both my parents are big fans. They’ve had season tickets way longer than I’ve even been alive. I’ve had my own season ticket since I was six. My favourite player is Matt Palmer, I think he’s really good.

I don’t get why the EFL still does this. Ever since they put in the Premier League B teams, there’s been loads of arguments about it. The cup doesn’t really make sense anymore. Not many people care about it. If a small club wants to get to Wembley, there are better ways to do it.

Sorry, but I don’t agree. I think it’s not a great choice for someone his age to make. To me, it kind of shows that Ruben Rodrigues might not get to a bigger team in Europe now. It’s a bit like when Max Power went to play in Saudi Arabia. I liked watching Rodrigues and I’ve got good memories of him, but this makes it feel like he’s not aiming as high anymore. Even if he plays in a top league in Brazil, it doesn’t really feel like a big moment in his career, does it.

I think he got badly hurt. I don’t remember seeing him play for Notts, but people say his dad was really good. I hope he does well at Shrewsbury Town.

Rotherham United are good at picking players who need a chance. They just have to fit into how the team plays. If he joins them, I reckon he’ll do alright.

I think the safe standing bit is ready now. When my dad got our season tickets, we saw that you can pick seats in the safe standing area in the KOP.

I saw a message on the dashboard page saying there’s a theme error. It told me I should try using the support tool to fix it. I don’t really know what it means. It looked a bit weird. Do you think someone can help me with this? Or should I just ignore it.
