Thank you for the warm welcome. I’m not entirely @new” - I’ve been absent from this forum for a while but used to regularly contribute to the natch chat but under a duffer t e.mail address and user name. My old account “died” and my e.mail also became defunct. I’ve been supporting Notts for over 60 years, many of those as a season ticket holder, former Patrons Club member, Vice President and I now enjoy home games from the “prawn sandwich” section - in the Directors Suite. For many years I posted on NCM but avoided it for the last 3 or 4 years due to a few posters dictating and taking it over with political threads rather than football related ones. Now cutscenes to have withered on the vine and us no more - so I’m happy to be back here. A bit long winded but that’s my quick intro.

Difficult situation to resolve. Palmer was certainly the “favoured” option for Maynard and he is a respected member of the squad. I don’t know if he fits the “Paterson mould” in respect of playing style and approach. Will he be a regular starter? I’m not sure he is incisive or creative enough tbh. I prefer the more robust, assertive style of leader - Turner was an inspirational captain and he possessed a bit more character & personality for my money. Of the established players I’d have thought Bedeau would be ideal but McDonald also has tge right attributes, should he be a preferred first team candidate.
