Fan of Big Tone

Our old gaffer (one of our most successful managers) turned 76 today.

How come he never did this for us? ????

Morning @Robbie morning everyone, it’s raining here too and very dismal. We won’t be putting our tree up just yet to be honest we probably wouldn’t bother if the family weren’t coming to stay, we only have one tree in the lounge, I couldn’t cope with one in the bedroom. This morning we’ve been preparing our loft bedroom ready for the carpet fitters who are coming tomorrow, I’m hoping the weather will cheer up this afternoon so we can have a walk without getting wet through. Have a great Sunday everyone whatever you are doing.

This will be a really difficult match for Notts, I hope some of the walking wounded can return to boost the ranks. A draw would be a great result.

I can’t help feeling that this appointment will end in tears.

While I understand the need for the substitutions I do feel that using up all the available substitutes with a good portion of the second half still to play isn’t a good idea because your always at risk of finishing with 10 men and that exactly what happened. However we move on and look forward to meeting Walsall on Tuesday.

I didn’t go to the match but listening to the commentary it sounds like Bass made quite a few top drawer saves without which the result would have been a heavy defeat, so my vote goes to Bass.

I like Sam’s positivity and how he speaks of the bond between the players, let’s hope Notts can progress in the cup for the squads sake as much as the fans, I think a good cup run will generate cinfidence.

Well done @super_ram I tried guessing but I guessed the wrong things.

Good morning, it’s a lot milder this morning at 10 degrees, which is perfect because I’m going for my park run shortly and I don’t want to run on ice! After park run I’ll have a relaxing day recovering and listening to Notts on the radio, let’s hope we can get through to round three. Safe travels to anyone going to Peterborough. COME ON YOU PIES!

Spot on @super_ram

@Robbie I couldn’t wait to get away from work when they asked for volunteers for redundancy I stuck my hand straight up. I had a few years to go before pension age and started working with my wife until our son died then we both retired. I love retirement.

Morning all, it’s Friday, the weekend starts here. It’s a bit warmer than yesterday morning with a temperature of 3.5 degrees. I’m trying to stay off alcohol until Christmas, I drank far too much on recent holidays which isn’t good for my weight or my health, this weekend will be hard, it’s curry night tonight and I usually have a pint of beer before and a couple of glasses of wine with the curry, tonight it’ll be “God’s Ale” i.e. water, wish me luck. I could get some non alcohol beer but I’ve tried that before and not only does it taste awful it’s got just as many calories as real beer so doesn’t help the weight problem. Anyway, that’s all from me, how’s everyone else doing?

Exciting stuff @Chris looking forward to reading the newsletters.

Don’t wish for retirement unless you manage to retire early, retiring in old age is great if you have your health but as you get older you start getting things going wrong that stops you doing the things you wanted to do. That’s why we take as many holidays that we can afford before we get past it. Enjoy your youth you’ll be old before you know it.

You’re only jealous @liampie
