Fan of Big Tone

No not Ivan Hampton my memory is playing tricks, it was Tony Bircumshaw and Peter Bircumshaw both played for Notts, I can remember Tony quite well he was a hard tackling full back from the same era as Ivan Hampton.

I was thinking Chris Short too. Going years back to the 60’s there was a player called Ivan Hampton I think he had an older brother who played for Notts.

Welcome home David, I’m really excited to see him in the black and white stripes again, once he starts banging goals in we’ll all wonder why there were any doubts.

That’s true. ????

Wordle 721 4/6 ⬜⬜⬜????⬜ ????⬜⬜????⬜ ⬜???????????????? ???????????????????? Not bad.

I would ask them if they’d thought about giving fans who’d been supporting Notts for over 60 years a free season ticket for life and free pie and pint at every game.

We certainly do need to strengthen the defence and @Chris has obviously done his homework, I’m sure the recruitment team will be looking at different options and possibly @Chris’s suggestions my indeed be amongst them.

I can’t wait to see Jodi play against some of Englands finest, he has deserved this with all his hard work, good luck Jodi.

I first joined Pride of Nottingham in 2012 when it was in its infancy, it’s incredible how it has grown since then into a leading forum and website, not only for Notts fans but football fans in general, @Chris has done an absolutely amazing job and he certainly deserves a lot of credit. I really don’t know how he finds the time to devote so much of his life to it. Well done Chris.

Yes I am.

@Chris I go to the website I didn’t know there was an app. https://www.nytimes.com/games/wordle/index.html

It is important to reward loyal fans and it’s also important to attract new fans with things which might tempt them to attend, as others have said exciting football and winning games will also attract floating football fans. Fans can also do their bit to attract younger fans by dragging their sons, daughters, grandchildren, nephews, nieces etc. nout of their bedrooms and off their games machines to a match or two, soon (especially if they have a good time) it will become a habit. I did this with my grandsons at an early age, the eldest is now a die hard Notts fan, I’m still working on his younger brother who originally insisted he was a Fword fan because the players came to his school and dished out shirts, somehow his shirt was “lost” ????. He has been to a few Notts matches and I think he is starting to enjoy them, especially this last season. Fingers crossed he can be turned into a lifelong fan.

Thank you everyone, I enjoyed doing the interview and @Chris has done a great job putting it together. Sorry about my ugly mug in the photo. ????

Unless we go back.

I’ll be honest I can’t really remember him might be just my awful memory or if he was awful perhaps I’ve blotted him out. ????

Wordle 713 4/6 ⬜????⬜⬜⬜ ⬜⬜????⬜⬜ ⬜⬜????????⬜ ???????????????????? Average 4 today, how did you do @Piethagoram?

Now Notts are promoted into the league I must admit I will probably still keep an eye on the National League to see how our old rivals are faring, particularly Chesterfield, I used to work there and have a lot of friends who are Spirerite fans so I will be hoping they are promoted so we can renew our rivalry in the league but of course by then we’ll be in League One won’t we? Anyone interested in keeping tabs on National League?

A very interesting read thank you @Simon Clark as Liam says you’ve gone to a lot of trouble and hard work to write it.
