Fan of Big Tone

There’ll be some whisky drank tonight that’s for sure. 😂

I’m surprised the police haven’t objected about this proposed fan zone it seems crazy two opposing fans tanked up on alcohol making their way to the match over Trent Bridge at the same time, it’s a recipe for disaster.

Did anyone watch this match, it was crazy. Scotland need a win to qualify for the World Cup. Scotland went 1-0 up early on with a great bicycle kick goal from McTominay, Denmark equalised with a pen in the second half, a dubious decision after a foul which was deemed to be just inside the box, after a lengthy wait for var. Denmark had a player sent off for a second yellow and Scotland went 2-1 up, 4 minutes later on 82 mins Denmark equalised again. In 90+3 minutes Scotland went ahead 3-2, then on 90+8 mins with Denmark chasing an equaliser and Kasper Schmeichel out of his goal, McLean scored from 35 yards. To put Scotland through to the World Cup finals. What a match.

On Saturday Notts welcome Colchester United to Meadow Lane. How many links can we find between the clubs, players, managers, coaches etc. My starter for ten is Liam Chilvers who played for Notts on loan in 2001-2002 making 9 appearances and scoring 1 goal, he played for Colchester between 2003 and 2006 making 113 appearances scoring 3 goals. He turned up at Notts again in 2010-2012 and made 38 appearances with no goals. (Source Wikipedia) Can you spot a link between Notts and Colchester?

It’s an incredible story, Russell King was/is a very clever man, he even managed to dupe heads of government, he lived a lavish lifestyle on other people’s money ruining people’s lives along the way, the trail even went as far as North Korea when he took Sven with him to try and set up a minerals deal. The take over of Notts County was only a small part of what he was involved in. It’s a shame he used his talents in such a nefarious way. It’s well worth a watch if you get chance.

Oh dear @Robbie i bet that was a bit of a shock. I hope you get it sorted, it’s a good excuse not to wash up though. 😉 I’m surprised you haven’t got a dishwasher, we got a small slimline on a year or so ago, it’s just big enough for the two of us and it’s brilliant, we just dump the pots in it when we’ve finished with them and whe t’s full switch it on and hey presto a few hours later they are shiny clean. In other news it’s a bit brass monkeys out there the temperature dropped to 0.6 overnight, which has reminded me that I need to cover up the outside tap, I don’t want it freezing.

My takeaway thought from the match is not to get tickets for the back of the pavis stand, not only is it exhausting getting up there but it takes ages to get out as everyone lower down get on the stairways first. My takeaway on the actual match is that I hope MP gives Jarvis a run in the team.

You’re lucky my early season form never started.

Good morning it’s a lovely bright start to the day but a tad chilly at only 3 degrees. 🥶 We are going to wrap up and go for a walk, we need a few bits from Morrisons so we’ll do a circular route to get our daily step target. How is everyone? What does the day have in store for you?

Thanks @Robbie i didn’t know it was on.

That sounds logical @Piethagoram if that is the case then I think we can forgive them, it’s certainly sounds like they might have been stuck with a load of shirts that couldn’t be used then some bright spark had the idea of selling them asa “fans shirt”, fair enough. I’ve never heard of a fans shirt before maybe if lots of fans buy them they’ll do one every season.

This documentary is on Sky Documentaries at 8.00 pm tonight. It tells the story of Russell King and the Munto takeover of Notts County. It should be a good watch.

@Chris I wonder if this is wise being so close to the nest which is used by opposition fans for Forest matches, you can imagine trouble as opposing fans coming out of the nest and meeting up with Forest fans from their fan zone, a recipe for trouble surely.

@Robbie Hmmm, here’s a screen shot of the introductions section of the forum you can choose a page number. This is mobile view on my iPhone.

@Robbie I’ve just checked on my mobile and it’s available, obviously you need to look at a topic with more than one page, it’s at the bottom of the page.

@Robbie if I am understanding you correctly I think you can go straight to a numbered page, see this screenshot. Is this what you mean?

I tend to agree with @Robbie taking on Belshaw at his age would be short term, we need to find a youngish goalkeeper we can develop, I don’t think Griffiths is the answer from what I’ve seen of him.
