  1. the opening goal from the free kick from reece james was class, i did not know he was capable of taking them or placing them so well into an area no keeper would be able to save. it was the perfect opening goal, and i think the performance was quite good. a couple of moments such as the near miss when jordan pickford called for the ball but the defender continued and it led to latvia shooting wide but acceptable.
  2. it really depends on how we start and how the opposition does themselves, but it is a must win game. i think notts has to be careful and its important to avoid playing like we did against salford. teams you feel notts should do better against often sees us struggle. i can see the game being similar to the morecambe game where its largely uneventful and even at the end of the game. i would hope its not a draw but i can see it, newport are never a simple team at their ground.
  3. he is a game changing player who could help lift scunthorpe back to the efl, when hes in form hes just on a different level and was always a joy to watch when he played for us. hopefully his injuries are lessening and he is managing to find this consistency through staying injury free.
  4. maybe they should have waited for him to get the axe? unless shrewsbury were desperate to avoid paying compo and let him go without a fee.
  5. people also try to make out that they dont have enough money and want to sell the club, when it seems the billionaire who joined them in the ownership of wrexham is just future proofing their ambitions of reaching the premier league.
  6. when did the site start working again? it had been on the nottinghamshire football site instead. i dont know the fan who created it but its well researched. its good to see it back.
  7. i always liked mark fotheringham, with better players who had pace around him he would have been apricated a lot more at notts i think. his skill and technique was very good for a player and although surprised he later joined fulham i can see why they would opt for a player like him.
  8. i dont think a lot of the stick sam slocombe gets is fair, i can understand why people might think hes past his best or prone to mistakes but much of this is caused by us not playing to his strengths. expecting him to be comfortable to pass the ball with his feet, when this has never been a strong point is just a flaw in the tactics and i have been much happier to see that slocombe does not have to play it out like this. the mistake he made in the last game came from him being passed the ball, blame should be on both him and the defender, i think it was lewis macari and even though slocombe had time with a wandering striker its not the best idea when limited options are on. as backup and to fill in, hes completely fine. he should be encouraged not constantly dismissed or called out for his lack of ability because hes has been a good servant and some fans just dont like him for whatever reason but it does become a player easily blamed.
  9. i spent today picking up my mums shopping, i stayed for sunday dinner and then took mum to go see my aunt. i drove then to go see my dad, we went out for a drink. i did not have anything strong, just pepsi but it was nice to see him out. i have next week fully off, so i will need to find things to do in order to keep busy.
  10. i am glad that notts gave him time and i think its good that he has managed to move closer to home, i wished he was still here because i thought he was a good player and someone who could get goals if played as a striker. i hope hes happier in carlisle.
  11. i did not watch the game and only learned about the result now. its a good win for england, pleased to see harry kane score and the debut goal. did anyone else watch it?
  12. it really depends on if we can get back to winning ways and how long that might take, as this rate i think there is more a chance that the club will fall out of the playoffs. i still believe we have the squad that can finish in the automatics, but we are not playing like it. the amount of teams who are grinding out results and showing a clearer ability to score goals, whereas even when we are able to score, we concede one more and it undoes the effort. the playoffs is going to be such a gamble for any team that makes it but i think we need to try to at least finish within them. 8 games remain, we need to see a dramatic increase in form. the rollercoaster of a season has done the loopty loop and notts are now faces the point of the biggest drop. doncaster and bradford being two remaining games, those will be hard. donny and port vale have a game in hand, we lost the chance of making ours count. i would hope as our season excels to the final point of the ride we are able to keep within the playoffs at least.
  13. i was aware he was a boxer, but i knew him better has the face of the george foreman grills. not that i dont appreciate that he won the world title twice or had some amazing fights. rest in peace, george foreman.
  14. from start to finish i thought matt palmer was class, some of his passing was brilliant and more so the balls which cut through the crewe defence. he played a blinder which was pin point to david mcgoldrick who unfortunately was not able to control the ball, but had he done he would have been clean through to have a chance in the first 20 minutes against their keeper. i wished we had tested them more, filip marshall did not look the best but i really do feel palmer did a lot of positives yesterday.

  16. hello, @arb welcome to pon. its great to have you here with us.
  17. welcome to pon @Lullapie, you have a great username! i hope to see you around the site.
  18. welcome to pon @ASHLEY GUY, good to see you join us.
  19. i agree, dont use var for penalties and make sure the ref watches the player striking the ball and the assistant watches the keeper. i dont believe the penalty should have been disallowed because it was all in one movement and even watching back, you cant tell which foot strikes the ball first but with it being in one instant motion i think that is a enough to apply common sense.
  20. you learn something new every day, i never heard about the backstory of it and its a great read. i wonder if johnny bostock can count himself lucky that cedwyn scott scored in the playoff final? otherwise some notts fans might have took his miss out of him more than what happened.
  21. i wished it would have been something i experienced during my years of supporting notts, we were pretty average and woeful until munto came along and the fake money lifted us. so thankful for the years we have had now under the reedtz but the 90s is a special time.
  22. how am i only just learning about this, the comments are funny but at least hes speaking some sense. i do think hes speaking more out of frustration which is making him a little too honest. its not the response you want trying to secure a league one place. mansfield fans will like it, but he is blaming the players and taking no accountability for his or nigel cloughs actions.
  23. good luck to the womens team, i hope they feel happy with how the season has gone and manage to claim a victory to seal off the amazing progress they have made.
  24. went for a bike ride earlier, locked my bike up near wollaton hall and went for a jog around the the lake. its nice that we are finally getting nicer days back to back. i am at home now, and just going through the forums. hope everyone is also enjoying today.
  25. @Fan of Big Tone has his holidays, @Piethagoram appears to enjoy nature and visiting places where he can get to grips with nature. i enjoy going for bike rides when the weather is nice, i also enjoy regular walks but not so much when its cold. aside from work and football, i dont do a lot and i am stuck in a very routine way of life. its a good thing, as i dont like making changes if i can because its harder with being autistic. i do think its good to explore other things though, so i wonder if the community feel like sharing what they do outside of football?
