when we watch how we pass the ball, there is no doubt we would have more of the possession in our own half and this upcoming season it needs to be improved. we need to be braver going forward, less afraid of losing the ball. 70+ percent in our own half shows the lack of attacking effort. i really feel with a stronger defence, less pressure on creating chances will give our better players more freedom.

hello, welcome to pon @Helen C Green.

tobi did better last season when he played than he did our promotion year, issue is he was quite clueless at defending and could not head a ball. i liked him but we made the right decision to let him go. good luck to him at rochdale.

he looks a good signing, coming from blackburn will mean he had something about him that a team like us could get out of him. i do wonder what bradford city fans will be thinking, but i dont pay attention so much to this because i know players can be different in other squads. i am pleased with the signing, its a good first addition to the squad.

i think quality will always be something that is the best thing for a ambitious club, football experience in general is a good thing and whilst we may have a few who have played higher and outside of the football league its quite mixed. we sign players based on them improving and that is the best method in my eyes, some league two players might not make the grade if promotion is gained and i just think quality signings are the best policy.

the sensible thing would be to make sure premier and league clubs have clauses in the players contracts to cover to cover relegation, it might be difficult for clubs to retain players but i think it would open up the market and make teams more wiser with spending. i think parachute payments should be scrapped because it gives teams a better chance of signing players at least at the top levels.

its intended to help with balancing the wages but some teams use it to sign them which is just unfair.

maybe stricter rules on how the money is spent needs to be implemented if they dont scrap them completely.

i am pleased that crawley were promoted, i thought they deserved it based on how they had performed over the course of the season and in the playoffs.

i dont see premier league teams voting in support of scrapping it, it can work but its been rushed into the game before those who use it can really handle the decisions which need to be made. it needs to be clearer and simplified.

professional foul all day long, i dont know how anyone could just get a yellow for that. regardless of the area, its blatant hand ball and he did it solely to stop the attack. i fear without strong punishment others could replicate this stupid behaviour.

any form of cheating needs to stamped out severely, but hand balls like this is an easy red for me.

welcome to pon @R H.

i still think its how we implement it that makes the difference, but the current system is making things a joke. although i dont think forest fans can continue to blame var, the officials and the premier league. they broke the rules and thats that,

i really hope we invest in bringing defenders that can allow notts to be more attacking minded without the fear of conceding at the back. a solid unit from goal to attack would be great. i am looking forward to seeing who signs for us.

nice list @ARLukomski.

the thing that baffles me the most is how the the fa have been pumping money into the grass roots as a means to improve football throughout, along with giving players a better chance of training to become premier league players or just good players at whatever level. yet they constantly side with the premier league and screw over the smaller clubs. its very disappointing because many lower tier players get spotted by these games. jamie vardy for example, i see no reason why scrapping them makes sense.

premier league teams could use replays as a way to integrate more of their own youngsters into the game as a way to get them embedded within the first team.

@liampie nk slaven belupo stadium capacity is only around 3k Trying to compete in their domestic league against giants like Hajduk Split is a tall order, capacity 33k. The financial gulf is great

oh i know, the results were to be expected but the sacking for me was not.

my comment was more about the people in charge of the clubs hiring and firing.

i renewed, i have asked my dad and uncle if they are. i cant see why not but i would not miss the chance to watch notts. its somewhere i really enjoy going and will aim to do every away game again next season.

good bye for now jim, i hope at some point you will return as a coach or even as an assistant/head coach one day. you have the right mentality to do well in the role.

we could do with a bit of fire power in midfield but we still have dan crowley and jodi jones who can score. sam austin is someone who can popup at the right time. defensively, it would be nice to have a few able scorers at the back. if kyle cameron can chip in next season it might redeem him amongst some fans. goals is something the club needs to look at but defensively is the most crucial area as is the goal itself.

its good news, i hope it benefits the lives of people greatly and can spot illnesses in time for them to be treated.

i dont really care to be honest, it will be nice not to play mansfield but annoying to see the rivalry between chesterfield resume. they will be expecting to do better than us, so i hope whoever does goes up can out shine even them.

sacked by nk slaven belupo for only winning 1 game in 7, their owners did not stand by their decision much did they? good luck to him with this move.

i am pleased for derby, they deserved to go up and its just a shame that portsmouth was just so good this season because it could have been a interesting title race between both teams. derby did well to get back up after dropping off a bit but it is always nice see a good team doing well.

congratulations @super_ram.

yeah home tomorrow, sunday i dont have any plans. my mums with my aunt, so no need to fetch shopping. it would be nice if the weather was good as i might go out for a walk or bike ride.

it comes from a guy who did a hate speech towards white people, missing the point that to get other ethnic groups into something it takes the opportunity and encouragement. hes very deluded and is ruining scotland. he has one vision and it comes across hitlerish.

@Robbie 

the goalkeeper was put under pressure and distributed a poor ball for suttons first goal.

defensively everyone stood ball watching in the swindon defence, with some players hoping it was offside. not much defending here.

their second what was the swindon keeper doing again?

the third goal for sutton comes from a lack of defending too.

if we needed further proof of defences just standing still when they are needed, this 100% proves that.
