i am nervous but i think notts have looked much better at home. its that opening nerves and pushing to score which notts lacks right now. i think if we use the aerial threat that we have the score will be in favour of us. -
think this season will see meadow lane being where notts picks up the most points, i am hoping for a win but see it ending as a draw.
-
@GrannyPie has tipped notts to win over on the facebook page, so that is good enough for me. i think notts will be more prepared to play yeovil, previous encounters i think they worked better as a team and had much more pace. i think we have turned the tables, think we will win 3-0. dennis, kelly-evans and booty to score.
-
did notts deserve to win 5-1? yes i think so. the second half notts played some of the best football against a very decent team. the scoreline does not take anything away from them, if anything it should aid them towards becoming better as in the first half they looked a very strong side.
-
if they use the nickname magpies, notts needs to win. ???? maybe ardley will have to let o brien and some of the others sit the game out.
-
not sure what went wrong, it sounds like jim o brien really messed up by scoring the own goal but i guess thats pressure.
-
wrexham are another good side in this league, think they will play like newport and attempt to slow down the game where possible. i hope notts start with two strikers, this is key right now. hope dennis is fired up to bag him another goal or two.
-
massive result, pleased to see the players silence those banging on about jon stead still being good enough for us. move on! get behind the win and lets try to build from here.
-
notts just needs to play well enough to get the fans behind them, stockport county did that and their fans lifted them. it would be annoying in my eyes for barnet to be louder than us, i will be singing regardless but i am not so sure notts will win.
-
i am looking forward to seeing the game, it will be a real chance for me to see what the players play like together. im keen to see how the signings do, i think with the home support it will take some of the edge of the game. not sure about if notts will win but a draw seems about right.
-
good capture, someone who could partner pierce bird well.
-
i think the game will end in a 1-1 draw but still be a decent performance. i hope i am wrong about the score tho, notts getting off to a good start would be massive.
-
why are fans now moaning about jon stead having been released? most on social media seemed delighted we had released him. ????♂️
-
i read it as places near to seaside sorts myself, they are very close to the sea. if the games fall on the right day, coaches could go for a trip before kick off.
-
wise words of advice for the next owners and a great read!
-
i think between osborne and crawford, notts just needs to find the right experience to help bring their development out. its all about confidence for me. pierce bird thrived coming in when being given a chance. it did not help that he did not have a player who settled in the role alongside him but there are a wide number of underused players that should be given a chance. i dont rate oxlade-chamberlain though. he seems to be all pace and no skill.

Pride of Nottingham's Liampie has spoken to fellow Notts County fans Melvyn Watson, "Magpie Moomin" and Joe Maskrey about their thoughts on the season just gone. Q1: Do you feel Neal Ardley should remain as Notts County manager? MW: “Stability is required at NCFC so I believe we should keep NA as manager, he is a wheeler dealer in the transfer market and has good contacts, he is passionate about NCFC. Not being able to show authority with senior players that he did not sign, his substitutions showed a fear of not losing.” MM: “I don't feel Neal has bought anything to the team - I would prefer big Kev to come back.” JM:"Yes keep him in charge, as he took Wimbledon out of that division, so he has proved he can do it." Q2: Relegation to the Vanarama National League means that Notts are no longer the “Oldest Professional Football League Club”, firstly how did relegation feel for you? And secondly are you saddened to see the club lose the title? MW: “I was totally gutted the way we were relegated, certain players did not feel the pain as much as the fans, regarding losing out title, I think it will devalue the saleable asset of our club but when we get back in the league, it will be regained.” MM: "I like all Notts fans were absolutely gutted to see us go down and although Forest are claiming our title its only on loan for one season.” JM: "Gutted for us to be relegated, but knew it was coming. Yes, also gutted to see us lose the title." Q3: Notts took over 2,000+ fans to the Swindon game, do you feel the support can continue within the Non League? MW: “We will still get 3500 to 4500 fans at home and take the same usual fans to away games as we have superb fans.” MM: “yes we will have big support in our non league campaign because when your black and white your black and white for life no matter what league we are in.” Joe Maskrey "I feel the fans will still go to matches in good numbers, IF they still support us." Q4: When the takeover finally completes, do you want Alan Hardy to remain as the clubs chairman? MW: “I believe if Alan Hardy remains in any capacity at NCFC the supporters will desert our club, he needs to never enter Meadow Lane again after the sale.” MM: "No to AH he is a spent force we need change through out the whole club top to bottom.” JM: "NO WAY! Hardy should leave, and hand the baton to another chairman to take us in a fresh and another direction." Q5: In summary, how would you describe this past League Two season and what can the club learn from it? MW: “This season has been a nightmare for all NCFC fans, so much hope at the start of the season, the running of the club and the recruitment from the off was very poorly done, I do not believe the manager at the time did not have enough input on who was kept and who was recruited, as for having 3 managers in one season again was the downfall of our club, the chairman was playing with our club and had no idea how to run a professional football club. The new owners need a person with experience of running a club and have the authority to hire the manager and players he wants as well as restructuring the staff at the club and make a priority to get a recruitment person in ASAP, cut the playing staff down to a maximum of 25.” MM: “what I have learned about the last season is that the only people who care about Notts County football club are the fans, owners/managers/players just don't have anywhere near the pride or passion that us fans have, they are there at the end of their careers to take a wage. How many times have you read comments like if they played with the same pride as the fans singing loud and proud week in week out we would be in the Championship.” JM: "This season has been a disaster! The club can only learn from this. Changing management so early in a season was a big no no, so to learn from that is KEY. When the new owners take over, they should know where NOT to go wrong."

great pics again @Chris, well done for supporting a charity game and working to promote it. -
-
well done chris ???????????????? -
-
yeah this is a great picture. -
im getting more nervous about what if swindon do play youngsters and they want to impress their manager, notts just has to go for it.
-
think the focus needs to be on putting the ball in their net and keeping it out of ours, the way we play does not matter. the results do, so i hope cambridge can do us a favour and win the game.
-
the team has done well to keep it there, i just wished they had picked a few more points up to make it easier.
-
hope this got through to them.

passionate @ARLukomski
