  1. hello, welcome to the pride of nottingham. we are a very friendly community @Michelle Robson. i hope you become part of that.
  2. play on, build confidence in the squad we have because all the players who are on international duty can be covered for a single game. jodi has looked better since crewe, but we do have other options. the biggest loss would be jacob bedeau but i agree it could give someone else the minutes and see if it can force another defender to step up as we have seen with rod mcdonald since matty platt has been inconsistent and injured.
  3. martin paterson said when he arrived that he wanted his players to be used in the right way and that they need to be played to their strengths and not asked to do something that is outside of their skill set. without matt palmer in this notts squad, we would be lost much like we were in our first season back when he got injured. palmer plays such an important role that it helps to get the best out of other players. he makes everything seem so simple, but hes not a natural goalscorer. hes a provider and a creative midfielder who is the link in our chain. scott robertson flourishes alongside palmer, take palmer out of the squad a lot of players do not seem the same. john bostock suffered from this, and he ended up being released because he just was not the same player as he could be alongside our skipper. a lot of people are harsh on players, especially conor grant. he works so hard on the ball and can make things happen, he just does not seem to be a natural goalscorer but i think he could improve given the chance. whereas i think palmer is set in his ways and we are fortunate to have him in our team.
  4. busier week than ever at work, a lot of overturns and organising. i dont have any more training now until a few months time, when i have to re do certain ones but i did enjoy doing the further management courses. outside of work, i have not got up to much but i have been thinking about joining a gym. there is one about 15 minutes from me near tesco but i am not so sure. i dont feel like cycling in the rain or cold, but i like to keep active. with swindon being postponed now, i want to find something else to do on saturday because i want to avoid the boredom and lack of no notts. with the internationals its not like i go watch derby or another local championship or league one team.
  5. well done rod mcdonald, pleased to see another pon man of the match won by him.
  6. i thought tyrese hall was class, he was my man of the match. i think we should have kept him on but the changes martin paterson made did inject what was starting to lack. i just thought hall looked like he owed the role hes now playing for us.

  8. welcome to the pon community, we are delighted to have you @Dave78.
  9. how are bradford city managing when they were cash strapped in league two, and were paying a million a year just to play at the valley parade? they spent 35k on a striker and that was a big deal. their manager moaned about about the cost of players in league one being inflated, but they signed early and considering they are top of league one it seems to be working. what notts needs to do is continue with the high gates recites, which is why the match day price increase had been disappointing to me. yes it falls inline with other clubs but that increase was not needed to be made. it has taken us from being regularly over 10-12k to below. i think the first season back in league one would be a test for us when we get there, but there are many things which could help. if we sold a player or two, and made sure to reinvest then that would help. i don't think it would be a big gulf, not like the championship would be.
  10. well done to the notts womens team and takiah parkes.
  11. the victorian era was probably one of the most stunning for architecture there was some periods where it was hit and miss, some where it was fugly such as tudor. but modern design a very much a eye sore when it goes wrong and it usually seems to.
  12. rest in peace, my dad used to watch cricket all the time and spoke about dickie bird being right. 🙃
  13. @menzinho, i did not think he would be a regular player. i thought it would be jacob bedeau, matty platt and lewis macari. i thought his time would be further limited when we signed lucas ness and this season with sonny aljofree coming in. the defence looks pretty much set, and it looked like he would only be cover for injury or used as rotation but he has really flipped the tactics book. i cant see him being replaced easily, even when matty platt does return but its a good problem to have.
  14. the worrying thing is how often roos makes a mistake or a poor decision, his position is very important and these things can cost us. i am not sure he would have been able to save crewes first effort even if he was stood up, he was left unprotected and it would have been a very quick thing for him to react too. he cant be blamed for not saving the penalty, that is just unfair but i dont see him as being all that dependable when it comes to them. i know some did not think sam slocombe could save them but i think he would before roos. we need to protect him a little better but he does need to reduce the amount of mistakes that happens, it looked like he had and i hope it was just an off game.
  15. i just hope that martin paterson does see it as a chance for some of the players to remain in form, whilst giving others a chance. the last time we played in the efl trophy the squad was very unbalanced. barnsley will rip us a part if we repeat that. we dont need to give fans a reminder as to how much we are missing david mcgoldrick.
  16. i dont seem to have as much time in the day right now, i come home from work wanting to rest and by time i have its late. i need to try to get on here during my breaks and dinner when i have little to do. work has been very routine, the rainy days has kept me in work. it will be picking up soon due to the christmas rush, then things become a lot more hectic and demanding. outside of work i have not done much other than having been to crewe at the weekend. i went straight into work and whilst my job has slow and busy days, i do like it and earning my first wages was really exciting. it depends on if you want a job for the long term, or if studying will help you earn more or get the job you want. good luck. 🙂
  17. good to see hes working in football, i hope he can see the difference that he make s and i wish him all the best with his future. it seems a bright one, he may end up in management one day.
  18. @McPie, Robertson played well too, amongst all the scraps he had directed towards himself, he held his own and stayed in the game as we needed. we could have easily seen him or jodi walk due to the frustrations but they applied it to their performance.
  19. for the most part i felt it would be matt palmer or scott robertson, but i think jodi grew into the game and showed signs of what he can produce. some very clever forward passes, and overlapping runs. he gets my vote, but nick tsaroulla deserves a shout out too.
  20. not just jodi, they seemed to be trying it on with robbo. he was smashed from behind with a blatant elbow, he was hacked to the ground and got back to eon the ball, only to be pushed off it. later on, he was hit and kicked out at by the winger the gaffer mentioned. i am not being bitter, just feel they got away with so much but we had plenty of chances and that's a promising sign. our away form does need to improve, but games where teams play like crewe will be hard because they can play good football.
  21. feels like we have been robbed, i could not see the penalty but the referee missed a lot of dirty play by crewe. loads of elbows, pushing and kicking out. i do think luker should have won a penalty, but mcdonald equally could have given one away. it felt like a draw, but notts played well enough. dont get disheartened and just go again.
  22. thankful that the reedtz have done this without wanting anything in return, we have good owners and they want the club to be healthy. i think its true that it says more about their commitment and desire to seeing us progress in the leagues.
  23. their goal was a very good delivery into a difficult area to defend, i dont blame roos but i do think it could have intercepted before their player scored. its one of those things tho, notts has looked very good in spells. brilliant goal by tsaroulla to get us level. its just that bit between them scoring and us going level that could have been a bit better at times but it is end to end.

  25. i am back on the training system, so i have been focusing on that a lot lately. i have another week where i have to pass various training courses, safety and best practices is always a piece of cake. i have much more enjoyed the showery days compared to those that the rain constantly comes. tomorrow i am on until 6pm, and i start from 8:30am. its going to be a long day. hope everyone is feeling well and are enjoying what ever activities you are all upto.
