Curtis Edwards Humbled by Notts County Fans’ Reception in Return from Injury
its great to have curtis edwards back, his injury came when he was really growing in his role in the team but its good to have that energy back. the fact we can slot him in where we need, and he just picks his performance up from that opportunity shows the quality he brings.

Football fan builds his own grandstand in the back garden
ian sounds like a right nutter! great advert for him to start selling those pork pies i think. 😆 i hope with his stand he at least contributes in some way to the club.

Grimsby Notts new date 18Feb25 ( in Charlie Slater's interview, on the board!) amended date now 11March
eagle eyed as always @Piethagoram. good interview, i like what stuart maynard said. he was wise to say that he never felt pressure from the board but you could see that there have been times when it has come from fans. it would be nice to think we can secure promotion and really crack on with maynard next season.

Notts rearranged fixtures.
its going to be a busy spell for notts, i hope the amount of games we play does not come at the cost of what points we can pick up due to the fixture backlog and amount of games needed to be played.

Motherwell boss resigns over fan abuse
would it not be productive for awareness to include what abuse he was getting, am i being blind that both linked articles dont actually provide any references. it is very sad but i just think if you are going to go on public record, both stuart kettlewell and the club could address the issue directly by revealing the actual abuse. otherwise it could be that fans were just unhappy with the results and i am sure some went too far, that is not acceptable but imagine what it was like for jamie fullerton when he was here? i did not like him but there was a large amount of unacceptable abuse, i remember reading a fan saying he would hang him if he did not leave on facebook. 🤬

Petition to stop UK govt funding of Man Utd's stadium
what about other clubs? i know there are local grants to help, i recall reading that with wrexham but just how much as the uk government spent on helping spurs, everton and the likes? manchester united should build it out of their owners money. i think its wrong to spend tax payers money on this type of stuff.

Matt Saunders leaves
i think the decision for the pair to leave is silly on their part, but i do wonder where they will end up next? i dont think its bad thing for us, i personally dont think either had what we needed and i think stuart maynard could get better support from an assistant. are they trying to leverage their time here to become a first team manager and assistant together? i dont know, just seems odd on their part.

Holocaust Memorial Day
@Robbie witold pilecki? also this is a sad but interesting read. Surviving Hitler: A Boy in the Nazi Death Camps ANDREAWARREN.COM William Allen White Award Winner Overview: Jack Mandelbaum was 12 years old when the Nazis invaded his native Poland in 1939. Though Jack was Jewish, his family was not particularly religious... such a sad time in history that did so much damage to the world.

Where are they now : Ian Baraclough
looking at wiki he was their director of football, before that the assistant manager at cheltenham. before that a fairly decent managerial cv, so i dont think he would find issue if he wanted to get back involved as a manager or dof. i forgot to say, his experience could be useful to stuart maynard and with his past history of playing for us.

Burnley striker
@menzinho i would say he fits the mould of our scouting system, with his age being 22 and how well he did at accrington. for a young striker, 5 goals in 17 games is not that bad. imagine what he could score within a more competitive squad, or the way we play.

Connell Rawlinson Named Chester FC Club Captain.
with him having already played there and his experience in the efl, it makes perfect sense for him to become chesters captain. i am delighted for him. i hope hes enjoying his time there and managing to get back into wales more frequently than he did when he was here. it must be nice for him to be closer to his family.

First visit to ML for a long time on Saturday
@BradtheMiller: you can copy and paste your video url into the post area like tone did. its good to see you back at meadow lane and its nice to see your vlog on the match day against us and bromley. if you look before meadow lane becomes busy, straight at the kop you will see @Chris and @super_pie sat within the lower part o of county.

Peterborough Utd v Notts County Women
i hope they do well, i have to admit i have not checked on their position in the league for awhile. i need to catchup with your discussion on it, @Robbie.

Back heels to beat all back heels?
nice goal, good awareness and skill to pull it off.

Daniel Adiefeh to Basford Utd
good luck to him, basford should be a nice introduction to mens football. i hope he does well and settles quickly.

Who is your Man of the Match v Carlisle?
well deserved due to his solid performance, the amount of man of the matches george abbott is picking up shows his class and importance.

"I'm Really Impressed With the Way We Defended" – Stuart Maynard on Notts' Resilience
i dont mind the performance, because carlisle made it difficult and it was almost a repeat of what happened in the second half earlier in the season away to them. the main thing is maintaining the form because this is what teams aiming for promotion do, it might not always be the best game but consistency in winning is the important takeaway. as for the officiating it sounds just like an excuse, nothing more.
-
Aidan Stone Has Left Notts.
i think we have treated him a bit unfairly, but its what it is and i wish him well. with his contract now being closer to expiring i assume it makes it cheaper and easier to mutually agree terms. i hope he manages to prove himself, hes not the worst keeper we have had.
-
Do Notts Need to Sign a Goalkeeper?
i think we can rely on sam slocombe until the end of the season, no point signing another keeper imo. i would have rather seen stone kept as our back, because i think he could have shown improvements with our defence now. not that is dislike slocombe but hes at the end of his career now.
-
Where are they now : Kion Etete
interesting to see that he would be out of contract, if we gain promotion and he does well where ever he ends up this season. He could be a worthwhile player to consider signing, he must have something about him to have attracted spurs, cardiff and now potentially bolton.

Rumour Mill : Michael Reindorf
if it is true, then at least we have someone who play similar to david mcgoldrick either as a striker or attacking midfielder.

Weekly Chat 27th Jan -2nd Feb
thanks for all the well wishes. not really, but getting there. some days i could mistaken the uk for iceland or somewhere more gloomy and chilly. i dont think the coldness helps. i wished it would be where i am. its duller than brighton during storm season.

Roman Abramovich could owe UK £1bn over tax dodge that helped bankroll Chelsea FC
why did they not do something about it when they froze his money due to the war against ukraine?

Does Notts have an emergency Striker?
jodi jones can play as a striker, he did for coventry city, and as an attacking central midfielder. with the quality we have out wide, i would be tempted to see if it can help settle jodi back in further. we might be forgetting that will jarvis could play as a striker, so we do have some cover but as i think jodi becomes a different player once he scores. i would consider him as an option. we have nick tsaroulla and kellan gordon who could come in for jones if he was to put up top. i am sure there might be other options if we really need it but i do agree, that its risky relying on someone who might be considered out of position.
