  1. you have to be stupid not to slow down when running that fast, sliding in like that. dion did rash challenges whilst he was here, fouls that looked silly afterwards. i dont believe he did mean to break or injure the gateshead player but he did make a silly decision to fly in. i think if he meant to do it or not is irrelevant, the fact he ran at such pace where you have little control and a lot of momentum is very reckless behaviour.
  2. i am pleased to see two fans answering, it gives a bit of contrast between what grimsby fans are thinking. its a very good opposition view for that reason. i think both fans come across well, but i think we will keep jodi jones.
  3. what was jatta doing? the first goal was very well worked, i dont really make faults for that kind of goal. yet i think its jatta who could have got a header. for me if a player is front of the ball, then there is no reason not to react to defending a situation. cedwyn scott did get beat, but thats what happens and wrestling with a player in a penalty box when you have been out moved like that would be silly. for me, i think both could have done better, but its harsh to single out just scott when jatta with his size could have easily made it his ball. fleetwood were very good, a good team that worked well with each other and focused on getting chances. they were happy to sit back, which is a shame notts did not make the most of the first half. i hope we play with a more cutting edge against grimsby.
  4. i am a bit nervous, because we can hold the ball and move it well but if teams work harder to score goals it looks like it would be us coming back into games. i would hope we could be a bit more creative, maybe go through the middle and times. if space presents itself for a shot from distance, consider having a go? so far, we have had players wait to shoot, where doing so from distance is only going to be blocked or deflected. notts needs to be a bit braver and creative especially in the first half.
  5. hes had a good career, its a shame to see him retire but he knows his body. i thought he always put effort in when we had him, i actually thought he did well in his position.
  6. good luck to them, i will be keeping tabs on the score here.
  7. dion kelly evans was always pretty wreckless with his challenges even here, its partly why fans seemed to go on about him. he was decent, and worked hard for us but nothing all that special. i think the challenge is sickening, i dont see why he decided to go in for it. i dont think he did it on purpose, but his speed was dangerous and the decision to try to tackle was poor.
  8. except crowley was involved with winning the ball back, moving it around and working in a way that gave notts a edge. jodi was poor defending and only got into the game more when we needed goals. dont get me wrong, hes a great player and its fun to watch him but at times his decisions lost the ball. i would say without jones, we would have been unlikely to get back into it. for me it was easily noticeable that dan crowley had the better performance.
  9. it was straight at the keeper, it looked a weak shot too. not sure how its a great save. its good keeping, making himself low and big, but if vardy had tried to hit a corner and that forced a save then it would have deserved the praise its getting. looks pretty standard to me, good move by leicester city but most good keepers should have reacted the same way.
  10. supply and demand, fair play to those who can make good money from doing it. i dont see any arm in it, the way the internet has opened up, i think its a good thing that people can make a living selling items without having to have storage and what not. provided taxes are paid, its a good way to make an income.
  11. welcome to the pon site @Beechams.
  12. good start to the season, is hollie fowler no longer the captain? it was to see one of our own as an important part of the squad. no idea if shes injured or something else, but was surprised she was not starting.
  13. i have had two days of bad migraines, it comes and goes but its not effected me with working thankfully. not felt all that great. today has been different, i have felt okay. i think its the weather being all over the place.
  14. i thought ryan broom was fleetwoods best player, he reminded me of ben pringle. always involved and doing the bits which gets a team going. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ryan_Broom
  15. i thought he came back like he had not been away, i like that he was coming wide at times and putting in crosses. there was bits to his game which i do not remember seeing before, such as him taking on players with the ball. usually he passes or turns to put his back as a way to protect the ball until he releases it. i thought his return gave us a big boost with trying to make something of the game.
  16. jacob bedeau and matty platt look like fantastic signings, i think bedeau looks very calm and influential. its good to see how he has done, i left tranmere very impressed with him. i thought he was the better defender for us, getting involved and cutting out chances, but also being a big part going forward.
  17. some very good goals in that clip, all are well taken but some a different level.
  18. i guess it depends, i dont think we are looking for a regular starter and a new signing that is loan might be prepared to be more of a squad player. its their chance to get some experience if it does not work out, we dont lose anything. i do think things will open up come january, so until then i am happy to see the club consider loans.
  19. i am not familiar with any of this but it sounds like the town has suffered. losing a club can be big as it impacts the community. i hope they reformed or another team took over.
  20. welcome to pon, @Gaz whitworth. i am glad to say hello.
  21. welcome to pon, @Countylad. i am glad to say hello.
  22. welcome to pon, @Nay. i am glad to say hello.
  23. it is remarkable and shows how clubs fortunes can change when everyone makes the same effort, fans and the club and making the club somewhere people want to be. yes winning helps, but if you take away the support it would be soulless even if notts won a match.
  24. its going to be a tough game, but it will be pleasing to be back at meadow lane. i hope we can give a positive start as our fans could make the game sound very lively with support. i will be chanting and joining in, so i hope the players enjoy the occasion and manage to get a good result.
  25. i like how hes focused on the teams side of things and is not getting carried away with having scored, he looks a very bright and talented midfielder who could get us goals. being in the right place at the right time is only part of it but it sounds like he did very well in his full debut. i hope he has that spark about him against fleetwood tomorrow.
