  1. credit to their owner for keeping the fans close to the stadium but surely it would be better spent on the squad? i hate seeing clubs detached from their home. its just not right and being forced to pay a silly fee seems to be a way to get back at the club. i assume a former owner kept hold of it?
  2. i know from speaking with other fans from clifton where i am originally from that notts has always had close ties with clifton all whites from one time to time.
  3. i have never used bulwell train station but i have been past it on the tram to hucknall and on trains heading to mansfield. despite the town, the station looks quite nice for a small town.

    defending seems to have always been a notts issue. is it don o riordan calling for calmness? i think its the third goal 44 seconds into the clip.

    i think if fans can make enough games to warrant the payment of the membership fee, then its a great offer. it makes match days more affordable and i know its a bit negative to see the club charge higher prices on the day. this at least is something catered to the fans.
  6. no its never happened to me but i know my mum is a very proactive cleaner and does not like seeing other peoples houses a mess when she visits. not that she would say anything. but she might at times just start to try to tidy things up. its quite funny because she cant help it.
  7. ???????? this is the real reason notts lost, star struck by seeing ajax they both went out for drinks. to be serious, its cool notts had this chance to train somewhere ajax has themselves.
  8. this is normal service for any notts fan trying to purchase tickets from ticketmaster, its really no better than the previous online ticket site. obviously i am joking but if its not for slow loading, errors... the site can throw errors very often.
  9. its a shame but it does show how you need to be more wiser with what you spend. teams want to compete and it does make owners want to spend money, money they might not have for the long term. i do hope for their fans things work out.
  10. i get that he has to prove himself, that last season his appointment could have gone better but i think he deserves time to see how things progress this season. personally, i believe he will do just fine. we should be a lot better defensively and we a very blessed attacking side without macaulay langstaff. i do hope the langstaff transfer does not end up being used as an excuse by some or by maynard if things dont go to plan but i am sure we will have a decent season ahead. progress is the key, so hope we can reach the playoffs or higher.
  11. lee hughes @menzinho!! neal bishop was a great captain and whilst not the best player, he made up for it by being reliable. mike edwards, michael johnson, mark stallard, danny allsop, ian richardson, so many greats.
  12. i wished the youth team had a proper development squad to move up to, i believe this would further help them become ready for first team football. i understand the current decision to afford costs by playing local teams in friendlies but league structures are competitive other wise they are just friendly games with no real purpose. the u18s did not do practicably well last season. https://uk.soccerway.com/national/england/youth-alliance/20232024/northeast---2nd-phase/lower-table-round/g23720/ at least the league system is something they can push to do well in and hopefully come against better youth teams in time.
  13. i am back to two days training and three days an headless chicken trying to organise the warehouse and getting exported good out. i prefer actually working, i like to keep busy but the training will come in handy when positions up the ladder opens up. i dont want to work in the offices, that would bore the lift out of me because i like to be hands on. after work, i just watch tv and browse pon. today i finished a little later than normal, so i drove home and then had a quick walk to a chippy called the big fish.
  14. james sanderson looks a good player, he was the focus of last season. a lot of youngsters from the friendlies stood out and a flurry signed pro deals. we never hear much from these young players, i wished the media team at notts would focus a little more on them. our young players seem an after support. the club gets fans on board with supporting them through their hard work but there is no physical push or desire to make sure that they are integrated properly into the first team.
  15. no way would i be one for dancing, i have two left feet and i dont like being watched but i do think its sad how some nice traditions have slowly died off. it sounds like a nice way to meet a partner, i am not sure you would get a long term relationship from someone clubbing. its all in the moment but a lot of these dance halls and other meeting points have died off or are slowly becoming quiet places.
  16. i dont think the deal was ever in the pipeline until they came forward, i am not sure notts had even rejected a bid. i think that was scaremongers trying to wave the negative storm of clicks to get them some ad revenue and site visits. i think if macca was going to leave, we would not have seen him training with us. the fact he was here for a brief time before leaving leaves me to think it was a very quick move, where millwall managed to attract maccas interest and i can understand the lure of championship football.
  17. you have to be a sick person and not a real football fan to chant sickening stuff like the article mentions, thankfully a lot of fans come together over the passing and its just small pockets of people i would suspect looking to be controversial. they are not football fans but people looking to get a reaction out of opposition fans. this behaviour is not the sign of someone wanting to support their club.
  18. so saddened to read about it, i had seen ian mention his book and his wifes diagnosis when he was on twitter. he seemed very upbeat and wanting to make the best of the situation which is admirable. i really hope the family can enjoy the rest of their time together.
  19. i have only watched notts live myself @Wheelbarrow repair man, but having watched all of last seasons games. i would like to get tickets to see england play at wembley some time. its been good travelling on match days with @CliftonMagpie and @TheSkipper. i at least hope you have managed to watch live football with your sons.
  20. i know i am late to this but i had a really nice weekend, saturday my aunt had all the immediate family over and we had a buffet. it was nice to catch up, especially now i am feeling better. these types of things are always nice when the weather is good. sunday, i did my mums shopping and went out on a bike ride around ilkeston.
  21. it must be very hard for you @ARLukomski, i dont think any decision will change the way fans feel about you. we will support you because that is what fans and friends should do. i dont like to think you are suffering from the stress involved with doing something you are obviously very good at doing. it must be very difficult but my opinion on if you should continue with youtube or not, it does mean anything. since you joined pon, i have always watched your vlogs and i can honestly say its been nice to have something to relate too. all the difficult seasons we had and the promotion back to league two have been documented by you. none of us would want you to force yourself to put them out but its about you knowing yourself. i wish you well and hope you find the right thing to do.

  24. its still a memory and although sad, you could have seen how it bought you and your dad potentially closer. i am sure you still remember the thrill of winning and how excited you were. its a shame you did not manage to go to mexico, i would have been inclined to try to make it happen if i were in your dads shoes but i can imagine that could have been much harder said than done back then. still i think you and your dad would have had a blast if you had managed to go, hope you can find the happier side to it in time.
  25. i think 0-0 could equal no points, where as anything higher could be rewarded with a point because it shows that the teams did not settle for a goalless draw. then again giving no points for draws would mean teams had to attack. i dont think any of these would help the underdog teams that might have a great one off season due to winning and drawing games though.
