Match Discussion: Game 4 - The Robins (A)
i felt pleased with the win, both teams played well and a draw might have been a fairer score but it showed how notts can turn these types of games into wins. its good to see how defensive we stood strong, as it gave us the platform to go forward. we might have lost this lost season, i hope we can build on it.

Match Report: McGoldrick Magic as Notts County Triumph Over Swindon Town
swindon gave a good account of themselves, the opening goal was very well taken and i dont think there was anything alex bass could do. it stung to see us trial earlyish into the game but notts showed some good character and turned the game on its head. i was not sure about david mcgoldrick starting but again, he showed his worth and both of his goals were such a joy to see go in.

Notts County Secure Dynamic Attacker Jevani Brown for Season-Long Loan
i think he should do well with the players around him, our style naturally benefits anyone with a strong sense of attacking. we might not see him score many goals but if he can assist other players in doing so, then it will help us as we continue to push for a top end finish.

Match Preview: Can Notts County Continue Their Strong Start Against Swindon Town?
notts has a good chance to start the gathering the points needed to be at the right end of the table, swindon will soon climb it themselves. i hope that notts leaves with the win, so far being undefeated is a good thing to build on. it would be nice to make it 2 wins in 2.

Lewis Macari 'I'm Loving It Here at Notts County'
hes done remarkable well since joining us, i think he has also shown signs of improvement. before he signed permanently i was not that bothered about him, good loan player but did not quite make his presence known. yet since playing more, i am pleased by how hes grown and this season its hard to see him not being named in the squad.

George Abbott Excited for New Chapter at Notts County: "It's a Good Opportunity" Says Tottenham Hotspur's Young Midfielder
i like that he sounds defensive focused, because he could be someone that can continue our approach to winning the ball back quickly. i have been impressed with this so fart, but i think if george abbott is comfortable getting stuck in, he could be a joy to watch going forward. he comes across very well.

Tottenham Hotspur’s U21 Captain George Abbott Joins Notts County on Loan
he does look like a very exciting loan signing, a player who could go on to have a top career. i think the club might be hyping him as to be expected but i think he will focus on allowing his football and ability to do the talking. i hope he enjoys his time at notts and meadow lane.

Match Discussion: Game 4 - The Robins (A)
i do wonder how the new lad will fit in? i dont want to sound negative towards him but i think it would be wrong if he just made it straight into the first team. i want the players to keep working for the privilege so that we can get the very best out of them. hopefully, he does come on from off the bench but i dont think the team needs any changes unless we have injury concerns.

Stuart Maynard discusses transfers, squad depth, and Notts County's upcoming clash with Swindon Town in League Two
i am glad that notts has rejected the bids, but it could lead to higher offers if clubs are desperate enough to add quality to their team. im not concerned all that much, pleased the focus is solely on playing swindon town.

The Nest/Fan Zone: Update.
the nest really is a great way to bring in additional revenue, its very good. @Fan of Big Tone i tried at the grimsby game but ended up leaving once i looked around. its not my thing either, but i can see that its a very good idea.

Alassana Jatta: In The Goals.
the facts do say a lot about jatta, he can be a threat on goal and i can see him being a big part of our squad. he is a good striker that has the ability to score goals in many ways. not picking faults, but it would be nice to see a few more goals from his heading ability, such a tall player would be prime for those types of chances.

Opposition View: Swindon Town Fan Lee Witts' Honest Analysis Ahead of Notts County Match
i think lee has given us a good insight into swindon, its difficult sometimes to start well but i think they will improve. i do feel very confident from a notts perspective but we are still working on our away form ourselves. so, swindon might be a bit harder for the fact they are at home and wanting to avoid dropping further points.

Sven-Göran Eriksson: A Legacy Remembered at Notts County
in some sense what he did for notts was heroic because he forfeit every promised to him upon leaving, his wages and even tried to find the club a new owner. its something we can feel in debt to sven for. reading comments from fans who had the pleasure of meeting him, he seems very down to earth despite his fame. very saddening news of his passing.
-
Notts Alumni: Tom Keetley
such a great read this, @Chris. i know a lot came out during our national league season, but tom keetley needs to be in the notts hall of fame which seems a second thoughts these days. he truly impacted notts and I'm pleased that he has a headstone on his final resting place. without that, it would be very upsetting. his memory lives on with us.

The Magpie’s Eye: Notts County - A Season of Promise and Progress
in the clip of the fans, that is @Chris at the bottom right side. i like reading your thoughts on what fans and is posted on social media, i agree with what you say. its good to see more fans warming to stuart maynard. at times it has seemed personal, ever since the bbc did the piece about him giving up his bt technician job. some of those comments seemed unfair and it did take me away last season from wanting to discuss notts. i think the signs are there, we just need to have faith.

Stuart Maynard Hails 'Incredible' Notts County Performance After Grimsby Town Triumph
i am pleased for stuart maynard because you can see the improvements made so far this season and with our strongest 11, we look so much better on the ball and in defending. i know there were groans and concerns after Shrewsbury but even that had positives to take away from the game. doing well against a league one team is positive especially fielding what would be considered not our strongest squad going 2-0 up. the game against grimsby, the squad worked so hard for each other, it was very pleasing.

Where are they now : Christian Oxlade Chamberlain
i did not rate him, i thought tobi adebayo rowing was going to be exactly the same but i thought he improved after his first season. both could not defend, struggled with heading the ball and passing. strange how we looked for players with height that had limited ability on the ball.

Curtis Edwards Reflects on Impressive Notts County Victory and His Role Moving Forward
it was a very good performance by curtis edwards, he seemed to be all over the place when we needed him and for all the running he did. you would not believe he was 30, its great to have someone with his passing ability and work rate in the team. he fits in so well and just offers something different. very clever on the ball!

Match Discussion: Game 3 - The Mariners (H)
i thought notts made the game look very routine, from the moment the game kicked off you could see how the training had impacted how we played. such good quick football at times, where we would be patient when needed. i know we can only beat what is put in front of us but how poor were grimsby defensively? @Chris was spot on about their keeper. grimsby did look good going forward but not enough to make it look like there was anything more than just chances. i am not disappointed we conceded, not when we play like that and i did not see much wrong with our goals. i might be wrong, but grimsby fans calling the referee, i dont think he made any difference to the game. i dont know why our fans are praising them for the noise they made, they was silent for most of the game. it was a good amount for a thursday night and i respect that, but they could have been more involved. just like the grimsby town defence i suppose. as for the notts players, i dont want to single out any individuals because it was a great team performance.

Match Report: Dan Crowley Double Seals Notts County's 4-1 Triumph Against Grimsby Town
most enjoyable 90 minutes watching notts i have seen, i dont remember the last time we played with such control and authority over a team. grimsby looked okay when attacking, defensively a shambles and their keeper looked awful. so pleased that we earned our first 3 points of the season, i hope more good performances are to come. its good to see stuart maynard enjoying a solid win too.
-
Match Preview: Notts County Seek First Win Against Grimsby Town
i am looking forward to the game, it will be a nice early game under the flood lights and a chance to see the pitch under them. i do think we need the points but i am not worried provided we dont lose. i mean it would not be the worst thing but right now we could do with a boost. a win would do that, it would give the squad confidence and more importantly encourage stuart maynard.

David McGoldrick: Ready and Waiting to Shine at Notts County
i do think david mcgoldrick role is more as a rotational player and helping to see out or making an impact off the bench. i think at his stage in his career, he is doing well and has started much better than he ended last years campaign. we need him at his best and i think overplaying him is not the solution, so i am happy to see that he will wait to influence the games. his experience is useful but it should guarantee him a start even if he earns the most.

Opposition View: Grimsby Town Fans Share Early Season Insights - Standout Players and Team Morale
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.
