Notts home attendances now exceeding Barcelona
it sounds worse for barcelona when you think the likes of gillingham can get more than 6k. 🤣 even if the ground barca are playing in, at least its going to factor in the away fans true attendance.

Tales From The Trenches.
it gives me shudders when i think of the conditions of war built trenches but to combined that with people going out and seeking dead bodies to eat. it just takes it to that extra level or eeriness.

Luke Williams - How do you manage
we have moved forward, i guess the club has different ideas and visions now at least at this stage. its like how we sign players, some might come back but most probably wont. if luke williams can gain more experience, i think that would make him stand out.

Fans Forum
i think it would be a good time for the club to work on its relations with the supporters, and lift morale going into what will be a crucial stage of the season. i wont be attending, i tend to find the forums to be overwhelming with sound and the best bits are usually the talking segments and answers to fan submitted questions which are always filtered through. it is good this is happening, and i hope the notts fans here that go enjoy it.

Fact of the day The Faroes
perhaps they are having a surge in talent, rather than focusing on the small pool of players which is interesting. its great to see a nation like faroa island doing well against nations such as france and switzerland who have more established youngsters.

Match Discussion: League Two - Crawley Town (A)
jayden luker looks like a brilliant addition to the squad, because it was him who did all the work to make tyrese hall shine. hall does not always look like he knows what to do with the ball, and at times just looks like hes is nothing all that special but luker really brought him into the game and then hall looked more confident. hall slipped back into the similar play shortly after his goal, but his second really did make a difference. i thought kelle roos did well, even that save he made after the offside decision was a commanding effort to make, that i think he might not have done so well in previous months. he looked a lot better, very calm and collected. scott robertson and matt palmer make a great duo, its a shame we cant see similar with ollie norburn but he gives us options but right now the paring of robbo and skip makes the most logical sense. jatta seems to have lost a bit of confidence on goal, he had some good efforts his finishing lacked but it was great to see him score.

The Tenth Game
i would like to see more games like yesterdays win over crawley town. notts does not have to score 4 goals week in and week out, but the play and movement was much better. we looked like a team which was enjoying their football, and even if the second half may not have seen 3 of them. i would have left happy winning 1-0, due to the level everyone put in. we sometimes dont see enough from the team together, and if more have off days, it puts pressure on others to shine. gillingham away saw us do this with trying to get jodi jones to unlock things, or for him to have shots away but if everyone is working to a similar level then i think things would be much easier. its weird how we can go from looking like we have never played together, to looking like serious promotion contenders. i think there are various reasons for this such as fitness, signings, change of head coach, etc. but i hope this is a sign that martin paterson is able to push the team forward and make us more consistent as a promotion contender. i was thinking the same thing, as yesterday did show that notts can attack a lot more fluidly than we have seen. crawley was not the best in picking up the ball, or moving it around but even with this said, notts played very well.

Who is your Man of the Match v Crawley?
it was nice to see lewis macari back in the team, he made a few mistakes but i thought he offered a lot when attacking. defensively it has always been a weakness for him, but i thought rod mcdonald did well alongside him and it was good to see mcdonald pumping the ball forward. i do also agree that jacob bedeau played much better, though quieter in attack, he did the basics and supported well. midfield was a real joy to watch, with matt palmer and scott robertson controlling everything. i thought conor grant had a quiet game, but did some neat stuff to win back the player and to get notts moving. robertson fully deserves the man of the match imo.

Boldmere St Michaels v Notts County Women
the graphics the women's media team puts out are much nicer this season. a narrow defeat is nothing to worry about, so i hope the team dont dwell on the result.

Match Discussion: League Two - Crawley Town (A)
i want to see more of rod mcdonald playing those long balls to break the back line, i felt disappointed he did not play one of them against gillingham as it could have pushed them further back. i dont think martin paterson sees how dangerous it can open up play at times when passing just is not working. gillingham liked throwing angle balls into our penalty box. notts needs to be a lot more focused against crawley because they will be a bit scrappy as per usual.

Which Early Retiree Would You Have Loved to See at Notts?
darren huckerby was one of my early football heroes, born in nottingham and had a stint with forest but one hell of a striker that could have stayed playing in england instead of going off to the us. he was not that injury prone to my knowledge, but did retire early. he would have been fantastic at notts. imagine him signing the munto season and teaming up with lee hughest, luke rodgers, karl hawley etc

Michael Duff appointed at Wycombe, will he ask for Martin Paterson as his #2?
head coach or assistant? he has a golden egg with notts if he can get the team performing better and winning games. whereas being the assistant does not really offer much or if that the same amount of security. wycombe are a good team, but michael duff might find it hard to keep his job.

Mafia infiltration in Italian football
south america is full of clubs owned by drug lords. i am not surprised to see the mafia branching into football in italy. i would not want to support a team where the owners are that dodgy.

Please give a warm welcome to Jimbo78
hello, @Jimbo78. are you also a notts fan? i can speak to some people i know that might be able to give better advice, i am sure there are derby based fans here. is your dad looking to carpool? i really hope we can find a means for him to still attend if this is the case.
