if david mcgoldrick feels he can still perform to the level we have seen this season, and notts adds more quality around him and take into consideration there is a need for someone like him to fill in when he cant play, then i am all for giving him a new one year deal. last season i would not have said this, but he has earned it with how much he has self driven notts to wins.

i am starting to think every bad spell notts has it sucks the hope of finishing in the automatics, and then we go on a good run and it renews that hope. i dont think we are consistent enough, i believe notts has the depth and quality but it comes down to wanting to win. pushing for goals and defending well, not losing control of matches and generally struggling to convert chances that are created. right now i think playoffs is more likely, but i am worried that if we persist with this form we may just end up slipping out of them too.

i am a little annoyed by it, why do we keep recalling him and never giving junior morias a proper chance. i almost expect him to be sent out on loan in a few days time, just as we start to think he has a chance. imagine being morias with how notts have prevented him from playing, and basically signed a player to not actually play much at all. i really do hope he gets a chance. its very odd behaviour by notts.

well done george abbott, pleased to see he earned the votes from us fans.

i think he looks a good prospect and can improve further, but its down to notts to make sure we get the most out of him. i would give him a longer deal, we cant expect all young players to be consistent but he does work hard. we need to push that and get the best charlie whitaker can be.

to be fair, we looked in a good place when the january transfer window wrapped up. i think its always a setback when you lose staff and coaches who work so closely with the setup and whilst i think the saunders can easily be replaced i dont think the club should have rushed to appoint joao alves but its not his fault. he will be the easy target for why stuart maynard might not have the support or experience by his hand and in a way, i think the club has made a decision which is more negative to a manager learning efl football in only what would be his second season (which is not even a full second term). clubs dont like to admit when they are wrong, but they should look at giving maynard the best possible assistant. i am sure alves will make the grade one day, but we need someone who can advise maynard when he needs it like in times like this. there was rumours yesterday that neil warnock might be approached in some form of support role, but i think thats people who put 2+2 together and come up with 5. i think we need to stick together and help secure a few back to back wins, as that would be the biggest boost to morale.

david mcgoldrick, all of our smart play came through his creativity and drive to get notts into scoring oppatunities. he did some great passes, and made it hard for chesterfield.

notts should have made the second half count and there was moments i felt we could but we just lacked that cutting edge on goal. bringing conor grant on was a good decision, and i can see why he does not always start because he can fade in and out. he made a good impact and i dont think the side is struggling due to injuries, more because they are not putting attacking practices into the play. i thought barrow did well to sit back, but play when the opportunity came. you can see that they are a good league team but we had every chance to turn the game around and we just failed. i left feeling frustrated but with the game in hand, plus the results going in our favour. i think winning a few games back to back would help, but we need to start taking the chances we get because the results in other games wont always go our way. just a bit more urgency at times and better movement seems enough to give us a bit more opportunity to create something more clean cut.

i like the changes to limit guests and i hope it encourages people to be more involved, it just takes people to read, comment and get to know members or if they choose to remain private they can but the site is a great community. we are much better off without politics.

if we had two jacob bedeaus i think we would be unstoppable and for me, he was the man of the match. as nice as it was to see lewis macari back, he is not quite back to his best,

to be honest, i think matt palmer tends to be overlooked simply because of how good he is. how quiet he can be is also something which hinders him from being noticed because fans will notice those who are taking bolder actions. its why alex bass can have a superb game, but its only those matches where he stops a team from winning or drawing that gets him voted as the man of the match. i think we can take some players for granted and palmer is one of them. we were lost last season without him, hes such an important part and i dont think being named as the man of the match is everything. you want players to do their role and do it well, which palmer does but its an interesting question.

Favourite Player Right Now: jodi jones Most Consistent Performer So Far: matt palmer Rising Star in the Squad [Not Including Loanees]: charlie whitaker Most Improved Player Recently: rod mcdonald Best Player in Each Position: alex bass, jacob bedeau, jodi jones, matt palmer, jatta Who is your all-time favourite Notts County player and why? probably lee hughes or neal bishop, simply due to the memories of their time here. If you could have dinner with any current Notts County player, who would it be and why? i would be to anxious, but if i had to choose i would say kellan gordon because he seems to express a lot of understanding towards autism, disabilities etc. i would have said adam chicksen as he is very positive minded. What's your favourite Notts County chant or song? i had a wheelbarrow If you could relive any moment in Notts County history, what would it be and why? the chesterfield playoff final, it was a great experience and even though we were lucky to have won on penalties the game had everything a big match like a promotion game needed. very exciting and special. What's the furthest you've travelled to watch a Notts County game? carlisle? its a tricky question of the top of my head.

maybe he found something that worked well enough to get crawley town promotion once, but does not have the ability to do it the same? he might not be a bad coach, but he might not be good enough to sort mk dons into a team that wins games. they have good players, so it could be that he works best with less talented or ones who are more able to be encouraged his way? i dont think hes the best coach, but by far the worst. just an average league two manager imo.

routine day at work so far, everything is very straight forward and i should be on time for leaving to go home. i dont have any other plans, not at the moment but i have been enjoying the lighter weather.

they are one of the teams who continue to compete back and fourth with being in the premier league, i wonder how much their financial issues are as a result to this.

first half was a very good 45 minutes, but even though i think notts could have put the game to bed then. i do think its sometimes how games go and their pitch is one of the worst i have seen this season. i thought it was good how it did not make us sluggish, but i could see them growing in strength and the disappointing thing is allowing them to claw themselves back into the game and then to losing in a game we should never have been in that situation. fleetwood played some good football, but i think we were a lot more lively and looked the better team. we just struggled to adapt to how fleetwood changed things in the second half, and some of our own players did not ask enough questions.

i love going to visit my family up in scotland and on the isle of man, there is a lot of beautiful scenery. i do want to take time to look around england, but i have always found scotland to be very peaceful. there is some great pictures in the article.

whenever crypto is mentioned in any business sense, i automatically assume its going to go bad. all these scams, its not exactly something that shouts reputable.

are they still in trouble with their owners? italian owned? not investing into the club? i know they seemed to do a fair bit of business at the start of this season but i have lost track of where they are in terms of financial issues.

even if george abbott does not make it with spurs, i think he will attract interest and still end up as a very good premier league player even if he has to play in the championship for some time. hes a class player, and i hope his time here helps him to establish himself in the tottenham team.

i have not watched it, i dont watch a lot of tv. usually its just the dramas and documentaries that interest me. i know the show, but i dont like the host.

budget and the squad is two things, and is not always equal to the success but i do think that a lot of fans do have unhealthy or unrealistic expectations. some of it seems right considering the squad we have, other bits makes me unhappy with how some make themselves seem like notts have earned promotion without playing a single game. i think notts should stick with stuart maynard, provided we are moving in the right direction. he can learn a lot and the only thing which would make me reconsider is if we were to plummet and show no signs of being a good team. i do think the football is much better under maynard, he has struggled with injuries and tactical decisions of his own but at this level hes perfectly fine. sacking maynard without proper reason could undo what he and previous managers have done. if we dont get promoted, fine. if we end up in the playoffs it can be a lottery and i think we have seen under the reedtz that the club continues to move forward.

i think it could be a good thing but it depends how serious notts are about it and if they can get the right people to take the seats. i think there are more reasons why this can fail, than there are to succeed. if the club find the right person to lead the meetings and it actually focuses on notts, us fans and does not become about what those groups involved can get or the benefits of being close to the club it could be good for notts. i am just of the mindset that most will want something and not all give up their time just to be useful. some will, most probably not.

yes, these changes are more practical suggestions instead of what usually get put into place. how long did kicking the ball away last before refs stopped issuing yellow cards? i think refs made that more frustrating than it needed to be but in principle players should be carded if they use it to time waste. i am not sure how 8 seconds is all that better to prevent keepers, i mean officials are meant to add time on.

george abbott would be my man of the match, so he gets my vote.
