    This sparked an idea in me that once a certain donation goal is reached, the member could be rewarded with a special PON cap. Imagine that! @Fan of Big Tone, this is fantastic, it really suits your blurry face. I hope you enjoy it!

    Even though I have a job, I probably wouldn’t be able to commit to a membership tier. It’s astonishing how quickly money can disappear, but I will remember to make occasional donations because it’s the least I can do and I know Chris will appreciate it.

    I would always wish the best for someone like Alan Sheehan. We may have had difficulties during his time at the club, but none of it was his fault. We are indebted to him for the penalty he scored that kept us in League One against Oldham. I hope he accomplishes his coaching aspirations.

    I want to see Notts attack as we know they can. We’ve had good and bad performances away from home, some average, but no matter how we play, creating goal opportunities can win games, so we need to improve creatively. I believe Dan Crowley will bounce back after being substituted, assuming he’s not injured. @yelobeli - I hope you manage to get the tickets. You often see them being sold in Facebook groups when some fans can’t attend. I’ll be there, @CliftonMagpie or @liampie always sorts our tickets the moment they go on sale. Have a nice day whatever you end up doing.

    Currently, Luke Williams is facing a slump and poor performance that he hasn’t encountered before. Usually, he can get Notts back on track, but for some reason, despite the effort, it’s not working at the moment. I don’t agree with David Jackson’s presser suggestion that Notts are overconfident. I believe it’s not a lack of confidence. It’s likely a combination of nerves and panic causing the defensive problems. As for what went wrong in the second half against Walsall, it’s much simpler because Notts just stopped playing. When that happens, passing becomes tedious.

    Ed Francis is another footballer to mention in this MAGnet discussion, given that he also played for Harrogate.
  8. TheSkipper
    He’s already made a mark with that goal. Our fans simply want to see a young player succeed, and there’s nothing wrong with that. I’m excited about our youth prospects, but we need to ensure they’re ready for the first team.
  9. TheSkipper
    I fully support this idea. It would be wonderful to have at Meadow Lane. We could create a display about our relegation from the Football League and how Christoffer and Alexander Reedtz revitalised us, making us an appealing club to watch.
  10. TheSkipper
    Best of luck to Enzio. He often frustrated me during his time here, and it seemed like he was slowing down, but I’m grateful for his contributions. For instance, his performance in the League Two match against Macclesfield showed his fighting spirit.
  11. TheSkipper
    I respect Kyle Cameron, he’s an excellent captain. Those fans who doubt his abilities are missing the point. He’s clearly competent, and with our support, he should continue to improve. I appreciate his sincere responses.
  12. TheSkipper
    It’s a significant match for Walsall, and we may appear weaker if we don’t find a way to secure a win. We shouldn’t underestimate them, but we should be victorious against teams below us. That’s our main task, so hopefully, we can avoid any unexpected setbacks.
  13. TheSkipper
    Well, I thought I’d seen it all in football! A defender handling the ball while the goalkeeper has it in his grasp is simply astonishing!
  14. TheSkipper
    Based on Walsall’s performance, Notts should have ample opportunities and devise innovative strategies to advance the ball into attack zones. Aaron Nemane and Dan Crowley could prove difficult for them to handle if they can weave their magic. Jodi Jones could also add a spark to our game. While Walsall has some good players, they seem disoriented on the field and usually play with just one forward.
  15. TheSkipper
    We really are a good bunch of Notts fans, well worth your time! So, welcome and enjoy! @TT1970
  16. TheSkipper
    The players are good enough, but ideally we could use someone who is a leader at the back and can improve on what we have. It's fair to give players a chance and to defend them, but we do need someone who is always focused on organising the back and dealing with threats actively. Mistakes will happen, but they do need to be minimised.
  17. TheSkipper
    James Sanderson performed well, but we need to avoid overhyping his debut. The problem I see is people making negative comments if he plays and underperforms or just plays in a way that some fans can’t see he needs time. I do hope to see him in the team, but it will be seasons away before we have a youth player that is going to be with us for a while.
  18. TheSkipper
    Football is nothing without the fans, so I can’t understand why they would try to take something like this away from them. There has been a surge of people hoping to make big paydays by Google ads via YouTube. There was a young lad, who wasn’t very good at vlogging some time ago, he just made fans look bad and would brag about making good money from his terrible videos. To earn a reasonable amount, you really had to be getting good views. Views that are retained. I hope they should be strict with people who are doing it for the right reason, give knowledge and put effort in.

    Jim O’Brien has a knack for being in the right place at the right time. I wonder if he will bag a hat-trick before Christmas? Usually, one goal leads to a flurry of them from him.
  20. TheSkipper
    Those will haunt us for some time, three nightmarish goals gifted to Shrewsbury in a game we should have won.
  21. TheSkipper
    Wesley Burns is a very good Championship player, way too good for being stuck in a team like Ipswich. He would fit into any of the teams that bounce up and down between the Premier League. It was a beautiful strike and well-worked goal.

    Hello, @Darryl Chapman. Welcome to the Pride of Nottingham. We are a very friendly community.
  23. TheSkipper
    I hope we can begin to worry less, as we’ve noticed that we often give up too quickly, something we’ve been conscious of all season. I won’t criticise the players for the poor defence, I’m certain they’re aware and will be upset with themselves. I simply hope we become more resilient from this experience because we’re in an excellent position where a little more effort could yield results.

    The video complements the artwork beautifully, allowing you to appreciate the evolution of the piece as each part is drawn sequentially.
  25. TheSkipper
    We’ve seen a rise in the past and there’s no reason why we can’t see another in the future. I don’t believe the boss needs to make any special efforts to reach out. We’re in a strong position with many excellent members, though it would be lovely to see some return. @Super_Danny_Allsopp continues to post, but seems a bit less involved. I noticed he came back and posted on his wall, but didn’t get a response.
