The entire situation seems to have been blown out of proportion, and I don’t believe an apology is warranted. I’ve seen the tweet, and if Tom wants to project maturity, he should refrain from endorsing frivolous comments. It would reflect better on him if he chose to rise above it, but considering some of the tweets he’s been receiving, it’s all proving to be quite beneficial for his public image. That’s why I find it hard to believe that he’s genuinely bothered by what Connell Rawlinson wrote. It’s all rather petty; one would expect better from Rawlinson, but he’s entirely within his rights to tweet whatever he pleases, as long as it’s not offensive. Taking offence to being told to ‘stay in your lane’ seems rather thin-skinned and weak-minded for someone who dishes out analyses and opinions that could potentially provoke others.

I’m keeping a close eye on them; if they manage to stay afloat, it will be an achievement even more remarkable than their promotion. They’re in the midst of a real struggle, facing extremely challenging circumstances. If I were a Luton Town supporter, my hope would be for investment to develop the club. If they were to be relegated, bouncing back would be a formidable task in its own right. I extend my best wishes to them.

Hello, @Niederbayern Pie. The Pride of Nottingham has plenty of discussion and content to keep you entertained. Join in and share your thoughts. Welcome!

Hello, @Middlesex Magpie. Welcome to the Pride of Nottingham, I hope to see you join with us.

Hello, welcome to the Pride of Nottingham. It's great to have you here, @Morten Johansen.

It's great to have you here, @Ryan Raynor.Welcome to the Pride of Nottingham.

Impartially, I find myself aligning more with @liampie’s views as they resonate more accurately with my own opinion.

It’s a delight to witness each of our four players finding the back of the net. It’s gratifying to see Dan Crowley reaping the rewards of his stellar performances. Macaulay Langstaff’s goal will undoubtedly serve as a significant morale booster for him. Luke Williams is correct; he has goals in him, and we must accept that he won’t be scoring as prolifically, but reaching double digits is entirely achievable. As for John Bostock and David McGoldrick, their class is undeniable, and it’s pleasing to see both of them on the score sheet. The pass from Jodi Jones to McGoldrick was spot on!

As supporters, we naturally hope for a victory, but it would be unwise to dismiss Forest Green outright. I’m not intimately familiar with their team, so I can’t assess their potential threat, but they should be well-prepared to face us. The anticipation for the game is palpable.

My knowledge of Forest Green Rovers is somewhat limited due to our time in the National League and their tenure in League Two. However, it would be a mistake to assume that the game will be a walkover and that Notts will secure a win before a ball has even been kicked. The outcome depends on numerous factors - if we perform well, a favourable result should follow. My hope is for competent officials who can effectively manage the game and curb unnecessary yellow cards. A stern warning early on usually suffices. Our strategy should be to utilise Macaulay Langstaff effectively and attempt shots from outside the area. If they adopt a defensive strategy or aim for a draw, we need to apply relentless pressure.

As Neil Warnock embarks on his retirement, we wish him all the best. It would be beneficial for a platform like Sky Sports to secure him as a pundit, preventing him from accepting another managerial position. This arrangement would allow him to continue enjoying football while having more leisure time. His rants, undoubtedly more entertaining than a grumpy Roy Keane, would be a welcome addition.

In the realm of international football, skilled players often enjoy more time with the ball. This is particularly true for Jodi Jones, whose encounters with superior players not only challenge him but also contribute to his growth as a footballer. He has seamlessly reintegrated into League Two, demonstrating impressive skills on the field. Undoubtedly, he is a crucial asset to our team. His performances are a delight to watch, and it is our hope that he continues to find joy in playing for Notts.

Jesse Debrah is a talented player, but life goes on. Port Vale have acquired a very capable defender who should be a valuable asset in League One. It’s important to remember that some players, particularly younger ones, choose League One as it’s just one step away from the Championship. Having spent time in the National League, he’ll be keen to progress, and there’s always a risk associated with League Two. If he can make a good impression in L1, it could be a significant boost for his career. I don’t blame him for making the move.

Being an Exeter fan must be tough at the moment, given their 9-0 defeat. It’s a harsh reality check and a disappointment for their supporters.

The goal was the result of an excellent passing move. The ball was played into space, and as they advanced up the pitch, more space opened up, leading to the goal. While the goal itself may not have been spectacular, the quality of the passes leading up to it elevates it.

The problem is, they’re not a team that can readily replace their talent. They’re likely to face difficulties, and appointing a new manager won’t instantly rectify their creative problems. It’s a tricky situation because unity is key at this point. After all, any incoming manager will be limited in what they can do until the transfer window opens.

His decision to support Notts was unconventional but commendable. It’s rare to see someone choose a team outside of the top five these days. Kudos to Adam for his wise selection. Despite the highs and lows, it has only served to strengthen our community. As @liampie pointed out, it’s lovely that he’s involving his daughter. She didn’t have the luxury of choice like Adam did when it came to picking a team. Fortunately, Notts is on the rise. Thanks for sharing this wonderful story, @Chris, and thank you, Adam.

I think it proved to be a poor appointment from the start. Oldham haven't adapted to life in the National league and I can't see them returning to the EFL any time soon. The club needs a lot of work to do. It's a shame to see a club like them that once played in the Premier League become so poor.

Conor Keeley could be a good signing, if he's willing to talk to Notts once his contract is up or if other fans are right, that he will be heading to Walsall. Whatever the outcome, I don't think Notts needs to worry or become obsessed with trying. There will be plenty of targets, with a handful potentially playing in the Irish league.

Garlic Beer? Whose madness was that? It doesn't sound appealing to me. ???? I haven't felt this bad since overhearing someone talk about how homebrewing with popcorn made a difference to the overall taste of their beer.

Ryan Harley, our esteemed assistant, has had the privilege of playing for FGR on loan.

Notts are demonstrating the correct attitude and concentration in their preparation. Observing the players complete running laps before and after pre-season matches is a strategy that will enhance their stamina and overall performance levels. The benefits of this approach are beginning to show, but I believe the key to any success is the enjoyment of the game. There’s nothing quite like the thrill of winning matches and earning Man of the Match accolades. Dan Crowley is thoroughly enjoying this experience. He’s an exceptional player and his signing this season has been a significant acquisition for us.

I am absolutely thrilled with the progress and outcomes we’ve achieved so far. Our hard work and determination, particularly after the initial match, have propelled Nottingham to its current position. The unwavering support from our fans has undoubtedly played a significant role in our success. The training regimen implemented by Luke Williams and his team has been nothing short of miraculous. Their efforts have transformed the way Nottingham plays football. It’s exhilarating to witness such a dynamic shift in our performance, especially considering that not too long ago, our matches were deemed monotonous. As many have noted, there is still a considerable journey ahead of us. However, the fact that we are consistently scoring well-executed goals and demonstrating improved defensive strategies is a promising sign. Our midfield has been exceptional, providing a solid foundation for our team’s success. While we should celebrate our achievements thus far, it’s crucial that we maintain our focus and continue to strive for improvement. While the path ahead may present challenges, there are certainly encouraging indications.

Indeed, I’ve heard as well. Mr Magpie features on some of the current Notts merchandise, offering a delightful retro throwback to the beautiful game.
