    Disappointing to see Notts give such a sloppy goal, some Notts fan will blame Shaun Brisley who looks awkward in defence but what the hell was Fitzsimons doing?
  2. TheSkipper
    Get an early goal Notts, make them have to work for it and just assume control over the game from there. If we fail to beat Colchester and Cambridge the season could be much slower than we had hoped for. I know it's early but promotion teams usually go into them starting off well, so I hope things pick up on Saturday.

    It makes a difference who you go to games with @Chris, enjoy the season mate.

    Why did you join prideofnottingham.co.uk? I joined after seeing a call to action for writers, that is what brought me to the site. I thought PON could help me and I could help the site in return. What is your main highlight of being a member? Winning the Member of the Month, it was a nice surprise for doing something I enjoy. How much have you seen PoN grow during your time? PON has grown a lot, especially over the last few months with people making effort with the site. The community could be much bigger if people got involved, I don't know why PON isn't more of a hub for the club. As a community, what would you say are the three core values to PoN and why? Quality, progression and togetherness

    Have they appointed a new manager permanently though?

    Two scrappy teams which neither side was able to put in a proper performance. I think from the Notts perspective this is my biggest worry the fact we are woeful and lack that finishing required to win games. Stead missed a few good chances yesterday.
  7. TheSkipper
    Odd team Cambridge United, I don't know what to expect. I would like to think that Notts have to get a good result but I think both teams at this stage are unpredictable. We need the points badly...
  8. TheSkipper
    Okay, you are spot on again @Chris
  9. TheSkipper
    I hope so @Chris.
  10. TheSkipper
    Just two more crucial key areas to be strengthened and I feel it will be the difference between promotion and chasing Luton Town for the title. We have to go for it. This is well written @Chris.
  11. TheSkipper
    He should be happy with the point at the end of the day. Why some managers look to make excuses rather than praising the better parts I will never understand. It's not like hes under pressure from the board at all.
  12. TheSkipper
    I would always take a point away from home. After we lost the focus in the game we could have easily lots the match. It was good play to get back into it, but it was not pretty football.
  13. TheSkipper
    I do hope for Ryan Yates sake the switch benefits him. I agree 100% with what you have written here Chris, it makes little to no sense. There must be more behind the decision to recall him otherwise I do feel he would be best having stayed put. There's little chance playing League One this season will prepare him enough for the Championship during the next campaign either.
  14. TheSkipper
    Notts have to go for the win. It sounds like its going to be a good away game and our fan base is up for it. I think the players will lift themselves for the performances, we tend be fine during these types of games. A 1-0 win will do me fine.
  15. TheSkipper
    If they play a weaker squad they are asking for trouble. Most teams have a busy run of fixtures this time of year, Smith should be wary of undermining Notts IMO.
  16. TheSkipper
    It needs to stay in the right place, he could be our best player if he manages it.
  17. TheSkipper
    Just keep the play simple and work hard, chances will present themselves and if we are performing well they will be taken. I don't fear Grimsby Town at all. 2-0 home win for us!
  18. TheSkipper
    I have to be honest I am not really familiar with the FITC part of Notts. It does seem like they do some very good work, though I only know what fans say and now this.
  19. TheSkipper
    I listened to the game on the radio, Notts sounded like they put a very impressive performance on show and equally matched Luton Town. Things might not have gone in favour of them at Kenilworth Road but the result is one of the best this season. Notts have an amazing togetherness, in both team spirit and effort and Kevin Nolan must be delighted with how things are. I feel like I can start believing more that we are able to gain promotion, which we can sort the hoofing out once we are out of League Two. There's no negatives about drawing 1-1 to a side like Luton at all. We have nothing to fear against any side provided we respect the approaching opposition.
  20. TheSkipper
    I thought they played better at times, each time they scored they grow in confidence and caused us issues.
  21. TheSkipper
    Grant does give us that extra quality but he did not win us the game, he scored a tap in. The team won the match simple as that.
  22. TheSkipper
    Jorge Grant won't be going anywhere!
  23. TheSkipper
    Yesterday is the type of game last season we would have lost and I thought Notts did a great job at pulling ahead once they had scored. I did not see the penalty, so I can't call it but the referee did seem keen to award something in their favour. Thought Notts played solid in midfield but we do need to be more organised at the back as I am concerned about these daft penalties.
  24. TheSkipper
    Two half of good performances would be nice. The levels drop and its either a good first half and a poor second, or a poor first and a fantastic second. Those stupid flag runners best not be there, I think its daft for a team like ours.
  25. TheSkipper
    Good win yesterday, second half Notts stole the show and played some very good football. First half we don't need to mention. I am still unsure how exactly we scored but I did think Cheltenham came back well. Even in the second half they didn't look like they was out of it, probably one of the better games at Meadow Lane.
