So what plans have you got for this weekend, or what have you been up to?

We are still on the Isle of Wight the weather was pretty awful for part of the week but it’s considerably better these last two days, today we’ve been using our old farts bus passes to go to Cowes on the excellent bus service.  

Tomorrow I’ll be keeping an eye on the match and hoping Notts win, we’ll probably go on the bus again to our favourite pub in Ventnor for lunch, it’s called The Spy Glass and it’s right on the seafront.

What are your plans?

 

 

Here we are again - post your predictions by 3pm on Saturday, and remember your joker! As I've taken the scandalous liberty of going on holiday while this round is on, I'll be posting the scores at the end of this round a bit later (probably together with round 9). But good things come to those who wait!

 

Bristol City v West Bromwich Albion

Huddersfield Town v Rotherham United

Derby County v Portsmouth

Shrewsbury Town v Bristol Rovers

Crawley Town v Tranmere Rovers

Newport County v Barrow

Hartlepool United v Woking

Wealdstone v Altrincham

in the meantime...

Can we all welcome our new member @Banquo to PoN!

Morning all, is anyone doing anything exciting this weekend? I guess some will be travelling to Salford tonight.

We spent the night in a hotel in Newbury and this morning we are travelling to Southampton to catch the Isle of Wight ferry where we are staying for a 10 day holiday.

Let us know what you are up to or have been up to this weekend (assuming it’s legal of course). :joker:

My old mate @super_ram will be interested in this.

I’m on holiday here in Isle of Wight where there is a Garlic farm that sells everything garlic related including Garlic Beer, being a beet lover I just had to try it and asked the girl selling it about it, apparently it’s made with black garlic which is very mild. I must admit the garlic is very subtle and it’s a pleasant drink.

At least I won’t be troubled by vampires. :joker:

Recently, whilst watching YouTube a lot of old comedy shows and comedians have been appearing in my video list. One of which is Tommy Cooper. I don't watch a lot of comedians these days; I just don't find them as funny.

There are a lot of good comedians out there, but they are completely different.

Peter Kay is one of the few who reminds me of the classic style, as these days it seems more about quick wit, sarcasm, irony, deepen, black and dark humour, controversial one-liners etc.

I used to enjoy watching Jack Dee and I think Russell Howard is one of the best currently. I just miss the family style entertainer, I suppose. The UK used to have many who could be silly, bring laughter but in a way that was wholesome.

This Saturday Notts play host to Forest Green Rovers, how many links can we find between the two clubs?

The first one that springs to mind is Ian Burchnall who jumped ship from Notts to FGR when we failed to win promotion in the National League play offs.

How many more links can we find?

Joel Taylor and Elliott Whitehouse for Chester FC on the BBC red button now 

We’re eight games into the season and our team is sitting in a commendable 2nd place, just behind Gillingham. It’s been a promising start, and with each game, it’s clear to see how the squad is growing and gelling together. However, we must keep in mind that Swindon Town still has a game in hand. If they win, we could potentially move down to third place. But let’s not forget - it’s still early days.

The season is long and there are plenty of games left to play. Despite this, I can’t help but feel optimistic about our chances this season. The team seems stronger and more cohesive with every match. It’s exciting to think about what the rest of the season might hold for us.

How do you feel about our start to the season? Are you as hopeful as I am about our prospects?

This Scottish view maybe be of cause for concern for @Dry Nelson Ray
