I observed this image that was shared on the Pride of Nottingham Facebook page by a Notts fan. Even though the result cannot be altered, the picture communicates a lot and can be a topic of discussion. Do you believe that if the penalty was taken again? Could have made a difference in the long term? Alternatively, do you think that a tie was still inadequate?

Luke's comment: "The linesman is meant to stand and look along the line. Maybe he forgot what his job was?"

My personal view is that the referee made a good decision by awarding the penalty. However, Wrexham fans believe they should have had two penalties themselves. Firstly, there was the slightest touch by Kyle Cameron on Paul Mullin, and then Sam Slocombe's supposed trip where again Paul Mullin ran into him clearly outside the box but decided to throw himself to the ground in our penalty box.

However, judging by this picture, the referee failed to notice that Ben Foster was off his line. The assistant official should have been watching Foster more closely. In the World Cup and Premier League, penalties with off-the-line keepers are often retaken, with keepers sometimes being issued a yellow card.

The outcome of the Wrexham game cannot be changed, but it is disappointing that we will never know if a draw could have affected the title race or if Notts could have gone on to score a fourth. My final point is that officials need to ensure that keepers stay on the line. FIFA is introducing stricter rules where keepers cannot jump up or distract the penalty taker, etc. It should be something the National League strives to improve on.

The sudden passing of Notts County's chief executive, Jason Turner, at the age of 50, has had a significant impact on the club. Turner had been in the role since March 2016 and had devoted himself to the club. He was described as an outstanding CEO who was respected across football.

What kind of legacy has Jason Turner left behind at Notts County? Turner, who had been the club's chief executive since March 2016, dedicated himself to Notts County. His unexpected death has undoubtedly affected the club greatly.It is worth exploring the impact he had on the club during his tenure. What kind of changes did he bring to the club, and how did he leave his mark? Did he set the club on a path to success, or was his legacy more about the culture and values he instilled in the club? How will Notts County continue to honour his memory and his contributions to the club moving forward?

Below is the memorial post, for comments and rest in peace messages.

I am absolutely thrilled to hear that Luke Williams and Macaulay Langstaff have scooped the Vanarama National League monthly awards for March. 

Williams has been a fantastic manager for Notts County, leading the team to victory time and time again. His tactical brilliance and ability to motivate the players have been key to our success.

Langstaff, on the other hand, has been an absolute powerhouse on the pitch. His incredible skill and ability to score goals have made him a fan favourite. It’s no surprise that he has won awards for his performances; he truly deserves it.

I am so proud of both Williams and Langstaff for their achievements. They have worked hard, and it’s great to see them being recognised for their efforts. I can’t wait to see what the future holds for Notts County with these two at the helm.

What do you think about Williams and Langstaff winning these awards? Do you think they deserved it? How do you think this will impact Notts County’s performance in the upcoming game this weekend against Woking?

i dont spend as much of my free time on social media, with me working from 8am to 5:30pm and sometimes into late shifts i took a step back from twitter and facebook. i have never really liked twitter that much, its a place where people get hot headed easily and usually over silly stuff. like god forbid someone has a different opinion than yours.

i prefer facebook always have, i wished i had more time to keep updated with @super_ram, @magpiejue and some of the other friends from here.

do you spend much time online? does social media have an impact on your life?
