At the end of every episode of Kammy and Ben's Proper Football Podcast, they ask their guests multiple questions and all they have to do is fill in the blanks. So I thought I'd give it a go on here with some added different questions. 

Favourite Football Kit? 

Best ground you've been to? 

Favourite player growing up? 

Who is your GOAT? 

Favourite Football Video Game? 

Favourite Football-based Movie? 

Favourite Football Documentary? 

First football match? 

If you could watch just 1 football match for the rest of your life what would it be? 

Football never existed, what's your go to alternative? 

You can change 1 decision in football history, what would it be? 

Interested to get people's take on this. 

I get that players have ambitions and want to further there careers but sometimes the grass isn't greener on the other side. Brentford have progressed this season to narrowly miss out on a European place themselves. Is a move to Spurs really a step up given their record of trophyless seasons they've endured for many years?

From what I've heard Brentford are more than willing to let Raya leave and have set a price tag but none of the interested clubs seem willing on paying it. 

Raya has been solid in goal for Brentford this season and there's a reason for such interest being shown in him but I think comments like this are unacceptable and basically makes the player sound like he's bigger and better than the club which should never be the case in any club.

Paul Warne said David McGoldrick's exit from Derby County was a "spiritual" decision as he opened up on the striker's move to boyhood club Notts County.

McGoldrick turned down the offer of a new deal with the club to join the Magpies last weekend with the forward penning a two-year contract at Meadow Lane.

The former Sheffield United striker was a huge favourite at Pride Park but the lure of returning to the club which kickstarted his career proved too difficult to resist in a move that was romance over finance.

McGoldrick was at Wembley to watch the Magpies regain their place in the Football League and he returned 19 years after his departure.

Warne said he had been trying to convince the Derby's player of the season to stay since the turn of the year but after much deliberating, the forward decided to head home.

"I am sorry to see him go," Warne told Rams TV. "Since January I've been encouraging him to sign a contract. He will tell you this but he just wanted to get to the summer to see where he is at.

"At one stage I wasn't even sure he was going to play on. He had an amazing season. I wanted to keep him. We had a conversation at the training ground for about three hours about two to three weeks ago now.

"He wanted more time to think about it, but we had to put a deadline on it because it couldn't keep dragging out for either team in fairness. It wasn't a financial thing. It was a spiritual thing to play for his boyhood club.

"If Derby fans played for Bristol City and Derby came in, you'd want to go and play for Derby. It was the same for Didzy.

Notts are actively seeking to recruit a new CEO to replace Jason Turner who sadly passed away recently.

Whoever it is have big boots to fill.

I've just come on to PoN and see that today is the birthday of our very own 'International man of mystery' Happy birthday  @Fan of Big Tone.I hope you have a lovely day but don't crack the Guess who  topic.So come on folks, please acknowledge a landmark day for  one of our most consistent(and am I really saying this) genuinely nice contributors .

I’m curious to know how you use the Pride of Nottingham and what you enjoy about it. I’ll share my own habits and thoughts first.

I try to visit most days, but sometimes I find it difficult to sit with my computer at the moment. The Pride of Nottingham is the source that keeps me feeling connected to Notts. Reading views on Notts is like having a third eye. I read what posters say and take it on board, but I also form my own opinion.

I like the topics about what members are doing in their lives. I feel this gives a good sense of community. Instead of just a username you may discuss Notts with, you see their real person and I encourage these types more.

I don’t have a routine as such. I will check the articles for new stories, but sometimes I go straight to my notifications. I try to post comments to at least 10 items per day. Sometimes, just out of enjoyment, I do quite a lot more. I try to add value in everything I write and I take pride in that. I enjoy seeing people reply to my discussions. It’s interesting to see and read members’ opinions.

What about you? What are your habits like? How many posts do you reply to on average? Do you read the articles? Do you read content and choose not to reply? How often do you visit per day?

Welcome to you, @Sirrels County. It's great to see another new member join in.

My son has just been round to wish me happy Father’s Day look what he brought.

Up We Go beer from Magpie Brewery of course and a cheeky card.

As we should have been in Corfu we are treating the next few days as a sort of holiday, eating good food, drinking more than normal (we’ll I am anyway) , going out etc.

Today we went to a garden centre and bought some plants and had a meal in the cafe. Tonight we are having Rib Eye Steak and chips for tea.

Tomorrow we are going to a local Indian restaurant with our son and family. Not sure about Sunday yet.

Anyone else doing something exciting this weekend?

When a 14 year old comes on for 30 mins in a youth team game and you know how special he is

 

"One great positive from today was introducing 14-year-old Jack Bearne into the team. Jack is a fantastic talent, which I've known since I arrived at this club nearly seven years age. Watching him develop has been a pleasure.
 
"He came on for the last 30 minutes today and at times he lights it up. He's a real prospect and I'm sure fans will see him feature even more for us in the coming games this season."
 
Notts line-up: Searson-Smithard, Cobain (Anstey 60'), Dunn, Brownhill (C), Richards, McCartney, Clayton-Naute, Howes, Campbell (Robinson 80'), Osborne, Gibbons (Bearne 60')

Apparently Notts have offered a contract to this bloke.

Sorry, this has been upload late a Sunday. But, I've been enjoying a weekend at Center Parcs with @ARLukomski

Again, not really been up to much this week. I was at work at the beginning of the week.

I watched @ARLukomskiplay football on thursday. 

Then Friday to tomorrow morning we have been at Center Parcs. 

It's been a fun week. We've played Football Pool, Golf, Pool, went swimming, tennis, bowled. Then we have done plenty of walking around. Also, we've ate plenty of Ice cream. 

Been a good week. How has your week been?

Speckled Hen, Golden Hen, Wainwrights, Newcastle Brown, Marstons Pedigree, Ruby Hobgoblin and Golden Hobgoblin all £1 a bottle, fill yer trolley @super_ram :happybanana:

This person is not a fan; he cost the club a fine of around £10,000. How can someone who is 28 years old and claims to be a fan of a football club resort to such stupidity for a bet? Did his partner nag him about the amount of money he was spending on tickets and alcohol, so he took a bet to invade the pitch? I cannot make sense of it. I think these types of people are idiots and not true fans of football. Why would anyone want to be banned from watching their club for something so pointless?

Quote

A football supporter who ran on to the pitch to win a £25 bet has been banned from attending matches for three years.

Nottinghamshire Police said the incident happened during the game between Notts County and Halifax Town at Meadow Lane on 28 January.

Jake Pavier entered the pitch in the 86th minute before being detained by stewards and handed over to the police.

The 28-year-old was sentenced at Nottingham Magistrates' Court on Wednesday.

Rodrigues, O’Brien, Cameron and Nemane were offered their deals a few weeks ago and it’s all gone quiet. I suspect we’ll hear something in the coming week but what are your gut feelings about who is staying and who is going? 

I’m going to say 2 go and 2 stay. Ruben and Nemane moving on (and up). Cameron and O’Brien staying.

What do you think?

My thoughts are with the victims and their loved ones.

Why do things like this happen.
