I watched the FA Cup highlights and noticed that Enzio is now plying his trade at Eastleigh. They beat League 1 Reading in the 2nd round and Enzio had a hand in both goals, looked like he had a good game.

Swansea City v Huddersfield Town

Crewe Alexandra v Bristol Rovers

Gillingham v Charlton Athletic

Newport County v Barnet

On Saturday Notts take on Walsall at Meadow Lane, how many links between the two clubs can we find?

Brett Angel came to us on loan I remember him scoring a hattrick on his debut but his stay was short lived he only made 6 appearances, he had a brief spell at Preston N.E. Before moving to Walsall making 61 appearances and scoring 16 goals.

How many more links can we find?

What’s everyone got planned for the weekend? Who’s heading to the lane tonight? Who’s Christmas Shopping? Who’s seeing family? What are your plans, let us know.

I’m coming to the end of our week in snowy Whitby, tonight we are heading out for a curry it’ll make a change for Mrs. T she usually cooks curry on Friday when we are at home. Tomorrow we are travelling home, we have to go over the moors on a road which has been closed this week because of snow, I hope it’s clear tomorrow otherwise we’ll be extending our stay.

It’s not all been snow here’s a few pics.

The last pic isn’t mine but one someone posted on the local facebook group.

One of my all time favourites, I loved listening to The Pogues in my misspent youth.

Look away now

An interesting game to watch last night.

When we have discussions on Notts defenders, the real difference is that Barcelona have defenders that are more comfortable on the ball and can see simple and execute forward passes much quicker than Notts defenders. 

What does everyone want, more football of course! It's been a full on week for Notts this week and it's time to finish it off in the FA Cup against L1 opposition, Shrewsbury Town.

They currently sit in 12th place. It sounds pretty decent but when you dig a bit deeper you wonder how they've managed it. They've only scored 12 goals (in 20 games!) and they haven't won an away game since August! I'm guessing their injury crisis has impacted their season as they’ve currently got 11 first team players out injured. Whilst it’s obviously awful for them, it’s pretty good for us.

Here are some comments from SalopCast about their game on Tuesday against Exeter…

A lot of effort but a lack of quality. Salop can’t keep the ball and end up sitting deep. Passing accuracy in the 50’s again…

Trying to figure out our game plan is puzzling me. We seem to be bypassing our midfield and trying to win free kicks and corners. Our wing backs and midfielders are never on the ball. Our strikers never win the ball or keep it for more than 5 seconds.

Salop actually have possession, ball to Udoh who is near the box and Udoh just shoots at a defender in front of him. No thought about passing. No runners. Nothing. We are so bad. So so f****** s***. What the actual f*** is Taylor doing with this team in the week?

Salop come home with a point. A real slugfest against a poor Exeter side. Positives: clean sheet and a point on the road Negatives: many.

Are they confident?

Notts County are going to destroy us on Friday.

Not much time off for either team but I think we’ll be in better health. I guess Stone will be back in goal, and I’d expect one of Rawlo or Brinds back in just for the sake of being fresh. Maybe even Gosling will start and I hope Morias starts as well. Anyway, chance to get a dream 3rd round draw if we win so I’m looking forward to it!

I never did rate Schofield in our relegation season.

Hello, I decided to join and introduce myself. I have been following Notts for approximately four years. Although I wasn't born into supporting the club, I chose Notts after relocating following my studies. The friendliness of the club is what I appreciate, and I have been regularly attending most home games since Notts joined the National League.

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

Ever wondered what all the fuss is about the Elgin Marbles?

James Ancaster describes it perfectly. ????
