Would have suited Notts well, a right sided centre back

Notts travel to Morecambe on Tuesday, how many links can we find between the two clubs. Whenever I think of Morecambe I think of Sol Campbell and his first and last game for Notts but I digress.
A proper link would be Mark Quayle who played for Notts 1998-2000 before moving to Morecambe.
How many more links can we find?

On Saturday Notts take on Grimsby in the first home league game of the season in front of what should be a bumper crowd.
What links can we find between the two clubs?
One I can think of is Russell Slade who has managed both clubs.

Did anyone notice for the last 15 minutes of the game we crossed high into the box...... Why didn't the crosses come in like that when Scott was on the pitch????? I wasn't at all impressed by Scott's replacement..... In my eyes Morais will always be known as the Son of Akinfenwa!!!!!!!
I don't think Luke Williams put on a team to win the game so that we can focus on the league and get to where we want to be, so theres no distrations from cup games.
I wasn't interested in the League Cup, I don't think we've taken this or the FA Cup seriously for a while, oddly the EFL Trophy seems to have a higher priority. I wasn't surprised to see that we lost, what I did feel disappointed in was hearing Luke Williams say that nobody expects us to win a team a league above us. It just seemed a loss of menality towards achieving our potential. Did I expect to win? No, especiallly due to the Sutton game but to outright say it as a manager seemed more negative frustration than his usual carefully chosen words.

This definitely worth watching, very entertaining, I was interested to hear Charlie talk about his friendship with “the great man” Colin Slater, he visited him lots and was even present when he sadly passed away.

The days are getting shorter, tacky new shirts have been unveiled and fans up and down the country are putting their faith in a new 38-year-old workhorse who once had a good season for Burnley. It can only mean the main event is around the corner - the PON prediction league!
At least two days before every matchday I will post a thread with eight matches to predict (or six if we're REALLY busy), two each from the Championship, League One, League Two and the Conference. You then reply with your predicted scores. The cut-off time for posting is kick-off (in this case 3pm). At the end of it all I'll then post a table with the current standings.
Scoring system: 3 points for a correct score and 1 for a correct result. So if you predict Swindon to beat Walsall 2-1 and they do, you get 3 points; if Swindon win 1-0, you get 1 point. Each round you can also choose one match as your joker - any points you win for that match are then doubled.
EVERYONE is welcome to take part! Just post your predictions underneath, and remember to assign a joker. And if you have any difficulty, just drop me a line. Good luck!

New Rule changes were on full display for the upcoming season in the community shield yesterday between Arsenal and Man City. Dissent and kicking the ball away results in an automatic yellow card as well as changing the way the time is added on.
I'm actually in favour of these changes as it will hopefully stamp out time wasting and players have more to think about before doing some things that could stop the flow of the game which could allow a more free flowing game.
What do you guys make to the new rulings?

The result for me is the main thing, I wished we could be more positive in our attack in the first half. Scoring always seems to give Notts a boost and then our confidence comes from that, but whenever we attack the KOP, Notts just seem to control the game and it almost becomes routine. I really felt like we always stood a chance of winning, we just needed that quality and it's largely down to Jodi Jones that we did pick up the points.
I find comments about Arron Nemane to be very misleading, he wasn't wasting time. He literally had no good options to throw the ball, Grimsby made it a point to close down any options, and our players were way too static in this department. Aidan Stone should have been warned, but I think his drink of water leading to the yellow card was just the referee being trigger-happy with his cards.
Yes, the backward passing needs to be stamped out. Just hit the corners in, I don't see why we always insist on taking them short.
I don't believe I've ever witnessed the KOP being so upbeat and vociferous in my lifetime. It was an absolute delight to observe Notts in action, rallying to turn the game around with the entire crowd in the stands and the players on the field working collectively to secure those three points. Grimsby proved to be a formidable team and presented challenges, and while we did contribute to the difficulties at times, our performance in the second 45 minutes was outstanding.
I didn't have the opportunity to comment on this, but I found the victory to be exceptional. Considerable effort was invested in overcoming the two setbacks, and the entire squad contributed to transforming what could have been a potential defeat or draw into a win. The goals displayed a high level of quality, and they were all executed very well. The finishing from Grimsby's players was also outstanding. Their second goal was a beautifully executed move!
