I felt disappointed yesterday with all the moans and groans. I have watched Notts for many years and have seen all the bad times: the foundation of Lifeline, which gave the club much-needed support, many relegations, and all the hassle from the last two ownerships. I don’t know why some people feel the need to be vocally disconcerting and get on the players’ backs over a pre-season friendly. It would be nice to have just one season where these fans kept quiet. There is no need for it. Why direct disrespectful comments to some of the younger squad members? They may have made mistakes, but they will learn. Will these fans be there the next time something happens where a bit of support is required?

Welcome to the Pride of Nottingham, @Jones10. Are you a Notts fan? Is the Jones a reference to Jodi Jones? I hope you join in with us here on PON.

This is on of my favourites when Michael Doyle scored from the half way line. What’s your favourite?

”Michael Doyle in your life…..” ????

On Saturday 22nd July Notts County travel to Boston to take on the Pilgrims.

How many players, managers it coaches etc., can we name that are linked to both clubs?

I’ll start off with two former Notts players who became managers with Boston.

Arthur Mann managed Boston between 1984-1986 and he was succeeded by another former Notts player RayO’Brien who managed them between 1986-1987.

This is only to be expected but nonetheless very sad.

It’s being said that Oldham and Chesterfield will battle it out for National League title and it will be as gripping as the battle between Wrexham and Notts at the top.

Let’s talk about the latest trends and innovations in the tech world.

This a curious post to see if, other than Notts, is there a team that people follow or keep an eye out for results? 

For me, I follow Orlando City and keep an eye out on how Coalville Town are doing. 

When Sky Sports started broadcasting the MLS on a regular basis, I was regularly tuning in to watch games (any chance to watch football I took tbf). So when more and more teams started becoming part of the MLS I wanted a team to follow over in the States. Having been to Orlando on multiple occasions and having a real fondness for the place, I thought it fitting to follow Orlando City. Been following them for about 7 or 8 years now. One day I'd love to go back to Orlando and hopefully go see them play. 

As for Coalville, I've been to see them numerous times as their ground is about a 20 minute walk away from where I live. Due to them being local, I often keep an eye out to see how they're doing and go down to watch them with the kids whenever I can. 

The only time I've been against Coalville when watching them was when they came to the San Sirrel in the FA Cup. Imagine the journey I would've had on the way back from Nottingham to Coalville with my lad. I was dreading it, my lad had a Notts County hat and scarf on that day but fortunately not much in terms of Coalville fans while making the journey home ????

Welcome to PoN! 

Can you all join in and welcome our new member @Michael D P

Hello, @rohan, Welcome to the Pride of Nottingham.

Everyone, let's welcome our newest member into the community.

I encourage people to watch this. It's a real eye opener and shows a different perspective to what has been mentioned in the past. 

Now that everything's out in the open and Dele's getting himself back on track, I hope that this is his rise back into being the player he had the ability to become. He's still got some years in him. 

It's also great to see him being so open with Neville and sharing some very personal issues he's had to deal with from a young age that many people might not be aware of and how he dealt with them which hopefully encourages more people to talk, get help and be able to open up more about things rather than dealing with issues the wrong way.

I’m not sure if it’s just me or if it’s due to streaming and having everything just a download away. When I was younger, I would have the urge to watch certain films. I would put in a VHS tape or later, a DVD. I own quite a lot of films, all of which were favourites of mine in some way or another. Sometimes, I think about a film I haven't seen in a long time and eventually, I can't resist the temptation to watch it. However, these days I don’t think much about films I have seen. I rarely watch DVDs any more since everything is available for streaming. What is your experience?

There was a period where I would watch something I previously enjoyed at least once or twice a week, but now it’s more like every 3–6 months. It’s a habit I really need to break. Halloween and Christmas are the only exceptions, as we enjoy watching Hocus Pocus and Home Alone 1 and 2.

Is it just me? Is it an age thing? Share your thoughts below.

I was rather hoping we’d sign him, it’s a great signing for Gateshead.

On Tuesday 18th July Notts travel to Telford for a friendly match with AFC Telford.

How many players, coaches, managers etc., can we name that have links with both clubs?

I’ll start you off with Spencer Weir-Davis who played for Notts between 2007 and 2009 making 40 appearances scoring 3 goals.

Over to you how many more can we name?

First time seeing Notts vs Forest so here goes

- Good performance first half. Controlled the game and created some clear cut chances. Promising against a team who had a lot more first team players out than last year

- Palmer and Jones had good games. The tempo and passing quality are still there with Matty and Jodi, with a full pre-season will be exciting 

- Nemane and Tobi linked up well down the right and given time, that link could flourish. Nice to see an adaptation to the system, where we fall back into a back 4 when defending. Some defensively problems sorted but not all which brings me on to...

- The fact we still need a CB. Our lack of pace is still worrying and without Baldwin, our calmness on the ball isn't as high. AB not having played a single minute of pre-season is worrying. However I imagine that Claxton playing there means we may be after one ????

- I was impressed with Nathan Claxton when he came on. Comfortable with the ball, decent positioning, brought the ball out from the back. Give him a few more games, but we still need a CB

- We looked a lot more sharper and up to speed than we did last week. Still some rough edges to smooth over but it comes with pre-season games. The link up play will get better with games
