Brilliant week this week, celebrated my 20th birthday on friday with @ARLukomski, we celebrated in Frankie and Benny's, I got a free meal which is a bonus.
I did have to do 5 days at work before my birthday, but they were good shifts, nice and easy.
I saw a cracking game of football last night, what a goal by Enzio! Feel sorry for my family as some of them are Chesterfield fans, but can't go to matches.
Just writing this on the train to Nottingham to meet up with @Chris, which I am looking forward to and having a nice catch up.
Overall, January was an alright month, not much happened really apart from a trip to Maidenhead, a birthday and a load of work shifts. Now we move onto February, lets see what happens this month.
How was your week and January as a whole?

Which captures the win the best in your opinion?

Chesterfield have secured the loan signing of Nathan Tyson until end of the season.
https://www.nottscountyfc.co.uk/news/2020/january/tyson-to-chesterfield-220120/
His body language the last few times that I have seen him, well, it told a story. I know he spoke to @NottsGeezer - he also told me that he wanted to be playing and felt 'disappointed' that he didn't get much game time after his injury. I hope this loan move works for him, as I thought he might consider hanging up his boots.

Fitzsimons 8 - For all that has gone on this week, his professionalism was absolute first class. Credit to the club today. Two good saves along with a penalty save. Ross Fitzsimons baby
Brindley 6 - Sometimes chose the wrong option when passing but solid enough
Rawlinson 7 - Dealt with Denton the bean pole. Brought the ball out of defence
Lacey 7 - Solid again. Dealt with Denton. Didn't really have to deal with Boden as he wasn't there
Kelly-Evans 8 - Superb. Made runs forward. Did well defensively and passing was good
Roberts 8 - Excellent first home game. Brilliant passing and carried the ball well. Cracking assist for KW. Pure sauce
O'Brien 8 - Kept it ticking. Made the passing and the football flow so nicely
Rose 6 - Solid. Better overall with his distribution
Boldewijn 7 - Scored a belter, won the ball back and ran at the opposition. He's good at that. When he runs at the oppositions defence they don't know what to do. Carries the ball forward so well
Thomas 6 - Didn't have the best of first halves but battled away. Ended up being K-dub's show
Wootton 7 - 2 goals and was much better 2nd half. Got into the game more and good positioning for the second goal
Crawford 6 - Shored the midfield up to help us see the game out
Bird 6 - Clearance at the back post helped us to a clean sheet. Like Crawford helped us see the game out
Dennis 6 - Not much for him to do as we were already 3 up and game was over
-
Who should come in and replace him? I think Jim O’Brien will need a few more games to be match sharpe, Regan Booty is out supposedly with a back injury.
I’m not worried, I think it will actually help the club in the long run.

Great performance, we just need to pinch ourselves and bear in mind that we can struggle at times.
Fantastic finishing.
-
The Notts squad stepped up, one issue about the performance is those who will moan if its not repeated, rather than just enjoying this win. All the goals were of excellent quality, I thought Notts could have scored more.
They kept the tempo for the most part and made Chesterfield work.
Very poor team, their keeper played a shocking game.
-
The result is a very good one, I didn't expect Notts to beat Chesterfield 3-0. I thought Chesterfield would have put up more resistance and took the game to Notts, it could be a very important win come the end of the season.

More people are becoming aware that food and products are shrinking, but the prices don't.
Do you accept this as normal?
Does it put you off the products or do you just shop smarter? I am curious to hear opinions on this.

Some of you might have heard about this in the news ... the former Chesterfield and Huddersfield player Jordan Sinnott has died at the age of just 25 after suffering a fractured skull after a night out in Retford.
https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-nottinghamshire-51249670
For any of you planning a night out next weekend, just remember to look after yourselves and avoid anyone who's looking for trouble. It only takes one idiot for something tragic to happen

I don’t watch a lot of television, but I have subbed to Netflix due to recommendations and I do have cable installed now in my home.
My question is......
What are you watching right now?
Do you have any suggestions on what to watch too? Let me know.

Former forward Mick Vinter has sadly passed away yesterday at the age of 65.
He joined notts in 1971 and the magpies were his first professional team. Mick left Notts in 1979 but continued to live in nottingham as a coach when he retired as a player.

It has been announced that Ross Fitzsimons has gone on loan to Chesterfield for the rest of the season. He hasnt been in our squad very much at all this season.
Here is our twitter announcement
Whats your thoughts?

I am not trying to put further blame on Enzio Boldewijn, I’m just curious as to what people think.
Has Enzio proved his transfer fee so far?
Do you think, Notts can recoup it if it doesn’t work out?
With all the rumours surrounding him in the summer, I thought he might have left but reading comments he appears to be an enigma at this point in time.
-
Fitzsimons 5 - Made two good saves in the first half but spilt the ball in the 2nd half, gifting them their 2nd goal
Brindley 6 - Got forward more than he has done recently without the end product
Rawlinson 5 - Not his best game
Lacey 6 - Good in the air but the Lacey-Rawlo partnership had an off day
Bakayogo 4 - Got forward but didn't result in anything. Went back too often, before sending Doyle to football hospital with a horrendous pass
Roberts 5 - Didn't really see much of the ball but should have scored in the 1st half
Rose 3 - Offered nothing all game. Kept attempting the long throws as well which ended in nothing. Don't know how he wasn't subbed
Doyle 6 - Was the only player with an ounce of bravery in his passing until the moment when Zoumana sent him for an early bath
Boldewijn 4 - Sometimes Enzio gets too much stick but today he did not look bothered I'm afraid. Didn't use his head when knowing what pass or run to make. Finally turned up with 10 to go
Wootton 6 - Did what he could with poor service. Tried to do it himself after we got sent down to 10 men
Dennis 6 - Battled away but like Wootton no real service
O'Brien 6 - Came on and played two passes which make brave passing look simple. Hopefully, fully fit for next Saturday. Need him big time
Thomas 5 - Had the chance to get through on goal once or twice, but didn't get to the ball

Not much has happened for me this week, just work, work and work. Just picking up the extra hours here and there.
Working for the next 5 days, but got the weekend off for my birthday, so I am looking forward to that.
My test results from the doctors came back clear so I am happy with that (I wasn't when I first got them ).
Very boring week for me this. How has everyone else's week been?

Not a good result but with the player sheet, i sort of expected a defeat.
-
Yes 3 points to them unfortunetly... Onwards and upwards.
-
I was watching a few football related videos on YouTube and it got me thinking.
What are the earliest signs for you, that Notts could have a good season?

Where will Notts finish?
Will Chesterfield end up relegated?
