Notts county’s home game against against Newport County on the 19th January 2019 has been postponed due to Newport County reaching the 4th round of the fa cup. 

No details of the re scheduled date has been released yet. 

 

Notts County and the gaffer have today received some good news as winger Enzio Boldewijn is ahead of schedule as he looks to return to the first team earlier than the original three month assessment suggested.

Enzio who was injured back in November and underwent surgery to repair his knee in the 1-1 draw his return was first scheduled middle of February but it seems he is ahead of schedule.

The gaffer said “he is making excellent progress and is pencilled in to return to full training next week”

Has anyone on Pon been to a Ilkeston town match if so what did you think.?

So this Saturday Notts play Cambridge in a bottom of league two clash at meadow lane as Alan announced it will be £2 a ticket like last February again Crewe. 

Who’s coming to meadow lane to cheer the lads on this Saturday in our must win game against Cambridge.

So Notts county are on their 3rd manager in as many months. First it started with the sacking of Kevin Nolan, when County fell into the relegation zone and didn’t perform well enough. 

Then Harry Kewell whom came with a price tag from Crawley and the desire to change this and keep Notts county in league two.  

Now the hiring of Neal Ardley the manager who not only saved afc Wimbledon from relegation but got them promoted to league one. 

So my question is this- is Neal Ardley the right man to save Notts County, is he the right man for the job.?

Alan Hardy has just announced via twitter that Notts have completed the second signing of the January transfer window.

Alan Hardy has said that the identity of the player can’t be revealed till this afternoon (not Alan or Notts county’s choice)

Congratulations to John stead who scored his fiftieth goal in a Notts County shirt in our 3-3 draw.

Congratulations to captain steady a true magpie.????????

how does notts improve the away form?

its obvious that the away form this season has been shocking, it seems the players cant perform away from home and i wonder why. the squad can play well at home but it seems more of a task to perform on the road. one or two goals seems to be a enough to sink the confidence of the camp and then there is little fight.

what can neal ardley do to improve this? do we need an away team/formation?

Notts county have confirmed the second signing of January in the way of Scottish midfielder Jim O’Brien.

Notts have secured Jim’s services on a permanent deal and for free. 

The experienced midfielder comes to Notts after his departure from Bradford.

Welcome to pon @Colin Lindley

Pon has a lot to offer and some great members, young and old, in the community.

Guy can we welcome our new member to Pon @Laurie Baczynski .. great to have you with us.

Current Points = 21

Remaining Fixtures:

Cambridge (H) = 3

Yeovil (A) = 1

Newport (H) = 3

Lincoln (H) = 0

FGR (A) = 0

Mansfield (H) = 1

Tranmere (A) = 0

Port Vale (H) = 3

Cheltenham (A) = 1

Carlisle (A) = 0 

Morecambe (H) = 3

Exeter (H) = 0

Stevenage (A) = 3

Northampton (H) = 1

Crewe (A) = 0

MKD (H) = 0

Crawley (A) = 3

Grimsby (H) = 3

Swindon (A) = 0

Total Points = 46 points

All predictions based on current form and other teams home/away form. This is scary people that we might even fall short of the 50 pts mark which would mean relying on other teams around us dropping points. I have had the next two games as 4 points but if we lose both games or can't get at least 4 points then we can consider our relegation imminent. 

So this weekend is the fa cup 3rd round with league 2 and none league sides still left in the fight along with the premier league giants Man City, Man Utd, Chelsea  and other such teams. 

So who’s going to lift the fa cup season.?

 

Can we take any positives from the 3-3 draw with Colchester.? 

Game 27 - The U's (A)

Team: Colchester United

Date: 05/01/19

Where: Colchester Community Stadium

What line-up should Neal Ardley opt for? What will be the key areas for the Magpies to get a victory? What do you think the final score will be?

  • The amount of leads given away this season shows a real weakness but at this stage I would rather take the point than to lose the game. I just hope some sort of improvement can be made with the defence because it's a bigger problem than some fans realise.

    I still feel quite disappointed because imagine how much of a boost the three points would have been, there's no justification for giving a 2 goal lead away and Colchester by their own admission wasn't very good.

    I've spoken to fans who have said how both teams looked quite poor.

    Colchester's have praised how we attacked but have been very critical of our defence, however some of our own fans feel it's perfectly fine in a relegation battle to throw a game away. I mean I would take the point and would have done at the start, it's just the way in which Notts did draw. It's disappointing, once Colchester knocked it back to just a one goal lead for us, we should have done a lot more to protect the back.

    I feel its a good draw and the game was quite entertaining but I just feel disappointed too.

    Neal Ardley's changes seemed too defensive minded and this impacted the squad negativity in my opinion, I hope he learns to instruct the players to attack because it became embarrassing at times seeing how deep the players was at times.

It’s no secret that since Neal Ardley arrived at Meadow Lane both players and fans have taken to him as one of our own. 

Under Neal the squad has shown some fight and signs of improvement, but every time it looks like Notts are back on the right road they slip and suffer defeat. 

This was the result on Saturday, after a goalless draw with Bury, tails were once again up then the defeat to Oldham lead to more frustration ,none more than the gaffer. 

Since his arrival Ardley has been honest about his players in defeat and win and shown fighting talk and real passion for the club. 

After the weekend defeat at Oldham he gave his post match reaction to the Notts county website showing more frustration saying the response in the Oldham defeat wasn’t good enough. 

He also said it’s frustrating because he wants his squad to give the Notts fans the performance they deserve. 

Below is the link to the full post match with the gaffer.

Alan Hardy via his twitter account has told a fellow magpie that we have Made our first signing of the January transfer  market tonight the identity of the player  wasn’t released but it will be released tomorrow via the clubs website.

Notts have made there first signing of the January transfer window as Notts look to bolster there defence by signing centre back Ben Barcley from Brighton till the end of the season but it see’s fellow loanee Ben Hall return to the seagulls who is likely to miss the rest of the season due to injury.

What presents did you get? I thought it would be fun if we shared a picture of our gifts.

So following today’s result and the fact that Cambridge and Yeovil are three points and five points respectively ahead of us and the fact the fixture list has us facing Cambridge then Yeovil in the next two games.

my question to you guys and girls is can Notts take six points off the next two games.?

So with January here means one thing the transfer window is wide open and for Notts it can be seen as a blessing seeing Notts bottom of the league fans are wondering if Neal Ardley will make use of the window and bring players ins in.

But for this to happen the rumour is players  have to depart the club and last night I saw a picture screen shot from twitter saying Terry Hawkridge could be on his way out of meadow lane to Harrowgate Town if wages could be agreed. 

With fans giving there opinion on players who they think need to leave meadow lane this is one player I hadn’t heard many fans say they thought his time was done. 

Terry is liked by many magpie fans the winger  is always ready to help fans weather be Charity games or just stopping to speak to fans to giving fans his shirts.

Hawkridge arrived in 2017 the 28 year old has 34 appearances and 3 goals in his time so far at meadow lane. 

But is Hawkridge’s time up at meadow lane.? 

Would you be happy to see him go if he does leave in the window.?
