  1. My next door neighbour is a lovely bloke and him and his wife were very good to us when we’d just moved into our house and our lives took a devastating turn for the worst.

    We get on really well however he is a Fword fan, we have some great banter and just recently he’s put a sign on his garden gate (see picture) which he leaves open and it’s the first thing I see when I open my back door.

    My question is can I buy anything similar to put up that is Notts County related just to get my own back.

    Any suggestions gratefully received.

    Apologies for posting this picture.

  2. I woke up this morning having a pretty horrible dream about my brother, well it was a nightmare really, it has prompted me to go and see him, we are the only two members of our family who are left.

    I don’t usually remember my dreams but this was pretty vivid and I woke up sweating 😓, anyone else have nasty dreams?

  3. happy birthday @BenBlyth

    are you still doing photography? hope you have a good birthday.

  4. do you think some of the issues with the way notts have played is partly down to the club having too much pressure on themselves to do well this season?

    i wonder if the defence dont feel comfortable with fitzsimons and visa versa.

    could collin have made that much of a difference in goal? nobody will credit him but when he played well, so did notts. if the defence stumbled so did collin. i am not impressed by fitzsimons, i dont think hes taken his chance or faith shown in him by kn. what do you think?

    Do you think Notts will use the emergency loan window?

  6. Good morning PoN. Well how are we all feeling the morning after the night before, was it all a bad dream? I’m going to try and forget about it to be honest.

     This morning I’m doing a Park Run, “what’s that?” I hear you say, well it’s a 5 kilometre run in a park, there will probably be around 400 people, some take it more serious than others, at the end your time and position is recorded then you can try to get better by beating your time next week if you want. It’s good exercise and good fun, I’ve done around 14 up to now my best time is 30 minutes 14 seconds.

    Not much else happening today apart from recovering from my run, I hope everyone has a good day. Come on and tell us what you are doing on a football free Saturday.

  7. Good morning PoN and what a beautiful one it is here, the sun is streaming through the windows and the temperature is climbing.

    Its match night tonight, I’m looking forward to the game later on let’s hope we can get that first win under our belts.

    Before that some more work has come in for me to do so I’ll be busy on the computer and popping on here from time to time. If I’ve got time this afternoon I want to get in my camper van to investigate air getting into the water system, I think there’s a leak somewhere but the pipes disappear all over the place, should be fun.

    So what is everybody else up to, who’s going to the match? What are you doing during the day? Let’s keep the daily chat going.

  8. Are you ready for County’s 3rd Game of the season against Yeovil on Friday night. 

    Who’s coming to the lane then.?

  9. You will now need to have a digital radio to follow the Notts matches, Radio Nottingham will broadcast F*r*st commentary on both 103.8 and 95.5 FM and Notts matches on digital. This is because they can no longer broadcast on MW.

    Seems a bit unfair on Notts fans who haven’t got a digital radio. Thoughts?

  10. So the magpie was none another than Gary Liddle 

    welldone to Everyone that guessed correctly.

    Maybe share any stories you have.?

  12. Good morning all, I thought I would try this idea again, it’s one I’ve tried on here before with not much success. It might work better now we’ve got more people posting.  The idea is we have a daily thread and just put a few words about your daily lives, a bit like you might do on Facebook etc.

    I had a good nights sleep no nightmares thankfully. 

    Its raining here which I’m not too sad about because I’ve got computer work to do for my website, so I will be mostly on the computer pretty much all day.

    Both me and Mrs. Big Tone are on a diet I was pleased I had lost another three quarters of a pound this morning when I stepped on the scales. Down to 11 stone 9 now, two years ago I was 13 stone 7.

    Whats everyone else up to? How’s the weather where you are?

  13. Name your three favourite singers or bands?

    PON's members will have a wide variety of taste I suspect when it comes to music, so I am interested to know what everyone's three favourite acts are.

  17. So over the last few days I’ve been re watching only fools and horses and they never get old to me only funnier. 

    Are there any other only fools fans on here.?

      @NottsTastic @DeadlyDennis Please reconsider, this forum is not usually prone to these sort of spats and as I said in my post @Northants Pie is certainly not like this normally perhaps he’s having a bad time who knows.

      As you saw @Magic magpie was straight on the case and several members came to your defence, things like this will be jumped on immediately we want this to remain a friendly forum, I really hope you reconsider as your presence has been a breath of fresh air.

      As @Fan of Big Tone says Please reconsider.You didn't deserve the comments aimed at you but your opinions are welcomed and it 's obvious how PoN members feel.

      I thought Notts did very well to lead but questions have to be asked why we stand off players when defending, it always seems a last thought to put in a foot. All they have to do is block the ball at times but they choose to allow runs directly into dangerous positions.

      Starting XI:

      Fitzsimons
      Hewitt  Duffy  Bird
      Hawkridge  Crawford  Husin  Kellett  Jones
      Stead  Alessandra 

      Subs used :  Campbell  Patching  Brisley 
      Not used :  Dunne, Osborne, Thomas
      Pindroch withdrawn from starting XI after being injured in the warm up. 

      A string of changes from last Saturday as KN gave his fringe players some game time.  In previous years we've gone home saying that nobody had staked a claim for the following match. Not the case this time. Husin, Kellett and Crawford ran the show as Notts were more than a match for a 'Boro side who also rested much of their senior squad. Crawford fully deserved his debut goal and only faded in the last half hour as the furious pace of the game began to take its toll on him. Bird also had a good game, and Alessandra put himself forward for Friday with a fine, hardworking display.

      Given that Hemmings, Vaughan, Thomas, and Boldewijn are likely to be restored to the side on Friday night, it'll be interesting to see how Notts line up. I suspect that Tootle is carrying a knock, having been subbed at Cambridge. Jones played the full 90mins last night, as did Stead and Duffy. Not ideal when you're over 30 and your next game is only 72 hours away.  

      I therefore think we'll see a change of formation.  I can see Notts starting as they did last night, with a back 3, and a 5-man midfield.  I'm a bit reluctant to stick my neck out and try to predict the starting XI..... but I'll be surprised and disappointed if Kellett and Husin aren't in the middle with Vaughan, and I believe Alessandra will start up front with Hemmings, because Dennis isn't quite fully match fit. 

      271 Notts fans made the trip, in a crowd of 9,942....double what I thought there'd be....which was probably down to Middlesbrough slashing prices to just £10 for adults. Thanks to them for that.  

      Also, thanks a bunch to the inconsiderate a**eholes, s**theads and b*****ds who make up the Dept of Transport, for closing large sections of the Southbound A1 last night,  forcing us to divert to York through the winding countryside of the old A19, then onto the A64, before rejoining the A1 just North of Leeds. This stroke of genius put an extra 50 miles and an extra 90mins on our return journey. I crawled into bed at 2am.  

      Natty

      just to correct Natty's otherwise excellent report...Duffy was subbed after 55 mins by Brisley

  19. I don't understand why people are worried only two games into the season.

    Fans are giving the owner grief on Twitter, he's reacting negatively and all this feel good factor feels like poison again. So why the meltdown?

  20. I’ve been away (nothing new there) and there have been lots of new members join so I’d just like to say welcome to you all, this is a great forum where you will find friendly chat and banter about Notts, football and anything else you want to discuss.

    Any lurkers reading this, take the plunge, join in, we don’t bite,honest. 😜

  21. I just noticed we have a new member! Welcome @Dh100.

  22. Hello @Gaddes, Its nice to see you have joined the Pride of Nottingham.

  23. Hello,

    I have been supporting Notts since I was 7 years old, I attend games with my father and uncle. I like discussing the club and reading what sensible fans have to say about things. I don't like posting on social media because angry fans tend to be abusive.

    I am 13 years old.
