France are winners. Worthy winners. Mbappe player of the tournament for me, just ahead of Modric. 

Kane wins golden boot 

What does PON members think about the upcoming Derby friendly? Who should play? Do you think Kevin Nolan should stick to playing those who have performed well in the two friendlies and make changes as what is needed during the game?

I'm looking forward to it.

One of the most traumatic pieces of television ever produced.

Utterly brilliant and utterly terrifying.

Waiting for the final episode next week of Season two, and the rollercoaster it takes you on is immense. 

As a person that promotes feminism, I’ve found it difficult to watch, but compelling to see the relationships build and falter.

I read the book for A Level many moons ago and the first season used up most of the available written story, so applause for the writing team to move forwards on their own with new scripts (Even if Margaret Atwood did chip in and help!)

Not one for the children, but one to show them when they are old nough to understand how equality should be in any situation.

Through out the competition you guys have been predicting the scores. 

Thankyou very much for all taking part in a few mins I’m gunner announcing the winner just going to make sure it’s correct.

One of my biggest passions in life is music - I could spend all day just going through Youtube, Soundcloud and so on listening to anything and everything from world-famous artists to little known singers and DJs.

There's one singer I'm listening to at this moment who many people probably have never heard of, but I think is absolutely incredible.

Karise Eden is an Australian soul singer, she was on The Voice a few years ago and completely smashed it - she's basically Janis Joplin incarnate.

In this thread I want people to think about an artist they know who is not particularly well known among the general public, but think they're so good that they deserve an airing.

Here is Karise's cover of This Is A Man's World by James Brown. Incredible stuff.

So will anybody be watching the World Cup Final on Sunday.?

Morning all, looks like it’s going to be another scorching weekend.

England v Belgium 

Sunday 

4pm 

World Cup Final 

France v Croatia 

I noticed that @Natty has unearthed on Facebook who the trailist keeper was in yesterday's game against Basford, It's Richard Walton and he looked alright.

He's only 20 and sounds more vocal than Pindroch does.

I thought he looked more experienced than a player in his 20's, so hopefully we take him on as the backup keeper. Give him some time against Derby and see. https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/richard-walton/profil/spieler/407332

So Alan Hardy and Kevin Nolan have definitely stepped up there chase for promotion with the amount of signings so far.

Do you think that Kevin and Alan will make anymore or is that is.? 

Good decision by both Ronaldo and Real Madrid, he needs a fresh challenge and I think he would do very well in Italy. Fee is quite insane for a player of his age but he will make Juventus stronger, they really should further strengthen their squad up though.

I think Kevin Nolan should appoint David Vaughan as the new club captain, what does every else here think?

He has a good level of experience, David's lead previous clubs and he would be an influential player on the field. If not, I would say use the friendlies as a way to mentor who has the best leadership qualities and is able to make others focus/lift them.

Richard Duffy constantly swearing and his habit of making mistakes makes me hopeful somebody else will become the captain.

If not David, who else could be?

So the squad numbers are released dose anyone have the players number and name on their shirts or personalised shirt with wht number and name.?

one thing i have been doing since i was 16 is saving my wages, i dont go out much to places that costs me money and the only place i do is when i attend notts games. i hope to save enough to buy a home or apartment for myself one day, its the dream and i am working towards that.

what about you?

Squad numbers have finally been released have a look tell us what you think. 

https://www.nottscountyfc.co.uk/squadnumbers

England v Croatia in their first semi final for over 10 years will you be watching.? 

So who on here has got an England flag flying on their property or their car?

My next door neighbour has both, I feel a bit guilty that I haven’t but I don’t want to now in case I jinx it.

So my apologies I said I would choose the best caption this on Tuesday but unfortunately I couldn’t just choose one guys can we congratulate the joint winners of caption this this week  is ..! 

@nottsnutter and @ScottyP
