I recall watching Match of the Day religiously back in 1998 because of Derby County's promotion into the Premier League, @super_ram was probably the most cheerful I've ever known him to be but something has struck me after seeing a video he shared to @Magic magpie on here. It's made me more convinced that the 'Mandela effect' is true!
It's either this or Super Ram has invented time travel to fix all these three fixtures, I mean I'd have recalled all these!!!
Especially this one! Can anyone else see Super waving to put off Ian Wright?
Results and performances like these it makes you wonder why they didn't win the league. Clearly something's a mist here!

Did anyone on here go to the unveiling of the Plaque on the wall of The Mercure Hotel, commemorating Notts County F C being founded there. Was organised by Andy Black. Saw it on the local news BBC news earlier.

Genaro Snijders has been well on the road from a social point of view, but the green turf continues to pull for the fast wing attacker. The only 28-year-old former player of Vitesse, Willem II and FC Oss hopes to be able to quickly show his skills in the Second or Third Division.
Social career
The player living in Almere no longer barks at a new club in professional football. ,, I am now looking for a club in the Second or Third Division. I would like to keep playing at the level, but I also chose to focus more on my social career. There will be family expansion and we want to stay with the children in the Netherlands. Recently I got a unique opportunity for a nice job and am working on setting up my own football school. I also have some nice projects in collaboration with the city of Amsterdam. What is now only missing is a nice club for me in one of the mentioned competitions ", Snijders told Voetbal247.Experience in professional football
In the past Snijders played for Vitesse, FC Omniworld, Willem II, FC Dordrecht and FC Oss among others. The attacker is, he says, ready for a new challenge. ,, After my departure from England, where I played at Notts County, I continued to train hard to stay fit. I have a lot to offer for a club from the Second or Third Division. I am only 28 years old and I have a lot of experience from professional football. "Passing on experience
The attacker looks back with a good feeling on the previous years in which he was active in professional football. "The highlight of my career as a professional football player was the period at Vitesse when I had to fight myself back after injury and of course also my last period as a professional football player in England. I would like to share my experiences with the new football school with the new generation of talents. With hard work and the right attitude you can achieve a lot. You do not have to be the best, but if you work harder you also get to your destination where you need to be. " -
Brighton's Ben Hall has returned on loan for the duration of the 2018/19 season.
Pleased to have another centre back signed up but I can't see him replacing Richard Duffy in Kevin Nolan's plans do you?
-
I said I’d never do this but I’ve and gone and bought a red car, not only is it red but it has white wing mirrors and roof bars so it’s actually red and white.
Please forgive me I looked and looked for a black and white one but this one was the exact spec I wanted.
I’ll quite understand if you want me banned from this place.
Yours in shame

Inevitable really. Bit annoyed but he's not irreplaceable.

Few new managers in League Two this year. Ryan Lowe, Joe Dunne and Dean Austin have all been appointed permanent managers after being in caretaker charge. Carlisle, Exeter, MK and Oldham have all appointed new managers.

Which managers do you think will struggle? Who will be the first manager sacked?
Bury: Ryan Lowe
Cambridge United: Joe Dunne
Carlisle United: John Sheridan
Cheltenham Town: Gary Johnson
Colchester United: John McGreal
Crawley Town: Harry Kewell
Crewe Alexandra: David Artell
Exeter City: Matt Taylor
Forest Green Rovers: Mark Cooper
Grimsby Town: Michael Jolley
Lincoln City: Danny Cowley
Macclesfield Town: Vacant
Mansfield Town: David Flitcroft
Milton Keynes: Paul Tisdale
Morecambe: Jim Bentley
Newport County: Mike Flynn
Northampton Town: Dean Austin
Notts County: Kevin Nolan
Oldham Athletic: Frankie Bunn
Port Vale: Neil Aspin
Stevenage: Dino Maamria
Swindon Town: Phil Brown

Thought Mexico were brilliant. Had a game plan. Drew Germany in and hit them on the counter. Defended resolutely as well.
Lozano is amazing. His pace and trickery are something else. He won’t be at PSV much longer.
Germany were very slow on the ball and made the wrong decisions in the final third. Committed too many players forward first half as well, which lead to them conceding. Mexico could have had more if their final ball was better second half.

Have you ever watched a World Cup game in person? If not, what previous World Cup game would you have liked to witness as it happened?
I have only seen a couple of friendly internationals, but I have always dreamed of seeing a World Cup game. If I could go back and watch any game, I would choose the Argentina game where Beckham received his red card.

With so many world cup memories which is your favourite/memorable.?

What a game between Spain and Portugal tonight. So what would you give the game out of 10
-
What game have you enjoyed the most today?
France didn't really show what they are all about. Australia defended very well.
Argentina were let down by Sampaoli's tactic. Messi had to do the job of striker and centre midfielder because the three CM's sat so deep all game. Iceland were brilliant. Similar to Burnley and Notts last season
Peru very good team. Did everything but score. Denmark with a Notts performance in the first leg of the play-off. Very gritty and pulsating game at the same time

I’ve got a few, the worst is my fear of needles, I know exactly when it started, I was bitten by a dog when I was a young boy of 7 or 8, my mother took me to the doctor who patched up the wound and said I needed tetanus injections. In those days kids weren’t treated like they are now, the nurse who did it was a cruel, heartless woman, who stuck three needles in me two in one thigh and one in another, she made no effort to be gentle at all, ever since I have been really frightened of needles and come out in a cold sweat if I have to have an injection.
Another phobia I have is heights I’m not sure when or how this started but anything above a step ladder height gives me the colly wobbles.
Lastly I have a strange fear of walking under scaffolding, I’d rather cross the road than walk under it, I’m worried a workman will drop a hammer or something and it will fall on my head or the scaffolding will suddenly collapse.
What phobias do others have, any strange ones? I heard of someone who had a fear of buttons once, now that is illogical.

Both of our clubs suffered defeats in the playoffs, yet I hope you can find a return back to League One next season lads.
Notts are too big for the 4th division!
Good luck everyone.

Lewin Nyatanga is 29 years old who is currently a free agent. He only stepped into League One a few times so is classed as a well established Championship player in my opinion. Is he worth looking at? He is 6ft 2 and could be ideal along side Brisely. I think for free he is a brilliant player and could be a real leader which we are now lacking in our squad. Let me know your thoughts PON members.
