For the most part of the 2018/19 season Kristian Dennis has looked to be unfit or struggling to get his fitness up, I always felt that he needed game time and carefully managing as we know he's a goalscorer.

Harry Kewell threw him in into the squad with the absence of Jon Stead and Kane Hemmings.

He's done well and has reaped the rewards, a striker thrives on confidence and he seems to be playing with a level of form right now. I think he will be a massive player for us under Neal Ardley. I just hope Stead, Hemmings and Alessandra can return to the starting 11 soon.

What difference has KD made in your eyes? Is he in form right now?

I noticed that one of the newly appointed SLO's had updated a message on PON, I am keen to see what is going on but I don't use social media all that much. Is there any chance that one of the admins can ask the SLO's to post updates on PON?

regardless of who is actually appointed, will you get behind the next manager?

the past games means nothing when building from a new start, judging the players by previous mistakes means that we will only burden and judge them at a time all should be given a clean slate. if we want to survive and sort this hell of a season out, i dont think moaning or abusing the players will help.

Who was your Man of the Match for Notts County's League Two game away at Morecambe?

i have read that martin allen is supposedly now interested in coming back, i just wondered if anyone would welcome an ex manager? i know some on social media are asking for charlie mcparland to be given a chance also.

plus kevin nolan is linked which seems to be a no for many of the pon community.

Vote for who you think has been Notts best player so far. I know it's difficult since we have been utter horse this season 

Guys can you join me in welcoming our new member @peg248 to Pon 

Absolutely fuming. How can this club get so much wrong

I was here at this game but watching this right now makes me feel sad, look how much the fans got behind the players and how mental everyone went in the KOP when we scored. As @ARLukomski keeps pointing out ... Hard work is all we ask for and look what it can pay off sometimes just like it did here with a replay at Eastlands.                    

RE to my tweet last night, I seriously don't think we are too far away from becoming AFC Notts County.

IF and it's a big IF Alan Hardy was to walk this season we would be in some serious trouble regarding ownership and financial structure. If he walked then I can only see us dropping into the National League.

But is this too negative? Can a big club like Notts drop into the National League? With money spent is it even possible?

For all of his faults we need Alan Hardy right now I noticed @ivansneck post about how he wants him out. But truth be told, I don't think we can afford to have him out because if he was to throw in the towel I think not only would that be our league existence gone but also our club existence.

I think we are in more trouble than people think. Can only imagine what Alan's paying in wages a month. Must be a frightening thought but something to share opinions on. 

Who has been diabolical so far. I narrowed it down to these six

Hello @Geoffrey Newbold,

I had a friend at school called Adam Newbold, it would be amusing if you was related - the world certainly seems small at times. I hope you enjoy being a part of our Notts County community. So, welcome from me.  

Welcome to PON @NottsRWee,

How are you? Care to tell us a little bit about yourself such as how long you have supported the club? Well I hope you enjoy being a part of our Notts County community.

There has been a change around of favourites of managers since I last post about them. Martin Allen currently favourite with Appleton and Hurst now coming up the rear. Hurst's odds were slashed last night from 10/1 to 7/2 this morning which is 3.5/1. This is very interesting and makes me wonder if having a rejection from Shrewsbury means he is now seeking work at Notts County as AFC Wimbledon look to have their appointment set in stone.

Let us know what you think folks. I would be very pleased with either Appleton, Hurst or Allen. Nolan looks to be out of the picture now but at 4/1 can't be ruled out. 

i was thinking that pon needed to have a good chat based discussion, so i have been thinking about what i might be able to post. it came to me we never really talk about out interests outside of football.

my question is what other interests do you have outside of the beautiful game?
