he seems a development sort of player, so maybe karl henry could still be on the cards?
romario is 20 years old, hes been with leeds but has yet to make his debut for any club professionally. he was born bissau, guinea-bissau. what do you think about this?
So less than 24 hours away from match day as we come home to face Stevenage at the Lane is this the game where we start the turn around the come back.?

Here are my player ratings for today's game based on /10.
Fitzsimmons 3/10 - Made some saves that were straight at him but apart from that distribution was poor, decision making was woeful and I think he is making Mark Crossley look like a mug. Crossley was getting so frustrated on the touchline today so I assume he's not doing as he's told.
Turley - 6/10 - Solid debut. Not as pacey as Tootle but he does well in the air and I think provides perfect competition. Well Done that lad.
Ward - 5/10 - Average but didn't attack any set pieces.
Brisely - 5/10 - Improved massively without Duffy. Him and Ward do well together. Would have given him a higher score but we conceded 3 and the defence have to be held accountable for part of that.
Evina - 7/10 - Brilliant debut. Good first touch, good runs and can work really well with Boldewjin. Much better replacement than Dan Jones.
Boldewjin - 8/10 - Fantastic goal along with some really good runs and effort today. He loves cutting in and with his quick feet defenders just can't do anything about it. Starting to show his price tag and live up to his hype.
Milsom - 6/10 - Doing his job as a ball winning midfielder, so much better than Hewitt.
Husin - 7/10 - Played really well and chased the ball and won it back if he lost it. Surprised at first he was chosen over Vaughan but filled in perfectly. Delivery on corners is still poor but that can be worked on.
Alessandra - 9/10 (MOTM) - Best performance in a Notts shirt by this man today. Quality. It would have been 10 if he had gotten a goal. Provided some clear cut chances and an assist with an amazing ball to Boldewjin for his goal. Best player on the pitch today, his work rate was second to none.
Stead - 7/10 - Played well holding the ball up, should have put a chance early on in the second half away but other than that played brilliantly.
Hemmings - 8/10 - Again effort was faultless. Deserved his goal and he loved celebrating it in front of the KOP. Really chuffed with him and think him and Stead work well together. I am left wondering if he even wants to play with Dennis. Pat on the back needed for Kane today.
No subs really made an impact so 5/10 for each (Tootle and Thomas). Overall I think we deserved the 3pts but yet again we are sat here scratching our heads of why a keeper was not brought in the window. Fitz's confidence is shot and I would rather have Collin back to be totally honest with you. Positioning is poor and distribution is woeful. But ... we are all human and I do feel sorry for him as I know he cares and wants to do well, I can only think there is problems off the field which he needs to sort out. I think for his own sanity though he needs to have a 1-1 meeting with Kewell to discuss his plans and future at this football club as he is just not cut out for league football.

Model professional, I am sure he knows there's more than a defensive issue but I feel he knows confidence is a big thing throughout the squad.
I think Stead looks better in the team this season with better players around him, he's also thrived under the competition of Dennis and Hemmings replacing him.
Jon's won fans over again, hope he can remain in form. He seems to be in the zone and one of our best players right now.
Right now defence is a issue tootle and Duffy injured Jones is suspended but we have signed a couple of defenders but they need a bit of time to adjust.
Whats your thoughts guys ?

Harry Kewell needs to be more on his toes when shouting instructions, the interview is about what you can expect. I just hope he's given the players some advice which they can put into use.
I most understand where he's coming from, however I don't think a sane person can say we have played well under him.
45 minutes against Grimsby isn't enough.
Exeter was a shambles, we are lucky we wasn't punished by more goals and force Fitzsimons deserves praise for some of the saves. However, I still feel he should have done better with some of the goals he conceded. His awareness and positioning seems very poor.
Better interview for sure, Kewell seems pleased and I'm optimistic about the talk of hard work.
13th September (today) is the official release date of the demo there has been issues with it but have all been sorted. Any one going to download it.?

I agree everything mentioned by @Chris.
Scoring goals isn't easy for Notts but we look goo, conceding them is the complete opposite and the question must be why the defence still hasn't made that much of a difference despite them working hard? I think teams know how to punish us and I don't the club realise how easy it is right now.
I do feel things could improve and winning ways return, but there is still work to be done.
If we can narrow down the chances the opposition get, things may improve all round but the best way would be to control the game. I felt at times Notts did this well but certain players rushed the play and it ended abruptly. Jon Stead started numerous promising attacks, only for Lewis Alessandra or Noor Husin to kill off the move.
Promising signs I feel.
I don't understand how people can call criticism abuse? There are some on social media sites who get personal or borderline abusive but as a paying fan or supporter it gives us the right to say our opinion. Fitzsimons this season has shown us why he was plucked out of the Non League, he should be replaced.
Other than that the game was positive, I felt Notts played well but errors at the back cost the club three points again.
That's disappointing but I accept it.
https://www.nottscountyfc.co.uk/news/2018/september/evina-and-turley-sign/
Well here we go ladies and gentlemen, It looks like business is up this year at Meadow Lane. Evina looks really good as a quick pacey left back which will suit Hemmings and Dennis's style of play a lot more. Turley looks strong but wasn't who I was hoping for in Anton Ferdinand unfortunately. I feel as if these were panic buys to show the fans that Hardy has seen that there is problems in defence. However this provides lots of competition at the back now and is exactly what we needed. Bird is out of the picture I think which should mean he has to go out on loan in January.
Let me know your thoughts down below.

I have been keeping an eye out for your scores, after missing out on the playoff final and having watched your recruitment. I felt dead certain that you guys would be pushing for promotion, you have a lot of quality players and seemed to have strengthened wisely. I don't claim to know everything about your club but I have a soft spot for Notts, and It's hard to understand what's going wrong.
A win Saturday could make the world of a difference and it could put you looking healthier against teams like Morecambe, Grimsby and Northampton.
From the outside it would seem you have altered the balance of your squad quite dramatically and so far things haven't clicked on the pitch. It's important for the players to enjoy playing and conceding goals achieves the complete opposite. I wish you all well, Notts deserves to be playing much higher than League Two for sure. Meadow Lane is a fantastic away day and I am sure many other clubs supporters would wish you the same.
Last thing to note, having seen your highlights. I can understand why Palace allowed your keeper to move on and why he never played for Bolton. He looks lost and greatly down on his luck. Sign a keeper and Elliot Ward will sort you out.
Good luck Magpie fans,
nightOWL.

There's signs that the team can build on from here, but cutting Fitzsimons slack only comes from people who realise the club won't sign a new keeper and this isn't a solution for a forward thinking club.
Something to build on, I would have taken a point at the start so i guess I can't complain. Onward and upwards.
i feel the exact same way, its good to see the creativity and defence improve from the previous games.
i do feel that its a worry if we dont score tho.
If you have a spare 10 minutes this is absolutely worth the watch with match highlights from Leicester's relegation battle to being crowned Premier League Champions despite being 5000/1 to win the League and favourites to go down. Unbelievable story. Lets hope Notts have the same desire to turn this around ... it starts tomorrow, COYP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good morning, it’s a bit chilly here but the sun is up. A big thank you to @samwatto2008 for starting the daily chat thread these last couple of days, by the way it doesn’t have to be a team member who starts the thread, if you’re up early and want to start it off just put the title and the date and it’ll start the ball rolling with everyone telling us about their day.
Well we’re in Taunton at a big meet up with other campervan friends, the meet is being hosted by a Motorhome dealer and tonight it’s a hog roast and free beer, hopefully I’ll be celebrating a Notts win, obviously I can’t get to the match so if you’re going give them a cheer from me. YOUPIES!
What’s everyone else up to?
I thought it would be a good idea to start a game whereby we asked members of PON a question.
If you are asked something, please do reply and pass the invisible microphone onto the next member that you wish to ask a question. I'll start with @menzinho.
Would you please tell me the decision behind your username on PON, why did you go for the former Brazilian international Menzinho?

Sorry folks this is extremely late, however I have only just woke up after having a long one on nights yesterday. Wasn't in until 6am so asleep for sort of 6:30am. Bit of a quiet one from me today again however this is my last night shift of the week so will be looking forward to a few days off.
Think I am going to get my haircut at a place called Easy Barber in Sutton-in-Ashfield, it's nice and cheap and the staff do a good job however they are all self employed and I like supporting local business.
Then I will probably go to ASDA to get some bits for tea, think were having some chicken pakoras with onion bhajis with salad. So will get some bits for that and then gym later with my mate. Then it will be all chilling out up until work. Unfortunately no Friday feeling from me, as for the rest of you let me know how you're getting on this Friday? Early finishes?
Think of two questions, leave one open for anyone to answer but once it is move onto another question. You have to think of two scenarios where each option has to be said which is best.
With the second put it to a PON member of your choice.
Open question: Who's better in your opinion Elvis or Johnny Cash?
@ARLukomski: Which is better Sky Sports or BT Sports?
