So Fifa 19 is out and I’m sure we have got our ultimate team if you play it.
My question is Who's in your ultimate team what league etc. ?
Fitz - 9 - Kept us in the game.
Turley - 4 - Did OK in an unusual position
Ward - 2 - Give your head a shake
Brisley - 4 - OK
Evina - 0 - Pathetic. Headless chicken defensively and can't pass going forwards. Useless.
Enzo - 6 - Only one that looked like he could create something.
Milsom - 2 - Bambi on ice performance again. Almost lost it in dangerous areas and did a couple of times. Negative/**** passing. Accident waiting to happen.
Hewitt - 3 - Crap
Thomas - 3 - Crap
Alessandra - 3 - Crap
Dennis - 1 - ****.
Kewell - 0 - What the **** was that? Embarrassing and tactically woeful.
Oldham's finishing - 10 - As with Port Vale, could and probably should have hammered us.

So tonight Arsenal needed just one point to guarantee qualification to the round of 32 in the Europa league which was achieved but it came at a cost.
Arsenal manager Emery says that Welbeck has suffered a ankle break.
Just 25 minutes In to the game Welbeck tried to connect with a cross but landed awkwardly and start straight away riving in pain.
He was given gas and air on the pitch to help with the pain he left on a stretcher with his right leg in a brace team mates and sporting captain Nani a former team mate of Welbeck didn’t leave Welbecks side during his treatment.
He was taken to hospital for further treatment the type of break and how long he is out for may not be know for a while.
I wish him all the best at times like this the shirt they wear is forgotten and you can’t help but see them as a person a human.

Lowest shot save percentage in the Bundesliga at present, only 11 out of 22 stopped. 50% is very poor. Most keepers are in the 60’s, Yann Sommer is on 75% this season, one reason Gladbach are second.

So a few days ago I read that Rooney will come out of retirement to play against the USA in a friendly at Wembley.
The match has been called a friendly but it’s now being seen has Rooney's international send off.
England Captain Harry Kane in a interview went off script by saying that Rooney will be the captain and he would only be too happy for Rooney to lead the team out.
The idea is thought to be that of manager Gareth Southgate but the FA insist that Rooney will not lead out this team he will play only a cameo role against the USA.
Southgate insists that Rooney will not retain the number 10 shirt.
Kane revealed that he, Southgate and a few other senior players wanted to do something to mark Rooneys milestone.
So it’s unclear at the minute as to the role of Rooney against the USA but it’s has to be said that Kane has handled it like a captain and a true professional, showing nothing but respect.

Good morning everyone, it’s a brighter start than yesterday thankfully but a bit cooler.
I’ve not had a good night my hips have been aching, keeping me awake and I’ve felt a bit under the weather for a few days now but I really want to go for a run this morning so I’m going to give it a try and see how I get on.
Later we are picking up our young grandsons from school while their mum and dad go to a meeting, it’ll be good to see them, our youngest got dressed up as a knight for medieval day at school yesterday he looked brilliant our son sent us a picture, it’s amazing what you can do with an old pillow case and some cardboard.
Have a great day all.
So the question is how do you like your eggs.?

So it’s no secret that Ross Fitzsimmons since taking from Adam Collins as county’s number one has stuttered and slipped and struggled to regain the form that impressed last season during Collins injury till he was sent off for kicking a player and gave away a penalty.
But recently he has been showing some form im not going to jump on the bandwagon I’ve voiced my opinion and others have to about his poor start positioning etc.
But tonight in a match that was mediocre at best Ross stepped up kept Notts in the tie and earned us a point that may just us out the relegation zone.
He made some close and low shot saves and tipped a effort over the bar among the saves he made tonight.
He was organised bossing the defence and shown something I’ve not seen from him this season also he was releasing the ball a lot faster and along the ground rather than the direct approach.
What ever it was it earned him the man of the match which i said to @Chris about the 65th minute though @Christhought Alexandra was the choice for him.
Even after it was announced he didn’t smile but he did acknowledge the crowd which is a way forward.
I hope he uses this to boost his confidence because tonight he earned it and shown he could be number one.

So tonight was not the greatest game we have played. We did get a draw and picked up a point, our first in three games.
But My question is not to cause arguments or things like that just your opinion.
How long does Harry Kewell have left before changes need to be made management wise.

So I’ve been working a healthy kebab crossed with a curry As I’m trying to loose some weight I thought it may help but old habits die hard unfortunately. ????????
so I’ve created a mild to medium curry paste and sourced a cheap peice of steak Or beef.
So the idea is to make the paste spread it on the steak over night griddle the steak to how you like let it rest.
Put salad ect cabbbage you know the stuff to make it a proper kebab.
then put the meat in the nan bread don’t loose the juice add some mint yougut homemade on top round it and and then juice to dip the nan bread with the curry taste as well.
My question would any one give it a go or have it in favour of a kebab that you get from the chippy or any where else.
Things I’m still trying for my business so this market research shall we say.
Cheers guys and girls

Good morning it’s a mild, cloudy and slightly misty start here but at least it’s dry.
Remember, remember the 5th November, I wonder how many kids know the reason for fireworks this time of year or some adults for that matter.
For those that don’t know it is to remember when a chap called Guy Fawkes tried to blow up the Houses of Parliament with gunpowder and was called the gunpowder plot, he was caught and met a particularly grisly death, look it up if you want to know more.
When I was a lad we used to make an effigy of Guy Fawkes in the weeks and days before bonfire night and put it on our home made wooden trolley (which had pram wheels) and take it to a prominent place, in my case the shops which were on Meadow Lane or on match days outside the ground and ask for a “penny for the guy”, we used to make quite a bit of money especially when Notts had won, the money would be spent on sweets and fireworks, Penny bangers and jumping jacks were favourites both probably banned now. A penny banger was literally a small tube filled with gunpowder with a fuse which cost a penny, when lit it made a loud bang, we used to throw them about and at each other,
, a jumping jack was a firework shaped a bit like a concertina which we put on the ground and lit and it jumped about whilst banging.
On the actual night of November the 5th we would put the guy on a communal bonfire which was constructed on waste ground using old sofas, chairs, wood, cardboard boxes etc. Then the bonfire was set alight and people let their fireworks off and roasted potatoes on the bonfire.
Here endeth the history lesson. Today I’ve got computer work to do, a big shop at Lidl and a bit of a de clutter in the loft to take some stuff to the charity shops.
Have a great day folks.
I have about had it with this team, manager, owner and backroom staff. After all the stories I have heard about why certain people, players and staff left just prior to the sacking of KN and just after it is all coming together and making sense now. I personally feel like the majority of this was planned and Alan Hardy has gotten too greedy.
I don't care what anyone says about the word 'hope'. We are going to finish mid table at best this year but from the display we put on against Oldham we deserve to go down. I have seen about 3 positive performances this season so far and the rest has been utter garbage.
People have been saying 'Why are you moaning? This is what it's like supporting Notts' well ... it shouldn't be like that, things have happened this year that has been out of fans control that makes us look like an absolute laughing stock. I didn't attend the Oldham game in a sort of personal protest but my Dad insisted on buying it on IFollow but I didn't pay so just thought I would sit down and watch it with him. After what I saw I can't believe what I saw.
WE HAVE A 100K STRIKER being played up top on his own playing hoof ball nd hoping he gets on the end of a few crap balls.
Something has to change quick and we payed a sum for those two sorry excuses for coaches on the sidelines. Well KN wasn't given time at the start of the season so neither should HK. If November doesn't change I will be calling for his sacking. Possibly the worst managerial appointment in recent times for Notts' We had the chance to get someone like Bowyer, Appleton, Ferguson and we fluffed it. The team we have is one of the best in the league so I can't believe he's benching 4 CB's a game and claiming 'It's to combat the opposition's strengths' ... Is it balls. It's because he can't admit to the media he's lost half of his dressing room already the wet wipe. (Jones, Bird, Vaughan, Kellett, Husin, Patching, Crawford) All players who should be on the bench and can make an impact instead the bench is full of kids because no one wants to play for him.
Let me know what you think but I am really angry about how everything is run at the club. Most of the problems are from higher up in the board room etc. And something has to change and drastic otherwise we won't be in the football league next year.

So this week is remberance Sunday, to mark the anniversary of the end of World War One.
We wear poppies to mark the occasion and show respect to those who lost their life and those who fought bravely.
Sone players have refused to wear a poppy, Matic from United, I’m ashsmed to say, and Stokes james McClean the other.
Mclean came under fire from Middlesbrough fans at the weekend for refusal.
What’s your thoughts guys and girls on this.?
Good morning, although it’s not actually very good weather wise, it’s raining out there but it’s pretty mild.
i wanted to go for a run this morning but I don’t “do” rain so that’s not going to happen. Mrs Big Tone is going for a coffee morning with her mates so I’m home alone this morning, I’ll do a bit of housework and I’ve got some computer work to do so that’ll keep me busy.
Its home made mousakka for tea, it’s ages since we’ve had that so I’m looking forward to it.
I noticed in yesterday’s daily thread we had two people reading it who don’t normally read it but they didn’t contribute so please if you read this why not join in and tell us about your day or what’s on your mind.
I hope everyone has a good day and try to stay cheerful in spite of last nights result after all to only football.
Morning all, a cloudy, mild start here.
Its match night tonight and personally I can’t wait to get back down the lane, no grandkids as it’s too late for them being a school night so I’ve booked a seat near the half way line which is my preferred view point rather than behind the goal where I sit with grandchildren in the family stand.
In other news I see the Spice Girls are making a comeback minus posh spice (Victoria Beckham) are we bothered?
More news some stupid people have posted a rather sick video of a bonfire with a model of the Grenfell tower block burning on the fire with people standing around laughing and joking, how sick can you get?
We didn’t get our @GrannyPie update yesterday, hows she doing @super_ram?
Have a great day everyone.
