There's plenty of players who have become icons at Notts or, have enjoyed a successful loan spell etc.

I'm curious if any other PON members keep tracks on former players? Weather they be youths, ex pros, loans etc - I would like to know who and why.

Notts County strength and conditioning coach Mike Edwards is leaving the club.

‘Eddy’ enjoyed two spells with the Magpies, racking up well over 300 appearances and forming an important part of the backroom staff in recent seasons.

And the former Magpies captain, who was part of Steve Cotterill’s side that lifted the League Two title in 2009-10 and went on to enjoy a testimonial year, paid tribute to the supporters for their backing throughout his career at Meadow Lane.

“This place will always have a special place in my heart and the supporters are one of the main reasons for that,” he said.

“I’ve got too many special memories to mention but I have absolutely loved my time at Meadow Lane.

“The time has come for me to move on but I wish the gaffer, the lads and everyone connected with the club all the best for the upcoming season.”


Notts owner and chairman Alan Hardy added: “Mike is a legendary figure in these parts and we are very sorry to see him go.

“He has represented the club with consummate professionalism both as a player and staff member and leaves with everyone’s utmost respect.

“Mike will always be welcome at the Lane and I wish him all the very best in his future endeavours.”

I missed most of this past season, I know the main just but I am keen to get some updates from fans who witnessed the campaign themselves.

If you would, I’d like you give me your quick review of last season from start to finish.

Which players stood out?

How did the three points of the season go down? (Start, middle, ending)

Are you overall pleased?

Also, how can Kevin Nolan improve this upcoming term?

Title says it all

At the minute, for me, this is it.

Prem - Man City

Champ - Middlesbrough

L1 - Portsmouth

L2 - MK

PS: I know it's early 

So who is your favourite England manager.?

Peterborough made their ninth signing yesterday adding Sirike Dembele from Grimsby to their squad. It was for an undisclosed fee but I imagine it to be around 100k. It seems like Peterborough have only been signing League Two players this window, but they have a habit of turning them into gold dust that are quickly swept up by higher clubs. 

The owner also expressed his interest on twitter regarding Jorge Grant and fans have been rumouring a potential swap + cash deal for Jack Marriott. 

Should we have paid more attention to players like Dembele? All I can say is thank the lord we did not pay 100k for Noble. Also does this make the winger Danny Lloyd (Lloyd McGoldrick) available with the arrival of Dembele? 

We all love a good bit of Twitter beef don't we? Well, our very own Alan Hardy has locked horns with none other than legendary England striker, crisp-bothered and pitch-soiler Gary Lineker himself on Twitter.

It all started because of a naughty word said by the BBC MOTD man.

What with all the replies and follow-ons and everything, it will requite some sifting through, but it's all on here... mostly good natured luckily (or unluckily, if you fancied seeing these two having a scrap in the ML parking lot!)

Coming off a season with highs and lows using only one word could you describe last season.?

So this is the table for the World Cup prediction at the close of play on Monday night. 

1- @Chris = 40 points 

1- @liampie = 40 points 

2- @GrannyPie = 30’points 

2- @magpiejue = 30 points 

2- @CliftonMagpie = 20 points

3- @super_ram = 20 points 

3- @Magic magpie = 20 points 

3- @Fan of Big Tone = 20 points 

3- @nottsnutter = 20 points 

4- @The Heff = 10 points

this is latest table of Monday night at 9pm

So it emerged on twitter via the official Exeter twitter Paige that Johnathan Forte has signed with them. Thoughts on this signing guys.?

Alan Hardy was asked about Mason Bennett and he did say that he still could return to thenlane for another loan spell maybe more. “Frank has not spoken to Mason since being the new manager” Alan quoted and that Darren Fletcher was a close friend to Frank Lampard and if anything could happen Alan and Darren would ensure it will.? Thoughts guys 

Just like my request with this past seasons review, I would like PON members to rate all the new recruits from 1-10.

I want to gage what to expect from the eyes of you guys.

Kristian Dennis

Kane Hemmings

Tom Crawford

Will Patching

Have I missed anyone?

I’ve spoken to the club shop and they have confirmed that the new kit will available from Saturday at 9am. With assorted sizes from small to 5xl  the price will be more often than not the same price as last year £41.99. 

Notts County have been posting teaser images of the new kits on their Instagram story function.

Here's what's been put out so far... anyone else who's on Insta feel free to add on throughout the day.

So whether you cook it yourself or go out what your favourite food.?

Tonight England wrap up their Group G campaign at the 2018 World Cup with a clash against Belgium in Kaliningrad.

There was some anxiety beforehand about if England had to get a result to qualify against one of the most star-studded teams of the tournament, but with both sides having won both their group games so far, the pressure is very much off.

Indeed, there is now a very weird scenario in which the losing team will arguably benefit more, as they will end up in the easier of the two knockout routes, and with Group H being so weak, it's not like facing the winner of that group will be an especially taxing prospect.

So let's get your thoughts - how/where are you following the game? Who would you like Gareth Southgate to pick for his starting XI? Should England opt for a weakened team and perhaps even seek not to win (although that's very contentious ground and would lead to the team being pilloried by the press and potentially get in trouble with the FIFA overlords), or should victory always be sought?

Morning all, it’s a bright sunny one so far but looks like thunder storms are forecast for later, I’m hoping to mow the lawn before we get any rain.

After looking after our two boisterous grandsons for a week we are relaxing a bit now, they’ve been very good but it’s still exhausting. A BBQ at our son’s Later should be good so I hope it’s dry for that.

Whats everyone up to today? Anything special planned.

So County have drawn Middlesbrough away in the league cup who’s going then.?

The holders Germany are out the World Cup after loosing 2-0 to korea ???????? come on let’s hear it guys ????????

So we are now in to the last games in the group we have had some shocks on the pitch but has the refereeing been up to par what your thoughts on the quality the style and the way they have viewed it.?

We are having the family round, snacks and popcorn and a beer or two while watching on the telly.

Then a (hopefully) celebratory bbq, Mrs. Big Tone is doing the grandchildren a McGranny meal which consists of hamburger, French fries and small toy all in a box, should be fun. 

I learned recently that a Notts fan and PON member @Dana Shoup had passed away, I don't know much more than that but I'm deeply saddened to learn about this.

I've met him several times, at both home and a few away games and he was a lively passionate fan.

Please share any stories or memories of Dana, he was quite active on both Twitter and Facebook.

Rest in Peace mate.
