I upgraded my laptop earlier, it's now running the latest public release of Windows 10 Home Edition (Version 1703 - OS Build: 15063.296).

Since I have been using the Windows 10, I have always been very impressed with the design. Compared to Windows 8.0/8.1 it's more polished and a respectable bridge between Windows 7 and the previous version.

The latest update has my laptop running much smoother, I can tell the difference very easily. Previous the Windows button would seem to get stuck and never actually respond if I had my laptop on for awhile. It's a bug which has really frustrated me, as it meant I had to use the 'Type here to search' in order to locate the apps or programs I required.

Yet that's been fixed, it actually feels like I have a laptop with 16gb. Rather than one running the minimum requirements. The upgrade offers some new programs, nothing really to write home about but it is looking much smoother as I say. Just a pain how long the upgrade took, it just seemed to go on.

Are you happy with Windows 10? What version do you run? Also let me know if you had issues with the windows button or have upgraded yourself, discuss.

After my grandson's( @super_pie) birthday on Monday it's now his dad and my younger son @Chris's turn and his 30th birthday.Happy birthday Chris,it doesn't seem that long ago that you made your first appearance halfway through Coronation Street.Have a good day.

How do you feel about the clubs target of aiming for the playoffs? I could see Notts aiming higher if the right players was signed. I am unsure about the Lincoln lad but the club needs to send a stronger signal of intent than that of just hoping for playoffs for me.

Quality players and that quote atmosphere around Meadow Lane, Notts could be giving any club a run for their money.

So Jon Goodman is the new Notts County academy coach and Simon Clark is the lead professional development phase coach (story below).

What do you know about these two? Reckon they're a good fit for Notts and can help spur our academy to the next level?

Let PON know!

its been entertaining seeing luton v blackpool and exeter v carlisle.

i think both luton and carlisle can consider themselves to be unlucky not to have made the play off final. the was a hell of a lot of goals scored in both leagues which will probably see the final either the compete opposite or it will be a thriller.

blackpool must be feeling confident going into the final tho. who do you think will win promotion to l1?

Congratulations to Notts County's medical team for being nominated for the League Two Football Medical Association award of Medical & Science Team of the Year 2016-17.

The FMA awards are about acknowledging medical teams at football clubs who have excelled in injury prevention, treatment and management and helped given their players the extra edge on the field.

Notts are up against Luton and Plymouth in this year's awards, which take place at the Radisson Blu East Midlands Hotel next Saturday (click here for more information).

So well done Notts, and let's hope "home advantage" at the awards serves us well! YOU PIES!

Hi all, 

Hope the mods are okay with me posting this here (if not, please move it to where it should be...) 

My name is Martin and I work for Yeovil Town Football Club along with my twin sons aged 16. Last month, we visited all 92 Premier & Nationwide League grounds collecting signed memorabilia to auction off upon our return. Had some fantastic times during the two weeks we were away, memories to last a lifetime. Watched twelve matches, met loads of ex-Yeovil players and collected about fifty items for the two charities - the Sir Bobby Robson Foundation and the Adam Stansfield Foundation. If you want to read more, our website is at http://www.4-2-3-1.org

We have a signed County away shirt available to bid on, courtesy of the club. The shirt is now on eBay until 9.15pm on Sunday evening (21st May) and with your (well deserved) safety now confirmed, we hope it will make a decent amount so please feel free to bid.

Finally, many congratulations on achieving safety, thought you were goners at one point. Had no particular teams I DID want to go down really but County came good with this, and let us in pitchside for a picture too, so I wish you well for a better season next year. 

do you have a favourite that notts have made which comes from the non league? the arrival of terry hawkridge has me thinking.

we signed andre boucaud from a non league club right? i think he would be mine.

Gary Lineker, legendary Leicester City / Tottenham Hotspur / England striker, Match of the Day commentator, lover of thinly sliced fried potatoes and opinionated Twittererer, has spoken of a game he took part in against Notts County as one of his six most memorable games of all time.

Over to FourFourTwo magazine (link here):

April 24, 1979: Notts County 0-1 Leicester

My debut for Leicester was pretty hopeless; I scored my first goal about seven games into my career on a cold, dark night at Meadow Lane.

Leicester were near the bottom of the old Second Division, but I managed to get on the end of a Mick Duffy cross to get us a win.

I’d had no trouble scoring goals before then but I was worried I’d be found out in the first team, so it was a relief to prove I could do it. Everything else followed from that night.

Was anyone at the game? What did you think about this young whippersnapper called Gary Lineker at the time?

Well it's official, Notts have signed Terry Hawkridge as previously discussed here.

He arrives after his contract ran out with his former club Lincoln, and is our first summer signing having penned a two year deal. You can read the full story below - be sure to have your say on the signing.

Terry Hawkridge speaks to Magpie Player HD after joining the Magpies from Lincoln City.

Terry Hawkridge's first interview

Why not subscribe to PrideofNottinghamTV?

There has been much speculation about the signing of Lincoln City winger Terry Hawkridge by Notts County.

"He's just a non-league player", some have said. "Why have they let him go? Can't be much good then", others have spat.

Newspaper Lincolnshire Live has explained how fans of the Imps were left equally baffled by the move, but they've deconstructed his reasoning for it.

"Taking a two-year deal on increased terms over a one-year isn't greedy, it's common sense. Football is his job and he must put himself and his family first.

"And he probably feels he'll get more first-team football with Notts next season having been in and out of the side this term.

"You could ask why anyone would want to leave Sincil Bank following such a momentous season, spearheaded by one of the most talked about management teams in the country.

"I and most City fans would argue that Lincoln have more going for them than the Magpies (sorry, what? -JJ), but then we're looking at the situation through red and white coloured spectacles.

"With a new chairman in Alan Hardy and a bright young manager in Kevin Nolan, Notts fans have reasons to be optimistic too following a chaotic spell which saw a revolving door of managers.

"Following a strong end to last season under Nolan, I would expect County to be battling for the play-offs next season, along with the Imps (hahaha -JJ)."

I'm having a lot of connectivity issues with Virgin Media as of late, nothing all that long term but its going up and down like a yoyo (which can be frustrating). As most know, I'm very much into my websites and not being able to access them or check certain things really becomes annoying. However, lengthy downtime is the worst.

Power cuts I enjoy, downtime of the internet I start pulling my hair out.

Luckily these days we can tether our mobile data, along with wireless internet powered by a device which stores the power and can connect to a 3g/4g signal (these are a life saver for those who really require internet access).

My question is how do you cope without the internet? Would you miss it? How long can you go without accessing it? Discuss...

Has anyone seen it (or went)? Some very interesting points made.

It's on  magpie player now. 

It seems Notts are being linked with Lincoln City winger Terry Hawkridge, he's Nottingham born and has enjoyed spells with Carlton Town, Hucknall Town and Mansfield Town before establishing himself with the Imps.

What do you make of this rumour? Do you think Terry would fit in at Notts? Let us know.

Today is exactly 50 years since Brian Clough and Peter Taylor signed for my club Derby County,it is also my grandson  @super_pie's 11th birthday.Happy birthday Jake,hope you have a great day.

Matt Tootle has gone on record to say that he wants to continue playing at right-back for Notts.

He told the Nottingham Post: "Quietly I think I had a good season, even though I played everywhere under Shez (Sheridan).

"I couldn't really gain any consistency and I kept telling everyone I needed to be right-back.

"I thought my best game was at home to Peterborough and then the game after I was right wing.

"Once I've got right-back people have seen that I got consistency and I will only get better and better.

"As long as I am fit, and doing well, I will be first choice. I've just got to continue where I left off."

Do you agree with him? Should he carry on at right-back? Or do you think he should be deployed elsewhere?

Some interesting comments from Accrington Stanley chairman Andy Holt about the EFL Trophy vote, where he talks of a "master and servant" relationship between the Premier League and the EFL.

Striker Matt Green has been released by Mansfield Town boss Steve Evans.

The 30-year-old scored 13 goals this season and 16 the season before, but he's now a free agent.

Reckon he'd be a good fit for Notts?

(The other players released by the Stags are Yoann Arquin, James Baxendale, Lee Collins, Ashley Hemmings, Kevan Hurst, Pat Hoban, Brian Jensen, Jamie McGuire, Scott Shearer and Corbin Shires.)

Notts have voted to keep the PL academies in it but the academies have to play away from home each match and higher prize money. 

£20,000 per win isn't a bad amount. 

AH has had a mixed reaction to this decision mainly negative after stating it was a financial and competitive decision. The trophy has been dying for years and I thought the boycott was the final nail in the coffin but it still has legs.. 

On paper it is a trophy we could win, a trip to Wembley and a day to remember. And extra income to knock down the £1.5m loss a year.

But are we selling our soul?
