The best of the action from Vale Park as Notts extended their unbeaten run to five games in all competitions.

So this morning, a fan tweeted to Alan Hardy saying ticket prices to watch the noisy neighbours over the Trent are cheaper than Notts County this month.

Personally, it doesn't bother me. Aside from the fact I wouldn't watch them over the river if the tickets were 20p, £22 has been pretty much the norm now for quite a few years. Hardy's doing promotions and deals now and then, and generally, the whole setup of the club now is such that Notts fans are happy to pay to see good, honest, hard-working football (compared to a year or so ago where you'd be paying £22 to watch Notts lost 4-0 in a toxic atmosphere). But at the same time, it doesn't do anything for the neutrals or the undecided, who can view the matchday experience from a customer point of view.

What do you think?

So this is it - Christmas day for many football fans (mostly the neutrals), Judgement Day for some (*cough* Arsenal *cough*), and Thursday for others (mainly those in the lower leagues).

Transfer Deadline Day (summer 2017) is upon us.

It's been a busy window for Notts County, but in terms of final-minute business, it's unlikely that there will be much. Leigh Curtis predicts the possibility of maybe one striker coming in, a Championship player who's not Tyler Walker or George Hirst.

Expecting quiet deadline day at Notts. Striker is a possibility. Looking at one from Championship. Not Walker or Hirst.

Over to you - who would you like to see come in? Do you expect some surprises to be sprung? Might there be any outgoings?

Who was your man of the match for Notts County at Port Vale?

As we all know, Notts County are known as the Magpies - often shortened to Pies. Which has led to a number of associations with the well-loved pastry product (such as Alan Hardy offering free "pies for Pies" on a first-come first-served basis).

However, the pie has also claimed a new role in Nottingham football folklore - making Nottingham Forest fans look like utter t**ts!

As it's 29 years since Notts County claimed their biggest ever win over Mansfield Town (5-0 at Meadow Lane in the League Cup), I thought I'd open up a thread as to the best Nottinghamshire derby you remember.

Were you there on 30 August 1988 for the big win, or if not, what is the best one that you recall seeing/hearing/following?

Based on a mean of 5

Collin 5.5  Couldn't do much with the goals, but was outshone by Accrington's keeper,Chapman,  who produced 3 magnificent saves. Having said that Collin, at least blocked what looked like an Accrington certain winner in injury time. The first half saw Collin well protected and had little to do. One poor punched clearance in the second.

Tootle 5.5 Still puzzled over the sending off. It did seem a case of the referee evening up numbers. Believe sending off was for 2 yellow cards

Duffy 5.5 Looking more of an offensive threat from Dan Jones's dead ball delivery ( especially Chapman bringing off a good save)...but marked down a mark or two for a clear cut foul that should have yielded a penalty for Accrington in the second half

Brisley 5 An OK centre half at this level, but look at perhaps what we could have got when compared to Richards Everton  Centre Half performance from Accrington

Jones 6 Giving power on the left when going forward.. Lots of positives but was badly caught out when trying to protect the ball close to his by line.

Hewitt 6 Beginning to see why Nolan is using him. All energy and covering ground but on the flip side, doesnt possess the hope of a killer pass...but maybe that's a dishonour as front 2 have distinct lack of pace.

Yates 5 Just have a feeling he needs to step up more and put his foot down to influence the game. Nolan's long ball tactics doesnt help

Grant 8 Class Class class for that goal... Really need to work harder as a team to bring him into goal scoring positions. Denied another goal with a fine save from Chapman

Hawkridge 7 Absolute dynamo in terms of effort and a great break on the left to deliver the pass for the second

Stead 4.5 Yes, won the penalty and scored from it...just... Was well marshalled by Accrington's defence, who were able to pick off his lack of control.

Shola 5 Full marks to Richards Everton for having Shola in his pocket. Minus marks for lack of concentration that allowed Accrington's player Hughes to score

A nondescript first half gave way to an exiting second. Questions remain of Nolan's thinking as to why Forte didn't start the game... Shola and Stead are too leaden footed to work effectively as a pair. Hewitt's injury in injury time should have been subbed immediately... Maybe easy to say in hindsight.. Overall, agreed Accrington deserved the draw, they played some good football whereas we have good players that dont really benefit from the longer ball game.

So John Coleman, the Accrington Stanley manager, has had a right old moan about Notts County, describing the changing rooms as "a corridor", the penalty awarded to the Magpies as "soft", not awarding the visitors "two stonewall penalties" of their own... he's not a happy man!

Simple enough - who have been your top 3 players for Notts County this month and why?

It's been completely revamped and now it definitely has a personality of its own, compared to the "other stand" it used to be in the past.

Have a look for yourself - what do you think?

Who is the best player you have seen play on the pitch at Meadow Lane? Opposition counts too. For me being a young'ish fan it has to be Patrick Vieira against Manchester City in our cup tie. Who is yours?

What is some people's problem with Alan Hardy? Some of the abuse he's getting abit oit of hand now, I've got to question where some Notts fans respect is.. He saved us last season, brought some stability to Notts.

If I owned Notts and got this abuse I'd sell the club to the first buyer, its no wonder the trews got fed up.

Now don't get me wrong I'm not Alan Hardy's biggest fan, his decision making has had 1 or 2 flaws, discussing transfers on twitter not a good idea.. The way he speaks down to fans who don't agree with him is abit out of order, promises he can't fulfill was always going to end in fans getting angry.. 

Where do you stand on Mr Hardy?

Hi all,

I'm doing a study on certain aspects of the match day experience at EFL & PL clubs, and would much appreciate it if any of you could take 3-4 minutes to complete the following survey:

Many thanks

I found this fascinating, I already knew a fair bit but this documentary goes quite in-depth. Many fans seem to forget that Accrington Stanley was one of the first clubs to play football, yet this highlights their struggles and ambition to grow further.

Well worth the watch.

It looks like Kevin Nolan has his preferred players which every manager does, but am I the only one who believe that half of the squad cannot perform due to fitness for a full 90 minutes? I honestly feel there should be more squad rotation.

Who was your man of the match for Notts County against Accrington Stanley?
