Notts County academy star Luther Wildin is making a bit of a name for himself on the international stage as well as at Meadow Lane.

He scored a corker for Antigua & Barbuda's Under-20 side in their 4-1 defeat against Honduras in the CONCACAF Under-20s Cup.

Admittedly their defence doesn't really seem to be trying, but kudos to the 20-year-old for persevering through them and for the good finish.

This clown is reffing us again on Saturday. 

How the league can still use him is beyond me, he thinks you're there to watch him.

I wouldn't be surprised if the chanting started whilst he was doing his warm-up.

There's a couple interesting comments about us “We were training in parks and you would see people walking up with their dogs." 

It must be frustrating/embarrassing as a professional footballer to be training in parks with with people walking dogs and all of that. That said he very rarely did anything professional on the pitch so maybe he deserved to be training on a park. 

It's easy to understand(not saying it was right) why some of the players wasn't playing with everything they had this season, training on parks, not being paid on time or at all very easy to see why some got disheartened. At least Mr Hardy has changed all of that mentality!

Has anybody noticed how tough our run in is? We've still got to play: Plymouth, Donny, Luton, Carlisle away and Pompey, Blackpool at home! That said we do seem to do "better" when playing the bigger sides of this league..

Collin 5 still giving a Seamus impersonation of lack of confidence and communication. 
Clackstone 5.5 much improved second half after an indifferent first. A misplaced pass upfield led to a serious Orient attack, fortunately their eventual cross lacked the quality to punish us
Hewitt 5.5 a much improved Hewitt under Nolan but positioning still questionable and concentration lapse allowed their first unchallenged
Duffy 5 again much improved under Nolan, but his failure to win his header allowed Orient their first
Bola 8 the end of Dicko. Sublime pass for Stead's winner
Yeates 6 uses ball well but faded second half
O'Connor 5.5 another stupid booking.
Milsom 6.5 outshined his midfield partner. Got stuck in
Grant 6 great reading of the ball for the first. We needed a goal scoring midfielder!
Stead 8 back to the Stead of old. Read the game well and works well with Ameobi
Ameobi 7 lack of pace but won the majority of headers and held up the ball so so well.

Received the latest edition of WSC (the one with Lincoln and Sutton on the cover) as was startled to find a FOUR-page feature on our home match against Mansfield. The article is written by F*rest fan Al Needham and also touches on the statue and the takeover. It's a well-written and (mostly) sensitive piece, recommended reading.

As we all know, the future of Notts County Ladies is still uncertain while the winding-up order is still at the club, but the Lady Pies today announced the signing of Louise Quinn, a Republic of Ireland international with 51 caps and former captain of Swedish side Eskilstuna United. Quite an illustrious signing, so reading between the lines, should we assume that things are more or less going to be alright with the Lady Pies?

So who was your man of the match for Notts County in Tuesday's crazy 2-2 draw with Exeter City?

Collin 6 - some good saves, a bit unfair to expect him to hold the shot for their second.
Hewitt 5.5 - some good challenges, but left gaps at right back and positionally slack in the centre
Audel 5.5 - loses a mark for a dreadful blunder to gift them the lead.
Duffy 7* - fairly sound defensively and caused them loads of problems when pushed forward late on.
Bola 6 - slightly hesitant at times but mostly competent.
Milsom 5.5 - struggled to get into the game a bit.
O'Connor 6.5 - not everything worked, but the pick of the midfield.
Yeats 5.5 - like Milsom, struggeld to get involved. Decent corners again.
Thompson 6 - some bright spells but seemed to fade as the game went on.
Smith 4.5 - a strange selection from Nolan, and one that failed miserably.
Stead 5 - looked a bit lost for most of the game.

Clackstone 6 - some good bits but also left a few gaps. Will have learned a lot.
Ameobi 7 - gave us a target up front and more attacking threat.
Grant 6.5 - looks a skillful sort who should be an asset.

Until Ameobi replaced Smith, we were poor. We lacked shape and cohesion, the passing was sloppy and our forward play consisted of mainly long hoofs forward which they dealt with easily. We created next to nothing and managed to gift them a goal. Until the senseless red card they looked more likely to add a second than we did to get an equaliser. To our credit we kept battling and were unlucky when Duffy hit the bar, but were compensated with the second goal. The bewildered smiles on everyone's faces on leaving the ground made it almost seem like a win!

Very sad to see him go. It's along time since I enjoyed watching an individual player at Notts so much.

All the best for the future, Stanley.

Not a surprise, but timing before transfer window deadline closing would have been more helpful

Would being the oldest professional league club really be important if Notts are unsuccessful in their bid to retain their league 2 status?

I am interested in reading the views of other PON members.

I've just been reading about how Duffy only had to play one more game when Nolan came in to trigger another 1 year deal, however Hardy asked him to have it removed and be selected and Duffy credit to him had it removed to play more, he's not the best defender in the world but what a gesture from the man. Hopefully he can help steer us to safety and maybe get a short term deal.

Notts County season ticket holder Eric Jackson is raising awareness of a campaign to save his granddaughter’s life.

Two-year-old Florence is living with a rare cancer called Neuroblastoa and requires pioneering treatment in the USA.

 

Flo’s family must raise £250,000 to fund the trip and are off to a flying start with donations already totalling more than £100,000.

 

The case is similar to that of Sunderland supporter Bradley Lowery, who has seen the football world unite in his support.

 

Eric, who has followed Notts since the Lawton and Sewell era and sits with his wife Suzanne in the Derek Pavis Stand, is delighted with the generosity the appeal has been met with so far.

 

And he is now keen to spread the word further to help parents Rod and Caz give Flo her very best chance of getting better.

 

Eric said: “I am so proud of Rod and Caz, who could not have given or done more for Flo.

 

“They have been on 24/7 call and spend more time in hospital than they do at home.

 

“I appeal to everyone to donate, no matter how small, and share our campaign in any way they can – via social media, email or simply word of mouth.

 

“£250,000 is a huge target but we have been amazed with the response so far. A massive ‘thank you’ to everyone who has donated – it means the world to our family.”

 

Notts chairman and owner Alan Hardy added: “Everyone at Notts is devastated to hear of Flo’s story but we’re determined to help her family achieve their target.

 

“I would urge everyone to come together and support this crucial cause.”
