The manager speaks about the importance of the fans at Meadow Lane ahead of the Sky Bet League Two match with Yeovil Town.

Last season after Ricardo was sacked, Meadow Lane just became very depressing.
This season to a degree it's been quite awful, just the vibe and lack of atmosphere. Everything has been lifted with the sale of the club - its like a different place. Despite struggling, fans are showing that is support if you value it and Kevin Nolan seems very promising in terms of what he brings. Him and Alan Hardy seem to be the right pairing. Nolan is also quite amusing and another PON member mentioned how he reminds him of Martin Allen.
Well the comment about fans telling their wives about them going to the game, that's MA all over. LOL
hes brilliant, i think he just approaches things well.
as a manager he speaks his mind and the honesty is refreshing, as is the sense of humour. without him or alan we would still be all gloomy so credit is deserved all round.
Has a club ever thrown away good wishes and sympathy as effectively as Sutton over the last few days?
1. Ditching their usual sponsor for 'The Sun' for a few squalid pounds - 30 pieces of silver comes to mind.
2.

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..

One word, DELIGHTED!!!! #keepitup COYP
Crawley, Cheltenham and now Leyton Orient, all big wins for Notts.
Poor teams but all showed some fighting spirit, maybe not so much Cheltenham but they moved the ball around well. Big test is about to come but I feel we have more structure under Nolan. He is doing well and credit must fall equally on his and the players shoulders. I feel quite proud to be a Notts again, the lads are showing the spirit we have wanted to see all season. Well done Notts!
Pleased to see Notts pulling off another victory, 2-2 wouldn't have been the worst result but the win is a lot sweeter.
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.

Out of the last dozen managers, Nolan is the first I actually listen out for after a game. He speaks with sense and passion, its good to have someone like that here. He reminds me of Martin Allen in a sense.

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?

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.

I'm so glad we didn't leave, Mum said a few times shall we go, but we didn't. Great fightback by Notts. Hope we can pick up a point, at least on Saturday.
That was the equivalent of a husband arriving home late on Valentines, but saving the day with a dozen red roses and a box of Belgian chocolates. Massive point given the circumstances.
Delighted with the fightback, fantastic point but HTF did Orient win at Plymouth?? As has been mentioned though, it brings more clubs into the firing line after tonights results. For the record, our (RUFC) season lurches from one disaster to another (lost 3-2 to Huddersfield...93rd minute winner)
Minimum 4 points from Orient /Yeovil.....right?
COYP
Alot of argyle supporters have been complaining about the ref and saying orient are a dirty team, so whether they deserved to win im not so sure
Tuesday night's Fixtures:
Norwich City v Newcastle United
