I hope you enjoyed that result, two tremendous goals from England. Individual Brilliance from Kane, who had his back to goal on the edge of a crowded penalty area. Classy turn, instinctive finish and a goal from nothing. Equally instinctive from Vardy, the sort of goal usually scored against us and hailed as genius, then a typically 'English' goal to win it. 
 

@Blackville and I will be there this afternoon. I'll try and bring back back 2 or 3 defenders for Monday.

Is this a lack of confidence ? Is it a lack of ability ? Or no pride in the shirt ? What do you think . Just heard MC bang on , how refreshing , is that the only plus , for me yes , well said MC , real job on .

Okay, I designed a couple of mobile wallpapers awhile back but I never actually released them - although they seemed very 'popular' and I did have several requests to release them but for one reason or another I never did. I plan to do this now, along with a few more.

Not just mobile but eventually for bigger devices.

Would anyone be interested in the wallpaper below or a different one?

What line-up should Mark Cooper opt for? What will be the key areas for the Magpies to get a victory? What do you think the final score will be?

    Hewitt's defending is pathetic. It actually made me angry watching those highlights. He totally ignores even the very basics of defending.

    Goal 1: Get yourself goalside. Doesn't even try, and the attacker is able to go on like he's not even there.
    Goal 2: Track your runner. Doesn't.
    Goal 4: Mark your man in the box and challenge him in the air if necessary. Doesn't even get close.

    Goal 3 is a Hollis switch off.

    What stands out is as is par for this season, they are all weak goals to concede. You wouldn't be as annoyed if there was at least a challenge to the attacker in which the defender was beaten, it's understandable. However, not one of those goals was the attacker under any pressure what-so-ever. You can understand why MC was raging.

    That last paragraph is an excellent summary of our problems.  We are such an easy team to score against.  Our full backs don't prevent crosses coming in, our central defenders don't offer a challenge when those crosses do come in.  The midfield allow opponents to run or even walk past them at will.  Further to that, we don't create chances and score any more.  Any team that is lacking quality but are organised and hardworking (most in this division) will be too good for us, because organisation and hard work is something we just don't have.  We are very, very lucky that D&R and York seem even worse than us. 

    i dont blame cooper but he should have made changes.

    not the greatest opening game for the new manager but he will see what needs to change. 4-0 is a bad result whatever way you look at it but i fear it could have been worse.

After the past few performances its evident that some players simply aren't good enough and the size of our squad is far too big anyway we still have 32 players registered to play for the first team, who would you keep and who would you bin ? (I'm unsure who's contracts run out in the summer but I know a few are running out)

For me I would keep;

1. Loach (obvious reasons)

2. Adams (only because he's our best left back)

3. Murray (he gives 100% but hasn't been given a proper chance)

4. Milsom (has shown glimpses of being a decent player)

5. Thompson (many will disagree but I think based on last season he is worth keeping)

6. Noble (obvious reasons)

7. Hewitt (like Curtis he is young and I think a good manager will help him develop)

8. Campbell (always tries his best, still young)

9. Burke (has shown glimpses of quality)

10. Banton (has shown glimpses of being a good winger)

11. Oh Stanley Aborah! (Need I say more)

Maybes; (I haven't seen enough to judge and the three youth players)

Genaro S, Sharpe, valencic, Atkinson, Sarpong, Bishop, Jordon Richards, Amevor, De Silva

Shaun Derry got us to 3rd in league 1 then we dropped down and down to 21st and fans called for him to be sacked

Under moniz we were safely mid-table but conceded 2 goals or more in 8 consecutive games and had only won away once all season. Fans called for him to be sacked

We then get Fullerton who plays poor football, takes us on a run of 7 games without a win but won 3 away from home. Fans hatted him and got him out

We now have Mark Cooper and finally realise the players are not good enough

Are we the fans to blame for our downfall ? Have we ever given a manager a proper chance ? With Moniz it didn't look like we were going to improve but we have now dropped down into a potential relegation battle

On live now....absolutely stunning football....the skill levels are out of this world....2-0 to Brazil after 25 minutes.

Breathtaking

As it's Easter weekend, this round will take lace on Friday, with round 37 then taking place on the Monday. I will hopefully post the fixtures for Monday on either Friday night or Saturday. Also as it's an International weekend there are no championship fixtures, so its three grom league one and three from league two. 

 

Friday's Fixtures:
Barnsley v Scunthorpe United
Colchester United v Doncaster Rovers
Shrewsbury Town v Port Vale
Accrington Stanley v Leyton Orient
Hartlepool United  v AFC Wimbledon
York City v Crawley Town

Sad news has recently broke that Johan Cruyff's sadly passed a way. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/35892775

A true legend of football.

R.I.P Johan Cruyff.

Evening fellow Notts fans.

......no not a gimp.....I do NOT have JF tied up in a Mexican cellar, inside a wooden trunk...... wearing leather and a ball-gag!

Whilst we are all furiously hitting the "update" button trying to find out the new owners of Notts..... .....a little diversion for your delectation.

ps (I happen to have inside info on the progress of my Uncle Griegor and the Albanian consortium....it hit a snag when RT refused to include Doris, the tea-lady, as part of the sale!...my uncle is "one for the ladies" having already acquired 14 wives which are happily ensconced in a 1950s Russian tower block on the outskirts of Tirana. Negotiations continue)

Anyway, back on topic............"No, not another opossum movie Tarqs"...I hear you cry.

I have a new baby animal born yesterday......and there is a faint possibility that it is a Geep or sheep/goat hybrid.....the odds are about the same as Notts winning the Europa Cup next season, so I am not getting too excited....yet!

Before I start this mornings riveting pelicula....my apologies @erindoors, I always spell your name correctly, but mispronounce it as Eileen, I seem to have a mental block when filming.

 

 

Moniz made Carroll captain, JF made Stead captain but with Carroll not playing and JF gone, who should be our captain? I've always thought Noble would make a good captain of he could stay on the pitch. It will be interesting to see who MC names as captain on Friday, my bets with Stead. I just want to see a team with pride, passion and fights to the end, not expecting us to win every game but as long as we're picking up a few points, scoring goals I'm happy.

Clubs don't need instant success they need Soul and a deliverable long term plan that fans can feel part of ...

 

Maybe the last few months of this year, the latter has not been the case. I too felt so disenfranchised from my team...or maybe it felt it wasn't my team, in my name..... Now looking forward to Portsmouth with renewed hope, for just not now but for the future too COYP

Adam Virgo people go on Twitter and read the inside of a ex professional who has played at top levels such as Brighton Celtic.

He has been giving his insight on Jamie Fullarton and what he thought when was playing under him as a pro read his Twitter he has put it up with a conversation with a Notts fan link below

according to the redrag.Rt meeting Chinese consortium today.

A telling comment from Uncle Colin on Notts Radio......."I bowled JF quite a few soft deliveries in my interviews.......assuming he would hit them, so as to appeal to the general public.....no, nothing......then I started to wonder about his team talks"......mmmmmmmm

I know it's a fortnight away but the international break has come just at the wrong time for us, as we're on a roll ATM & I can't wait to see the Fatman's return to NYS.
Dirty Leeds have got nowt to play for, their fans are demonstrating against Cellino & I'd love to chant "sacked in the morning" to our shameless self publicist of an ex manager if we beat them.
At the risk of setting myself up for a massive fall (used to it), but I'll go 2-1 Millers in a tense game.

Just noticed this via the Notts County wall, was it presented before the match Saturday? Looks like some good news which was 'lost' among the other stuff Saturday.

Can't find more info on the PFA site, perhaps PoN could contact Genaro to ask about the work he has been doing?

Congratulation on the award Genaro.

Yes it started badly.....9am watching Notts on the internet getting stuffed by Exeter.

1pm picked up Dr Miriam from the bus station.......restaurant and a few beers......things are obviously improving.

Bought a few bales of hay, 40 kg of chicken food and 40kg of dog food on the way home.

Several beers in the garden..............5pm a huge thunderstorm, wow........RAIN..... sheep and goats are dancing.......I am literally jumping up and down with delight.......can it get better?

Miriam cooks dinner....then drags me into bed for a quick 1-hours "nap".........now I am beginning to think I am dreaming.....a "nap" at 7pm.....yum yum

Now she is sound asleep and snoring..................I log in...................... and find that George Formby is back plying his trade in Great Yarmouth!!!......I start laughing and cheering!!

Oh lordy lordy.....things don't get much better.....I am in heaven......I think I need another beer.

 

Is anyone going to this? An audience with Mike Edwards, Roy Carroll and Alan Smith on the 31/03/16. £5 a ticket inc free pint! I've bought a ticket looks a good night, hopefully everyone's still in good spirits by then. 

BBC are reporting that Mr T has agreed a deal in principle with the american consortium but are saying he has a meeting with a Chinese geezer on Tuesday.

I don't like the sound of a 'consortium' taking over at Notts, they might have money but be right idiots and have no clue about football, I'd much rather have Alan Hardy who care about notts and would care about the fans!

For anyone who hasn't seen it...................https://www.facebook.com/BBCNottinghamSport/?fref=ts
