With so much strong feelings both for and against purchasing at the moment , I was wondering how hard is it hitting the club , and how many have stood firm in not getting one yet , what are the thoughts of the community.

Well he's got to be up for a challenge to have taken the job with the current players, nothing really said from his press conference that we wouldn't usually expect other than we'll be aiming for promotion, however he has stated he will not be replacing Guy Branston but will bring in a chief scout - woah hang on things are actually looking up a proper experienced manager with a proper backroom staff, is this Notts County? ????

He will be adding players to squad - we all know we need that, this squad needs major surgery, John Sheridan knows how to build teams for this league so I trust him in performing the surgery. 

John Sheridan's black and white army..

Hopefully the Trews will get us out of the embargo, pay the money we owe if they are sticking around and hopefully the decision to appoint and "back" Sheridan pays off and this time next year the mood will be party time..

Onwards and upwards, can't be as bad as last year, can it?

Right, I'm fed up of all the doom and gloom around here. I had a fantastic weekend and refused to let Notts spoil it.

In Germany the hated winter break is over and even the Regionalliga Süd kicked off again with a top two clash between Waldhof Mannheim and Eintracht Trier at the weekend. I was one of the 11,299 in attendance and now really believe that promotion can happen.

The atmopshere around the place is fantastic and an incredible contrast to Notts at the moment! Waldhof have a young manager in his third full season, a settled, focused team where every player knows his job and youngsters are given a chance and no little experience and quality either. Last season they finished 13th (out of 18) and had an average gate of 3,000. Just goes to show what can be achieved on a relatively modest budget.

Have a look at this video and remember this will be Notts again one day. The goals are at 5.08 and 6.18 if you're interested.

Sadly passed away. As he said, he was the greatest of all time!!!

The clubs twitter account have confirmed that the transfer embargo has been lifted and we are in a position to sign players!

Being a Notts site, this place is full of doom and gloom. And that's fine - we all need to sound off. But we need a counterbalance too.

So sod Notts, post something that makes you happy.

Here's some babies laughing.

Hello, 

I am currently putting together a study on car parking facilities & supporter preferences at all 92 current football league clubs and I would really appreciate a few minutes of your time to complete a short survey.

I'm hoping that this will allow me to put these results forward to some of the clubs in order to help improve the match day experience for supporters.

Many thanks in advance!

Here's an interesting OTD: Something I will never see in my lifetime I am sure.

I thought I would share it with the community.

i am not sure there is any real intent to sell the club.

i just read this article on the posts website about how john sheridans dream of taking us to the championship is music to the ears of ray. it does not read like something that a chairman who has lost interest or decided to sell because he is annoyed with certain abusers etc would say. i know other fans have felt this way for some time now but i hope its not just a ploy to sell tickets also.

we need to move on from the past 4 seasons and all the silly drama which has came from it.

for me it starts with new owners, not a new manager declaring the same stuff other ex managers have said. are others really that fickle to believe it?

According to Radio Red

The beast Akinfenwa has been released by the dons, would you have him at Notts?

From what ive seen he's the opposite of Izale! He is a big strong lad that gets himself about a lot

With the BBC reporting that John Sheridan is going to be announced as the new manager, does this give us an indication of what is happening behind the scenes? I'm assuming that Sheridan is still under contract with Oldham so that would mean compensation is being paid? Could this mean one of two things? The take over is finally happening, or has Ray Trew tidied up the toys and is going to have one more crack at it? I can't imagine that this appointment would be made if it was the case of Trew just letting the club bobble on by?

Wot the title sez. They play-offs kicked off last night, with Plymouth drawing 2-2 at Portsmouth. But who's going up? Anyone who predicts this right wins a lock of my hair.

Championship: Brighton

League One: Bradford

League Two: Accrington

Basically saying 4 "big" loan players not adequately replaced? I recall previous recollections by Derry that Cassidy was a major loss! Early signs of dementia maybe....

Interesting comments on wages in L2, Cambridge players on 500 to 1250 per week 

The club have extended the early bird season ticket deal until Saturday 4th June! Its only a few days longer but its extended none the less!

Was just casually watching this today and I couldn't help but think of Liam Noble whenever Didier Peskovic was mentioned... see for yourselves!

A good listen, even quoting Steak Diana Ross and Jimmy Sirrel stories

The Nottingham post are reporting that we have 'parted company' with Guy Branston!

No, not at Notts County. Inverness Caley Thistle have shared a letter sent by Ewen, a 7-year-old boy, applying to manage the Scottish club.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-highlands-islands-36387520

He'd certainly be a budget option - all he wants is a bit of help with his homework, and his credentials are on par with Jamie Fullarton...

Now Mark Cooper has gone who would you want in charge next season ?

Guy branston ? Trev the groundsman? Or Tina the tea lady?

Just read on another board about bills outstanding and ccj's , don't know how accurate these comments are , but if true not a good reflection of our club , thoughts please

Dear all,
Given that research is finding a more sanitised and gentrified culture of British football (see:https://www.academia.edu/18862556/Football_Fans_Views_of_Violence_in_British_Football_Evidence_of_a_Sanitized_and_Gentrified_Culture), I am hoping you could spare a few minutes to share your views on policing at football:

Thanks in advance.

114 years was a long time between drinks. I'd like to be in Leith tonight!
