Who is your favourite signing of this season so far and why?

Aborah, he looks sheer class from the highlights I have seen. It seems we have quite a few who could be marketable players, so if we do wisely we could make some extra from them in the future. He is the type of player Jimmy would have liked to have had under his reign I am sure.

Not many good moments here, the better team does look to have won.

A real rainy, dreary morning here. There was a lovely red sky last night but it didn't herald good weather. (See pics)

We are staying indoors today I may do a bit of sea fishing if it clears up later.

Have a good day, let us know what you're up to.

The first fixture most Pies fans would have been scanning the fixtures for when they were published. The same goes for Mansfield fans I expect. Notts County away is their biggest game of the season, it's the one they would love to win most, a win in our backyard. 

Even though it's a Friday night, it's possible the attendance could break 10K. Mansfield will bring 3K or more and with the bright start by the Pies, the home crowd will be well up on last season. 

Mansfield recruited well in the off season, they have put together a decent squad. They will be disappointed with their 1-1 draw at home to Carlise. That's a side they should be beating. They were beaten 4-1 away to Sheff. Wed. in the LC last night. They can few complaints, Wednesday were by far the better side and it wasn't their strongest side. 

Local derbies take on a life of their own. Form goes out the window. It will be a big test for our foreign contingent. They will know what L2 football is all about after this one! 

I'm going for 3-1 to Notts. Spencer, Stead and Noble. I think our pace and power will be too much for them. I expect them to try and bully us but we will be well able for it. 

Seems there in trouble with the courts again.

Do you watch any other teams aside from Notts or your respective club? If so, why?

I have been to see Chelsea, Liverpool, Spurs, Watford, Kettering, Notts, Port Vale, Middlesborough and Millwall. I tend to get invited to games by friends, in fact I plan to attend your game against Mansfield.

Anyone got a spare space in the car tomorrow night I'd give you petrol money

Live in chilwell

Now i'm back from the hols I thought it was about time we got this part of the forum moving so...

Cuba.

1. Has anyone ever been?

2. Is the 'new' relationship between USA and Cuba a good idea?

It's an interesting one for me because it's a place I've always wanted to visit and always watched their political situation with interest. (hands up those who have at some point had a Che t-shirt or poster!!!)

There's quite an interesting insight into his training methods too.

I, as many of the other 7K Notts fans in attendance last night, have woken up today with a very sour taste in my mouth. The same sour taste as if you were to consume a HUGE packet of Haribo Tangfastics as you cried yourself to sleep and leave yourself asking.. "Is this real?"

Yes we played bloody woefully.. For a game as important as this, not only it being our first home game where we get to put our stamp on the home form in this league but a chance at early bragging rights.

This was a derby that only one team turned up for and FULL credit to Mansfield because they gave one hell of a performance both on and off the pitch, it was an absolute incredible performance from the 'yellows' that saw them boss every aspect of the game in all areas.

But that sour taste is accompanied by optimism... As I was purchasing my home shirt in the club shop at the end of the game i said to myself "I am willing to disregard what I witnessed tonight and put it down to lack of fight and determination for the occasion from the players and nothing more. I will carry on my belief through what I witnessed in pre-season, coupled with what I saw at Stevenage and what I read about the Huddersfield game and give the players time".
I know this is going to be nothing short of an impressive season for Notts.. one i am very glad to be a part of. With Oxford Tuesday night and Accrington on Saturday, the players will soon get a feel for the physical and demanding pace of this league and soon find their comfort zone and be racking up the points...
COYP!!!!
 

So here we are on a beautiful morning in a field in our camper van at Flamborough.

Yesterday our gas ran out, no problem thinks I its just a case of swapping to the small spare one we keep for such an occasion and then get another. Everything fine until the early hours when a clicking noise woke us and disaster the emergency gas had also ran out, the clicking was the gas fridge trying to ignite.

Since this site hasn't got electricity this means that we have no morning cuppa, no hot water to wash etc., a trip to Bridlington I think this morning to get the gas replenished.

Have a good day each.

Heard on radio Nottingham this morning that Colin Slater has had one of the trams named after him.

What a great idea and a lovely tribute to Colin who has been commentating on Notts for 47 years. A can't actually remember Notts County without Colin and I am REALLY old.

Will Forest end up facing life back in League 1 after this season? Answer yes or no.

Good morning all, I hope we are all not feeling too down after last nights disappointment, there will be better days... Hopefully.

Today is a mix of sun and cloud our camper van is loaded and we are off up North where I've heard it is grim, not too grim I hope. We are also popping in to see an old colleague on the way so looking forward to that.

Have a good day all and CHEER UP!
