Has anyone seen the story on Sky News about the team that was sent to play away, lost badly.....then it was discovered that all 11 players were "imposters"....incredible.

I'm being serious guys.

.............I knew that result away at Salford was dodgy!!!

After celebrating Sir Charlie Palmer day by watching both Notts goals v Rushcliffe, on YouTube....I went the whole hog by watching us beat Ascoli 2-1 at Wembley (goals from Legg, long throw-in directly into the onion-bag!! and a bullet header from Devon White)....then the 3-0 humiliation of Spurs (cracking first goal from Agana).....then McSwegan's hat-trick as part of the 4-1 thrashing of Derby............those were the days huh?

One thing you notice watching all these games...is the fact that we never seemed to stop chasing the ball and throwing our bodies in....ok, we might not be able to get away with some of those tackles now, but the attitude was tremendous!

Now we spend our days discussing whether we can reach the play-offs of the 4th division or beat York City....grrrrrrr

ps I still cannot see why the last "goal" from Legg v Ascoli was dis-allowed, as it was actually deflected into the net from an indirect free-kick....c'est la vie

Would you welcome either as signings or perhaps both of them?

Jason Banton is a player who seems frequently linked - He was mentioned when we struggled in League One last year and if Twitter is to be believed he's training with us, along with the former Rams defender Miles Addison. I can't claim to know a lot about the pair - Miles seems to be quite inconsistent, whilst to a degree so is Jason but he's a player who does have spells where he seems on fire (in terms of performances).

I'm overly sure what they offer us though, discuss... 

Saturday's Fixtures:
Burnley v Hull City
Charlton Athletic v Bristol City
Sheffield United v Wigan Athletic
Southend United v Colchester United
Newport County v Barnet
Wycombe Wanderers v Luton Town

If I go with friends to see Notts, I always sit in the kop but depending on the numbers I do not always sit in the same place. I only ever do when I am alone or with family. The area is normally filled with the same people, I wonder if you always sit within the same area?

How many fans do you speak with within that section also?

Sorry I haven't done this for a while been a bit busy but anyone saturday is the trip to York City so it's that time for the guessing game 

Players /Coaches /Managers / Staff 

Well it's been a busy week here up on the Altiplano (no, not the famous Mexican jail currently housing El Chapo!!)

Firstly I have my first baby sheep, born here on the Hacienda. Complete surprise, didn't even spot the mother was pregnant.

Here she is about 7 hours old.

To celebrate the new arrival, Miriam and I went out for the weekend......and ended up climbing Mount Cerro Quemado......we drove the 15 miles from the Hacienda at 4,500 feet, to an old abandoned mining village at 9,000 feet........then climbed the last 1,000 feet to the top......crazy Tarkers, it took me a week to recover!!

We spotted some of the ancient Huichol Indians doing the same on the mountain trail, an annual 300 mile pilgrimage to their ancestral Wirikuta lands to thank the Gods on the summit, then back down to the valley (in my pic) to collect the "legal drug" Peyote. This they use in Shaman ceremonies to contact their ancestors and speak to the Gods.

Here is the mountain overlooking my land

.....and the view from the top 10,000 feet......and I hate heights!!.......that is the Altiplano below me and the Pacific in the distance.

Huichol Indians on the way down chatting to Miriam....(I think they were telling her that I shouldn't take pics, apparently I was "stealing" their spirit?)

...I've had enough.....3 hours walk back down to the bar.......bye Miriam.........grrrrrr

I have spent the day so far with my family, Ava (my youngest) has been drawing and reading. Jake hasn't moved from the PS3 where he plays FIFA as Chelsea (booooooo).

Myself, I've been relaxing whilst playing with them but I have also been looking at games via Steam.

I miss RPG turn based games, rather like Vandal Hearts - which is for me one of the best story based games ever and vastly underrated by people who crave Final Fantasy (Don't get me wrong, I like it especially 7 and 8 - but it comes overrated). I'll probably find time to do some writing at some stage.

What did you do instead of the watching the game today? Curse that rain!!

Welcome to PON @manchesterchris, hope you enjoy yourself on here! Seems we have a bit of a contigent in the north-west.

Fancy telling us a bit about yourself? Fell free to get involved, this is a friendly community

Neil Warnock is odds on favourite to become our third manager in this most crappy of seasons. If anyone can keep us in the Campionship, he can.

.....if this is honestly the best Republican candidate that they could find!!

Here is Trump's victory speech from last night...........not sure if the guy is certifiably insane, or whether it is me?...............but if anyone lets this guy anywhere near that "little red button", if and when he gets into the White House, then I am heading for the underground bunker!

Can you imagine the "diplomacy" between him and the other fruitcake in North Korea?

"I bet I can nuke you first"

"No, I bet I can nuke you first".....nahnahnahnahnah......BOOM

how many matches do you go to per season?

i attend almost all the home games, if i miss any it will be due to work. so i would say 17-20.

Just thought I'd post a link to this, looks more fun that just walking out in protest!

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/35464102

It looks like prices are a problem in Germany as well.

who else can notts afford to release?

if the rumours are true about us supposedly looking into other players, surely we should continue to release some players if its affordable?

Happy Birthday @erindoors, I hope you have a wonderful birthday.

Pride of Nottingham would like to wish you many happy returns - who wants a piece of PONcake?

I thought it would be good to have a thread where we can share funny videos we find online. As long as all the protagonists are fully clothed there's no harm done!

Here's one I spotted today to start off with. In the 90s video games were the next Bad Thing in the media, corrupting the minds of the next generation. What would become of these poor children when they grow up?

Now we know.

Just noticed @super_ram's side has taken it upon themselves to sack Paul Clement - I think this is a complete joke, I know there forms dipped but I still argue they're overachieving.

What do you think?

Question: PON follower 'Wayne Merrin' has raised an opinion on attracting younger fans to Meadow Lane.

"Wouldn't it make sense that to generate a larger crowd AND revenue, that children under the age of say 10 years old are let in free (with paying adult)?

This could generate the next generation of supporters at Notts."

So who is considering going to a festival this summer? I've got Creamfields lined up... four days and nights of pure dance music!! BOOM!!!

This gonna be me in August

Apparently miles Addison isn't on trial he was offered one or got one but apparently he didn't turn up the reasons behind it are unknown.

Banton is still on trial Intresting on the webchat as well about the foreign players how all have been removed or released abroah is fit but can't get in the team.

Also Leigh making the point that Snidjers struggled to get in ricardos team an isn't even making the bench which was the point I made aswell looks like he could be the next one out.

Also we did try and sign Jonah ayunga I belive who chose Brighton over us which is fair enough higher standard of football.

But yea so no Addison but bantons still with us seems there is a lot of players now out the picture clearly Burke Snidjers De Silva Stanley isn't gettin game time it's starting to look more clear now 

I do like the choreography at European matches. Here are 2 examples from games @Blackville and I were at a couple of weeks ago.

Firstly Gladbach fans before the derby against Koln showing a goat being spanked with the strapline 'in the good old tradition'.

Secondly Vitesse fans before the game against Willem II Tilburg.

When we were at school my sister learned one instrument after another (she eventually became a music teacher) while I never bothered with it all. I've regretted in since though. Just before Christmas I walked into Aldi for a pint of milk and when I walked out again I was the proud owner of a brand new nylon-string guitar. I practice every day but frankly you couldn't mistake me for Jimi Hendrix yet.

Obviously an Aldi guitar isn't the creme-de-la-creme and I'm looking to acquire a steel-string guitar in the near future. I'm on the lookout for an affordable model (I don't want to be scared to take it anywhere) but also decent quality. Do any of you play and have any tips?

Do any of you play any other musical instruments?

I was just reading this story published by CNN. http://edition.cnn.com/2016/01/28/entertainment/most-popular-movie-stars-u-s-feat/

Tom Hanks has covered some interesting characters and is a well timed actor, he can really portray them honestly and in a way that makes you relate to the on scene story. I am wondering what the members of PON think since it seems a little quiet around here.

Who is your favourite actors/actresses?

What do you make of this decision? Will Gary MacKenzie help improve things at the back and do you have any concerns regarding the amount of first team games he's featured in recently? Discuss...
