Robbie You Just Smashed It. You are so right about Jason Turner the influence the positivity and his footballing knowledge had an immense impact at the Lane, His Tragic Death last season hit the club staff players and fans like a bomb going off. His photo was carried by the players at Wembley and I'm sure the memories of Jason's time as C.E.O at Notts helped inspire the Lads to their victory over Chesterfield. And as you have stated Jason's death may have also been a factor in Notts misfortunes, because his personality and footballing know how, would have certainly helped Stuart Maynard's transition into the Magpies New Head Coach. You may want to put your comment on Social Media, it may give certain Notts Fans pause for thought.

It’s just like Notts to control the game, keep the pressure on, but then let in a goal. People are making too much of Stuart Maynard’s words about crosses. He might have just slipped up. Jatta might not be the best at handling crosses unless he can bring them down, as he prefers the ball at his feet. Some say he’s not good in the air, but I’d still have given him a chance. I won’t use a stressed head coach’s words to prove a point; it’s not that important. Some of our supporters on social media wouldn’t cope with being in management for even a day.
-
At the 90-minute point, I had a feeling it wasn’t going to be our day. Regrettably, we lost our focus and fell to a rather weak Wimbledon team. I didn’t hear any jeering directed at the players, only at the officials. Those around me were vocal in their criticism and made their feelings clear. On a different day, we might have scored two or three goals. A goal for Notts could have completely changed the game. I don’t believe it would have ended in a draw if we had taken the lead. However, we need to improve our defence at the moment. This situation is leaving Stuart Maynard with very little support, but it’s crucial that the club remains united.
-
The launching of the Notts County Memory Club for former players is a great idea by the Club, and the first meeting will be held later this month.

The club should be careful not to overwhelm people like Les Bradd. He’s done a great job with the stadium tours, and while it’s good to involve legends, we sometimes need to wait for the right time to make the most impact.
-
It’s a good move by the club. It would be great if Notts’ staff could be more creative and try new things, not just copy other clubs. But it’s good they’re open to trying proven ideas. I’m confident it’ll work well, especially if Les is in charge.
-
It’s an interesting idea, and it’s good to see Notts trying new things. It’s a bit of a distraction from the team’s current form, but it could be positive in the long run. Maybe Les could start a dating event at the club too?
What’s coming up next, a Notts County singles club? The Lonely Magpies Heart Club?

I’m grateful for PON too, it’s usually my go-to when I see some of the brilliant content that’s shared on the site. It’s got me curious, my moustache is practically jumping off my face with excitement. Most of my online activity is reading the news, I don’t really participate in other discussion forums. I seldom use social media, I definitely don’t spend time on Twitter. So, what are some of your other favourite websites? I enjoy checking BBC News and Sports, CNET, Android Authority to name a few.
How about you?

pon is my main go to, its the only site i have a quick access link to.
i do watch youtube but the double ads and constant things they have done in order to block ads, despite me not having anything on my browser that does that has made me consume much less videos. besides all the good creators seem to be leaving, there is a mass exit of them doing so or employing people to run their channels and its not the same.
facebook i used quite a bit, messenger more so at least to keep tabs on people and i have made it a goal of mine to message mr ram above me. bbc sport, sky sports, some of the papers like the mirror who from time to time do good football articles.
twitter seldomly, but i only do it mostly to engage with pon and members outside. i thought it gave me a good way to get to know some of them that i really enjoy better.
-
The best website on the internet (apart from PON of course) is https://engrish.com/ - which focuses on bad English translations, mainly from the Far East
Another good one is the English Companions' website, a treasure trove of information for anyone interested in Anglo-Saxon history.
Apart from that, I usually read the Guardian online and always read Martina Hyde's column and I sometimes lurk on an SV Waldhof forum.

Oh I've read this wrong with the title being A Discussion on Favourite Websites, I thought you meant Websites produced by Fans (might be an idea for another article) Allardyce's Tash? Notts official Website, Notts You tube BBC and of course Pride Of Nottingham.

not to be negative but is 26 seconds all they can come up with? why not use their socials to get fans to submit questions and therefore they could make them more meaningful to watch. i felt disappointed to get such a short clip.it does not tell me much either.i just realised the youtube video is the full one, still quite short but much better.

We all remember the great goals but what about the great saves?
This save from England great, Gordon Banks, from a Pele header during the Brazil v England game at the 1970 World Cup in Mexico, is my favourite all time greatest save.

A great save from David Seaman from the 2003 FA Cup Semi Final against Sheffield United.
-
Gordon Banks, Peter Shilton, and David Seaman were all top goalkeepers. It’s been some time since we’ve had a keeper of their calibre who’s also outstanding for their club. Jordan Pickford is decent, but he hasn’t lived up to expectations at Everton. Joining them might not have been the best move.
-
That’s my favourite save too @Robbie, I’ve never seen one to better it and even Pele could not believe he got to it.
We used to have some of the best keepers in the world back then, now you’re struggling to name more than half a dozen as the “sweeper” keeper appears to be more fashionable.

we have a good history playing villa, we might not always win but they seem to be great games between two good teams despite any difference in the playing levels.
-
It’s important to preserve and share our history, especially with new supporters. We should take pride in our past, and Notts fans ought to unite in celebrating it.

A wonderful piece of history indeed. Perhaps one day we’ll go even further and have more to celebrate!

On Saturday Notts take on Wimbledon at Meadow Lane. How many links between the two clubs can we find?
My contribution is Neil Ardley who managed both teams. How many more links can we find?

oh this is hard but i managed to come up with a player i remember @Piethagoram mentioning. he was a very good player i felt, someone i wished we had seen more of during his loan and after he was released from his club, i wished he had signed for us.

The big takeaways from this press conference is that the team has been training hard for Saturday's match with Wimbledon & they know that it is going to be a tough match.
They are treating these last 12 games as a mini league and they will do their up most to try to get as many points as possible.
The team believes that they still have an excellent chance of making the playoffs, and they want to do their best for the Notts supporters.
And I still believe too.
-
regarding sam austin i think he has done well when given a chance recently, i do like seeing him come on from off the bench in the second half as teams are tiring and expecting us to be more focused down the sides. he finds the pockets of space in the middle and although he works well going wide, he has the ability to bring it back in and then give it to someone like dan crowley.
-
-
i thought this was worth sharing here, as i agree with everything mentioned in the post.
-
It’s written very well and the words capture my feelings perfectly, I couldn’t have expressed it better. We earned our promotion based on the points we accumulated in the league, but we were lucky or fortunate to beat a strong Chesterfield team on penalties. I think we should be grateful that we had two superior goalkeepers with different strengths. We’ve made significant progress, but some problems from the National League still persist. It might take a while, but Notts will be stronger next season.
-
Every single Notts fan need to show their loyalty and get behind Stuart and the team on Saturday.
We are the joint top scorers in the league.
We are just 7 points off a playoff spot with a game in hand.
We have everything to play for.
I say crisis, what crisis?
Are we in danger of relegation? No.
Do we still have a chance of promotion? Yes.
Have we made progress from last year?
Yes.

Sam left us 18 months later @liampie, so he had another full season after that one. We struggled after we went up. We suffered an injury to a key player (Sean Farrell) and couldn't score. But in the end we stayed up comfortably after bringing in a series of strikers (including Stallard) and did well the following season.
To put it in the right context, we hadn't played in the fourth division for 30 years until that promotion season. Dropping that far seemed almost as unimaginable as falling into the National League a few years back, and it was really important to the club to bounce back quickly. So it was all the more depressing when things went downhill again after Sam left.
-
It would have been an amazing season to watch unfold, before my time though, but I appreciate reading what fans have to say. @DangerousSausage has some very interesting comments which help to learn more about the season.
-
The thing I remember most about that season was Big Sam singing “We are the Champions” whilst holding the trophy aloft.

Morning everyone, I’ve got a nasty dose of man flu, I reckon I caught it off @Chris when I read one of his posts.
Mrs. T is pampering me but she refuses to wear a nurses uniform.

Whats everyone else up to this weekend?

week days its all work, non stop and i am reaching the point where i feel overtime needs to be reduced.
saturday i was looking forward to going to bradford even though i did not have any company, i felt disappointed when the match was called off because of the wasted fuel and time but thats football. i decided to drive to manchester to meet up with @TheSkipper, which was good. sunday is always usually the same for me, shopping and visit my mum.

The managers page has been updated to reflect on the appointment of Stuart Maynard.
-
I penned a brief blog post about the booing, trying to shed some light on the situation. Like some of the remarks, I hope it’s a one-time thing, but with the growing pressure on Stuart Maynard, I wouldn’t wager on it.
-
I don’t believe one person can pinpoint everything that’s currently happening with Notts. Performances have shifted from being quite entertaining and yielding some excellent results at the start of the season to being absolutely dreadful. When Notts collapses, they do so dramatically, and I find no solace in seeing our club struggle. We’ve transitioned from resembling Juve to a struggling Udinese within the same season. What might be pressure, injuries, fatigue, loss of manager etc. is starting to become a more serious issue with more fans increasingly losing their patience. So, how does Notts navigate this complex situation? It’s not as simple as winning games or sacking Stuart Maynard. Results could go a long way, but at this stage in the season, I can’t foresee a dramatic change in form. The simplest thing anyone can suggest is to win the remaining games, but considering just how many the club has lost recently, there needs to be a more collective solution.

I think not adding to our defence over the summer was a mistake, it's easy to say in hindsight now but at the same time I totally understand why you'd give the players who got you promoted the chance to prove themselves. The recruitment team (overall) have done a pretty good job. The January window is far from ideal to be doing a lot of business. The simplest reason we didn’t sign any defenders in their peak could just be because we didn’t have/find any good available options. (Insert joke about a statue being better than our defenders here) But imagine we signed two CB’s permanently because “we thought we had too” but there were doubts about if they were good enough and that turned out to be true, that’s another 2 players on the books for x years. I’m sure it’ll be addressed in the summer when we can get the right players in.
I don’t think we need to deviate too far from what’s made us successful since the Reedtz brothers came in and I don’t think we will. It’s just cutting out stupid mistakes and playing safer at times, just knocking it out for a throw or clearing a ball into the stands every now and again won’t change our style.
In terms of defending, yes, we need induvial quality but I also think we need proper wing-backs if we’re going to stick with the 3-4-2-1. (Basically we need to play some more defenders and not just 3!) We were able to play JJ and Nemane in the league below because our quality was a level above and the oppositions quality was not great. Neither really play like wingbacks let’s be honest they are wingers who just drop back occasionally to make up the numbers when we aren’t on the ball. When was the last time an actual wing-back had 20 assists? It just doesn’t happen.
-
going into the transfer window, i did have hopes that we would sign an experienced defender but we brought in jaden warner and lewis macari permanently. both looked okay at the time, i did hope that we would still make a signing that made us feel that the defence would have someone fresh and experienced to help reduce the mistakes made in games.
i like jaden warner but i think we dont help him at times with repeatedly changing where he starts. i think we need to figure out who the best player is in the middle of the back three and when that turns to four or whatever it does not lose shape for certain players.
i love that our owners are ready to invest but my point about the jata fee, we could have spent it adding depth to cover the injuries and avoiding some of these pointless loans we have had. its been a poor season for bringing in players on loan, almost like its been an after thought or panic signing.
-
The football has still been pretty good, I mean we’ve come a long way. At the start of the season, there were fans who complained that Macaulay Langstaff hadn’t scored and questioned if he could make the grade at League Two level. Then there was the worry about not being able to score, despite the form being good and us maintaining a healthy top 3 place.
I don’t remember when exactly more people started complaining about the defence, but I’ve never seen any comments blaming this on Luke Williams, even though it was a problem before Stuart Maynard took over. Our football hasn’t changed all that much, we just let in goals and need to score more than those who find our defence easy enough. It means that it’s much harder to get results, but we aren’t performing all that badly. There are games where we are quite poor, but it’s because of our attack that we aren’t struggling to score. If this was the case, I would be more worried, but I think we’ll improve soon.
-
And to think we haven't reached March yet.
-
We’re hopeful that Jodi Jones’ performance could kick-start the results Notts require, but we can’t rely on just one player. The defence needs to step up, but regardless, it’s been a good season for Jodi Jones in terms of attack.
-
its great to see his assists, i love watching jodi going forward and this season is one for him to remember for sure.

Apart from the National League, would you consider the Premier League to be the subsequent most challenging division in which to achieve success? I am not referring to the quality of play, but rather the difficulty in accomplishing objectives.
Additionally, why do you believe that English managers are increasingly being disregarded for top-flight positions, particularly towards the higher end of the standings?
For instance, Eddie, who many might have expected to struggle whilst adapting to a wealthier club like Newcastle United. Nonetheless, it is invigorating to observe his performance.
When Newcastle United dismissed Steve Bruce, they might have opted for any manager, but they selected Eddie Howe. What are your thoughts on this matter?

@Robbie Agreed, Luton are a club that build as a team, play as a team and win, lose or draw as a team.
Alf Ramsay won the World Cup in 66 by selecting players because they fit in to his team not because of how good an individual was.
Alex Ferguson also built a team. Bringing through the class of 92 and making them as one. Neville, Keane, Becks, Scholes all those guys say that they were a family and Fergie bought them together. That's why they became so good. Yes, it was a superstar team but they were also bought down to earth to be a team as opposed to an individual.
It's a benefit having talented individuals in teams but when they don't work as a team, it doesn't quite happen for them. Take the so called "golden generation" of England for example. A star studded line up but never managed to achieve anything when perhaps they should have. Mostly due to the club cliques formed.

People tend to forget that Association Football is a TEAM game. Over the last 20 years or so, the norm has been to buy the best players and get them all to play together. I believe that the top managers think along those lines, but some notable managers of the past built great teams out of, what they would call today, just ordinary players.
Jimmy Sirrel built teams, so did Brian Clough and Bill Shankly was another one.
A modern example was what happened at Leicester a few years ago when they shocked everyone & won the premier league. You couldn't say that Leicester was full of superstars, but they were a great team, that could play together perfectly.
Luton are playing well because they've become a TEAM playing well with each other. I think they have a great chance of staying up.
They constructed teams starting from the back, with a solid keeper, defense, hardworking midfielder, and clinical forwards. They identified what was lacking, regardless of age, and integrated their style into their envisioned way of playing. Brian Clough had Pete Taylor, a great player spotter. Jimmy Sirrel focused on homegrown players and coaching to fulfill potential. Nowadays, clubs emphasise ability and, more recently, statistics.
-
i think all of the english leagues are difficult, the national leagues a joke with only two promotions and one of those being via the playoffs. harrogate and sutton dont realise how special their achievements are. league two this season has shown its difficult but hopefully we can start to steady and go on to improve next season. with four teams going up its not as hard as it could be.
league one is quite a stretch if you dont have the money to invest in the players. i think once we do get back there we will need a few seasons just to establish ourselves so that we dont come back straight down to league two.
the championship has to be our dream for any team but you need to have the right balance of finances and good enough players. i think its likely teams will do a us or yeovil.

There are still many points up for grabs, and despite our poor form, we haven’t slipped too far. Not as far as the club could have, which is a silver lining. Being just 4 points away from a turnaround and considering how tight the League Two table is, there’s a chance for things to improve under Stuart Maynard. Sadly, a lot of this hinges on whether Notts can keep most fans on board and steer clear of the looming cloud of doom. I believe the team still has the potential to secure victories, but the recurring issue of conceding goals is a concern. There seem to be more factors working against the club’s chances of reaching the playoffs than in favour. Regardless, we should be grateful to be back and feel more content than most teams that have just returned to the English Football League.

I don’t believe we’re in the running for the playoffs, I could be wrong but at this point, I just want to see improvements in our defence and results. I don’t want the club to chase the playoffs in theory, but continue to struggle with results and consequently slide further down the table due to nerves and a combination of what’s actually happening. We need to ease the pressure on Stuart Maynard and hopefully, the board will heed his suggestions on how to enhance the playing squad because I doubt he would have wanted to sign Jatta himself.

So it's the 29th February today. We are in a Leap year, when those who have their birthday today is a very special day.
Follows is an explanation why we have a Leap Year every 4 years.
-
I was born in the very bad winter of 1946/47,not a leap year ,but that's another story.My old Ram supporting mate, Gordon, shares my birthday but is one year younger.Apparently if he had been born an hour later he would be celebrating his 19th birthday today.
-
I think leap year day should be a bank holiday. I did an extra day's work on Thursday without any extra pay, and we even had to do actual work and not just muck around all day. It's just not on.
Also, I went to school with someone born on leap year day, so by my count she'll be about ten now.
-
i think the way seasons are going and the current weather, months will make their own mind up on what is summer and what is not. but leap years are interesting, things like this and turning the clock hour backwards. at what people did someone figure these out?

I'm a huge fan of John Bostock, but he hasn't performed well lately, and he doesn't seem to be the same player without Matt Palmer. I don't want to unfairly single him out, as most players are responsible for our recent poor form. I'm curious if other fans think the absence of a reliable replacement makes it harder to bench Bostock.

Well, he was rested for most of the game and I actually think that Jim did a half decent job and was one of our better performers. It certainly showed after he went off as there was nobody trying to organise or encourage.
-
Jim O’Brien did provide a temporary solution, but I don’t believe we can depend on him or David McGoldrick to address our deficiencies solely based on their past experiences. John Bostock has the potential to be an excellent player. I believe it would be a top priority to help him regain his best form as he provides significant support in our defence.

Notts travel to Bradford on a Saturday hoping to make amends. How many links can we find between the two clubs.
I’m going to throw out an unusual link Colin Slater started his journalistic career reporting on Bradford City before he became Mr. Notts County.
If that link is a bit tenuous how about that old Notts favourite Mark Stallard who played for both clubs during his career.
Who can come up with more links?

Dele Adebola, Paul Bolland, François Zoko, Stephen Darby, Delroy Facey, Richard Liburd, Wes Thomas, Garry Thompson, Alan Sheehan, Ricky Ravenhill, Gary MacKenzie all played for both teams. I wanted to put Gary Liddle to, but someone beat me.

He should intensify his training efforts and hope for a win this weekend. The atmosphere around the club has become unpleasant, and some fans are exacerbating the situation. Currently, the focus should be on long-term stability rather than short-term gains. In the National League, the ability to sign players at any time supported our improvements and addressed existing weaknesses. Until the end of this season, Maynard or whoever is the manager can only make do, and the right working environment is crucial.

That's a great point. The owners didn't get much wrong in NL but it certainly helped that we could bring new faces in right until the end of March. January was a poor window for incomings although not losing anyone important was a huge bonus.

This is our first season back in the football league and there are several areas where we need to get better. Notts had a fantastic start which saw them climb to the top, but there are reasons for our current struggles. For me, it’s not about Stuart Maynard. I think Luke Williams leaving, in retrospect, is a tough situation to handle and even though Maynard seems like a good replacement, the players are undoubtedly under a lot of mental stress which could affect their concentration. Right now, we’re in a bit of a dip, but I believe Notts can start to climb again. However, it will need us fans who are ready to look past the disappointment.

I would like to wish my old mate and sparring partner @super_ram a very happy birthday. I hope you have a brilliant day, sorry your favourite team lost last night and Derby did too.
