What do you think about food and drink prices at the lane?

Cracking game so far. Home team on top, but Obika candidate for miss of season, rounded keeper 8 m out shot wide.

Here's a story about a Notts fan who is over in Kenya doing aid work. - Article Here

Please read, share and like. It's such a positive message, not only from the clubs point of view but for the people these changes help. It's amazing work!

I've had the pleasure of meeting many Notts fans who help by doing charity work, we have more than you people realize.

My question for the PoN community, have you ever done any charity work? Let's share our stories and discuss. You Pies!

Do we have are "own" pub in town?, afew lads from work are "reds" and say the "royal children" pub is a f@r&st pub.

After the success of this thread last home game, I wanted to ask the community what questions you would like me to ask Notts Fans for the next meet the fans video?

As last time, you will get a shout out in the video (assuming you are happy with this)

Just over a minute to watch here, thoughts on the highlights?

Yesterday we decided to have a spontaneous trip to Leicester, which turned out to be very pleasant despite the rain back home. Now we was thinking of going to Newark again, perhaps surprise some family members which I haven't seen for awhile but I felt this would be unfair to my Aunt Daisy (not really my aunt but my Grandfathers Sister).

On the train we met and spoke to a conductor called "Martin".

He really took a shine to our children, especially @super_pie which I will add really helped cheer him up. Martin told Jake some jokes, he asked some questions between doing his job. He seemed very interested and pleased to see a family of "Notts County" fans traveling to Leicester.

Now one of the questions he asked went like.... "Notts County receive a special and very expensive gift each year without delay, do you know what it is?"

He then told Jake the story about Juventus and the famous "Black & White Shirt".

The answer to the question was each year Juventus donate a signed shirt by every player so that Notts can auction it off for charity. Now, I do recall hearing about this but I thought it was a one off. Just very interesting to see the story told and having met someone very kind like Martin.

Is this true? Anyone heard it? Thoughts and Opinions?

@Italian Magpies @erindoors - Can you shed any light on this? I am really interested in this. We're hoping to track Martin down and keep in contact.
 

This Saturday's Fixtures:

Leeds United v Wolves

Middlesbrough v Watford

Preston North End v Fleetwood Town

Swindon Town v Colchester United

Plymouth Argyle v Cheltenham Town

Shrewsbury Town v Portsmouth

Exciting news! Not sure if anybody has seen this yet, but former Notts County defender Guy Branston is now involved in a website that provides a platform for players to showcase their talents – www.allaboutballerz.com

Fantastic to see a former professional providing a resource for grassroots and professional players; he’s also welcoming new investors should anybody involved in the game wish to get behind the project – email [email protected]

Who was your man of the match? Please vote and leave your thoughts.

As it says really.

I'm not Scottish so have no pre-formed opinion here. 

On face value I hope they do leave the UK. It will make Whitehall sit up and take note!

Round two... Ding, ding!

This one will not be the same as the last time we played them, the new manager effect will need to be factored in and again they have some very talented players. I do believe our form should see us through this game though, we just need to sort the defence out.

If we can avoid the shaky start, I can see us getting a couple against them.

0-2 Notts win.

Thoughts? Will you be going? Let us know.. #discuss

Hi everyone.

I am currently doing a university project to design safe standing for football grounds. As part of this I need to find out how popular safe standing would be and what people associate with it.
I have created a short survey which I was hoping you could all fill out to help me. (8 multiple choice questions)

https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/Safe_standing

Before you start the survey I would like to apologise as I have messed up a bit on question 7 and 8, they are supposed to be multiple choice but it only allows one answer. For question 7 if you would have chosen multiple answers please tick "other" and type in the numbers of the answers you would have chosen. for number 8 please choose where you would most like to see a safe standing section.

Thank you
William Tuck

With Jordan Cranston rightly being given an 18 month extension and Shaun Harrad looking likely that he'll get the same sort of deal surely we should be giving big Roy another 18 months before someone else does!!

Just stuck my head on the other site, and saw this

http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/news-and-comment/simon-hart-shaun-derry-drew-on-his-bad-experiences-with-qpr-to-crack-the-whip-and-save-notts-county-9815056.html

We've signed the young lad Michael Petrasso who we was heavily linked with last season. It's another "emergency" deal which will last for three months, good move by the club!

Thoughts?

Welcome to @Cllaire 10 and @Piety.I hope you enjoy our site.

so, after a breathtaking and very satisfying win at oakwell, attention turns to our next fixture.  avoiding the obvious expletive pun, we're up against the team that gave Ian "Beefy" Botham his break in football.  surprisingly bottom of the league and have recently relieved their title-winning manager of his duties.

i'll open the links with a hattrick of easy starters - jonathan forte, ian baraclough and karl hawley.

over to you...

The half time scores-

                                           Colchester United 0- 0 Sheffield United

                                           Oldham Athletic 0 - 2 MK Dons

                                           Preston North End 1- 2 Rotherham United

                                           Stevenage 1 - 0 Crewe Alexandra

                                           Swindon Town 0-0 Crawley Town

So far so good for @BradtheMiller.What about the other scores?

Anyone want to see our assistant when he was slightly lighter, slighter hairier and in goal scoring mood for Hull City??

To be fair the last two are top quality strikes, would be good if Greg himself could talks us through them one day

Also note a certain Roy Carroll performing heroics in goal for Hull in the third video

Enjoy

I totally missed this, yet despite it being belated - I did want to wish @weymouthPIE many happy returns. I am hopeful Notts and Weymouth will give him an excellent birthday present, I would count Tuesday's win but I think more will come on Saturday.

Hope you had a great day Wey!

Hopefully catch up with you mate sometime during the season.

PS. I am surprised @super_ram didn't notice!

Our own Gary Thompson on has been recognised by EA in FIFA 15 Ultimate Team by being included in this week's team of the week beside Aguero and Sneider (albeit on the bench).

http://www.easports.com/fifa/ultimate-team/news/2014/team-of-the-week

This means that there is now a limited version of Thompson in the game where his stats are increased, making him more valuable to trade:

Hopefully there will be lots more Notts "in form" cards in the future!
