Wolves vs Notts County this Saturday (15/02/2014), will you be in attendance?

For opinions on the game please visit - Match Thread

Let PoN know..

Comes up often on MAD and was just interested to hear a few more reasoned views on here.

Lets keep it clean and friendly as I know we will as Colin is a legend whether you feel it is time to retire or not. That's what persuaded me to move from MAD in the first place....all the lack of respect for peers, players and others involved with the club!

All three games are important for us tonight and only Port Vale are doing us a favour.



C'mon Bradford and Orient!!!

In case anyone is interested my team are at home to QPR tonight.The championship's top scorers v the meanest defence.Kick off 7.45 on Sky,Radio Derby and Radio five live.-so no excuse @tonyhateley.

Kenny Burns: New players make a difference, but Notts County must back up result.

Celebration: Alan Sheehan marks making it 3-0 to Notts with Kwesi Appiah. Picture: John Sumpter @ JMS Photography.

It was a great win for Notts County over Coventry.

They played ever so well, scored three good goals and kept a clean sheet.

But for goodness sake, don't praise those players because they start to believe their own hype and they'll go and get a bad result next week.

Obviously, some of the players who have come in have made a difference.

Hayden Mullins scored a very good goal, and Jimmy Spencer's was good too.

They just need to keep their heads down and get on with the next game, because you just hope they can keep it up.

They've got a bit of confidence now but they still have to go out and do the job next week.

They are still in bother but that win has moved them away from the relegation zone a bit.

For any team down there, if you get a win, then it is a big result.

 

In the past, we've seen Notts struggle sometimes because every time they have a good result they've then had a bad result.

I'd like to see them come out and go do the same again.

 

They're not safe at the moment, not by a long way. There's still a long way to go in the season and a lot of teams will get crazy results.

This year, they've had a couple of good results and then not backed it up.

 

I don't know if the players haven't been putting the effort in. If they do put the effort in, then they've shown that's what they can do.

If they don't put the effort in, they get hammered. And they've had a few hammerings this year. At times, they've not even looked like a team.

 

That's not down to the manager; he's as keen as a kid. It's all down to the players and whether they perform when they cross the white line.

 

They've not really done that consistently this year, that's why they're in a mess.

Hi Guys,

I am Lewis and I am a Coventry City supporter! *booooo* ...

I was wondering if you guys could help us, we are currently running a petition and need to reach 100,000 signatures for it to be considered by government!

For those that didn't know, we have been moved 35 miles away from Coventry to Northampton whilst the council and owners Otium(SISU) bicker over the Ricoh Arena. With other issues such as Hull Tigers, Cardiff and now more recently Leeds United we felt a petition was in order for the Government to start to take action!

"

Football is our national game but the interests of fans are being disregarded by club owners and ruling bodies - government action is needed. UK football clubs are not financial franchises: they are rooted in their local communities and are an important part of local identity and heritage. But a new type of club owner is disregarding all that, pricing many people out of the game with inflated ticket and other costs, alienating people by seeking to change clubs’ names, colours and so on. Football's governing bodies are failing to address the situation. We therefore ask that the Department for Culture, Media and Sport Select Committee revisits its work on football governance and illustrates growing problems by undertaking a short Inquiry into one particular club, Coventry City, whose owner has relocated the club from the City of Coventry to Northampton, 35 miles away. This will highlight concerns shared by football fans across the country, and the need for action."

We would greatly appreciate it if you could sign it for us, and share it amoung the wider football family before this mess gets too far! (possibly even make it a sticky on the site?)

Also, during the notts county game, Coventry fans are going to hold "WHY?" signs up at 35 minutes (35 miles from Ricoh Arena, Coventry to Sixfields, Northampton), and we would appreciate it if you would kindly offer your support for this with applause.

Good luck for the rest of the season! - apart from on saturday of course!

Dagenham & Redbridge v Hartlepool. Something to do with it being racism day. Wonder how much they've lost on this. Well done anyway.

It's my pleasure to be  welcoming another new member for the second time today.Welcome aboard @cotton 13.I look forward to you joining in.

Has anyone got BT Sport? I've got it and have watched a few matches it seems they haven't got a very big budget because they do the half time and post match analysis standing pitch side in the pouring rain, I felt really sorry for them.

Old Gary Lineker and Alan Hansen on the beeb don't realise how lucky they are sitting in a nice warm studio.

So I have been speaking with @notts-joe and we were hoping to get some more interactive media on the site.  Here is our first attempt!

Thanks to everyone who agreed to take part!

Hopefully we'll get to do this more often (when the wind isn't as strong)

Since starting PoN I've grown this obsession of spotting fans and anything generally NCFC related. Yet, I've started to see more vehicles with license plates, nice logo imprinted on the windows, scarfs etc.

I spotted this van last Sunday (I cut the registration off due to annoying the owner).



Today, I received a message from a fan from Australia.



And of course, I spotted this (not my picture) of our very own @jurgenpie's car.... I wonder if he plans anything for his motorbike??



My question is - Is there anyone reading this with similar? A car/van etc with Notts somehow incorporated? Perhaps, a house, window, garage @vicki or something else??

Come on share with us! Let us know... You Pies!

Well I like to think so.

It's nice to welcome another new member,@neil faulconbridge especially after today's result.Please join in .Why not tell us a bit about yourself.

They complain about being 'blacked out' by Nottingham Forest, yet if you frequently visit their site. You find this to be very common, I don't like it because if I was interested in the team ignoring them - I would check that section.

Seems silly that they do this, also very disrespectful.



Do they think Notts will actually read? (I'm sure some do)

Welcome to Pride of Nottingham @Spie, nice to see another new member join us today.

Hopefully once you settle and find your feet, you will feel at home. See you around the community!

Sorry to intrude on your forum. I am not a Notts County supporter - I support Reading for my pains. I'm researching a former Reading FC player called Alf West who played one season for Reading in 1909 -10 between two spells with Liverpool. He left Liverpool and joined the Magpies in 1911and he was still a player with you on the outbreak of WW1. I am trying to find information on his military career (particularly the regiment and battalion in which he served) - but with such a common name it is not straightforward. So to cut a few corners I was just wondering whether any of the Notts County faithful might have some information that they would be willing to share with me.

Many thanks in advance.

PS I have been to Meadow Lane (in 2011) on the way to completing the 92

Anyone playing Football Manager?

I'm still playing fm 12, despite having the latest version. (I don't play until the bugs are ironed out) I did start a short version of the new game, which was the youths breaking through and making the team a success and I very much like the direction. I noticed the missing attribute indicator which I will miss.

The version of fm 12, that I am currently playing, I manage West Brom and have taken them back into the Premier League. I have the lower leagues up to the 10th tier and always start with a club lower down, as I prefer to challenge myself. I started off managing Alfreton Town, Mansfield and moved onto Braintree Town, managing them through back to back promotions. My earlier appoints in the game failed down to re-building the team. (I basically buy youths)

My West Brom team is enjoying a successful stint within the league, where my team are easily capable side of finishing within the top 8.

Just wondering how others who play the game are doing, etc. Share your story!

Here's a link to the Cov City petition to help them get their club back. I hope you'll all sign it who are UK residents. Thought their fans put on a good show today.

Apologies if this has been posted somewhere else on PoN, but I'm not great at navigating the site (yet).
