Woohoo, not only have we reached our 35 post goal for today, we have smashed it.

This is the first time I have seen us reach the goal. Hopefully we can do this much more often.

Hopefully nobody minds, here's some with the group I usually travel with during away games. Good laugh!





Always good to make sure days can be made better! I actually normally don't drink, though yesterday I was glad I did.. hehe

I didn't realise it had so much content. My word, totally impressed. Have any of you had a look at the calendar?

Did anyone else get half the contents of the Notts County shop for Christmas?



Doesn't seem to let me post a photo from my tablet

This is a shock transfer, I suppose not so much if you read the reports on how much he's expected to earn but still it proves what today's football is like. Toronto aren't even remotely like Spurs, who have gotten themselves into a shaky situation. On paper they've signed some gems from the fee obtained by selling Gareth Bale but sadly it's too quick, they've also missed the impact of two of their key players this season and one of which is in fact this very man.

If this goes ahead (I'm not sure if it as yet)... They've got themselves a cracking player, who should score for fun over in the states.

Worst case scenario is, he get's injured and ends up like Joe Cole - Still, this won't make him rethink.
 

Tottenham striker Jermain Defoe could become the highest-paid player in MLS if he joins Toronto FC.
 
The England international is set to earn a basic $150,000 per week at BMO Field, with the Ontario club set to fork out an MLS-record transfer fee in the region of $13million for his services according to reports.
 
The fee trumps that spent by Seattle Sounders to take Clint Dempsey from Spurs in August, as the Reds look to make a statement in the MLS off-season.
 
Toronto, currently managed by Defoe's former Spurs teammate Ryan Nelsen, are looking to transform their squad, having finished 17th in the Supporters Shield in 2013.
 
They have already allowed United States midfielder Bobby Convey, former Dutch international Danny Koevermans and ex-Wales striker Rob Earnshaw to depart as they look to clear the decks.
 
And the expectation is that Defoe will arrive as one of their three Designated Players - the other two spots having recently been filled by new signing Gilberto and Argentine midfielder Matias Laba.

Full Story: Here - Thoughts?

does anyone know if there is any quality freebies available or will be in january?

lets discuss possible free signings.

I mean players by the way!

After reading that Liddle might be out for a perlonged period, I think maybe it's time shaun released a few of the players who haven't contributed and tried to wrangle a few players coming in which he owns rather than loans.

Thoughts on who to release and why?

Firstly, what a BRILLIANT username! Full points here for creativity, I like it!

Welcome to Pride of Nottingham @Mind your McManus, I'm very glad you've joined us and I also hope to see you contribute when you get time (even if it's just to see this username). I've heard many stories of keeping ability, I still have one of those old player cards my Grandfather gave to me as a child of Eric's.

Well I hope you drop by sometime to say hello, it would be nice to hear from you. See you around the community!

After it being mentioned on the Derry thread I thought it would be a nice way to welcome in the new year with a quick recall of some of the managers we've had in recent memory. For me it goes back to Jimmy and obviously nobody has come close since, but we've had a few lame ducks!

talking about 'having a few' Howard Kendall at the Lane. What a waste of money on his wages and his drinks bill that was!

A good manager is normally judged by overall championship wins eg Warnock and big Sam, but as I mentioned in another post, Mick Walker was always the manager who could have done so much, but wasn't allowed to by Pavis. Mick is still a favourite of mine just because he believed in his philosophy and it looked like it was well on the way to working (Unlike CK!)

This Sunday's fixtures:

Watford v Queens Park Rangers

Wigan Athletic v Burnley

Coventry City v Oldham Athletic

Wolves v Leyton Orient

Burton Albion v Newport County

Torquay United v Exeter City

All games are Sunday 3pm kick offs.

Good luck everyone

Hi Nesh,

I hope you enjoy being here and join in posting on the forums.

I see Derby had a good away win today, that should make our Mr. Ram a happy chappy.

I know it's early days but what's your assessment of McClaren's tenure so far @super_ram?

Afternoon all.  I've been reading on-and-off for a little while, but only just made my first post.  So, er, hello.

I'm a kind-of exile from NCMad - member there for years and years but never posted much - about 800 posts in something like 8 years, just a lurker really (and occasional Twitter/Mailing List contributor), so there are a few names here I recognise.

Anyway, good to be here. 

In-form youth team striker Colby Bishop has earned a scholarship with Notts County Football Club after an impressive trial.

Bishop has scored a remarkable nine goals in four appearances for the youth team.

This is the Boxing Day round, so first of all I'd like to wish you all a very happy Christmas Remember to check back here on Friday the 27th for round 23's fixtures.

Boxing Day Fixtures:

Huddersfield Town v Derby County

Leicester City v Reading

Bradford City v Rotherham United

Colchester United v Stevenage

AFC Wimbledon v Southend United

Morecambe v Fleetwood Town

Good luck everyone
