This subject comes up every season. But surely some thing has to happen? 

With the Ladies now coming on to it as well. Are we waiting for the Rugby Club to depart in 2015? I know Mr Trew is not happy with the Contract and i can see a Big boot coming next year. 

Quite embarrassing, If we play on a bog with the ladies on TV.........actually Ladies in mud...................       

I see that the Notts County Ladies team have signed two England players.

They are to play their games in the summer months at Meadow Lane (god help the pitch) but there are only 8 in the league they are playing in so they will play 7 homes games, they can't play in black and white stripes because the black block on the back of the shirt somehow clashes with the referees, so they will play in Notts present away shirts.

I'm not sure of admission prices but would you consider going to support the ladies. (No jokes about swapping shirts after the game please).

I think I might give it a go if I wasn't camping or anything it might stave off the feeling of "cold turkey" I get when there is no football. Although having said that there will be the world cup starting in June of course.

Hello, fellow football fans!

I am here as part of my research into a new project, looking at ways to help supporters reduce the cost off attending modern day football.

Would you mind taking a moment to complete the attached simple survey.

We are looking at potential ways to help football supporters reduce theirs costs of attending football matches and your responces would give us valuable feeback on what is important to fans who do travel to games, home and away, however often.

Many thanks.

Looks like I will be ok to go back Vs Tranmere. Can't wait, not the same listening to the radio.

I'm hopeful that even if Notts do suffer the drop they will stick with Derry & Abbott and rebuild the club for a serious attempt to 'do a Cardiff' and storm through the league

but

if that didn't happen

if Notts suffered a drop into the Conference

would you still support them?

If not, where would you go to get your fix? Be honest, would it be the City Ground?

Who do you regard as a club you might support if there was no Notts and travel was no object?

In a way I suppose this is two questions. 

I've only just noticed this feature at the bottom of the forum, can everyone like this post because I want to overtake @Cobby whose video Notts v Coventry post is top at the moment.

Ian here, Rotherham fan (who posts on here). Thought you'd be interested in my pics from my trip to St James Park last night for the Toon v Spurs......

I've just heard on the radio that Nottinghamshire school children will no longer be allowed to visit the county's nature reserves because of the problem of dog faeces being left on paths.

This really annoys me, we used to take 4 children to and from school and it was a nightmare steering the kids round dog poo on the pavement so they don't step in it.

Some of the ones that do pick it up then think it's a good idea to hang the bag in the nearest tree like some bizarre decoration.

It's time these irresponsible dog owners were punished with really hefty fines.

Rant over, I'd better stop before I blow a gasket.

I've just watched most of the prematch interview on MP...my battery gave up the ghost before I got right to the end, but I'm sure I heard the interviewer say something about the comments Kenny Jackett made about us after watching us on Saturday as the Wolves game was postponed.  He's supposed to be complimentary about us, but I can't find his comments anywhere.  I googled it and watched a video but all he said was we were fighting for our lives. 

I'm sure the interviewer said that it was a comment about us being an excellent footballing team in a false league position, but I couldn't hear too well.

Has anyone read or heard this, and if so, can you provide a link please?

This morning @tonyhateley posted a rant about dog mess and @GrannyPie asked him not to start me off with things that annoy me.She went on to mention people stepping in front of me when I'm pushing her in the wheelchair.This is very common even when just walking by myself.She went on to list impatient people,queue jumpers,Forest fans,the weather,out of control kids with parents who couldn't care less and people speaking too loud while on a mobile phone..

 I can add stupid rules about parents/children's holidays in term time and what can go in school lunch boxes.I could go on forever but what does everyone else think.Are there any more members about to join @Super_Ram and @tonyhateley's Grumpy Club?

We all desperately hope that Notts keep their League 1 status although, as I've said, I can't rate our chances better than 50/50. Those games that others had over us unfortunately seem to be turning into more points than you would hope for. Bristol C especially seem to have rallied and I see them pulling clear.

So my question is this:

If Notts are to survive then name me four clubs that are likely to take the fall this season. Whatever four I come up with I can list three certain fallers, but the fourth in my reckoning is Notts. We have no consistency whereas Cotterill is now drilling that into Bristol. 

 

Wolves step-up interest in Celtic's Callum McGregor as Notts County hope for loan deal.

 

Notts County's hopes of keeping Callum McGregor at Meadow Lane took a further blow today after Wolves stepped-up their interest in the Celtic midfielder.

The Post understands Kenny Jackett is preparing a £750,000 swoop for the Magpies' top scorer who has bagged 12 goals while on loan from the Hoops.

It is believed Celtic were originally keen on a straight swap deal with Wolves for Scottish international Leigh Griffiths which the League One side were cool on.

They are now said to be readying a straight cash bid for the 20-year-old who has become a hot property during the transfer window.

I'm not happy about this, although I have had time to digest the news. It's very likely that McGregor won't be coming back to us, so I really hope someone else places a big and temps him a way from a rival League One team.

Thoughts?

Okay, so we've seen our former Member of the Month's struggle adjusting back to life after the award.

However, please do spare a thought for me. I can't shake off Google Mobile!


At least I feel missed! Not quite sure what it's obsession is with liking my articles.

On the 'Things that annoy you' topic notts-joe posted this reply-

Rude people - I honestly believe people should be kind and considerate.

Loud music - Just no need, if you can't hear it well... USE Headphones! Why should I be forced to listen to it?
Parents who swear and belittle their children - We all know the type.
People who put down others (especially those with disabilities).
Children who are out of control and their parents do nothing or aren't interested.

I could be here all day but these days I'd rather focus on the things which make me happy.

I must say it's better not to dwell on annoying things,move on and concentrate on the good things in life.

So let's BE more positive-What things make you happy?

I'll start of with Rams winning(Ecstatic when it's 'that lot) and Notts winning too.

Time with family and friends-especially grandkids.

A nice walk pushing Granny on a lovely warm day followed by a meal and a drink or two in a nice friendly pub.

Interacting with other PoN members.

Welcome to our site @Partizan Pat.Please join in posting and let us all get to know you.We're a friendly bunch.

Yesterday was our youngest grandson's birthday.He's the son of @William 1984 & Harrys_mummy.They went out for a birthday meal yesterday but today was his party. notts-joe,cheeky,super_pie(Jake),Ellie and Ava came round and we had 3 hours of noisy bedlam.Harrys_mummy organised games for the kids which was funny to watch..I didn't care for some of the game prizes that the kids received-WHISTLES & PARTY BLOWERS! (I'd already got a headache)It was nice to see all the grandkids having a good time though.

Really interesting video on the Magpie Player, it focus on Mark Fotheringham speaking about some time he spent with youngsters. Do you have a subscription? You can view it here

He basically talks about how he's doing his level 2 coaching badges, that he spent time shadowing some of the junior coaches and Mick Leonard. He mentioned he's very lucky to be able to lean on Mick because of experience, that youngsters absorb so much information and that he's excited. @ivansneck he even mentioned about how it's interesting to compare how the Germans focus on youngsters.

It received some negative comments and some jokes, yet I personally wouldn't knock it.

For starters he seemed genuinely interested, it would inspire our youngsters (I still recall visits at school by first team members and even Forest's who were mainly reserves). It makes you think "Hey, I can do this!", for any youngster it can be a great confidence boost. It's also good for him as a player, if he takes up coaching it will only benefit those around him.

What are your thoughts?

It's hardly a show that exercises the old cerebellum, but nevertheless I am drawn to it. Noel Edmunds has his share of haters, but he seems a nice enough chap as far as nice chaps go.

Now the question is: did you see today's show? If not, watch it late night.

The guy - Roop Singh - won a big amount (see, didn't want to spoil it for you) and if only his nerve had held it could have been a lot more.

I know Roop from years ago. He is an absolutely top notch person. A true Sikh. You will not find a more honourable bloke and he's so

appreciative of this country. I have seen him face a group of 100 kids or who were less than impressed by his 'foreign' appearance. Within 10 minutes he had them 'eating out of his hand'. Big Leeds fan, but nobody's perfect, Larry.

A person of my intelligence shouldn't like this show, but I do! (Arrogant get).

I do like Bradley Walsh in 'The Chase' too and that does exercise the old intellect. Could beat any of those chasers any day. Well maybe not frosty knickers.  

I have a confession to make and I hope it doesn't make you think any worse of me, I promise I have changed my ways and will never stray again.

In 1959 at the age of 7 my dad took me to see the FA Cup winners (Fword) as they drove down Arkwright Street towards the city centre on an open bus showing off the cup. I remember it vividly I sat on my Dad's shoulders and I clapped and cheered. I don't know why my Dad took me as he wasn't the slightest bit interested in football!

I have had to live with this memory for 54 years and felt it is time to unburden myself in the hope that I can achieve peace of mind at last.

I prostrate myself before you and beg forgiveness.
