WHISTLES BLOWN!

Sounded like a blooming good match for the magpies! Kasper Schmeichel didn't play, but was in the stand with Peter Trembling and Sven-Goran Eriksson. With goals scored by Ravenhill (13), Hunt (45), Wright (o.g 50) and Westcarr (90).

All in all the promising start to the season continues!

News about a new signing....

SVEN-Goran Eriksson has brought keeper Kasper Schmeichel to Notts County in what is almost certain to be a club-record deal from Manchester City.

The 22-year-old today signed a five-year deal at Meadow Lane.

Notts were refusing to reveal the fee involved, but it is understood to stretch into seven figures – which would eclipse the £640,000 the Magpies paid for Tony Agana in 1991.

It would be great to hear your views about the signing of a well known player.

Notts County 0 - 1 Doncaster

Doncaster edged an even encounter thanks to James Coppinger's goal to secure a place in the second round of the Carling Cup.

James Coppinger collected a neat pass from Lewis Guy to beat Russell Hoult and put Doncaster ahead with their first shot on target.

The Magpies threw men forward but striker Lee Hughes had a firm effort saved by goalkeeper Benjamin Smith.

And despite late pressure the League Two side could not hit back.

I hear it was good game for us. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/league_cup/8188165.stm

Hit the post twice, I'm not down though. I just wished we could of made it to the second round because those jealous fans will be loving this. Oh well we can focus more on promotion until the fa cup comes!

Tonight we are playing Holland in a friendly and I think it's going to be a good game hopefully some of the younger lads will get a run out and Rooney will chip in with a few goals

Hi guys although I'm not a die hard Magpies fan I like football in general and I think that the best fans in the country are in League 1 and 2.

I am a MANCHESTER UNITED season ticket holder 10 years now but if half our supporters had the enthusiasm that supporters in League 1 and 2 had it would be a great for us

Burnley in premier league, stoke surviving.. man utd's team crumbling, man city trying to be chelsea (will they do any better this year).. Every league is being mixed with sides which should do well, sides under-performing.. cash strapped southampton, charlton.. and I wasn't even going to mention our news!!

Who's excited about the new season?

Yay!! it's started..

Alri mate it's called the Europa League now and not the UEFA Cup

Hi my name is William.

Im a huge Notts County fan, and have been since I was a child and went with my grandad. I have been many times over the last few years with my fiance and nephew.

I am very exceited surrounding the news of County's takeover and the new players we have been signing. I was very impressed with our performance against Bradford.

I look forward to promoting this site and gaining more members.

This will remain for discussion for a few weeks, so I'd like to ask people to cast their views on this poll as it will decide weather or not it's important that we change the old emblem for the new one.

I know many dislike it. (I'm one of those)

Truly because I don't feel it fits our clubs image, no gold or yellow! Plus I've always had a soft spot for the magpies which as always been our focus point as proudly displayed.

However, though I dislike like and feel disappointed it is a big part of our club and it's not based on my feelings alone. It's down to all those who join us here at notts-county.co.uk and whatever the outcome it will be followed. (lets just hope it's not a bore draw!!!)

Hi,

Here's a little bit about myself..

I'm 22, I'm married to cheeky and I live in nottingham and have done all my life. The only places I've been to was france (school trip) and skegness (holiday), so I'm very much a proud brit. Also proud parent of two wonderful children Jake and Ellie

My passion for county started from a young age, my grandfather was football mad and I take a lot after him.

I recall going to some games, especially the anglo italian cup finals (the one we won) was a great game and as well as playoff games which seem long a go. The last season game I went to was back when big same was in charge of us. Sadly I didn't return due to feeling it would be strange with the absents of my grandfather, although I have been meaning to more than once. (I did go to the derby friendly tho)

Hopefully this place will grow as does notts, my passion for this club as been un-channeled for far to long.

I hate these things, I never know what to say!

I'm currently 21 (22 in a matter of weeks:) ) I live in nottingham with my fiance and his parents. We try to go to as many matches as physically possible, especcially while i get my student discount, lol. We're currently expecting our first child aswell...and were excieted to go to the Derby friendly, as it will technically have been baby's first county match. We already have a few notts county bits for buba.

Were also having our wedding and reception at Meadow Lane in May 2010, which should be good. As county fans we felt that it would be a good way of celebrating our love of the club with the rest of our family!

Although I didn't go to the game, I was really impressed by the highlights I caught on the new "The Football League Show". It's a shame we didn't see more than just the goals but I hope to see a live game at some point this season. (provided it's on my off day, unlikely)

For those who went what did you make of the game?

All opinions, comments welcomed..
