Vlog: ARLukomski - Late Drama at Meadow Lane as Notts County Rescue a Point
I was hoping you would, but at the same time I would have understood. Good vlog, thanks @ARLukomski.

Straight Red Cards For Serious Foul Play
The tackles are not the important part now; what matters is wishing the Gateshead player well and a full recovery to playing.

Weekly Chat 19th - 25th August
I have been volunteering in my community for the past couple of days, and I have found it enjoyable. Tomorrow, I will be heading to Meadow Lane.

Why Forest’s Premier League status has been beneficial for Notts.
I believe that casual supporters are the first to drift away when times are tough, so focusing on short-term gains may be less beneficial in the long run. While some may become dedicated fans, we should concentrate on highlighting the benefits our club provides while maximising what Forest's status can bring.

Jodi Jones: Players Player Of The Year.
I'm unsure why Notts themselves didn't recognise Dan Crowley on social media. Jodi Jones received the spotlight, which is disappointing as they both deserved their awards.

One touch football Leicester v Spurs
Jamie Vardy did well. His age and speed may have influenced the shot, but it was a fantastic break.

Wangiri Phone scam
I received a strange voice message that I couldn't grasp. It didn't sound Chinese, but it didn't seem Japanese either. It seemed to be from somewhere in Asia, but it was very faint. I simply deleted the message.

Iconic landmark maybe, Ratcliffe-on-Soar Power Station to close
They appear unattractive and emit a lot of smoke; if they were constructed in the last 10-15 years, people would likely gripe about them being unsightly. Wind turbines have the potential to look appealing and create minimal noise, yet people still grumble. I don't believe relying solely on one solution is appropriate; incorporating some renewable energy would be beneficial, but exploring other options would also be advantageous.

Match Preview: Notts County Seek First Win Against Grimsby Town
I believe it will be a decent game, but I don't believe we will witness more than 3 goals on this occasion.

David McGoldrick: Ready and Waiting to Shine at Notts County
Considering he's in the later stages of his career, I don't reckon he'll be starting matches frequently. However, there's no reason why he couldn't influence games as a substitute. Young players find it tough to get game time, so at least he's been getting minutes on the pitch. I am confident that he will receive more playing time as the season progresses.

Jacob Bedeau. Who is He?
I like the effort writing this, it's a good read and I agree with comments before me that he looks like a very capable defender. I do think his speed and ability are unmatched from what I have seen so far.

Where are they now : Fabian Speiss
I don't remember him, but he probably was the keeper when I was either not born or really young. Possibly when I was little. Who did Notts to replace him?

The Nest/Fan Zone: Update.
I hope it does well tomorrow and helps to thin things out ahead of the game.

Volleys...for the weekend
It takes a level of skill and technical ability to hit volleys so perfectly. I enjoyed watching those goals.

Matchday parking
Are you all sorted now? I’m sure someone in the community could help. Good luck.

Ken Aboh to Notts County on loan?
I don’t have much of an opinion on him as a player, but I hope it works out. If we do go for him, I hope he brings quality to the team. It would be disappointing to loan a young player and possibly sell Dan Crowley though.
-
Macaulay Langstaff Watch.
Millwall need to stick with playing Macca. Having him in and out won’t help, and dropping him won’t either. He’ll start to succeed if they give him time.

Notts County Academy Watch.
I hope the youth keep getting support, they could be our future.

Riots
I don’t like how the media portrays peaceful protesters as rioters and makes it seem like they’re all 14 to 18 years old. From the videos I’ve seen, most of them look more like 18 to 22 year olds.

Conor Grant Excited for Meadow Lane Debut: 'The Pitch Looks Beautiful'
He seems like a solid League Two player, and his experience from Barnsley could be valuable. I hope he keeps performing well—it's always great to see a new Notts signing make a good start.

Match Preview: Magpies Target Early Season Win Against Fleetwood Town
A good opening home game, but Fleetwood can be tricky and turn games around when they get going. Hopefully, Notts will stay strong in defence and keep them quiet.

Castel di Sangro, the rise and fall of a small town Italian team
Did they fold in 2005 because they threw a game while playing at their peak in '96? ???? Was it because fans were unhappy and stayed away, or a combination of factors related to that poor decision?

Fake Football Merchandise.
Trading standards should intercept the shirts upon delivery, but I don't believe clubs should pursue the fans. Buying fake shorts isn't right, but it could inadvertently end up in the possession of unsuspecting buyers.

6000 Season Tickets Sold
It's wonderful to see a large number of season tickets being sold. I really like the information card that accompanies the season tickets. It's a clever touch that makes it feel personalised to you, even though it's not. I am pleased that the club has surpassed 6,000 season ticket sales.

Dan Crowley to MK Dons?
With one year remaining, ensure Notts extends his contract and also recruit a striker who can capitalise on Dan Crowley's creativity. This would be fantastic news for us Notts supporters, but the worst scenario would be if the club decided to sell him.
