  1. Renewing my season ticket was an absolute must for me. I was on it like a car bonnet, making sure to sort it out just a few days after they became available. There’s not a chance I’d miss out on the opportunity to cheer on my team and soak up the buzz for another season. I’m a die-hard fan through and through!
  2. I’m happy to play against either Boreham Wood or Bromley. It would be great if Chesterfield falters, but I have a feeling it will be us facing them in the final.
  3. Great news! Adam Chicksen has been brilliant this season. He has contributed with goals, assists and man of the match performances. He clearly has a strong relationship now with the players and coaching staff. Luke Williams has brought the best out of a solid left back. The 2-year deal is great to retain such a player as the club tries to move forward again. Although defensively he could be better at times, when he’s fully fit and not fatigued he’s outstanding!
  4. Recently, I’ve found that the only games I have time for are Notts games. Most other sports have lost their appeal to me and don’t have the same inviting feeling or lure that Meadow Lane has. There’s something special about attending a football match, a real sense of pride that I don’t get from other sports.
  5. Adam Chicksen has had a remarkable season for Notts County and is dedicated to helping his teammates improve. He has decided to stay at the club for another two years, thanks in part to the leadership and values of his coach, Luke Williams. Frank Vincent has also been making a strong impression since returning from his loan spell. With such a strong team mentality, it’s no surprise that Notts County has been successful this season
  6. I'd like to extend my heartfelt congratulations to Wrexham on their remarkable triumph in the 2022-23 National League campaign! The team's outstanding performance is a testament to their hard work, dedication, and skill, from the players to the coaching staff and everyone behind the scenes. Wrexham has truly proved themselves to be a formidable team this season, with their consistent displays, attacking flair, and never-give-up spirit being a joy to watch. They have demonstrated that they have the ability to compete at the highest level, and this title win is a fitting recognition of their efforts. Credit must also go to the fans of Wrexham, whose unwavering support has undoubtedly played a part in driving the team forward to this momentous achievement. I offer my sincerest congratulations once again to Wrexham on their National League title win. It's a victory that will be remembered for years to come, and I wish them all the best for the future as they continue to achieve great things. @DangerousSausage In the era of Mohamed Al Fayed, Fulham recruited talent from the old First Division and Premier League under the leadership of Kevin Keegan, and managed to elevate their position from what is currently known as League One (the old Second Division).
  7. Notts County should play a strong game against York City. Matt Palmer is a key player who holds the ball and distributes it without fuss. If Macaulay Langstaff starts, he should have plenty of efforts on goal. Aden Baldwin, Kyle Cameron and whoever joins them at the back need to work tirelessly to remain alert. Keeping a clean sheet with few efforts on goal would be a big confidence boost going into the playoffs. Arron Nemane, Adam Chicksen, Sam Austin and Ruben Rodrigues will be priorities with the creative aspects. And if needs be, Luke Williams can wrestle each match official to the ground and chase them off if their decision making turns out to be poor. That’s one way to keep the game fair!
  8. Looks like Luke Williams is not only a great manager but also a skilled deer chaser! The players must be feeling confident knowing their coach can handle anything that comes their way - even if it's a deer on the training ground. Let's hope they can carry this agility and persistence into their match against York City at the weekend!
  9. Jim O’Brien’s experience and attitude on the field are truly something special. He brings a level of skill and determination that can’t be taught. His passion for the game and his drive to succeed set him apart from the rest. It’s clear that his experience has shaped him into the player he is today, and his attitude is a reflection of his dedication to the sport.
  10. At 3-2, one might have thought “here we go again” as we’ve experienced similar collapses in previous seasons. But this squad is different. Maidstone United deserve credit for not giving up. From the highlights, it could have easily been a hammering for them, but they turned it into a real game.
  11. This season has been an absolute joy to watch. If it wasn’t for Notts and Wrexham being so closely matched in their battle for the National League title, it could have been just another run-of-the-mill season. But credit must be given where it’s due, to Luke Williams, the squad and our owners. And let’s not forget Ryan Reynolds, who has shown himself to be a true gentleman with his gracious comments about Notts. He seems to have his heart in the right place.
  12. @CliftonMagpie, you’ve provided so much detail that my brain is doing the cha-cha! @super_ram, I am loving it. If you could see me right now, you’d wonder why my tash is doing the tango. ????
  13. If Notts were to pile the pressure on Maidenhead, causing them a nightmare and scoring 8 goals but still not winning the league, it would sum up this club in a nutshell. I don’t see Wrexham losing, so I think the focus should be on putting together a convincing display that eases Luke Williams’ mind and shows the fans that the club is focused for the playoff run. It will be incredibly important to avoid defeats in the final two games, as confidence and morale are always big factors when it comes to achieving promotion. No doubt Maidenhead will want to try to spoil our run.
  14. I have faith in Luke Williams, to lead us to victory. One way he could take the pressure off our team going into the playoffs is by teaching the players to apply high-pressing techniques when defending. This not only increases the pressure on the opposition but also improves our work rate, concentration and attitude to defending . I believe this could be a game-changer for us and I can’t wait to see Notts in action.
  15. Despite being lightweight, I actually thought his skill surpassed anything I had seen from a player his age. I believed he would mature, gain muscle and become an exceptional player for someone. I remember his pace being very fast, as he had a good technique where he could make faint touches and still cruise past someone. In the pre-season games he played, it wasn’t far-fetched to claim he could be a world-beater. It’s just unfortunate it wasn’t meant to be.
  16. For a young player, he appeared acceptable - albeit slightly thin and lacking in strength. Though not quite on par with Stanley Aborah, I believed he had potential.
  17. This is right up my alley. Based on what @liampie has written, I would assume that his career peaked in the 90s since he would have been young before that. Did this striker happen to make it big with his local team or a team from the area where he was born? Can you give us a clue about his qualities as a striker? Playing for 20 clubs could mean he wasn't very good, but that wouldn't limit him much since Notts has had some awful forwards over the years.
  18. I believe what makes our club unique is its rich history and strong community spirit. Notts County is the oldest professional football club in the world, and we have a deep-rooted connection to our local community that is unrivaled by many other clubs. Our fans are incredibly passionate and dedicated, and we have a strong sense of identity and pride in our club's heritage. Moreover, Notts County has had its fair share of ups and downs over the years, but we have always managed to bounce back stronger. Our club has a never-say-die attitude, and we never give up, no matter what challenges we face. This resilience and determination are what makes Notts County stand out and inspires our fans to support the team through thick and thin.
  19. Well, the players have the ability to perform both quickly and slowly. Some would argue that a faster pace is best, but I think in difficult games, it's much better to carefully pass the ball around. Matt Palmer should definitely be in your list, @TheSkipper. He's barely put a foot wrong all season and, in fact, since he joined the club. If there's a chance that it might be harder to create opportunities, then Luke Williams may need to consider playing with a second striker, as one is very limiting up top. I don't think Macaulay Langstaff can do it on his own for 90 minutes without some bits of quality thrown his way. It's a tricky situation, but I'm sure Williams will figure it out. After all, he's got a great team behind him.
  20. Ah, it's where I'm going wrong, you see. I just love a bit of banter! There are many members whose opinions I actually like to read, but that's about as far as it goes. I've met Chris on a number of occasions, and I don't know if he realises this, but I respect his passion for the club. Other than that, I don't know anyone on the site. Sure, there are a few folks I go to games with, but these days, I'm dragging more people to matches who aren't into football. I guess it's just the way it is, I'm a bit of a lone wolf on the forums. But hey, I'm not one to complain. As they say, it's quality over quantity, right? And I've got quality banter for days.
  21. Well, I would imagine that the United States will seek to file the most severe charges. It is not very wise to do so. I mean, leaking them in his videos is one thing, but putting the whole documents out there without covering your tracks seems to be a very foolish move.
  22. Now that Woking is out of the picture, I don't expect to see many players being rested. Luke Williams may wait until the final home game against York City to throw a few surprises. By doing this, I think he will maintain the current form and then have a break before the first playoff game. I would have thought that some players would be rested, but I believe Williams still secretly has his eyes on the title. That may explain his recent post-match press conference.
  23. Do not worry, @Dry Nelson Ray Notts is a small club in terms of its current position. It is a big club in the National League, but as far as the media is concerned, there is no bigger club than Wrexham at the moment.
  24. I also choose Matt Palmer; he has been among the most significant acquisitions in recent seasons. He is a significant upgrade over Jake Reeves and is a player who performs a lot of the unglamorous work, frequently without recognition. His playing style, passing ability, and superb ball control make it incredibly tough for teams to break down Notts. He is by far the most consistent player and, judging by Luke Williams' decision, appears to be one of the first names on the team sheet.
  25. Not only does it put Macaulay Langstaff on the map, but it also highlights many positives from the club's perspective. It demonstrates that we have innovative players, which may influence other prospective signings. It shows that the club is progressing, recruiting well and is a desirable location for talented upcoming players. I believe it will also impact the current players. Although I am not yet considering his departure, if he does leave, we should receive a premium that can be reinvested in the team.
