Matchday programmes scrapped
I never bothered with them. So I can't really pass comment. But Matchday Programs always seem part of the experience on Gameday , and there's an awful lot of Avid Collectors out there, who will miss them but if the Club were losing money on producing the Mag it's understandable about them Scrapping it.

Can Notts and Others Make the Leap? A Look at League 2 Promotion Prospects
Good Article. Reading it I think Helps Hammer Home Notts just haven't got what it takes to get them over the Line for Promotion to League 1. Despite the signing of New Players and a Tighter looking Defence (on paper anyway) there just seems to be something Missing from the Notts Make Up, to turn them into Potential Promotion Candidates.

Old Wheelbarrow Repairman's Almanac
Right Thinking Caps On, Crystal Balls Out (No I'm Not An Android) Take off your Rose Tinted Glasses, Live in the Real World and Not a Fantasy Land. Hand on Heart and Be Totally Honest with Yourself. How Do You See This New Season Going For Notts? What Do You Expect From The Team? And What Will Be Notts Final Position in the League 2 Table? My Answers are:- I See A Season of Struggle unless a New Playing System is Adopted. I Expect Better Performances From the Defence. But Not as many Goals this Season. Notts Final Position 14th Again Give or Take a Place.

Cedwyn Scott on being No. 9
As it's been stated before @Robbie Shirt Numbers mean Nothing in the Modern Game. And if Stuart Maynard gave Cedwyn the number 9 shirt it was possibly a Mental tactic, because his Best Mate Macca had the number and look at all the Goals he scored and with Cedwyn now wearing that number Maynard believes that it will Inspire Scott to go on and score a Hatful of Goals. I would hope that Cedwyn Scott is capable of getting into double Figures this season.

So What's Wrong With Notts?
Very True @Robbie Maybe if Maynard is Sacked then Richard Montague will be given the Job as Head Coach. Because I Believe He is the Mastermind behind the way Notts Now Play, there's been enough hints from the Guy. Then if the Magpies continue to Struggle, he'll Get The Sack. We live in Hope.

Away kits revealed
Just a Question. Why Do Notts Need Three Kits Anyway? Surely they should be trying to Save Money, instead of having a Kit Produced they may wear Half-A-Dozen times at the most this Season. Not many Fans are going to be able to buy Three different Coloured Notts Shits ( if they all become available to buy) There is a Cost Of Living Crisis At The Moment. Or aren't certain People at the Club Aware Of That?

So What's Wrong With Notts?
@liampie The thing is Fella will Notts be given time to build a good run of Form. If the Magpies start off badly then the knives are going to be out for Stuart Maynard, Fans are going to be baying for his Blood and should he be Sacked after a couple of months of the season, then it will mean a New Coach coming in and putting his ideas into action ( as long as he's allowed to). That could Result in another season of Mediocrity down the Lane. However there is No Point on holding on to a Coach who is out of his Depth in Hope that things will Improve Results Wise.

Cedwyn Scott on being No. 9
Cedwyn sounds very Positive hopefully he can convert that into goals for the Magpies. If he can score between 10-15, he'll have done well, particularly after listening to the part of the interview, when the Doctor said the injury could be Career ending. Not only does he have to be Physically Fit, but his Mental Health needs to be right, so he doesn't find himself pulling out of certain situations during a match. I would hope Notts have people on their Staff to get Cedwyn over any problems in that Area. One thing else People Don't Expect Him to Score 30 goals this season.

Match Discussion: Game 1 - Super White Army (A)
I hope Notts have put their Dismal Preseason behind them and Don't Carry that form into the League Campaign. Otherwise I see a 3-1 drubbing.

Away kits revealed
Not a Fan of Either. If I had to choose maybe the Blue one. Because an actual Magpie has blue feathers. Always been a Fan of the Black & White stripes would prefer it if Notts play in those colours both Home & Away. For any Colour clash in Away Games a Simple White Shirt. Save the Club money instead of going for Bright Orange. All that's needed now is white shorts and Orange Socks and the players will look like Traffic Cones.

Hopes & Fears for the 2024/25 Season
Positives 1) Chris & Alex still own the Club. 2) Better Defence (on paper anyway) 3) Top Notch Playing Surface. 4) Jatta's looking sharp (hopefully will get into double figure s goal wise) 5) Matty Palmer is getting back to full fitness. (Hope is injury doesn't have any lasting effect on his game) 6) Cedwyn Scott (as above) 7) Hoping for a Higher Finish than 14th. Negatives 1) Macca's Gone. 2) Stuart Maynard is he the Right Coach to Push Notts Forward? 3) Still Playing Tippy Tappy Football, which doesn't work in League 2 4) No Leadership on the Pitch. 5) Still leaking to many goals in Matches 6) Notts haven't got the Strike force they've had in the last couple of Seasons. 7) Notts getting Relegated back into the National League.

Forest Sign Grealish lookalike Jota Silva
@liampie No Insult Intended. Why? The Story is my Copyright and I have every right to Change things around if Need Be. If I knew how to get the Thread Deleted I would have Done so. It would appear that apparently My Original Title was Clickbait (?) so get rid of Everything Problem Solved.

Macaulay Langstaff Watch.
Quite So @Robbie something isn't right. Then again Macca is No Longer Notts Problem. I Only Hope The Lad Isn't Affected by All these Shenanigans.

Forest Sign Grealish lookalike Jota Silva
@Robbie Thankyou for your Support for the Original Thread.

Could there More to the Rumour of him signing for Leeds? And the injury story was just a ruse regarding his departure from the Millwall Spanish Training camp ? One can Only Wonder Eh @Robbie ?

Forest Sign Grealish lookalike Jota Silva
@Fan of Big Tone How this Clickbait? My Topic is in reference to a BBC post entitled who is Forest Portuguese Grealish. I then go on to explain who he is and why they think he looks like Jack Grealish. @Piethagoram saw the joke as indicated by his Laughing Emoji.

Forest Sign Grealish lookalike Jota Silva
@Chris Why have you changed the Title? It wasn't Clickbait, it was taken from a BBC Sports report entitled who is Forest's Portuguese Grealish. I have gone on to explain this in the Topic. the only I wrong was the Guy's name which I will Alter. Forest sign Jota Silva doesn't have the same Punch has Forest sign Grealish. And will probably Not get as many views because Notts Fans couldn't careless about who Forest Sign. I would like it turned back to it's Original Title. Please. By Changing the Title the Topic has become Nonsensical. And it has little Baring on what I've written.

Forest Sign Grealish lookalike Jota Silva
@Fan of Big Tone Would the Title of Forest Sign Grealish Lookalike , bring as Much Attention as my Original Title? No. People will be more Interested in reading about Forest signing Grealish than his Lookalike. Then Again the Title doesn't read Forest Sign Jack Grealish. People just Assume, it's Jack.

Good Luck To You @Robbie but I think you may be Flogging a Dead Horse. Because has you have said the SNUS Addiction of Players is Something that People Want Buried. What will it take for this to be Brought into the Spotlight? Some World Class Player Collapses and Dies on the Pitch in Front of Thousands of Fans and his Death can be linked to his use of the SNUS Drug. That Statement is a Morbid One I Know but it's Probably the only way the Use of this Drug will be brought back to the Forefront of Awareness.

Forest Sign Grealish lookalike Jota Silva
Big News today, that our Friends across the Trent have signed Jack Grealish. Well his Portuguese Look Alike Any way. And why does Jota Silva remind people of Jack Grealish? As he played on many occasions for his Country? No . As he Won a Sack Full of Trophies? No . Did he cost a British Transfer Fee of over £100 Million? No. But Most Important Question Of All. Has He Ever Appeared in the Famous Black & White Shirt of the World's Oldest Professional League Club? No. So Why Does this Portuguese Player look like Jack Grealish? He wears his Hair in the same way as Jack. That's Right that's the only thing he has in common with Jack is he wears a Head Band pushed back in his Hair. And the Journalistic Genius that came up with this comparison, gets paid Vast Amounts of Money, while ordinary People have to Get Up at the Crack of Dawn work a Job that they more than likely Don't like, to earn Money just to put Food on the Table Pay their Bills and cloth their Kids, Makes Me Sick.

So What's Wrong With Notts?
@Robbie I Don't think it's the Physicality that's the Problem Just the Gaping holes in the Notts Defence that's left by Playing the Current System, plus the Fact it Seems that Notts Defenders are to sacred to tackle opposition Strikers they prefer to either back off or run along side them. Plus the Fact again the Magpies have No Leader on the Pitch. A Leader doesn't need to be the Club Captain, just a Player who can Grab a Match by the Scruff of the Neck and Make Things Happen.

So What's Wrong With Notts?
The Question is will Notts be Mean in Defence looking at the past few Results then the answer is NO. It's all Very Well playing Pretty Football ,but it's No Good looking Attractive going Forward if the Magpies are Going to Get Thumped on a Regular Basis. Notts need to Learn to Win Ugly . Notts play with Style. Well Playing with "Style" hasn't done a Lot of Good Recently, Nor Did It Last Season, from around December Onwards. Going into the New Season I Think Stuart Maynard's Job is Very Much on the Line. The Players aren't Responding to his Coaching and Fans Are Rightly Concerned after the dismal Preseason that's just gone. The Performances haven't Installed Confidence in the Notts Fan Base. Perhaps the Notts Line Up at Tranmere should be 1 1 9. Jatta Up Front Jodi in Midfield while the Rest of the Team stand on the Notts Goal line. That way the Magpies may only Lose 1or 2 Nil. Instead of 3 or 4 Nil.
