  1. Robbie I didn't know about the Jones baby but sleepless nights are something he'll have get used too, and hopefully won't effect his training to much in the future. The problem is Notts had a decent sort of result today but it's still Not Enough (in my opinion) for Maynard to keep his job. It seems if Notts get a Result i e the victories at Newport and Bradford and todays draw some Fans think the worst is over but what usually happens in the following match the Magpies drop back into the same Old Routine it also seemed that once Notts had gotten in front they reverted back to their tippy tappy Football instead of going in for the Kill and once again the Dons third goal their player had acres and acres of room, by easily beating the offside trap, then it was thankyou and another goal for the opposition how many times have we Fans seen that this season? The Bigger picture should be looked at and not just the Odd Good Result. After all 9 points out of 42 isn't anything to write home about. The Form of Jatta is certainly a Bright Point amongst the Gloom at Notts and hopefully he can carry on with his Goal Scoring Prowess in the Future.
  2. The Banner regarding Maynard Out it was only a matter of time, and to be Honest I was surprised it took this Long. I don't Agree with it but those Notts Fans are Entitled to Opinion. It may be only a Minority at the moment but how long before it becomes the Majority? Why did Maynard play Chicksen and Not Jones? Despite Jones being on the pitch for what 11 minutes? He still chalked up another Assist . I can't believe Macca's Luck in front of goal just lately he must be wondering what he needs to do to get back on the score sheet. Well it now seems Notts can't be relegated even mathematically.
  3. While walking through my Local Town Centre I saw this Scruffy Shabby dressed bloke with long lank dirty hair . He sat down and started to tune a Battered Old Guitar, then he sang When I was young It seemed that Life was wonderful A Miracle Oh it was Beautiful, Magical I said Hey that's Supertramp He replied Cheers Mate.
  4. I woke up at my usual Time this Morning . Then Oh Gosh I Forgot To Put The Clocks Forward. What a Silly Billy I am the wife said the same, But Not in so many Words.
  5. I think your right Robbie. But Don't Call Me Shirley. Sorry couldn't Resist.
  6. In our local village we would always see the Vicar riding around on his bike chatting to people helping with any problems villagers may have. Well one morning I came across the Reverend walking along the Street. Morning Vicar I said where's your bike? I'm afraid it's been stolen. Oh Dear I replied May I give you some advice Reverend? Yes please do. Well next Sunday make your Sermon about the Ten Commandments and when you get to Thou shall Not Steal stop and have a Good look round the congregation and who ever looks guilty, that's your thief. Thankyou I'll try that said the Vicar. So the following Sunday we're all in Church and the Reverend gave his Sermon on the Ten Commandments, but instead of stopping and looking round at Thou shall Not Steal he carried on. Well after the service we thanked the Vicar his sermon and I said Vicar you didn't stop when you got to Thou Shall Not Steal. I know he whispered But when I got to Thou Shall Not Commit Adultery I remembered where I'd Left My Bike.
  7. Well ARLukomski Here's my Retained list. Macca Jodi Jones Dan Crowley David McGoldrick Matt Palmer Scott Robertson Lewis Macari Cedwyn Scott Allsanna Jatta Sam Austin Geraldo Bajrami Luther Munakandafa James Sanderson Tiernan Brookes. Should be promoted to the senior squad, Jim O'Brien giving a Coaching Role. The Rest Thankyou for your efforts in the Black & White Stripes but your time at Notts as run it's course. This of course only applies to the Senior Squad. It's time Luther was given a ran at a First team Spot Loaning the Kid out over and over again isn't going to do him any favours. I think his contract is up for renewal in the off season, he should be given a new one, but I wouldn't blame him if he decided to go elsewhere. Those Players Not on the Above List are either to Old (from a Footballing position) or are Not Up To League 2 Standard. As I've Stated Repeatedly there needs to be a Massive Shake Up At the Lane this Off Season. Players with recent League 2 experience and above ( particularly Defenders) and aged 30 or under need to be brought to the Lane. The Main Problem with this is of course the current position Notts find themselves in, so a New Man in the Dug Out is Essential a Manager with a lot of Football League Experience who can build a Squad that is capable of challenging for a Playoff Spot Next Season.
  8. And Yet Robbie watching them you'd think they didn't care because they seem to think their Two Year Contracts will keep them Safe and at the Lane for the foreseeable Future. What they Need to Know is just Because they signed a New Contract it doesn't Guarantee them their Future is with Notts.
  9. The Wife had bought herself a New Pair of Jeans, she stood in front of the Bedroom Mirror and of course I get the Usual Question. Do these Jeans make my Bum look Big? No Sweetheart Chips Crisps and Chocolate make your Bum Look Big.
  10. Reading your words Fozzy the Sad Truth is you're Absolutely Right. Why prolong the Fans agony of having to watch a Head Coach who's out of his Depth, he must realise himself he's Not Up To The Job he can say that he gave it a go and he failed, but that's Life and he should learn from his Mistake. And Robbie we all know the Notts players should give their all the Trouble is Do They Know That? From what I can gather the Magpies were already beaten by Half Time at Swindon and That Should Never Be The Case of any Professional Footballer. I must admit a Day out with the Family Monday does sound more Appealing than watching Notts Go Through the Motions of another Defeat.
  11. I was thrown Out of Weight Watches for making sarcastic remarks at the weekly Weigh In. You can Imagine I took it with Huge Grace. Because they threw her out as well. I had Stew & Dumplings last night. I shouldn't call Her That But She is A Big Girl.
  12. Give the Youngsters A Go at least they'll be more enthusiastic than some of the Present Team Members, they'll want to go out and Prove a Point and make an impression along with Playing For The Shirt.
  13. Robbie It's a Shame you're Not 40 years younger and the Captain of the Magpies, reading your comment shows what is lacking at the Lane at the moment. Every Player should look at himself in the Mirror and ask am I doing the Best I can? Because after all those players owe their livelihood to us the Fans and as you say they should leave everything on the Pitch, and if Notts go down at least they should go down fighting. But having No Leadership on the Pitch and a Dithering Head Coach who makes strange team selections and subs his Top Players and then states the Team played well in after match interviews well it would appear All Hope Is Lost. Notts are Crying Out for a Manager (Not Head Coach) who will grab the Squad by the throat shaking it and Tell Players If They Don't Buck Their Ideas UP then they wont be playing the following Saturday. I Will Admit it's to late for this season, but Next is a whole New Ball Game. (Pun Intended). The Manager and Captain should work together, the Manager tells the team how he wants the team to play and the Captain enforces his plan on the Pitch, but is also allowed to change things around if he feels certain parts of a Game Plan isn't Working.
  14. A a White Horse walks into a bar and orders a Whiskey. What type of Whiskey? ask the Barman. We've got Teachers, Bells Whyte & McKay and even one named after you. What says the Horse Eric?
  15. Lets Stop Pretending Notts have Head Coach who hasn't Got a Clue, a Defence who Can't Defend and a Game Plan That Doesn't Work. Need I Go On? It doesn't matter who Maynard Picks it seems the Players don't want to Play for him, so No Matter what the Result is on Monday Maynard Needs To Be Gone by Tuesday Morning. Offer Jim O'Brien the Head Coach job till the end of the season hopefully he'll help the Players get some of their Dignity back and Start Playing for the Shirt. The Attendance on Monday will be Interesting and the Atmosphere will BE TOXIC and If the Owners are at the game maybe they'll understand they've made a Mistake in Hiring a Part Time Head Coach who is Totally Out Of His Depth. That's NOT to say I'm having a Go at the Brothers it's just I hope they realise, in Football you Can't Get Everything Right and Mistakes Will Be Made.
  16. Well it's begun after the Shoddy Performance today there are a lot of Magpie Fans Threatening Not to Renew Their Season Tickets for Next Season, if Maynard is still at the Helm down the Lane for the Start of Next Season. It may be a Trickle at First but It could Turn into a Flood. I sincerely hope the Brothers and anyone else who had a Hand in Hiring Stuart Maynard realise their Mistake, and have the Honour to admit it and put their Mistake Right.
  17. Can you Honestly see Notts getting a Result Monday Robbie? I can't the Atmosphere is going to be TOXIC really the only thing Maynard can Do Now is to Fall On His Sword (as the saying goes) and WALK. Because Notts Fans will make their Feelings Known, but Not Only is Maynard going to get Stick certain players will also feel the Fans Wrath. And as if stated on other Platforms the Coach has Lost the Dressing Room and players don't want to play for him that really is The End. For these last few games, put Jim O'Brien back in the Dug Out (if he wants to of course) the players respect Jim and under his leadership they might Put In Some Kind Of Performance and if Notts go down at Least hopefully they'll go down Fighting.
  18. IT was said by Oliver Cromwell to Parliament and I'll say it to Stuart Maynard. IN THE NAME OF GOD GO.
  19. It all Depends how the Magpies fair at Swindon. However even if Notts do manage to grab all three points against the Robins, I think it will take a Huge Effort to get any sort of result versus MK Dons. Notts 0-3 MK Dons. Always Happy to be Proven Wrong.
  20. This Chap rings his employer up and says Boss I can't come in today I'm full of Cold. You have to replies his Boss we need to get this order out on time and I need everybody here. But I do feel lousy Boss. Do you know what I do when I'm not very Well? I get hold of my wife and give her a Good Seeing Too. Try that. Ok Boss I'll give it ago. Just at the end of the Dinner Hour the Bloke who's ill manages to stagger into work. Great You Made it say s the Boss, You Did What I told you to Do then. I certainly did Boss, and can I just say You've Got A Lovely House.
  21. Robbie Lets hope somebody or someone has brought this to the Attention of the Brothers and the Head of Recruitment and they finally come to realise that things at the Lane need to change and change Quickly or that table may be a Prediction of the way things will be at the end of 2024/2025 season for Notts County..
  22. I hope you're wrong Robbie regarding Maynard swapping things around over the Weekend, that's all well and Good but if Notts Do pull off a Victory at Swindon and he changes the line up Monday and the Magpies Lose, All Hell Wil Break Loose. He's on a Hiding to Nothing realistically only Two Victories will ease the pressure on Maynard and his coaching Staff.
  23. Ohh Tommy Johnson that's basically what I meant someone to come on here as a member or incognito and then Report Back. My Bad.
  24. We've gone over this question and others similar to it time after time and we all have our opinions and what we consider what is Wrong at the Lane and how it should be put Right. But the Final Decisions will be made by Chris & Alex and possibly other Board Members. Will Stuart Maynard Stay or Will he Go? Will Macca Jodi and Dan Crowley be Sold? Will Players not up to League 2 standard be Released from their Contracts? Will a Director of Football be appointed next season? I would hope that all of these questions and Decisions are already being sorted behind the Scenes. Do you know what would be a Good Thing? If someone at the Club came on to this site and read Real Fans views and what their worries are regarding the Club. Because as I read comments on PON by my fellow Magpie fans it's clear they only want what's Best for Notts County Football Club and if their words were to get back to the Owners it would give them pause for thought.
