    Yes that was noticeable.

    Self-evidently the balance between attack and defence this season hasn't been right, and it's clear from the comments that the club is going to look for players who are...

    Yes, but a legitimate one. No point having these nights and everything being nicey nicey. The fact is that several of Cameron's performances this season haven't been worthy of a captain, and...

    Decent event - important that the club engages with fans through nights like this, even if the quality of the questioning varies. Comparatively few questions directly to Stuart Maynard, but in a way...

    Absolutely true. I saved £40 a month by saying I was going to leave and initially meaning it. Sadly, you get the treatment you're willing to tolerate, and customer loyalty to a company -which should...

    I think we're just starting to see some fruits coming out of our academy again, after being set back years when the previous one was scrapped. Players like Brooks and Sanderson may not have truly...

    I paid cash. In fact, it took a bit of persuading and waiting to get a paper receipt, but to be fair to the lady on the desk she was perfectly pleasant and helpful - no problem with her, just the...

    True, but it will continue if too many people just accept this low-level sh*thousery without calling it out, wherever it happens.

    The fact is, you cannot by a Notts County season ticket as...

    It's a bloody cheek to be honest. People shell out the not inconsiderable sum of £405 to watch football and the club wants you to pay for processing your transaction too, like they're doing you a...

    That message doesn't tell me anything knew about Jim O'Brien, but it confirms everything I always thought. A player who literally gave you everything and never hid from responsibility, even in...

    Aside from Jim O'Brien, the list of those released is pretty much what I expected, as is the list of those "made available". Baldwin just never seemed to learn from his crass errors, and Bostock's...

    I think you're presenting a somewhat false dichotomy between "really going for it" and "boring as hell", which certainly isn't what I'm advocating.

    What I am saying is that you have to respect the...

    A successful team needs a balance between attacking flair an defensive nous, and in crude terms it should be about five outfield players of each type.

    I think if you play with a back three...

    In terms of entertainment value, this Notts team at their worst are still a better watch than Thompson's Notts team at their best.

    Bostock can certainly play our style because he's very good with the ball, but the question I would ask is, where?

    It's been evident this season that he's not defensively strong enough to play...

    Brindley did a good job for us at National League level but was clearly beyond his depth in League Two, so I'm not surprised he's leaving. Good luck to him though, he was part of the team that took...

    Yes, this.

    I quite like Scott Robertson as a player, not least because he's one of the few n the current team who is willing to put himself about and make proper tackles. He's had two or three...

    Yes the 3-5-2 worked in the National League because the overall quality of our playing resources allowed us to dominate most teams, but it has been brutally exposed in League Two because the players...

    The defence was just about fit for the National League, supplemented by our extraordinary goal power, but it's not good enough for League Two, and yes it's true that Stuart Maynard has had to work...

    Solihull 4-0 up now. Joe Sbarra - very good player. If they come up, that's some job by their gaffer, Whing.
