    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...

    Certainly a conundrum worth solving. If we do, we're champions next season! :D

    Just watching the highlights from yesterday, the goal we conceded looked like another example of players being brainwashed to think we have to play/pass our way out of every situation instead of just...

    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...

    Notts County in white shorts is an abomination. Reminds me of the relegation season when Mick Walker was sacked, we went through multiple replacements and the players looked untrained and...

    It's just lazy scapegoating when there isn't even really a need to find a scapegoat. Still, mix football fans and social media and it'll always happen! :D

    "Value" was the key word I believe. They're happy to spend six figure sums on players like Jatta if they feel the value is there, and they don't want to sell unless silly money is on the table.

    The silly errors certainly need to be left behind, and that means leaving behind the excuses for over-playing in defensive parts of the pitch. "We want players to take responsibility" is not an...

    Shame he couldn't get them "buzzing" today then. He needs to talk a lot less and deliver a lot more.

    It didn't matter in terms of there being any prizes on it, but a win today should have been possible against the bottom-placed team, and would have given us a 12th place and therefore top half...
