When the fixtures are known, there will be even more congestion than last season, so a squad of 22-24 may be required including utilising the loan market. We have 18 at the moment.
Naming an...

As far as I know there’s only 6 - Boldewijn, Bakayogo, Wootton, Roberts, Brooks and Kean. There may be the option for Dennis to have another season.

It’s too simplistic to say relegation was the fault of no-one else but NA. Of course he has to accept his share and he has said that himself but he has recently alluded to the difficulties he faced...

I’ll correct my own mistake. The match at Newport when Watling had to play on the wing was a 1-0 defeat and the following season was when Notts lost only 7 times in winning the 4th Division title.

I think it was 2-1, it was at Newport’s old ground, Somerton Park. I saw every game that season and all 7 defeats were away. Hartlepool, Cambridge, Grimsby, Chester, Newport and for the life of me...

I was at the game, one of only 7 losses that season. I have a vague recollection that the team bus was supposed to pick up Jones at Leicester but he didn’t show up.

2 - Barry Watling and Mick Jones(?) at Newport

Scoop’s choice seems the most likely. He didn’t include subs though and because 5 can be used from a bench of 6, these choices could be crucial.
I would definitely include a goalkeeper as I...

From the remaining squad of 24 I think only 6 have contracts for next season - Wootton, Roberts, Boldewijn, Bakayogo, Brooks and Kean. I’m also led to believe that Dennis has the option of a third...

A few of the posts on this thread have suggested some surprising ideas regarding personnel or formations. I don’t think this is the time for experiments. We have a maximum of two games which we must...

Anyone know how many subs can now be named in NL playoffs? If ncfcog is correct with 9 I’m surprised he didn’t include a second keeper.

Not correct, this season we have lost at Yeovil in the League and the win in the Trophy was also an away game. The home League game was never played because of Covid.

Maybe refunds should be given but personally I would not ask for one.

There were only 3 home games left, plus possible play-offs and FA trophy semi-final which are separate from the season...

L1 has only 23 teams, not L2.

Bury were unable to start their season in L1, so if you say that Barrow will be promoted to L2 and you also say there’ll be no promotion/relegation in the EFL, doesn’t that mean 23 clubs in L1 and 25...

It’s only the rest of the season cancelled and promotion/relegation still to be decided on.

Even though this story was reported by the BBC and Sky Sports, I question its validity. There has been no confirmation by Notts or local media and there isn’t any mention of it on the National League...

I can think of quite a few players in previous seasons who played like cardboard cut-outs!

Not certain of the correct time-frame but could it be Richard Young?

I think Bly replaced Tony Hateley. My first thought was Jeff Astle but then I seem to remember they played together for Notts. The manager may have been Eddie Lowe.

Couldn’t agree more about Dave Needham, sheer class, very rare for him to have a poor game. His partnership with Brian Stubbs was outstanding.

Bit disappointing that none of the 433 has submitted their player ratings. I think it’s one of the more interesting topics on this board. As far as I know, even Scoop hasn’t done them. Anybody...

Laddo, I’ve checked back and Elite didn’t post anything at 9.10pm. However he did post at 8.10pm, so that begs the question - is your phone/pc/laptop/whatever still on British Summer Time when it...

In no particular order, here’s a few jazz drummers who merit a mention - Max Roach, Kenny Clarke, Buddy Rich, Art Blakey, Elvin Jones, Joe Morello, Tony Williams and Roy Haynes.

Yes, I have noticed but there are no central midfielders on the bench, so could you name who you would chose?
