High - getting out of it

Gateshead on a freezing summers night having to walk up the hill and to find there was no roof on the stand...Originally Posted by uysapie
Dorking Wanderers , one wabbly portaloo
Aldershot, Bloody drummers
Solihull, Burger van next to the toilets.
Harrogate. 3 portaloos for 800 supporters.
Barrow. Shi*thole
Thank god we are finally out of this hell hole of a league. I really dont know, in this day and age how so many of these clubs are allowed to trade with such disgusting facilities...
Hall Of Fame
We’ll find out if Harrogate and Barrow have improved on those facilities.
Apparently Salfords new ground is nice but they only get lower NL attendances.
The high for me is watching Notts stabilise, being consistently competitive and now like the Phoenix out of ashes. Having a club we can be proud of. Having owners who have massively contributed to my last couple of statements. I wonder what would have been if we’d have stayed up?
The low, as other have put, being in it. The non performances against the like of Dover and Harrogate (final).
Hall Of Fame
The best performance I saw was this season at home to Southend. We were relentless all game and played with total control and intensity. It was the one and only time I thought we'd actually go on to win the league, but that didn't last long (we lost to Dagenham next game).
Hall Of Fame
Best performance - Wrexham first half or against Stockport at home.
Worst performance? Woking at home, somehow lost 3 or 4 nil was it….I was worried at this point. There’s been some terrible FA trophy games too.
Best ground visited - I liked the Oldham ground. Bit of a dump but it has character.
Worst ground - Barnets is tidy, but really soul-less.
Best player - Palmer. Special mention for Ruben.
Worst player - Casper Sloth, at least everyone else gave it a go.
Best not Notts player - Mullin
Best goal - Castro v York city, Ruben v Dagenham, Reeves v ‘no idea fc’, Eli Sam v Oxford city.
Best memory - Winning goal v Chesterfield in the Burchnall covid season was great but Baldwins equaliser v Boreham Wood was special for me because I felt like it was all over.
Worst memory - Playoff loss v Grimsby, never felt so dejected after a game. IB left a few days later and I felt then we were ‘doing a Notts County’

Always a good type of topic, especially when you've escaped.
Best performance? So many to pick from over the seasons even with limited viewing in person. If you are ST holders you've got a plethora of dominate impressive wins where we steamrolled a side. Wiping the floor with dark horse Sarfend a great candidate.
Worst ? Probably a slightly fortunate draw at Maidenhead, just couldn't get going , allowed one of their players players look like a mix between Ronald Koeman and Pirlo.
Best ground visited? Wembley, not that old dump we had fond memories out in the 80/90s but the shiny new one. Aldershot away end will be missed. Proper old school, just what you want.
Worst ground : Plenty to choose from. I don't like Bromley, horrible away end. Wealdstone was errrmmmmm cute and with character in a amateur, what are we doing here sort of a NL way.
Best player (Notts) : Palmer, first name on the team sheet for me and reassured me that we wouldn't drop out style to NL level we were going to tippy tappy our way out of NL, even though you aren't supposed to.
Ruben for consistency being better than almost everyone. Macca for one season record breaking heroics.
Best Player (Not Notts) : Obviously we don't see too much of opposition players in person relying instead on BT sports, but some real stand out quality at this level Madden, Mullin, Dallas, Cheek, Sbarra.
Worst player (Notts) : I may go with Effiong (for us, obviously much better elsewhere). A few other real disappointments like Mitchell and Brunt but hard to pick a shocker. For me Sloth doesn't count, never saw him.
Worst Player (Not Notts) : Dozens and dozens and dozens of players who made true sunday league level mistakes. Ruben or Roberts made plenty look very poor, Nemane skipped by many others. Don't know or can't remember any of the names, referred to instead as that cr@p centre half, their awful right back, the big lad up front for them...
Best moment: Unsurprisingly Baldwin's second and Jones versus Borehamwood especially the former. Bostocks goal at Wembley, the second penalty save (when I allowed myself to finally relax in the game as I knew it was our day) and that winning moment from Scott and the 40 mins in the stadium basking in it afterwards.
Hall Of Fame
The more I think about it, the more I realise that Baldwin's equaliser and Jones' winner against BW are the two best moments in my 35-year Notts-supporting career. Obviously winning at Wembley was more important as it sealed the deal, but in terms of pure emotion, those two goals are pretty much the best ever. Give me Meadow Lane over Wembley any day of the week.
Hall Of Fame
Worst moments: All the obvious in the playoff games, Grimsby's goals especially the winner. Torquay scoring so soon in that SF game. Scott's saved penalty at the racecourse. Don't think it would have changed the title winner if he had scored but it left me on the floor. The shock of that daylight robbery underserved break away winner by Daggenham. Any other disappoints during the league games under any of our Head Coaches paled in significance to those huge moments and disappointments to me.
They also made this season's two playoff games so very very special.

The standard of skill was what you might have expected from some semi-pro teams but not from some totally inept referees. You can't blame the teams for actually being there, for some it was surely their height of expectation but some referees surely shouldn't be allowed anywhere near a whistle again. Some, in fact more than a few, had preconcieved ideas of how the game will be played and interpreted the rules as they saw fit, forcing the game to proceed as they thought it ought.
