If you are in your early 20s you have witnessed the Munto season only in terms of success. That's ya lot.

Early 30s the Munto season and the Big Sam title, so two genuinely enjoyable and undeniable great seasons (at the time).

Early 40s you are lucky enough to have seen back to back promotions under Warnock, visited the old Wembley multiple times and tasted top flight action for a season to add it the list.

If in your 50s/60s you've got the Sirrel success to rightly fondly remember and look back on.

If you are in your 70s its likely you can remember the 1960s that don't appear to be kind to NCFC supporters.

I feel for any Notts fans who didn't at least catch those magical seasons under Warnock and am envious of anyone who saw Sirrel at his very best.

Point being the future of this club, the younger fans, haven't known anything other than decline with 1 or 2 great seasons that's it. Maybe they are the ones who can adjust to NL far easier than the OAP aged fans who saw the glory days overachievement.
I saw rubbish Notts teams in the 60s until Jimmy arrived, I then saw us climb from div. 4 to the now championship but didn't see the best years in the top league or any of our Wembley appearances. Started attending again in the mid 90s and watched ever since.
