It takes a village,people.

Why the exclamation mark? Why shouldn’t it happen?

Centre forward just starting his first professional contract should not look a better prospect at right wing back than the right wing back signed to play that position

TAR signed from a lower league finding his feet. Young kid does well. I’d have liked TAR to have performed better. But, it’s no great drama?

I'm not saying it is, but if we signed TAR as our starting wing back, we may have made an error in judgement. DKE looked better from what I've seen of TAR and I wasn't a massive fan of DKE but also DKE wasn't our starting right back last season, so have we gone backwards?

To me, the exclamation mark suggests it is a drama.

Anyway, after 120(?) mins of football I won’t be making a judgement. In the meantime, I’ll trust the Notts recruitment team based on the fact they’ve watched him a lot more than I have.

Great to see our YT players getting a run out with the first team. Thought Mahovo was the pick of them, looked quite assured on the ball.
Alfreton looked a poor team but speaking to a couple of their fans they thought we looked slick and way better than Solihull who they lost 1-0 to on Saturday.
Matt Rheade never really got a look in, Baldwin had him in his pocket.
We're definitely playing with more intent under Williams than we ever did playing Burchball and Harley is noticeably more hands on as a coach than Doyle ever seemed to be.
How it pans out when the league starts is a different matter but, we look far livelier so far this pre season than we have in quite a few years past.

We have had good pre seasons and been relegated, poor pre seasons and been promoted. Means nothing until the league starts.

Very true but over the last few years we looked garbage under Shaun Derry, at Hucknall RR he should have been sent off and we only won because we were fitter and we were terrible until he got sacked. Under Moniz we looked lightweight and unfit and Jenner, Sprockle and Co turned out to be just that and under Nolan we also looked under prepared and that's exactly how it turned out. Ardley's teams were also slow out the blocks, York City showed our weaknesses two seasons running ( short in midfield ) and again, we were.
The only two times I've thought we looked good in pre season in the last decade or so were the Munto year and under Martin Allen.
