    Jodi Jones - 100k?

    At the start of the season we finished 8th, I'm pretty sure most of us would have been happy with that - after all, we avoided relegation by an inch. Was the falling away disappointing? Of course. Was the first half of the season the best we've seen in years? Yes. Ultimately Mowbray failed, but...

    Jodi Jones - 100k?

    I've said this before, but I still like Mowbray. Pressley killed my love of football, and Mowbray brought it back . For that, he's okay in my eyes.

    Notts County Racist Chants

    Are we sure it wasn't a 'shite' Leicester City? Not that we are shite, but, you know, the Bantz and all that.

    Ratings v Notts Co

    Don't think so, although that was equally hilarious. There was another a little while after iirc. Perhaps 15 mins into the second half.

    Ratings v Notts Co

    He did pretty much kung-fu kick him just after the ball had gone. The sort of thing you detest if the opposition does it, and absolutely love if your team does.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Notts County Match Thread - Saturday 5th Aug

    Other things that stood out to me: McNulty never let their keeper kick it out of his hands unopposed. Beavon harried and harried, creating space for the more skilful and speedy players. Grimmer looks like he hates to lose, and also looks like he'll stand up for his teammates in a scrap. And...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Notts County Match Thread - Saturday 5th Aug

    I think Vincenti is a great option. He swapped with Jones repeatedly, and both are so different that the opposition fullbacks have to effectively have 2 game plans. He tracked back well, got up top to support when he could, and took no shit. He also slotted into the middle a few times too...

    Is that our transfers finished now?

    Ameobi seemed almost disinterested to me. Like he'd given up as soon as they went one down. But then again, he's spent most of his career playing decent passing football at the toon, and probably can't be arsed suffering with the hoofball Notts County played. And most of that long ball stuff was...

    Pearson signs

    Tbf, the Barnet supporters said he was possibly their best player. I mean, Barnet probably haven't been blessed with too many decent players in recent history, but that's still a good measuring stick when looking at L2.

    Thank you. I hunted high and low on there, too!

    League One Preview Podcast - D3D4

    So how do you listen to episode 1 then? No links to it on the website. Poor show in this day and age if you want people to take an interest in what you have to offer.

    Chelsea defender on trial

    Andy Williams? That would have been just too good to be true.

    George Thomas

    I think that someone is Beavon. He will lay them on a plate. Assuming he stays, of course.

    Transfer Rumour Former player in talks with us! - Courtney Baker Richardson

    Yes, just ignore the full stop between ex-Honduran international and ex-City legend. The sentence didn't say they were mutually exclusive. Nor did it say it was a striker. This rumour isn't the same as that from OP.

    This is next seasons kit (probably)

    Shame, I think the trim makes it.

    Transfer Rumour Former player in talks with us! - Courtney Baker Richardson

    Ex-Honduran? Wilson Palacios, maybe - he's a free agent, I believe? The word legend is thrown around willy nilly nowadays, so that doesn't narrow it down much - I want to say McGoldrick, but think that's a stretch too far. As far as left backs go, I'd guess Jamie Reckord, based on him being here...

    Transfer Rumour Former player in talks with us! - Courtney Baker Richardson

    The Rik Mayall version was: Do your balls hang low? Can you swing them to and fro? Can you tie them in a knot? Can you tie them in a bow? Do you get a funny feeling When they're dangling from the ceiling? Oh you'll never be a sailor if your balls hang low.

    Budding Footballers take heed

    And McAllister was ready to sell McSheffrey to Luton for 70k just before he started putting the ball in the onion bag on a regular basis.

    Gould 71

    Phil Neal was a grade A nobjockey. I base that solely on the fact that he never ever referred to us as 'we' but as 'your club'. A manager who doesn't believe he is part of the team is not a manager in my eyes.
