One of the clumsiest defenders I've seen play for us, after Knight. Can only have got slower in the last 6 years and completely goes against everyone saying we need youngish hungry players. If we'd signed Wheater or Hobbs everyone would say they're too old or injury prone etc but they are better defenders, better leaders, more likely to score and been less injured in the last year. But I do trust Evatt to get the best players in that he can get within budget. Baptiste often looked uncomfortable I felt because we rarely played him in his best position, centre half. Quote

I think it was against Newcastle during the final announcements of the teams, In goal for Newcastle <insert name> BOO! Number 2 <insert name> BOO! eventually the stadium announced gets to Number 5 Titus Bramble HOORAY! I don't think he ever had a good game against us. Quote
Biggish Dave Posted August 2, 2020 Posted August 2, 2020 Gonna be a mad scramble for tickets if we’re allowed in Quote
radcliffe white Posted August 2, 2020 Posted August 2, 2020 Surely after this fixture list can’t be far off Quote
DomRepWanderer Posted August 2, 2020 Posted August 2, 2020 After Championship playoffs would be my guess. Quote
leigh white Posted August 2, 2020 Posted August 2, 2020 Would like to see the punters faces in " Betty's Tea Rooms " when Bolton rock up in town. Quote

Bundesliga looking at starting with reduced home numbers, no away fans and no alcohol on sale until next year, can imagine them doing similar here. Quote

Part of me thinks it might be no away fans next season at all but we'll see. Quote

woolli Posted August 2, 2020 Posted August 2, 2020 (edited) Would be better if Notts won from an away fan point of view. Just been looking at Harrogates capacity, only 700 standing and 150 seats for away teams! Edited August 2, 2020 by woolli Quote
