I look out for your results most week, I don't know why, but I do!

I support Notts County in England, I am sure 99.9% know who we are after this crazy season.

I have looked at some of your fans vids on youtube, and i have to say... you are so much better than the Americans. Lets be honest, they don't have a clue how to support a team, be it in Ice Hockey 'Soccer' Football or baseball. You lot put them to shame!

Looks a very well kept forum as well.

Super Notts! :canada:

I dunno, man. Look at the crowds that come out for college sports down there. Some of the big universities play out of stadiums and arenas bigger than a few professional clubs. Though I'd agree that we got 'em beat when it comes to soccer (footy). :D

when I heard we were getting a team I was shit scared that they'd do something like that.

Cheers Darlo... Apart from the first 25 mins Darlo didnt play to bad against us, but I dont know if that was due to us taking the foot off the gas a bit. Just was lacking upfront and you just needed one center back who can order them around. Hope you bounce back up next season.

just a few days before the first game at home..

same with the grass... should be ready to run on a couple days before.

My only complaint is that Craig Forrest keeps calling them "Toronto FC" during soccer broadcasts.
I mean, it's a game, or a soccer show, we know what Toronto team your talking about.... just call them Toronto!


But yeah, I'm glad they didn't end up the Toronto Super Towers or something.

Looking at the stand it looks a very tidy but small stand. I really think you should have a roof on it to make the atmos in the ground better than it already is... I don't know what you would think about that though?

yeah well people are always complaining about no roofs ;)

But if they put a roof on that one, the people there wouldn't see the scoreboard behind them. heheh.

that stand cost $2million CDN ($1.3million pounds) to build... sounds like a lot to me.

We've been asking for a roof since 2007.

Only if the club can find a way to make money off it!
Perhaps find a good sponsor name to attach to the roof.

you know, some of the best games for atmosphere were when everyone got soaked in the rain....

the good thing about my seats (where the second T is in TORONTO), is that by gametime the upper deck blocks the hot summer sun so it's like a roof :)

If anyone is intrested in lower league football take a look at my youtube vids, I upload new vids each week after all the games. Home and away take a look!

This vid was on Saturday

I'm always interested in lower league football.
My family local club is Bristol Rovers (well, kinda local, family lives in Wells)
I went to the Rovers home opener last season... good times.

I'm often surprised that a team like Notts County, which is so historic, and has a 20,000 seat stadium, is stuck in League Two.
Just seems wrong.

Welcome to our message board! I have family in Nottingham and they support County ;)

I don't like patting ourselves on the back, but we have had an impact on how fans support their team in this league. Seatle have great support, and the new team in Philly looks like it's going to have really good support too...the league is moving in the right direction, Americans and all :D

Some of us just figured it out earlier and supported the proper team. :)

The most views on a video is when Kasper (our keeper) done a scissor kick!! just went over, but so close to going in! It was crazy!

When my wife moved to Toronto from New York City, I had this deep fear inside (WHAT IF SHE CHEERS FOR THE RED BULLS??!?!?!)

But when I saw her cheer for TFCs goals and boo the Red Bulls, I knew everything was A-OK!

Welcome to the board. Yes, I agree, we should have a roof on our stadium. Until then it'll continue to be a shit, high-school pointy ball stadium in my eyes. I doubt we'll get one though since this club is not owned/run by football people (the people who decide on these matters, anyway).

PS: Your stadium is beautiful. Check out New Yorks!

Thank you, I love our stadium, It can make some fantastic noise when we score

Even when we are 4-0 down away from home we just keep on singing. Notts County is a great club...

Nah man, not much has changed. We still can't make the playoffs, have a new coach, have raised season tickets prices again.... I want change... Wait, MoJo is gone... that's something.

Hey, do me a favor and make sure you go up with the Brighton this year. :D
