You’ll be pleased to know that Labatts still exists #nffc #bringitback

There’s still a β€˜stay in your lane’ vibe about the way we’re seen in the Premier League. Apparently we shouldn’t fight to keep out best player and ought to roll over? #nffc

Such good news. So much rubbish spoken about him on social media since the Spurs interest broke but he’s integral #nffc

Danilo mk1 was an exciting addition and played a key role in keeping us up with crucial goals. Whether he can quite get back to that or not is unclear but we probably needed to upgrade to operate at the level we aspire to reach #nffc

Happy to eat a sizeable chunk of humble pie re Tom Moores. Some sensational batting in recent weeks has shut his critics up. Need a find a role where we get this out of him more and more #t20blast #notts #outlaws

Sadly, given the challenges to come don’t we need to do both?! Feels like someone like him would allow a young gem a bit of time to find their feet perhaps? Be great if we could also find a gem in the academy to step up and fill a squad berth 🀞

Quite. I’d see the extra money as worth it given that he could operate instead of Wood on occasion too? Adds a different dimension to what we can do…

It’s going to take big money - and teams know we’ve got a bit of cash. Need at least one established player like him to hit the ground running if we’re not to squander the opportunity posed by Europe don’t we?

15.07.2025 21:16 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

I really think we should push for Wissa. Proven quality and can hit the ground running in Elanga’s absence. Surely worth pushing on before Brentford can agree a deal for Mbeumo? #nffc

We basically need to buck that rate, push the ratio to 1 in 2, find some players that are Aina esque bargains and get very lucky with injuries. A lot to ask πŸ‘€

At a time when we need the squad - or squad of people good enough to play in the first team at least - to grow. Need a few rabbits from the hat don’t we? Don’t want to be gloomy but today was a gut punch

Gibbs-White provided the class that made a huge difference. Not a top half team without him. Good luck to the poor sod tasked with replacing him. Not saying it can’t be done - but very difficult, especially if clubs think we have money to spend #nffc

Yes, that too. Release clause though means our hands are tied? Huge job on our hands now

Always going to hard to keep hold of talents as good as Gibbs-White. Needs a big year to play at a World Cup at his peak and Tuchel set the tone that he needs to go to a bigget club. Still, can’t deny it’d be absolutely gutting to lose him. One of the very best to don the Garibaldi #nffc

I like Lars, but I’m baffled as to why he’s baffled. Young international player who is a proven Premier League match winner. Maybe I’m greedy, but I’m a little disappointed it wasn’t higher

Genuinely gutted that Elanga seems to be close to going. Electric pace made him so exciting to watch. Weirdly seems a low fee too for a young international with proven pedigree at this level #nffc #nufc

I’ve not liked this cos you don’t seem like a dickhead at all…but I wholeheartedly agree with the rest of the sentiment

Notts serving up a turd again. Such a shame to watch a great Blast team decline to this. Let’s not beat about the bush, there’s only one person who would still be picking Moores #blast #t20

We know deep down that we aren’t ready - and certainly weren’t good enough today - but still a bit gutting. Feels like the last four home games were all big missed opportunities #nffc

Shout out for Dominguez today. Worked his socks off, was a total pest and made sure we were competitive. Tactical flexibility has really helped us when players have been flagging #nffc

And yet some would have us adopt the death penalty. Another rebuke to that idea…
