    Nottingham Post published Ricardo Moniz wants to extend Jack Barmby loan at Notts County
    Out of the many positives which Ricardo Moniz could take from thedraw at Exeter there was one which stood out more than most. Jack Barmby produced an excellent performance at left-back, a position that is not unfamiliar but it is not his first choice. A winger by trade, Barmby was stuck in defence because of an injury to Thierry Audel who had been terrific in his last two games. But the on-loan Leicester player proved more than a capable replacement. Like Elliott Hewitt at right-back,...

    Liam Noble insists Notts County are more than ready to face League Two big guns Portsmouth after admitting confidence is sky high. The Magpies clinched a 1-1 draw at Exeter on Saturday with the midfielder's thumping finish cancelling out Tom Nichols' opener.

    Like everyone else, I thought Liam Trotter to Nottingham Forest was a dead deal. But there he was on Saturday and he got the equaliser against Ipswich Town. Trotter is a player who will go get you goals from midfield. He's a bit like Henri Lansbury; they are very, very similar types of players. The only difference is Henri isn't getting forward enough. I don't know if that's because he's been told to sit back, but he isn't really playing in his true position. Trotter was in the six-yard...

Although we had the jubilation of the late equaliser against Ipswich Town on Saturday, three points from six games isn't good enough. I thought Ipswich's goal was a bit flukey. It was just a looping ball back into the box. I'm not sure Jonathan Parr really meant it. It just looped in and dropped over Dorus de Vries; he didn't really have a chance.

His show is a hoot. Of course, he's older (he celebrated his 88th birthday a week and a half before this appearance) and took to the stage looking both frail and a little unsteady on his pins. At times his voice was a quiet mumble, causing some in the audience to struggle. But for well over two hours, he showed off his..

Dougie Freedman was the man who signed Parr at Crystal Palace – ironically after he had been given a short, unsuccessful trial at Nottingham Forest. But Parr had little time for sentiment as he netted what looked like being the winning goal for Ipswich at the City Ground. Parr's goal came in the 74th minute and looked to be the winner, until on-loan Bolton man...

    It seems as though Dougie Freedman needs a magical formula to get his Nottingham Forest side to put the ball in the back of the net. The best sides in this division year after year quite simply have a knack for being clinical in front of goal, and when gifted an opportunity by the opposition, they brutally punish them. Forest finished the first half against Ipswich with a positive flourish with a plethora of attempts on goal, but the score still lied at 0-0. I could always see Forest...
