Golden Boot nominations for this month?

  • Second XI manager Tim Salmon deserves a mention for selecting midfielder Henry Overton and waiting in the car park for 20 minutes for him to arrive before remembering that Henry had told he was unavailable at training on the previous Tuesday!!
November

Golden Boot nominations for this month?

  • Serious nomination for Andy Dicko, our efficient Fixture Secretary.
    Notts Reserves are due to play Southwell Amateurs at home and the eagle eyed Dicko spots that Southwell play in green and white hoops.
    “Don’t worry” claims Dicko, “I’ve told Gary Newton to pick up the yellow kit from Atko. He’ll bring it to the game.”
    When Gary arrives (minus kit).
    “Andy didn’t say anything to me about picking up any kit!”
    Hastily a brand new school kit of blue & white stripes is grabbed and the Twos put it on to warm up only to see Southwell Ams come out of the changing rooms 5 minutes later in red and blue stripes!!!
    Back in the changing rooms the team talk is interrupted as Notts players swap shirts back to their normal green & white!
    Well played, Andy—Golden nomination for November!!
December

Golden Boot nominations for this month?

  • This month’s nomination has got to be the front runner (so far) for the overall award.
    One training session at the beginning of the month saw third teamer Matt Morley bring no less than FOUR new players down to training. A couple of these guys were, to be fair, a little overweight, but two of them were really decent players and it wasn’t long before 1st Team talent scout Colin Spencer was drooling over one of the players and eyeing him up for a first XI fast track promotion scheme.
    At the end of training the players were approached and some phone numbers collected.
    The players then failed to appear the following week, or the week after that.
    The following Saturday was a tough week for players and one of the four was telephoned to see if any of them might be available to help out.
    “Saturday side? Matt told us you played on Sundays!” came the reply.
    “I can’t play,“ said one, “As me and my brother follow Forest, home and away. The other one works and the fourth already plays for a Saturday side!”
    Congratulations, Mr Morley, you’ve moved into prime contention for this season’s Golden Boot award for not knowing which day of the week your team plays on!!

Golden Boot nominations for this month?

  • Scott Howarth was delighted to receive the drill top he’d ordered so long ago and expectantly he opened the top to reveal the initials that read—SW (!!) Colin? Get that speech ready—your trophy’s on the way back to you
March  

Golden Boot nominations for this month?

  • This month’s nomination for the coveted ‘Golden Boot’ goes to Notts Threes ‘livewire’ wing back, Keenan Wilson who has recently splashed out on some home improvements.
    Not content with a quick trip to Wilko’s to get what he needed, our brave Keenan coughed up 80 quid to buy the most important item in anyone’s bathroom—a toilet roll holder!
