Mark Stallard: Notts County Fans the Backbone of a Promising League Campaign

i think mark stallard is always the voice of reason, his comments are fair and i hope we can reset as a fan base ahead of the weekends game again fleetwood. our strongest squad should be much calmer and focused.

Mark Stallard's analysis perfectly captures the essence of the Notts County vs. Shrewsbury Town match. It was, indeed, a tale of two halves. The first half saw us dominating, which was a thrill to watch.

The second half, however, tested our resilience. Despite the frustrating nature of conceding goals and losing on penalties, Stall's encouragement to focus on the positives is vital. Holding our own against a higher division team for 90 minutes is commendable. The substitutions might have disrupted the momentum, but they were necessary.

Stall's optimism for the league campaign is reassuring. With the first home league game on the horizon, there’s excitement in the air for what’s to come. COYP!

I think Stallard's analysis of the match against Shrewsbury Town is spot on. It’s disappointing to be knocked out on penalties, but there are so many positives to take from it. I was particularly impressed by our first-half performance; we played with such confidence and control. The second half was tough, but it's part of the game. Stallard’s comments about the substitutions make sense too; they were necessary for the long-term benefits of the squad.

It was a heartbreaker to lose to Shrewsbury Town on penalties, but Stallard’s analysis provides much-needed perspective. Our first-half performance was exceptional, and even though we faltered in the second half, the overall display was promising. Holding a higher-division team to a draw in regular time is no small feat. The tactical decisions, including the substitutions, were made with the bigger picture in mind. Stallard’s optimism for the upcoming league campaign is what we need. The support from the fans, especially with the first home league game approaching, will be crucial. I have faith in our lads and believe they’re on the right path to success this season.

I have always loved to hear Mark's analysis when he is co-commentating on the Notts matches.

He is so knowledgeable and knows Notts like the back of his hand. I believe his post match analysis was spot on too.

I also believe that there are more positives to take from the Shrewsbury match than negatives.

The first half was absolutely outstanding, and when under the cosh in the second half the Notts team showed lots of character to get back on terms.

As Stallard rightly pointed out, we shouldn't dwell to much on the penalty shootout result. The match against League 1 opposition was commendable when you look at it on hindsight.

I do share Stallard's hopes for the season ahead, and I think that Notts will be a force to be reckoned with Stuart's new team this season in League 2.

The first game of the season at a rocking meadow lane is going to be a special occasion, with a big crowd and plenty of noise. Can't wait 

I think Stall’s comments make a lot of sense. He always knows how to put things into perspective, and I agree with him. There’s no need to worry, shake off the disappointment and focus on the league again.

Stall makes some excellent points about the match against Shrewsbury. Although it was disappointing to lose on penalties, there were a lot of positives to take away. Our team showed great character and resilience, especially in holding their own against a higher-division side for the full 90 minutes. The first half performance was particularly impressive, and while the second half had its challenges, it’s clear there’s a lot to build on. Stallard’s analysis of the tactical decisions, particularly the substitutions, provides valuable insight.

I think Stallard is spot on. We’re all disappointed, some more than others, but we need to focus on what really matters now, and that’s the league. I’m over the defeat, and I reckon most people are too. Our focus should be on promotion, just as Mark Stallard said. I’m glad we have a BBC correspondent who talks sense.

I’ve got a lot of time for Mark Stallard he always tells it like it is and his analysis of the Shrewsbury match is no different, he’s quite right in being positive about the result we took a league one team to 90 minutes and we’re a match for them, the first half was brilliant, we need to take that positivity into Sundays match in front of a bumper crowd at the Lane.

Stall will have experienced it first-hand from his playing days. I give the current squad some slack because I can see they are a good bunch and they care. Drawing against Shrewsbury wasn’t a bad result, and we can’t always expect to stay on top of a game. While the errors were disappointing, we took them to penalties. I feel sorry for the players who missed; it’s not like they did it on purpose.
