His pace and speed must be frightening but his footballing ability seems questionable.

I think him playing football is nothing more than him looking elsewhere from his athletic career, he won't be playing football for long at his age but it's great to see someone chasing the dream.

I'm pleased he settled for a club that could allow him to enjoy his football, rather than a big name.

He makes a lot of effort and although the goals might not be the best, he takes them well and chases the second one which I think he caused the mistake with the defender/keeper due to his speed.

lightening fast, i would love to have seen him sign for notts. i dont care if hes still learning myself. i think he would be useful as a winger, if he can cross or pass the ball well thats a different story.

the first goal was okay.

[Magic magpie]

Not a bad goal .. he played well yeah I’ve seen clips of him playing he has improved a lot .. maybe he will play for United one day

[Nocturnal-Magpie]

Just imagine if he had gotten into football sooner, Jamaica could have had one of the best players in the world.

[AmericanPie]

He seems to be enjoying it but at the same time I would feel sorry for other players who are struggling to compete with his fame rather than ability.

[NottsTastic]

It's scary to think how fast Bolt is but credit for the two goals, he took them well.

[TheSkipper]

I think if he started playing professionally when he was younger, he would have been a very good player IMO. His ball control is better than you would expect but he moves it a little slow, still those two goals are very good.

The way he caused the panic by running for the second shows it pays off.

Usain bolt has been offered a football contract from some team I can’t remember who

[KingMaynard]

He's nothing special even his speed looks average with a ball, he's used his name to get the deal and even at the level he's playing it seems wrong to me.
