Notts County defender Rod McDonald has spoken about his frustration at the start of his time with the Magpies following his summer move from Harrogate Town. The experienced 32-year-old centre-back joined on a two-year deal but is yet to make a league appearance due to an injury that side-lined him for several weeks. McDonald, however, is set to make his league debut against AFC Wimbledon today and is eager to finally get on the pitch and help his new side push forward. Reflecting on his first months with the club, McDonald shared how his initial time at Meadow Lane didn’t go as planned. "It’s always a bit frustrating when you come into a new place and want to hit the ground running," McDonald explained. "For me, it was completely the opposite. I had the newborn baby when the boys went on a trip to Holland, so I didn’t go. Then, literally on the money, I came back and twisted my knee – just caught it. It had a little tweak in it, and it put me out for about eight to ten weeks." McDonald’s absence came at a crucial time, but he has tried to look on the bright side, particularly appreciating the unexpected family time. "Sometimes stuff works in mysterious ways," he said. "I’ve never really spent as much time with my kids as I have recently, so it’s been brilliant to be fair. Got a couple of grey hairs for it." Despite his injury, McDonald noted how supportive everyone at the club has been during his recovery. "The lads were brilliant with me. It’s always difficult to try and mix in with a new club when you’ve got an injury," he said. "The gaffer, Matt, and Richard have all been brilliant. They basically said, 'We know what you can do, just make sure you get yourself right and fit, and when you’re back, you’re back.'" Now fully fit, McDonald has featured in a few EFL Trophy matches this season but admits he’s itching for league action. "I’ve come here to play in the league, not the EFL Trophy – no disrespect to it," McDonald stated. "My focus is on playing in the league this season, and obviously I’ve got some stiff competition, but that’s what football is all about." McDonald also praised the performances of his defensive teammates during his time on the side-lines. "All the boys have gelled really well together," he said. "Young lad Louis Macari, I think he’s been excellent this season. Matty Platt, Jacob Bedeau, and even Rob Cundy when he stepped in – I think all the boys at the back have been brilliant. And Bassey’s been brilliant as well." Looking ahead to the game against AFC Wimbledon, McDonald shared his thoughts on facing his former club, where he had an enjoyable spell. "It’s a great club to be at," McDonald said. "We had one of the best FA Cup runs there, beating West Ham and getting Millwall. It was a great time on and off the pitch – the staff, players, and the people behind the scenes there are tremendous, and the fans are great." However, McDonald made it clear that his focus is solely on securing three points for Notts County this weekend. "It’ll be nice to see them do well, but obviously not this weekend," he added with a smile. With Notts County looking to bounce back at home following recent frustrations, McDonald is determined to help his team keep a clean sheet. "You always want to win your home games, especially if you want to get promoted out of this league," he said. "Hopefully this weekend, we can score a couple of goals and try to keep a clean sheet." For McDonald, today’s game represents a long-awaited opportunity to show what he can do in a Notts County shirt, and he is ready to make his mark on the pitch. At 32, his experience will be vital as the Magpies push for promotion this season.

Rod McDonald’s attitude through this injury has been top class. It's always hard for players joining a new club and getting sidelined right away, but he seems to have kept a really positive outlook, which is great. His experience is exactly what we need in defence, and I think his return will help shore things up at the back. Really excited to see how he performs today, especially against his old team, AFC Wimbledon. Should be a good match!16 points

It’s been a long wait for McDonald to get back to full fitness, but I’m excited to see him make his league debut. His experience is exactly what our defence needs, especially after some tough matches recently. The fact that he’s had the support of the gaffer and teammates is brilliant too, just shows how strong the unity is within the squad. His presence on the field will bring us that calm and stability we’ve needed at times. Let’s hope he can help us keep a clean sheet against AFC Wimbledon. It’s not going to be an easy game, but I’m optimistic with him in the team.16 points

I’m really glad to see Rod McDonald finally getting his chance to shine. It must have been tough watching from the sidelines, especially for a player with so much experience. Injuries can really derail a player’s momentum, but it seems like he’s handled it well and is eager to contribute. His praise for the rest of the defence, especially Louis Macari, shows how close-knit the squad is, which is great to hear. We’ve got some tricky fixtures coming up, so getting him fit and integrated now is really important. Let’s hope he hits the ground running and helps us shore up the backline. Clean sheet today, anyone?16 points

Rod McDonald seems like a perfect fit for us. Even though he’s had a frustrating start with injuries, it sounds like he’s maintained a positive outlook, which is really admirable. The fact he’s talking about family and how much time he’s spent with them during recovery shows he's grounded and ready to get back to football. With our backline needing a bit of reinforcement, his experience is going to be invaluable. He mentioned some good things about Louis Macari too, so it’ll be interesting to see how they partner up. AFC Wimbledon won’t be easy, but if McDonald can settle in quickly and bring that leadership, we could be in for a good result.16 points

Rod McDonald is a excellent centre back & I am sure he is going to feature in the back 3 very soon. I expect him to be on the bench today, & I'm sure that Stuart will have him on the field sometime in the 2 nd half of the game. Rod showed in his two appearances in the Cup games that he has lots of skill & is assured on the ball, something that Notts want from their defenders. I think that he will play a big part for Notts as the season progresses.16 points

Notts County head coach Stuart Maynard has emphasised the need for his side to be more clinical as they prepare to face AFC Wimbledon at Meadow Lane. Maynard's team, currently sitting in third place and occupying an automatic promotion spot in League Two, will be aiming to build on their solid away form after a 2-2 draw against local rivals Chesterfield. Speaking in a pre-match interview, Maynard highlighted that while his team has been creating plenty of goal-scoring opportunities, the lack of finishing in crucial moments has been a source of frustration. "If you look at the chances that we've created, they're big, big chances," he explained. "If you give a player probably nine of them, they probably take seven or eight of them. They're not half chances." Maynard acknowledged that Notts have shown plenty of attacking intent, but converting those chances into goals has been the missing link. "In the Gillingham and Port Vale games, we've created big, big moments that should be goals," Maynard said. "We need to make sure that we're composed in the final third and take our big chances because they're moments that change games." Despite the team's strong attacking displays, Notts County have struggled to score at home in recent matches, something Maynard isn't overly concerned about. "We're a free-flowing team that scores goals if you look at the amount of goals we've scored this season," he pointed out. "We never like to look at refereeing decisions, even though they played a major factor within some games. We've got to take those away and solely focus on ourselves." When asked about whether a goal drought at home could weigh on the players, Maynard remained confident in his side's ability to bounce back. "It's one of those games. We've created threes and fours [in terms of chances], so it's not like we're struggling. We just need that composure to take our chances." Looking ahead to the match against AFC Wimbledon, Maynard knows his team will face a tough test. The Dons have boasted one of the strongest defensive records in the division, but Maynard is optimistic that Notts' attacking approach can break them down. "When we played Gillingham earlier in the season, they had only conceded two goals, and it was a similar conversation. I believe the structure we work in and the way we look at the opposition to try and open them up will create chances." Maynard also praised his players' mentality when it comes to away fixtures, where they’ve performed particularly well. "Every game we go into, we want to win, whether it's home or away," he stated. "We're not a team that goes away thinking a point is a good result. We've been very unfortunate at home, but we know how important our home form will be this season." The coach gave a brief update on the squad’s fitness, with most players close to returning, though long-term injuries remain a frustration. "Our long-term players are still out, but we're pretty much getting back to a full squad, which is good for us. It gives us a headache as a management team, but those are the headaches we want." Finally, addressing concerns about Notts County conceding first in recent matches, Maynard was quick to downplay any worries. "I believe we always come out on the front foot and create the first big moments in games. Chesterfield's goal last week was very lucky, but our intent to get that first goal is always there. If we get it, I believe we can go on and win games of football." As Notts County prepares for the visit of AFC Wimbledon, the message from Maynard is clear: it’s all about taking chances and maintaining focus. With both teams having something to prove, the Meadow Lane crowd will be hoping their side can get back to their winning ways at home.

It’s good to hear Maynard staying calm despite the frustrations in front of goal. I think it’s key that he’s emphasising focus and composure in the big moments, especially with so many chances being created. The comparison with Didzy’s magic is spot on, sometimes you need that bit of brilliance, but we’ve also got to be ruthless with the easier chances. The fact we’re nearing a fully fit squad is a massive boost too. Injuries have been tough, but I like that he’s seeing it as a positive, giving the management a 'headache' in picking the right team. If we can bring that home form up to match our away performances, we’ll be in a great place for the rest of the season.14 points
-
This feels like a crucial game for us, especially after the frustrating draw with Chesterfield. I like how Maynard stays focused on what we can do better, like being clinical in front of goal. We’re creating plenty of chances, but we’ve just not been converting them. His point about needing magic from players like Crowley is true, but we also need to finish the big moments that should be going in. I think if we can get that balance right, especially with more players returning from injury, we can push for a strong performance today. Wimbledon’s tough, but we’ve got the quality.14 points

I’m happy to hear that we’re close to having a fully fit squad again, that’s been one of the main issues. Maynard’s comments about being clinical are exactly what we’ve all been thinking. We’ve created so many good chances recently but haven’t put them away. And yes, the refereeing has been poor, but it’s good to see he’s not making excuses. The focus is on us, and that’s the right approach. Hopefully, with a bit more sharpness in front of goal, we’ll get the win today. Let’s not forget Wimbledon are tough defensively, so we’ll need to be at our best.14 points
-
I appreciate how Maynard’s approach is about taking responsibility and not blaming refereeing decisions. Sure, they’ve been frustrating, but he’s right, the team’s creating chances, and now it’s about keeping composure in the final third. If we can start turning those chances into goals, especially at home, we’ll really be flying. Wimbledon’s a tough side, but if we focus on those big moments, I can see us getting the three points.14 points
-
I’m glad he’s back in contention we need as many fit players in the squad as possible, in fairness the defenders and Bass have done well so far this season but they need someone pushing for a place to keep them playing their best. Good luck Rod it’ll be good to see you on the pitch in the league when you get your chance.12 points

It's great that he's back and ready to go. Let's hope he can give us some much-needed stability at the back. I'm impressed by the quality we have in this area, it should help us attack teams by freeing up pressure on the strikers.12 points

It's a very important day for Notts at home to Wimbledon. Notts need to put in one of their best performances of the season today But it's not just about playing well although that's very important, it's about taking their chances when they come. Notts need to be incisive with their passing in the Wimbledon half, & cut out the laboured side to side passing at the back as we have witnessed against Gillingham & Port Vale. I would like to see Jatta & McGoldrick play together & for Notts to build a lead in the first half. Better to get a lead early, than concede early, then have to chase the game. Port Vale will be dangerous on the break & the Notts defence have to stand firm & be switched on at all times. I think Notts will get the win today, but they must find a way to counter opponents defensive tactics when they play Notts at Meadow Lane.11 points

Notts County secured a hard-fought 1-0 victory against AFC Wimbledon at Meadow Lane, digging deep to maintain a clean sheet despite being under sustained pressure from the visitors. Matty Platt’s second-half goal proved decisive as the Magpies edged out The Dons in a tightly contested encounter. The match began with both teams cautiously probing each other's defences. Notts County, as has been the norm this season, dominated possession with 68%, but they struggled to convert this into clear-cut opportunities, managing just three shots on target throughout the game. In contrast, AFC Wimbledon, while seeing only 32% of the ball, looked more threatening in the final third, registering eight shots on target and forcing goalkeeper Alex Bas into several crucial saves. The first half was a scrappy affair, with fouls breaking up play frequently. Notts County’s Matty Platt and Lewis Macari were booked, as were Riley Harbottle and James Furlong for the visitors. The physical nature of the contest saw both teams commit multiple fouls, with Wimbledon conceding 19 and Notts County 13. Set-pieces and free kicks became a pivotal aspect of the match, but neither side could capitalise on their opportunities in the opening period. The best chance of the first half fell to AFC Wimbledon’s Omar Bugiel, whose header flashed just wide of the post after a well-worked move down the right-hand side. At the other end, David McGoldrick saw his effort from inside the box narrowly miss the target as Notts County struggled to find a way through The Dons’ resolute defence. In the second half, Notts County began to apply more pressure, with Matt Palmer orchestrating play in midfield. The breakthrough came in the 67th minute, following a corner that saw Palmer deliver an inviting ball into the box. Matty Platt struck the ball and guided his effort into the bottom corner, giving the Magpies a 1-0 lead much to the delight of the Meadow Lane faithful. Despite falling behind, AFC Wimbledon refused to back down. Their attacking threat continued as substitute Huseyin Biler fired a powerful shot from distance in the dying moments, but his effort whistled just past the post. James Tilley also came close with a header that was well saved by Bass, who stood tall to preserve his clean sheet. As the clock ticked towards full-time, Wimbledon threw everything at Notts County, but the Magpies remained resolute, defending with determination to see out the match. In the closing stages, the game became increasingly scrappy, with several stoppages for fouls and a lengthy delay due to an injury to Lewis Macari, who had to be replaced by Rod McDonald. The match ended with AFC Wimbledon continuing to push forward in search of an equaliser, but it was Notts County who held on for a crucial three points. The victory keeps the Magpies firmly in the promotion race, while Wimbledon will be left to rue their missed chances.

we need to forget about who scores, try to play without nerves and just work harder at converting chances. our start is normal, but we have scored a good amount of goals so i dont we need to fuss. just dedicate some of the training leading into games with chance creation drills for our attacking players, including the likes of matt palmer.8 points

Cedwyn Scott has shown real courage by speaking openly about his struggles, especially in a sport like football where mental health hasn’t always been prioritised. Stuart Maynard’s comments about supporting him, both on and off the pitch, show just how much the club cares for its players. Footballers are often seen as invincible, but they’re human too. It’s heartening to see Notts stepping up for Cedwyn during such a difficult time. I wish him all the best in his recovery and hope we see him back doing what he loves soon, but only when he’s ready.7 points

Welcome back, Rod! Looking forward to seeing you on the pitch. Let’s keep that clean sheet and push for promotion!7 points

Maynard’s words about Cedwyn’s leave of absence really struck a chord with me. Mental health is still not talked about enough in football, and Cedwyn’s courage to come forward is a step in the right direction. As fans, we can sometimes be guilty of focusing too much on the results and not enough on the well-being of the players. Injuries are tough enough physically, but the mental toll can be just as challenging, if not more. I’m glad the club is handling this so well, and I hope it opens up more conversations about mental health in the sport.7 points

It’s good to see Notts handling Cedwyn’s situation with such care. Mental health issues are often swept under the rug in football, but Maynard and the club have made it clear that they are fully supporting Cedwyn Scott through this tough time. As fans, we sometimes forget the pressure these players are under, especially when injuries keep them off the pitch for extended periods. It’s great to hear that Cedwyn has found the strength to talk about his struggles, and hopefully, he’ll return to the pitch when he’s fully ready. Hats off to the club for treating this with the seriousness it deserves.7 points

Notts County head coach Stuart Maynard has expressed his full support for forward Cedwyn Scott, who has been granted a leave of absence due to ongoing struggles with depression. The 25-year-old player, who has endured a difficult period on and off the pitch, has been lauded by his manager for his bravery in openly discussing his mental health. Maynard, speaking ahead of Notts County’s clash with AFC Wimbledon at Meadow Lane, revealed that Scott’s battle has been ongoing for some time. "He’s been struggling for a while, Ceds," Maynard admitted. "He’s had a very difficult time, and even if you go back to last season with his injury, being out for most of the season, footballers want to play. It’s a release in a sense, playing week in, week out on the pitch in front of the fans. I think Ceds has struggled for a while, and we’ve been talking about it, but as a football club, we support him and back him. The key thing is supporting and backing him." Maynard emphasised the importance of Scott’s decision to come forward and speak about his mental health, acknowledging how much courage it takes to do so in an environment like professional football. "It’s huge credit to himself to be able to come out and talk about it because it’s a massive strength. I feel that we, as a football club and a management team, we’re a supportive club. We talk to our players a lot about lots of things because we want to make sure that if you’re happy off the pitch, when you come into work it’s got to be a good environment. Then you perform to the best of your ability." The Notts County manager stressed the role of the club in creating a positive, open atmosphere where players feel comfortable discussing their personal challenges. "We’re always talking to the players and making sure they’re okay on and off the pitch. It’s a huge credit to Ceds to be able to come out and openly talk about it. We wish him the best, and we’re supporting him in every way we can to make sure we get him right and back enjoying his football as soon as possible." Scott, who has struggled with injuries in the past, has faced the difficulty of being sidelined, a challenge that many footballers find isolating. "It’s a lonely place when you get injured, especially long-term injuries," Maynard explained. "Initially, you’re around the group, but then you end up with different rehab programmes, whether it’s gym sessions or not being out on the grass for a long period of time, so it’s very lonely. People think it’s always a team environment, but it’s very different for a player who’s not able to train and be close to the group." When asked about the resources available to players like Scott, Maynard reassured fans that the club is doing everything possible to help him during this challenging time. "There are means in place to support him and get him help with a counsellor. The PFA (Professional Footballers' Association) has been very good and supportive as well. There are lots of channels that you can gain support from, but the biggest thing is admitting it and wanting help, and that’s what’s brilliant with Ceds. He’s admitted he’s struggling, and now he can get the help." Despite the setback, Maynard remains confident that Scott will return to football stronger and ready to contribute. "We back him. We know he’s a top player and that he’ll be influential for us when he comes back, but there’s no pressure. We’ve just got to support him in the right way, and he’ll be back when he’s ready. There’s no timescale for us." As Notts County prepares for their upcoming match, the focus remains on providing support for Scott. The club, in line with Maynard’s vision, is committed to ensuring that their players’ well-being comes first, both on and off the pitch.

Mental health in football is a topic we don’t hear about enough, so to see Cedwyn Scott opening up about his struggles is really refreshing. As fans, we sometimes forget how tough it can be for players when they’re not on the pitch, and Stuart Maynard’s words about how isolated long-term injury can make someone feel really hit home. The team environment helps, but it’s not the same as being fully involved day to day. I’ve got so much respect for the club in how they’re handling this situation. They’re putting Cedwyn’s health first and ensuring he gets the help he needs. It’s also a reminder for all of us to check in on each other, whether we’re in sports or not. Mental health matters, and Cedwyn’s story is proof that it’s okay to ask for help.5 points

I’ve always admired the family feel at Notts County, and this just reinforces that. Stuart Maynard’s support for Cedwyn during this time is exactly what we would expect from a club that really values its players. Mental health isn’t something you can just shake off, and it’s great to see Cedwyn getting the help he needs without any pressure to return before he’s ready. As Maynard said, the team will be there for him, and I hope he knows that the fans are too. I can’t wait to see him back on the pitch, but only when he’s fully ready, mentally and physically.5 points

There has been talk about something not quite being right. It's a shame that some people thought his performances were about him not being good enough for League Two, but how were they to know Cedwyn Scott has been struggling mentally? I wish him all the very best. I hope he can come back happier. His injury has caused him some issues, but I am sure he will come good. I wonder if his depression is also impacted by the loss of his friend, Macaulay Langstaff. Either way, it's not nice, and I send him my fullest support.5 points

Stuart Maynard really highlights how lonely it can be for a footballer dealing with long-term injuries. I can’t imagine the frustration Cedwyn must have felt being sidelined for so long, and it’s amazing that the club has provided the support he needs. It's such a relief to see that the conversation around mental health is changing in football, where it used to be a taboo subject. Cedwyn speaking out is not only a massive step for him personally but will also inspire others in similar situations.5 points

its good that the club and that stuart maynard are supporting cedwyn scott, i hope the time helps him and that he still plays a part in attending games because he should not be alone. he just needs to do what is best for him, the club is doing their part and as fans we can do ours.5 points

i dont care so much about the performance because the win was the result we needed. some fans really need to be happy, instead of complaining we dont win and then its the performance. allow the confidence to increase and hopefully then, the performances will get better. winning is important at this stage, no matter how.4 points

This was a really important win for Notts & their fourth clean sheet of the season. This team know how to win when they aren't playing at their best and that was the case today. The defensive line were solid again today and Bass was superb. When a team has a good defence there will always be a chance of winning or at least drawing. Matches such as this, Notts would have possibly lost last season. Now they are winning these games by showing grit, determination & a will to win. Notts have lost good players till at least the new year & they just need to keep getting positive results till then. The way they are playing they should be there or there abouts near the top of the league when those players return.. Another tough game awaits on Tuesday away to Barrow. Notts will need to repeat the grit and determination they showed today on Tuesday night, by grinding another win or draw.4 points

Alex Bass played exceptionally well, but I voted for Matty Platt. We mustn't overlook how important his goal was, and he was also very solid defensively.4 points

Another good performance by our back line to record another clean sheet Platt & Bedeau were superb in defence. Palmer did the business once again & Abbott was good in the second half when transferred to central midfield. Tsaroulla was good when he came on in the second half. Crowley had much more room to work in the second half & Didzy was his usual hard working self. But I choose Alex Bass for my man of the match for being absolutely superb in goal once again. What a signing he's been for Notts.4 points

I agree with @Robbie and @Chris here, a downvote button would be negative to the climate and vibe of the forum. I've seen it in Reddit too, it makes it much too easy to just downvote something you disagree with and move on. The way things are now, you can only show that you disagree with something by making a post and stating your view, and isn't that what a discussion forum is all about? I want to hear different views (as long as they are stated respectfully of course). Unless they're disagreeing with me of course. In that case it's off to the dungeon!3 points

Really sad to hear, I just hope he gets the answers he’s looking for and that time out to just reassess everything in his life. When you have a season out and then come back but keep picking up injuries, it must be very frustrating. And he’s watched two players he was very close to in Ruben and Macca move on and into the Championship. At 25 he’s still young and capable of achieving a lot in football, I really hope he comes back refreshed, in a good place and able to have a good second half of the season with us.3 points

Really pleased with the result today. We looked a bit shaky at times, but credit to the lads for keeping their heads and grinding out a result. Defensively, we were solid, and it’s great to see the team able to close out games like this. It wasn’t flashy, but it was a proper team performance with everyone putting in a shift. This is exactly what we need if we want to push for promotion.2 points

I only use the reactions “like” etc. sparingly if I really like something or the laughing reaction if I find it funny, I don’t necessarily like everything I agree with and I would hate to think that anyone thought I disliked or disagreed with something because I haven’t liked it. If I strongly disagree I would quote the section I disagreed with and say why I disagree.2 points

@Fan of Big Tone During the days of Windows 98 PC's and dial up internet there used to be holiday auction sites, where you could bid for holidays that were unsold & needed to be sold off These auction sites allowed you to bid on foreign holidays & if you timed it right you could get a great bargain, such as all inclusive holidays for less than half price, sometimes even less than that. Had some great holidays by that method, but I think those sites are now discontinued. But it was good while it lasted.2 points

@CliftonMagpie Absolutely. Unfortunately I would think like Most Men Ceds would have thought his Problems were Something he had to Cope with alone, after all he's a Bloke and Men Don't have Problems That is A Sign of Weakness and Men Don't like Showing their Weakness, So they Hide It. Most Male PON Members have gone through something like this themselves. Ignore It and It'll Go Away, whether it's Going to the Doctors or the Dentist or Whatever. Thankfully ( and I use the Term Loosely ) something May have Happened to Ceds while he was with Family or Friends and It Suddenly Clicked and he Realized He Didn't like the Person he was becoming, something like that became his Eurika Moment and He Knew He Needed Help. Thankfully there are Experts that Can and Will Help Him.2 points

AFC Wimbledon are a decent team. From previous encounters, we know we can't write them off. Even if we take the lead, it has to be protected. I hope we are more creative in midfield than we have been recently, because that always helps players get chances on goal. Notts can play nice fluid football, but when you have wingers like Kellan Gordon floating in good crosses and others with decent passes, you can't rely on one or two bodies to put those chances away. We need to make space and take any opportunities that present themselves. I think there will be more than 2 goals in the game. Provided we don't draw 2-2 and get the 3 points, I will be happy. We need to start winning our home games again.2 points
