Notts County manager has shared his thoughts on the team’s preparation for their first season in League Two in four years. In an interview, he stated that the team has tried to increase the intensity and volume of their work, while keeping their approach similar to last season. “We’ve tried to do something very similar to what we did last season. But of course we needed to try and increase the intensity that we work at and the volume of everything that we do,” he said. He acknowledged that there will be more quality, pace, and impressive athletes in League Two, and that the team needs to be able to play against those players, stop them, and cause them problems. “I imagine there’s going to be more quality, more pace, more impressive athletes. And so we need to be able to play against those players, and we need to be able to stop them and also to be able to cause those players problems,” he said. The manager also addressed the issue of teams playing with a deep block against Notts County. He stated that many teams ended up in a deep block against Notts County last season, even if it was not their original plan. “First of all, for clarity, I think we had 2 home games where the opposition genuinely had a game plan to sit really deep. Many, many times when you watch the opposition deep it was not their plan at all, but they were forced into that position,” he said. He believes it is yet to be seen if Notts County can impose themselves in League Two, but they will have the same approach and mentality as last season. When asked about the team’s recruitment, the manager stated that he does not have a huge amount to do with it, but he believes that last season’s recruitment was outstanding due to the return of goals and level of performances from the players brought in from the National North and National South. “Last season the recruitment was outstanding because of the return of goals and the level of performances from the players that were brought in from the National North and National South,” he said. He also believes that the signings made this season have been very strong on paper. Be sure to be a part of the community and get involved with the Pride of Nottingham ahead of the season!

Notts County has announced the completion of a season-long loan signing of Wolverhampton Wanderers defender Ollie Tipton. The 19-year-old player recently spent time on trial with Notts County, with the aim of securing a loan move. This morning, the club confirmed that the loan move had been completed. Ollie Tipton is a promising young defender who will bring his skills and talent to the Magpies for the upcoming season. In a recent interview, Tipton expressed his excitement about joining Notts County, saying "From what I've seen, it's a really good club. It looks like the club is going on to something special and I couldn't wait to be a part of it." The club and its fans are excited to welcome him to the team and look forward to seeing him in action on the pitch. This loan move is a great opportunity for Ollie to gain valuable experience and develop his abilities, while also helping Notts County achieve their goals for the season. A statement released by the Notts County board of directors reads: "We’re really pleased to add Ollie to our ranks for the duration of the campaign, and would like to thank Wolves for entrusting us with his development. We were keen to add another defensive option to the squad and Ollie has all the qualities we look for in that area. While we see him primarily as a central defender, his ability in possession means he’s also capable of playing as a defensive midfielder. His versatility could prove crucial over the course of a long campaign, and we look forward to seeing how he progresses in his time with us." This is his first loan move away from Wolves, where he first joined their academy at the age of 11. Tipton established himself as a leader within the Wolves academy, captaining both their Under 18s and Under 21s sides. In recognition of his talent and potential, he was rewarded with a contract running until 2025. Ollie Tipton made his senior debut for Wolves against Crewe in the 2021-22 EFL Trophy. He continued to gain experience in the same competition last season, helping his side progress through the group stage before being narrowly defeated by Manchester United on penalties. The loan move to Notts County presents an exciting opportunity for Tipton to further develop his skills and gain valuable experience at a senior level. Speaking about his role in the team, Tipton said "I'm a defender and I like to think I can play all across the back three. I'm comfortable on the ball and like to start attacks. On the defensive side, I think I'm quick and athletic. Hopefully, I can bring that into the team." He also expressed his ambition for the season, saying "As I said, I think this club is onto something special and promotion has definitely got to be up there. I really want to be a part of it."

Luke Williams has spoken about the importance of balancing hard work with enjoyment and maintaining a positive atmosphere within the group. He mentioned a petition for Tobi to do every post-match interview, highlighting the fun and camaraderie within the team. Williams also joked about having to charge Tobi up on the bus to an away game.

With this mindset, the team is sure to bring their best to the field in their upcoming games. BBC Radio Nottingham’s Dave Bracegirdle interviewed Luke Williams, who spoke about the importance of having fun and maintaining a happy camp. “Yeah I think I want us to work very hard, that’s the most important thing first, then there’s always time for some fun,” he said. “And I think you don’t have to look any further than Tobi to know there is a happy camp, everybody can laugh, he’s incredible.” Williams also mentioned the petition going around for Tobi to do every single post-match interview. “And I know there’s been a petition going around for him to do every single post-match interview, but yeah, it’s brilliant to have a group with a lot of fun and most importantly they work hard for each other,” he said. When asked if Tobi is always full of life, Williams joked that they have to charge him up on the bus to an away game. “Constantly, constantly like that, we normally have to charge him up on the bus on the way to the game, plug him in, then he’s ready and full of life when we arrive so, he’s just a top guy, and he has that personality everyone is drawn to, and we have to have that in the group as well as much as we want to work hard and be intense we still have to have fun as well,” he said.

Williams also mentioned that their opponents are likely to put more senior players or first-team regulars on the pitch, which might give them some insight into what they’re going to do. “Yeah and for our opponents as well, you know if we look at our opponents most likely they’re gonna put more senior players or more first team regular players on the pitch and that might give us some insight into what they’re gonna do,” he said.

Notts County emerged victorious in their pre-season friendly against Boston United, with a final score of 1-0. Cedwyn Scott, the forward, netted the winning goal by converting a cross from Jim O’Brien in the second half. This dominant performance was rewarded with a win. The first half of the match was relatively subdued, with the audience of 1,042 spectators waiting until the 23rd minute for the first significant chance. Cameron Gregory thwarted Aaron Nemane's initial attempt, denying him at the near post. As the match continued, Luke Williams made several substitutions to provide playing time to as many players as possible. Macaulay Langstaff was among those introduced and had an opportunity to score a second goal when he was expertly assisted by Aidan Stone. However, he failed to get past Gregory and the final chance of the game slipped away. After the match, Luke Williams spoke to Dave Bracegirdle of BBC Radio Nottingham about the game and how it was a good workout for both teams. "Nonetheless, yeah, it was a good workout for us, and I’m sure for them as well. And everything kind of went according to plan, so it was a good day in our preparation," he said. Williams also discussed the rotation of players during the game, saying that it was important to give everyone the correct minutes to ensure that the whole group is at the same level. "No because I think at this stage we have to try to rotate the players around in a logical way to give them the correct minutes so that we have the whole group at the same level. And so not too much to read into that. But I was happy with every player, really," he said. When asked about the opposition's defensive discipline, Williams praised their display and said that Notts County faced similar challenges last season. "No, and I think when the opposition are going to be so defensively disciplined, and I thought it was a very good display, and we did face that once or twice last season. The outcome has to be in a worst-case scenario has to be nil-nil when the opposition are nowhere near the goal. So if you make a break for a breakthrough, sorry when you’re playing against such a tough defence then you have to not concede," he said. Williams also talked about how the opposition will have a plan to try and frustrate Notts County and force them into making errors. "Of course and this is something that we talk about inside the group that the opposition will have a plan to try to frustrate us and to try to force us into making an error so that they can capitalise on our frustration or lack of concentration. And that’s a tough thing to tough style to play against very tough. And we done everything correct today and that’s why I’m really pleased because it was obviously a physical workout because at this time of year we have to have that. But also it became very taxing mentally to keep doing the same things over and over and not get frustrated or fall into a trap," he said. Despite facing a tough defence, Notts County kept knocking on the door throughout the game. Williams praised his strikers for their ability to put the ball in the back of the net when given the opportunity. "Yeah and as you said we were knocking on the door pretty much the entire game, and you have to keep being in the right position. You have to keep trying to make the right actions to deliver the ball across the box. And then of course we’re lucky because we have great strikers at the club that if they do make the correct action they put the ball in the back of net, and you know that’s the most valuable thing they can do for him," he said. Looking ahead, Williams is glad that there is still time for his team to work and prepare for the upcoming season. "No I’m glad we’ve still got some time, and we can still work, and we can make sure that players have been pushed as hard as they possibly can be pushed without breaking. And that way they should be in perfect condition for season," he said. It was a successful day for Notts County as they continue their preparations for the upcoming season. With a solid performance and a win under their belt, the team can look forward to their next challenge with confidence.
