It's truly a proud moment for Macaulay Langstaff, scoring his first couple of FL goals. You can glean from his remarks that, despite the expectations from fans and the intense pressure, he has remained strong and unperturbed. His perseverance is genuinely commendable, as he believes in himself and his abilities, no matter the situation. His comment, "If I'm not getting the chances then I’m doing something right," is a testament to his incredible self-confidence and unwavering dedication to the game. In retrospect, Langstaff's composure, patience, and perseverance have indeed paid off. It's not just about achieving a personal milestone. It's about proving his critics wrong and demonstrating his worth. His journey of scoring the inaugural FL goals will inspire many aspiring footballers to believe in their abilities and work diligently, no matter what the circumstances are.

What stood out to me was the sheer diligence and bravery displayed by the team in the face of Doncaster Rovers' initial pressing. Notts County’s performance reinforces their growing stature in the league. Looking forward to an equally enthralling match against Tranmere Rovers.

Luke William's tactical changes and understanding of the game make him a commendable manager. Also, the recognition of Langstaff's skills and efforts is a big motivation booster, which I believe is important for team confidence.

Very good game, Notts worked Doncaster and made them look like a very poor team. They don’t seem to have the quality to match most of the teams in this league, whilst I can’t see them being relegated. I do see them floating around near the bottom, especially with their supporters being quiet and passionless. What a great win today for Notts!

The thing about most players is that they will be diplomatic and I have respect for John Bostock that he won’t forget his time with his club. Some players move on then act like the previous club is their enemy. Professional players won’t do this, which is a great thing. I also praise Bostock for going to the fans before and after games.

Well, the start was slow and at times we lacked penetration. It wasn’t due to a lack of effort, more so because Doncaster just marked and made any space quite compact. They wouldn’t half clatter some of our players when trying to knock the ball out for a throw-in. I wasn’t impressed by them or their fans, I never heard a peep out of them and that’s just poor in my eyes. Our fans were very loud and made the away game very enjoyable, great game. It opened up in the second half, Jodi Jones showed some real class with his goal.

The game has opened up now, Jodi Jones makes it 3-0. What a performance so far!

I would like to see Adam Chicksen out wide, rather than in the middle. If Richard Brindley is fit enough, I would certainly have him in the middle of the back three. I also agree with the article by @TheSkipper that John Bostock is a must because of the height Doncaster have. I suspect that they will be physical too, so we need all the grit we can get. I feel Doncaster are there for the taking and if the squad works hard enough, we should come back with a good result.

Although there are positive aspects to consider, it is frustrating to have controlled the game so much. While I respect the outcome, I believe we should have returned with all three points. Based on the events that transpired, the result is fair. Neither team posed enough challenges to the other. However, Luke Williams is correct in his assertion that we need to concentrate during the game. With patience, success will come.

I am fully inclined to view it as a point earned. Despite our efforts, without a clear opportunity, it's difficult to perceive it otherwise. I believe Luke Williams might have made a prudent choice by introducing a substitution at half-time, perhaps bringing on Sam Austin or John Bostock. Not that a change was necessary, but I sense that introducing a different player could have altered Morecambe's approach. They seemed to have a good understanding of our tactics and were attentive to marking specific players. In my opinion, the game was satisfactory, and I'm relieved that the weather remained pleasant with sunshine prevailing. We will undoubtedly make improvements; I have confidence in that.

I didn't have the opportunity to comment on this, but I found the victory to be exceptional. Considerable effort was invested in overcoming the two setbacks, and the entire squad contributed to transforming what could have been a potential defeat or draw into a win. The goals displayed a high level of quality, and they were all executed very well. The finishing from Grimsby's players was also outstanding. Their second goal was a beautifully executed move!

Indeed, we all would have preferred to secure a victory, and when examining the statistics, it does seem like that should have been the result. However, matches are not determined solely by statistics or what's on paper. Credit must be given to Morecambe for making adjustments that curtailed Notts' ability to create further chances during a period of intense pressure. If we were in their shoes, we'd likely be commending Luke Williams for similar decisions.

Passion, grit, and an unwavering belief in our abilities are what we need to secure victory against Morecambe. I'm particularly excited to see how McGoldrick utilises his experience to pressure Morecambe's defence. This promises to be an absorbing encounter.

League Two may be taking shape, but it's still early days. Momentum can shift quickly, and we've seen teams claw back from defeat in the past. While a win is not imperative at this point, it would certainly boost morale for Notts and settle the initial jitters they might have.

Watching this game felt like riding a roller coaster with its ups and downs. However, it's admirable how the players clung on and didn't give up. Williams should be praised for instilling that resilience in the team. Sure, the drama does get to your nerves, and it'll be great to see more composed performances in the future. I can't be harsh to Connell and well done to Brindley for his excellent game.

It's heartening to witness Jones' enthusiasm and optimism about Notts County's prospects. His assurance about more to come from him for the fans is something we all look forward to. His confidence in himself is contagious and bodes well for the team's future performances. Even with his impressive performance, he remains humble and hungry for more, which is an excellent trait for any sportsperson. Concerning the game, his recognition of the fans' support shows how much he values their contribution. It's wonderful to hear an athlete appreciate their fans so openly, acknowledging their role in the win. His positive outlook, both in terms of personal performance and team outlook, is a breath of fresh air.

The first match is usually a bit static for newly promoted teams, unless they overcome their nerves and really go for the win. I can’t see Notts winning by a large margin; I think it will be close and that Sutton United will be defensively resilient. My prediction is a narrow 1-0 win, with Macaulay Langstaff scoring the only goal of the game. It wouldn’t surprise me if either team ends up having a goal disallowed. Despite my low score prediction, I think both teams will play quite well.

I think Luke Williams has hit the nail on the head when he talks about other teams reverting to a deep block even when it wasn’t their initial game plan. This shows that our intensity and performance can force a team to change their tactics on the spot. What we need now is to find a way to break down that deep block efficiently.

There are valuable lessons to be learned from playing games like the one we just played. Winning all the friendlies 2-0 or 5-0 won’t reveal as much. Starting against a smaller club allows the team to ease back into playing, while the bigger games show where the squad stands and what needs improvement. Without being tested, there can be no learning or progress. Notts have already shown promising signs in pre-season, particularly with how well David McGoldrick has integrated.

Without knowing the facts about the jet’s eco-friendliness, I wouldn’t be quick to judge. However, it seems as though the voice of reason has prevailed. I don’t understand why some of our fans on social media are so obsessed with Wrexham.

Despite the fact that our team seemed to have some trouble fully comprehending the game, there were undoubtedly some moments where we shone. It is our hope that by reflecting on our mistakes and working to improve upon them, we will emerge as a stronger and more cohesive unit when the league begins.

It’s going to be the closest insight for us as to how we can compete in League Two; Shrewsbury is a decent team and won’t be that far from our standard. Yes, it’s still down to fitness and settling in, but if we can convincingly win this, then it could be the lift we need going into our season. It ends it off well, doesn’t it?

It sounds like this loan is the start of the young player’s journey into football. Wolves offering him a 5-year deal suggests that they see him as a future prospect. I don’t think they would offer such a lengthy contract to someone they didn’t believe could break into their first team. So, this appears to be quite a coup, even though it’s only a season-long loan. I’m delighted with the addition, as it provides us with some much-needed energy in defence and further cover. I’m very pleased with it!

You can sense McGoldrick's sincere commitment to the team and sport in his comments. His willingness to continuously learn even at this stage of his career is both surprising and admirable. It's not about just the physical work and scoring goals, but also about enhancing the mind and technical abilities. His focus on passing, for instance, will undoubtedly boost the quality of the team's play over the season. It’s the mark of a true pro!

With all due respect to the previous three fan stories, this is by far my favourite because it explains why we have @super_ram on board here, other than him being Chris’s father. I don’t mean this to be taken as if he shouldn’t be here; in fact, I enjoy reading his comments and only wish he would post more at times. It’s not your standard Notts fan story; it’s much more than that, and it’s very nice to read about how he came to like Notts. I always felt we shared a special friendship with Derby, but this goes beyond that too. Thank you for sharing it.
