Morecambe vs. Notts County: Match build-up
Notts must shift away from the notion that 'anybody' can win and strive for consistency. Achieving this would bring significant relief and advantages to the squad's future. I do realize that none of the teams may have found their best form yet, but such circumstances can always change. My point is that we need to be better prepared.

Notts County aims for victory in midweek match against Morecambe
It's great to see these articles returning. I'm uncertain about what Notts should anticipate from Morecambe, but I am hopeful for a victory on our part. Langstaff really could use a goal!

Notts County Manager Luke Williams Praises Teamโs Toughness in First Win of the Season
Luke Williams is correct in his assessment. It felt like our team had returned to form, but it's important not to dwell on the past two games. This is a new beginning and we now have something to defend. The win was particularly satisfying, especially since we managed to come back twice against a team of rivals. It's always a great feeling to triumph over adversity and emerge victorious. Hopefully, this marks the start of a successful run for our team.

Notts Countyโs Jodi Jones: โThe Fans Were Fantasticโ
I am impressed by the spirit that the players showed and how they handled the setbacks in the game. Itโs one of those things to go behind in games, but to have the quality to turn it around is extremely positive. Itโs good that the crowd showed its full support. Usually, idiots do become audible, but it was as if we were one. The 12th man is our advantage in games like this.

His enthusiasm is a reflection of the teamโs determination to succeed and make a strong showing in League Two. The teamโs spirit and drive will undoubtedly be a key factor in their performance this season. Kyle Cameronโs positive attitude towards his teamโs prospects is a testament to their hard work and dedication.

With such a strong drive to succeed, it will be exciting to see how the team performs in the coming months.

Notts County Ready for League Two: Manager Luke Williams Shares Insights
Luke Williams clearly understands the challenges of the League Two. increased pace, quality, and athletic prowess, but his parallel emphasis on causing these players problems speaks about his balanced strategy that includes both defence and attack. However, dealing with deep block tactics efficiently might be another challenge, but I trust Williams and the squad to come up with a viable game plan to deal with such situations.

Notts County Captain Kyle Cameron Aims for Top Three in League Two
I like Kyle Cameronโs take on the teamโs training regime. It has left me feeling like we are on the verge of something special again, I'm looking forward to the first kick-off. It signals a team that is physically robust, mentally prepared, and united in their aspirations for League Two. I see very exciting times ahead!

Match Discussion: Game 1 - The Us (A)
In terms of the upcoming game, it seems likely that Notts County will be in control. A final score of 1-3 with Macaulay Langstaff scoring twice and David McGoldrick getting the other goal seems plausible. It would be great to see a strong squad fielded, with Jodi Jones included in the starting lineup. He offers a lot of direct threat and it would be better to have him on from the start rather than bringing him on as a substitute. Ultimately, as long as the performance is decent and Notts bring back the points, thatโs all that matters.

Notts Countyโs Pre-Season: A Recap of the Squadโs Progress
Itโs fantastic to see how seamlessly the new recruits, Dan Crowley and David McGoldrick, have integrated into Williamsโ system. Theyโve both shown themselves to be valuable additions to the team, and their contributions have already made a noticeable impact. With these strong new players on board, thereโs a real sense of optimism and excitement for the upcoming season. Hereโs hoping that their performances continue to impress and that the team as a whole can build on this positive momentum to achieve great success.

Wrexham flew their team to 16 NL games last season!
Itโs insane the number of flights they took. I know there are some fixtures where it might be better to do this, but I do agree that the club should reduce it. Having a quick flight cuts down on the bonding you get from travelling closely on a coach. I donโt expect them to get the train, not at all.

Notts County Ready to Represent with Pride in League Two
The squad looks ready and good enough to face off against League Two teams. We have had a mix of pre-season friendlies which has shown in depth where we need to improve. The squad is good enough to do that, we have depth if we have players who arenโt quite putting in their best performances, but over the course of the season, it will all come together.

Mixed Feelings for Notts County Manager Luke Williams After Pre-Season Friendly
Pre-season friendlies can be like this, I am not too worried. Itโs all about experimenting and mistakes will happen. I agree that these are things that improve during the season. Itโs just important that Luke Williams sees it, as he can coach it out and improve the performance with his clear instructions. We have a strong midfield, so once the squad settles, I am sure the defence will do well, with whoever starts up top having the ability to net goals.

Match Discussion: PSF - Salop (A)
It sounds like itโs just an excuse not to play him. How would Macaulay Langstaff have an issue with fatigue? If itโs an injury, itโs exactly that, but combining the two is just funny. It sounded like Notts could have upped their game at times but didnโt.

Notts County strengthens defence with loan signing of Ollie Tipton from Wolves
Itโs good to see that we have signed a centre-back, especially one who can play in other positions. There has been a lot of talk about him being good. I just think itโs a shame that Nathan Claxton hasnโt been given a chance since his Forest appearance. I think the two would complete our transfers ahead of League Two.

Notts Countyโs David McGoldrick on Hard Work, Fitness, and the Upcoming Season
Luke Williams has received high praise, particularly noteworthy given the calibre of people David McGoldrick has worked with over the years. McGoldrick is a sensible and level-headed individual who speaks eloquently. These are exciting times! With Notts County back in the EFL and the ever-enthusiastic McGoldrick leading from the front, a good season lies ahead. His focus on hard work, fitness, and learning embodies the true spirit of football.

Super Ramโs Journey: A Lifelong Fan of Derby County FC and his Affection for Notts County
Thank you for sharing this article about @super_ram on the Pride of Nottingham site. Itโs fascinating to read about his lifelong love for Derby and how it was nurtured by his family. Itโs heart warming to hear about his early memories of listening to football results with his father and learning about Derbyโs history from his uncle Stan. Also interesting to read about his experiences watching Derby play live, including his first away game in October 1957. Itโs great to see how he continued to follow Derby County throughout his life, even when he started working in Nottingham and had a manager who was a Notts fan. Itโs nice to see how they were able to share their love for football and talk about their respective teams.

David McGoldrick Scores in Notts County Pre-Season Win Over Alfreton Town
I am pleased for David McGoldrick; it will be a natural lift to his goal, even if he doesnโt worry about scoring. He will be thinking about getting another, and it should lift his own morale. I liked the celebration from him, along with Jim OโBrien bowing and kissing Davidโs boot. The strike was superb, placed perfectly in the top right corner. A keeper would have to be special to even get a hand onto something like that. I also really appreciate McGoldrickโs laid-back attitude; heโs enjoyable to listen to.
-
Match Discussion: PSF - The Reds (A)
I think Alfreton should give us a better match, but even we have improved since we last played, so Iโm hoping that we can work on the defensive side and our space creation, as they have a tallish squad. It should be a good friendly!
-
Match Discussion: PSF - The Pilgrims (A)
I wasnโt at the match, but it seems like Boston heavily marked our players to the point where three or so of them were going in to clear the ball away from us. Domination is a good thing, even if we only won by one goal. Itโs another valuable insight ahead of the upcoming season.

The Winning Formula: Luke Williams Talks Hard Work and Enjoyment
Luke Williams is absolutely right. At the end of the day, football is about enjoyment and itโs important to keep this in mind, even when faced with tough competition. When players have good relationships with each other and can share a laugh, it fosters a team-oriented mentality rather than an individualistic one. Itโs clear that the squad wants the best for each other, the club, and the fans. With the current squad, they deserve nothing but our support and encouragement.

Notts County Manager Luke Williams Discusses Player Injuries and Pre-Season Training
I think it shows just how good of a manager Luke Williams is. Our previous managers havenโt focused so much on the details. They may, to a degree, look out for players who are picking up slight concerns, but Williams seems to understand how important each aspect plays a role in the clubโs success. Itโs very articulate and precise; I canโt even think of a manager that has this approach. Itโs not just him, but the staff he has around him. Itโs very promising!

Notts County Manager Luke Williams Praises Team's Performance in Pre-Season Friendly
Defensively is the area we need to improve the most. We play good, fluid football and can break teams down when we control the matches. Itโs good to see the players enjoying their football. I like how Luke Williams is building.

Simon Clarkโs Pick of the Top Away Games to Enjoy This Season
A lot of the away games that I will be attending will be decided very close to when the tickets go on sale, but I do find the list of fixtures interesting and the reasons why. I hope I can make it to games such as Walsall, Tranmere, MK Dons, etc. Bradford City is one of the bigger teams in the league too.

Scouting Dossier : Notts v F*rest
He did very well; he was posing for photos after the games with fans and came across as very nice. I didnโt have mine taken with anyone, but I stood waiting with some people I know who were seeking the other teamโs players. ????
