Team new for this afternoon's game. Crowley playing, plus Hinchy & Grant in midfield, Jatta with Scott upfront. Looks like our strongest available side. MATTY PALMER on the bench.

The Nest is full to capacity.

I'm really looking forward to this match, new state of the heart pitch, 6000 season tickets sold, should mean a big crowd & a rocking Meadow Lane for the opening day. Not forgetting that Notts have nine new signings, although Macca & Aaron have gone. If Notts can replicate the form they showed in the first half against Shrewsbury for the whole match, I'm hoping for a good performance & a win. CMON U PIES.

Your Sunday Morning Weather

I think there is a great anticipation for our first League match at Meadow Lane this season. 6000 season ticket sold will mean a 10,000 plus crowd will be rocking Meadow lane, & with a good away support it should be a very good crowd. Notts just need to continue their defensive improvement of late, albeit, they let in 3 goals against Shrewsbury. If Notts can keep it tight at the back, Notts are quite capable of scoring at the other end. I'm expecting a good match and I'm hoping for a win. A 1:0 win would do for me because it would emphasize that Notts are going to be much more competitive this season.

I believe Conor is going to be an important player for Notts this season. He has already demonstrated that he has an eye for goal. Grant has a lot of league experience for a young player and this is going to be a big plus for him and the Notts team in the games ahead. I don't think that Conor has come to Notts to sit on the bench. He will want to be in the first team, and that can only help Notts too, with plenty of competition for places. Notts have such an exciting array of players in their midfield, with players of equal skill in the squad ready to come on when needed. The first impressions of Conor are good, & Notts are only going to be the better for it.

No Langstaff in Millwall's squad today to face Bristol City.

I have always loved to hear Mark's analysis when he is co-commentating on the Notts matches. He is so knowledgeable and knows Notts like the back of his hand. I believe his post match analysis was spot on too. I also believe that there are more positives to take from the Shrewsbury match than negatives. The first half was absolutely outstanding, and when under the cosh in the second half the Notts team showed lots of character to get back on terms. As Stallard rightly pointed out, we shouldn't dwell to much on the penalty shootout result. The match against League 1 opposition was commendable when you look at it on hindsight. I do share Stallard's hopes for the season ahead, and I think that Notts will be a force to be reckoned with Stuart's new team this season in League 2. The first game of the season at a rocking meadow lane is going to be a special occasion, with a big crowd and plenty of noise. Can't wait

Fleetwood will be a big test for the Magpies on Sunday, having been relegated from League 1 last season. They will be keen to continue their good start to this season's campaign, having already won their first two competitive matches. Stuart needs to pick his strongest available side. I expect Bass to return in goal, with Platt, Bedeau & Macari in defence. In midfield I would keep Hinchy, Austin & Crowley & Scott to continue his partnership with Jatta upfront, Jones on the wing of course. Stuart may choose to play Chicksen as left wing back with Jones on the right again. Stuart has been hampered by injuries. We will have to watch his pre match presser, to learn if any players will be returning. Notts need to keep things tight at the back as they did against Tranmere. Opportunities up front will come so I'm hoping for a positive result on Sunday.

Macca started the game for Millwall in their league cup win at Portsmouth, but Macca is still without a goal for his new club.
