Still feels like we won't be able to press effectively with that front 3 but hopefully the defence won't fold under the slightest pressure this year.
I'm still tempted by the Macari - Platt - McDonald - Bedeau back 4 but I don't think there's any evidence we'll actually go for it.
Yeah I wasn't clear there really, we do have "depth" positions to fill but I don't think we're looking for starters apart from maybe RCB. So I meant that I don't think we're going to be spending the Langstaff money on fees elsewhere
I think there was a rumour or two, not surprised he has ended up in L1 though. Most of the possible replacements Notts fans had identified have been snapped up I think (Paton was another who people had mentioned), other than Brown at Derby who was at Gateshead last season. Could see us looking...
Generally I agree with this, although I am certainly more on the side of McGoldrick not being able to be relied upon more than he's not good enough. Jatta doesn't have a great injury record either really. Scott has to prove it in this division for me, but if he's willing to press more than I...
IF you can believe Transfermarkt, last player we got money for was Ben Davies. Which is both believable and utterly unbelievable all at the same time. I think we also shipped a couple of youngsters out (Kion Etete and someone to Wolves I think) but no idea if we got money for them. And we've...
I'm not massively worried as I don't think he was likely to play much, but it is another defensive option out of the door. Is it just Macari, McDonald, Platt and Bedeau now? Definitely need 2 more in.
Gutted about Langstaff but what can you do? Hope he scores tons there too.
I think even the way they spoke about it at the time - "leadership group" etc - I reckon the players and staff knew there was always a chance of this happening. Definitely better for it to happen now than in late August.
Assuming we will spend some of the money on a replacement, I do wonder if...
Langstaff having a medical at Millwall according to O'Rourke. Hoping he's as unreliable as many seem to think but as others have said there's been a lot of smoke recently.
As with Baldwin, disappointed to see him go from a sentimental point of view, and I think Cameron had a role to play this season but if he doesn't want to be here then that's best for everyone. Just hope we're not on the hook for any of his wages.
Notts have introduced a home membership (£20, entitling you to a £2 discount on tickets and some minimal priority for cup games), a charge for buying in-person or over the phone (£1.50 per ticket) and have raised individual prices by £2 per ticket across the board. This makes an adult ticket...
Thursday at 8pm is utterly ridiculous. Still don't know what's happening with the game the week before as it clashes with Forest, might not have a Saturday home game until 7th September.
I understand the wanting to do something different aspect, but we had the barcode one last year and pinstripes the year before so it's actually been a while since we just had "normal" black and white stripes.
The sponsor is pretty unpopular, easily the most common complaint about this season...
On the one hand, I don't like it, but on the other, that makes me a traditionalist and as such old. Not a good day for me. In general I prefer more black on the home shirts but the fade into the stripes I can't get behind.
Millwall have put a bid in for Langstaff according to Pete O'Rourke. I would guess from the phrasing of it there's not a lot to be worried about from a Notts point of view but it might spur other interested clubs to take some action.
In fairness as academies higher up the divisions have 9 year olds trying to play like a Guardiola team, naturally there are more.players becoming available capable of playing that sort of style, and it is more possible to put together a decent team doing it at this level. Maybe the hoarding of...
