The Magpies secured promotion back to the Football League last season following a titanic battle with Wrexham at the top of the table, eventually securing promotion in the play-off final against Chesterfield to end a 51-match campaign.
One of the stars of that campaign was striker Macaulay Langstaff, scoring a record 41 goals in his debut season at Meadow Lane, with a number of records broken in the process.
Despite rumoured interest throughout the January window, newly-appointed manager Stuart Maynard was able to keep hold of his prized asset as they look to complete back-to-back promotions for just the second time in the club’s history.
Macaulay Langstaff’s season for Notts County so far
Many questioned whether Langstaff would be able to replicate his form in the National League upon Notts’ return to the Football League.
Having played in the National League North just two seasons before this, the 26-year-old had amassed 71 goals in 89 appearances before the Magpies’ promotion, and he has continued to score goals for fun this term.
