Notts County F.C. captaincy tussle ends as Langstaff accepts role

Our number nine, who finished as the EFL’s top scorer last season, will be supported by vice-captain Matt Palmer at the head of a newly-formed leadership group.

Head coach, Stuart Maynard, said: “Firstly, on behalf of everyone at the club, I would like to thank Kyle Cameron for his service as captain over the last three years. He led the team back into the EFL and his contribution throughout his time in the role isn’t lost on anyone.

“However, we feel this summer presents us with an opportunity to bring constructive change to the leadership structure within the squad as we prepare to embark on what will be another highly competitive League Two promotion challenge.

“For us, Macaulay has everything you need in a captain of a club this size. He has won the respect of everyone – players, staff and supporters – with his incredible, consistent performances and the way he conducts himself day in, day out.

“His work ethic is infectious and, as captain, he will play a huge role in creating the working environment we need if we’re to be successful this season.

“Another very esteemed individual who will be assisting him is Matt, who numerous players, including Macca, have informed us they consider to be among the team’s most important players.

“Matt is going to be a huge figure for us going forward, both on and off the field in his new role. His recovery is going well.”
