2022–23 Notts County F.C. season


I've listed this article for peer review because I'd like to get it up to featured article standard. I'm a Notts County supporter and while I've tried to be neutral I may have slipped up in places by being biased or overly wordy. All comments and suggestions greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Eric Idle&#39;s Cat (talk) 19:59, 3 December 2023 (UTC)

Lead
-too long, also needs some sources

Background
- The first three paragraphs are completely unnecessary, and all this information should go into the National League article. This is way out of scope. The fourth paragraph is excellent, well sourced and explains the background well up to the club's first season back into the national league after relegation from League Two.

Coaching changes and player transfers
''Notts County brought in five players on loan during the 2022–23 season. Leicester City goalkeeper Brad Young joined on 26 August. Intended as a season-long loan, an injury forced his return to Leicester in January. I think these three sentences could be merged to 'Notts County brought in five players on loan during the 2022–23 season, starting with Leicester City goalkeeper Brad Young, who joined on 26 August. Intended as a season-long loan, an injury forced his return to Leicester in January'''

Preseason
- excellent, well sourced and has no grammar errors

August to October
- this sentence September ended with Notts in third place, with 21 points from 10 matches. can be improved to 'September ended with Notts in third place, taking 21 points from 10 matches.'

- this sentence "By coincidence, Notts hosted Wrexham in their first meeting of the season three days later. The match attracted 10,741 spectators, and was won 1–0 by the Magpies through a 13th-minute goal by Langstaff, who was able to finish a well-worked free kick routine. This victory put Notts top of the table." can be merged, 'By coincidence, Notts hosted Wrexham in their first meeting of the season three days later. The match attracted 10,741 spectators, and was won 1–0 by the Magpies through a 13th-minute goal by Langstaff, who was able to finish a well-worked free kick routine, with the victory putting Notts top of the table.'

November-January
''The Magpies finished December with two home matches, the first a 2–0 win over Gateshead in which leading goal scorer Langstaff sustained an injury which kept him out of the following game. Notts fared well without their most prolific forward, defeating Oldham Athletic 4–1 on 26 December.'' this can be changed to The Magpies finished December with two home matches, the first a 2–0 win over Gateshead in which leading goal scorer Langstaff sustained an injury, keeping him out the following match; the second a 4–1 victory over Oldham Athletic on 26 December, playing well without their most prolific forward.

Playoffs
''when Jones's speculative effort from the edge of the penalty area found its way past McDonnell. Notts County won the match 3–2.'' when Jones's speculative effort from the edge of the penalty area found its way past McDonnell, giving Notts County a 3–2 victory in agonic fashion

FA Trophy
when Notts were caught in possession, and Roarie Deacon fired into an empty net from 45 yards. change to when Roarie Deacon fired into an empty net from 45 yards, after Notts were caught in possession.

Records and Awards
in great condition, well sourced

Aftermath and Legacy
- this sentence is missing a word while episode 12, "Hand of Foz" documented the Red Dragons's 3–2 win the second and decisive match

while episode 12, "Hand of Foz" documented the Red Dragons's 3–2 win in the second and decisive match

Overall
- article is well sourced throughout

- minimal grammar errors

- lead is too long

- some content is out of scope

this article is in good condition and i think it has GA or even FA potential.
