Macaulay Langstaff says record breaking strike was best for Notts County this season

Macaulay Langstaff has written himself into Notts County folklore with his goal against Altrincham taking him out on his own as the club's leading goal-scorer in a singular league campaign.

The record had stood for 92 years, but the Magpies number nine was able to overtake Tom Keetley's total of 39 for a league season, also going level with the National League record of 40 league goals in one season set by Dover's Ricky Miller.

His strike at the J. Davidson Stadium did come with its controversy however, with John Bostock's quick free-kick after a foul on Ruben Rodrigues surprising everyone in red and white, with Langstaff finishing beyond Ollie Byrne to give Luke Williams' side the lead.
