Notts County recorded their first National League away win of the season with a comfortable 4-1 victory over surprise strugglers, Halifax Town.
It took until the last five minutes of the first half for an injection of life in what was a dull encounter at The Shay Stadium, with Macaulay Langstaff and Sam Austin combining for the Notts number nine to slide the ball beyond Sam Johnson.
And the partnership that was so clinical in the National League North last term replicated the first of hopefully many goals this season, with Cedwyn Scott doing brilliantly to anticipate Jim O'Brien's deflected cross to nod the ball in at the near post to give the Magpies a two-goal cushion.
