Notts County FC: Undeniable Heroes of the 2022-23 Season

[@BrasilianFury]

So it's been about two weeks since publishing this video and I just wanted to take the time to say thank you to everyone who's watched, commented, liked and subscribed to it. Hope you'll consider sticking around for more video essays like this down the line and other, fun Football Manager 23 related content in between. Thanks again!

[@James119Spring]

As a Notts fan, thank you for telling our story. Completely understand all the attention on Wrexham, but our story has been incredible. Having spent months waking up not knowing if we still had a club to support, this promotion meant so much

[@BrasilianFury]

Glad to have been able to do it as the Notts/Wrexham title fight was incredibly engaging to watch throughout the year. I'm also incredibly glad overall that the club did survive in order to be able to provide you all with moments like these...it's the kind of stuff that you sticks with you for a lifetime in the best way. ...Even if I'm still beyond astounded that Bostock missed that PK the way he did in the Final. 😂

[@theNCfanfromWestLothian]

Yoooo I'm a fellow County fan

[@thelordpizzaman3461]

THIS is what makes football special! Pure passion and not money

[@BrasilianFury]

Definitely!

[@kkronfli]

So glad Notts County got their promotion as well. A historic club with massive tradition and hopefully they will make their way steadily back up the leagues.

[@BrasilianFury]

I feel like they've got all the pieces in place to make a run at the top of League Two with the current manager and the ownership there. Would love to see it as well.

[@sadafhusain2059]

I once in football manager took notts county from league 2 to a established pl squad.took 7 seasons. Had a soft spot on my heart ever since

[@BrasilianFury]

Completely understandable - that game WILL do that to you haha. They might have to be my first FM24 save.

[@nigeldawson8797]

Really excellent review of our special club. Thank you. Nigel Dawson

[@BrasilianFury]

Thank you Nigel, glad you enjoyed it!

[@peterandben1]

what a fantastic interview so humble jobs are not about money we look forward for two years enjoying your skills. To his family respect they also allowed the decision

[@BrasilianFury]

This wasn't exactly an interview but I appreciate the kind comment.

[@MantleNotMouse]

The national league playoffs were insane this year. Was glad when Notts came out on top

[@BrasilianFury]

Same here! Absolutely crazy that it's only one automatic spot when a lot of the top teams in it could be holding their own in League Two, in my opinion at least.

As a Notts County fan, I didn’t have high expectations for a American doing a video on us. But this was good, well researched 👍⚫️⚪️⚫️⚪️⚫️

[@BrasilianFury]

Technically a Brazilian living in the U.S. but I see your point haha! Thank you for watching it!

[@justinbrooks-fj6vq]

I thought for a second this would lead into FM23 stuff but yeah, this was still very good!

[@BrasilianFury]

Thanks Justin!

[@paulthemagpie8605]

Notts history is mad , I've been a supporter for over 50 years of them, They gave Juventus there kit that's why they play in black and white stripes , It was a Notts supporter Herbert Kilpin who actually founded AC Milan , they are one of the most stressful teams to support but they are my team , not a bad vid welldone hat's off to you COYP

[@BrasilianFury]

It was one of the first bits I learned during my research and it was astounding to learn how close of a friendship the two clubs have got. Thanks for watching!

[@nicklynch8092]

What a fantastic video! Us Notts fans understand the attention Wrexham have been getting and we'd also tell you they are deserving of what has happened to them, but we are a brilliant club too and it has been nice to see the attention we've been getting since the final. I'm not old enough to have been at any of the play off finals in the '90s so to be able to go to this one and witness a piece of history first hand...I'll remember it as long as I live. COYP!

[@BrasilianFury]

Wembley seemed like an atmosphere and then some. While the path wasn't the easiest by any stretch, Notts pulling this off in front of more than 20,000 of their own supporters is like you said, something you'll remember as long as you live. Congrats on the promotion and thank you for watching!

[@fingersfinesilver]

Wonderful, not computer generated - big plus

[@BrasilianFury]

Thanks!

[@dads-army]

Great work still brings me to tears watching this i didnt see one penalty at Wembley had my head in my hands and the man in front telling me what will happen no wounder we get the title as the most stressed fans in football lol

[@BrasilianFury]

I’d probably be in a similar position if I were in your shoes under that environment too, for whatever it’s worth! 😂 Thank you for the kind words.

[@philkirk4571]

What a great video! Refreshingly different. Great to see the background to how we got to where we are now. You need to come down to the lane. Thanks for showing that there isn’t just Wrexham.

[@BrasilianFury]

I eventually need to get to Europe period in terms of traveling, so no doubt in my mind if that ever happens that I'd love to see a game in person.

[@stephennewton2893]

Great video, many thanks for your efforts.btw Jimmy Sirrel didn't play for Notts, he was our greatest manager though. Cheers.

[@BrasilianFury]

Yes, I should have made an extra note during it that his playing career wasn't with Notts (but the coaching career, 100%). Thank you so much for watching!

[@hangforh6320]

bloody hell. i came across this by accident i think? absolute quality, by far the best video yet!

[@BrasilianFury]

Thank you so much! It's definitely different from my previous gaming/FM23 stuff but this is an encouraging sign to try more of these video essays down the line haha

[@hangforh6320]

@@BrasilianFury you're obviously a talented guy, i wish you all the best in you're future. i'm on my third watch through. you nailed it.

[@jamesb5540]

Awesome job Notts County! Congratulations to the Club / Supporters. Very impressive seeing their success despite not having the same resources as Wrexham.

[@BrasilianFury]

They definitely have a great infrastructure in place on their end with the Reedtz brothers running the show and no doubt are gonna be a force in the EFL in their own style/method.

[@freeeagle4193]

Thanks for the video on our club, really well research. We’ve had our ups and downs since the turn of the century but this season has been something really special!!

[@BrasilianFury]

It really has. The English pyramid is a fascinating beast with quite a few teams who’ve fallen down from glory but not many who’ve begun to rise and have the infrastructure in place to really make a run at the top tiers of the pyramid in a few years. I’m glad you enjoyed it!

[@sabretooth8056]

As a lifelong Notts County fan, this was a great watch.....funny , informative and touching at times.....great work pal....👍👍

[@shanedenham713]

Thank you sooooo much for this insight into my football club. I went to my first game at the age of 4 and I am now 57 , and still a season ticket holder. I have experienced all of the highs and lows of this football club and continue to do so. Last season was the one season I will treasure for the rest of my life and you have told this story so incredibly well, Hats off to you sir and Thankyou .COYP ❤

[@paulbrain9804]

Sorry if this is too long. Having seen so many Vlogs and videos about this ridiculous season, I assumed this was just another, to cash in on You tube. How wrong was I? I am 51 years old from Gloucestershire (Yes there are fans outside of Nottingham) and have been an avid fan for 32 years. Of course we have had an epic battle this season with Wrexham, but it is so refreshing to hear an outsiders view of our club. This video says it all. May I say the Narration, Editing (especially cutting to the commentary of Bostcock's goal which added to the atmosphere) and above all Research of not only our club, but what it means to the fans this season. Plus you mentioned the passing of our CEO Jason Turner, who sadly missed out on his/our success. I'll be honest when I heard the american accent I thought "Oh here's another pretend Wexham soccerfan showing a bit of empathy". What a Knob am! Superb piece of journalism, let alone social media. I know you may not become a Notts Fan, but I will follow you and your team with interest. Obrigado.

[@BrasilianFury]

I can understand there's a level of skepticism when it comes to stuff like this (especially since I've lived more of my life in the U.S. compared to Brazil nowadays) but I'm glad that you got to enjoy the video itself as a fan of the club. That I was able to do some semblance of justice to the season that Notts County had is all I can ask for. Thanks again for taking the time to comment.

Glad you enjoyed it and congrats to your boys on the promotion. The team's definitely one that I feel can do a similar kind of work/have the success that Stockport did in League Two this year after getting themselves promoted, if not go beyond it.

[@RandomHeroXJack]

Really good mate! Was a huge positive to see two massively historical clubs in English League football return to where they belong... and Notts County's story of promotion is arguably more dramatic!

[@BrasilianFury]

Just the sheer levels of buffoonery on the management end that nearly got the club in administration twice and surviving that…even if Wrexham was in the National League longer, you could tell how much this meant for Notts County as a whole with the post-game celebrations and all.

[@richardsilverwood4350]

A run of 21 games unbeaten (16 wins and 5 draws) between September and February while scoring tones of goals. A goalless draw against Yeovil Town in November was the only match in all competitions in all season in which they failed to score.

[@BrasilianFury]

Yes, that was definitely a thing that happened.

[@HaraldTan]

I saw this one a few days ago and loved it too, Fury! You might need to do a part 2 on this if Notts keeps up their form and go up again next May.

[@BrasilianFury]

I'm thinking I may have to do just that, they've been on fire so far this season in L2.

[@danielfersbeanto7942]

My latest save in FM is Notts County where I brought them back to back promotion to EPL. Then I got hired by Everton mid season where they are on relegation battle just to beat Notts County to survive relegation. Inherited almost 600m debt in total between the club debt and the bank balance

[@BrasilianFury]

I’ve been playing my first big FM24 save with Notts to climb that ladder myself and it’s been a couple of fun videos to make so far

[@ltfc4ever88]

Loved seeing county return to the league. As a Luton Fan I will always remember their hospitality and class when we were promted from league 2 at Notts County. Proper Club, Proper Fans no Hollywood here lol

[@BrasilianFury]

Glad your experiences with Notts fans were a good one, although I'm not personally here for putting down a team due to their circumstances (Wrexham) over raising up another...but that's just me.
