Ian Burchnall names Notts County team for season's opener at Barnet

Notts County head coach started his three big guns for the clash against Barnet this afternoon as the Magpies looked to get off to the perfect start in the National League.

Kyle Wootton, Callum Roberts and Ruben Rodrigues all started the game at the Hive as Burchnall also gave full league debuts to Kyle Cameron, Joel Taylor, Matt Palmer and Ed Francis.

As usual, Burchnall named a 3-5-2 formation with Sam Slocombe in goal behind the back three of Connell Rawlinson, Richard Brindley and Cameron.

Dion Kelly-Evans and Taylor were handed wing-back responsibilities while in the centre of midfield, Francis, Palmer and Roberts made up the trio.

Up front Wootton was joined by Rodrigues in attack.

On the subs bench were Eli Sam, Adam Chicksen, Aaron Nemane, Jim O'Brien and Kairo Mitchell.
