Notts County were robbed of victory at Coventry Cityβs Ricoh Arena as Kevin Nolanβs men had to settle for a 1-1 draw in the first leg of their League Two playoff semi-final.
The Magpies led through Jonathan Forteβs deft second-half finish and looked on course to record a morale-boosting victory to put them in pole position for Wembley.

Marc McNulty stroked home the spotkick, sending Adam Collin the wrong way, to send the Sky Blues into next Fridayβs Meadow Lane showdown on level terms.
Pride of Nottingham vlogger ARLukomski was at the game, and in his latest video, he shares his thoughts before, during, and after what shall henceforth be known as the Coventry Screwjob.
