Alan Hardy looking ahead to anniversary party as Notts County host Crewe Alexandra


Joe Jones

Alan Hardy has thanked the people of Nottingham for their support since the Notts County takeover was completed last January and is looking forward to a bumper crowd in today's anniversary League Two game with Crewe Alexandra.

The Magpies have been on an upward trajectory over the last 12 months, going from relegation scrappers to promotion chasers as well as still having a chance of reaching the fifth round of the FA Cup.

The January transfer window was also fruitful as three midfielders, one centre-back and one forward came in, but Hardy is eager to concentrate on the football, beginning with today.

"I'm very happy with the business we have done over the last month and I think Mason and Ben will be excellent additions to the squad moving forward," Hardy wrote in his Nottingham Post column.

"Now all the transfer business has been completed until the summer, we can concentrate on the football.

"As you may have read, for this weekend's game against Crewe we are expecting an incredible crowd - the biggest since Tottenham came to the Lane in 1994.

"Obviously, reducing ticket prices to £2 has been the catalyst but I wanted to say 'thank you' to the people of Nottingham for their support since I bought the club just over a year ago.

"I have been overwhelmed by the number of well-wishes, not only from Notts fans but the wider Nottingham public.

"I hope it will be a truly spectacular anniversary party! Come on you Pies!"
