Alan Hardy looking forward to gripping end to League Two season

Alan Hardy is delighted with Notts County's "incredible journey" so far and is looking forward to a "gripping end" to the League Two campaign.

The Magpies appeared to be heading out of automatic promotion contention but last Saturday's win over Stevenage and Coventry City's win over Wycombe Wanderers reduced the gap from fourth to third to one point.

Hardy, discussing the postponed game against Cheltenham Town, told the Nottingham Post:  "At least we won’t have to wait long before we can attempt to build on our win over Stevenage last weekend.

"Results elsewhere largely went for us, too, so it was a very profitable afternoon as we leapt up a place to fourth, one point behind Wycombe.

"The league is going to be extremely tight and I have to say Coventry did us a huge favour by winning at Wycombe on Tuesday night.

"Accrington are still in second but, having had a look at their fixtures, statistically they have the hardest run in.

"They have all the top seven to play so it’s going to be a gripping end to the season with lots of twists and turns.

"All we have to do is ensure we take care of our own results and see where that takes us.

"We have had an excellent season so far and our destiny is very much in our own hands.

"It’s already been an incredible journey and it would be fantastic if we reach our destination ahead of schedule."
