Notts County vs.
Bradford City game!
Let's hear your thoughts and predictions.
By Joe Jones
Alan Hardy has thanked Notts County's fans for getting behind the new owner and increasing the Meadow Lane gates by almost 70 percent since his arrival.
Writing in an exclusive column for the Nottingham Post, Hardy said: "Securing our Football League status has been my ultimate focus since assuming ownership at Notts County.
"But bringing the crowds back to Meadow Lane has been a huge, huge part of that objective.
"I cannot begin to tell you how proud I am that Kevin Nolan and the players have been gathering those precious points.
"And how delighted and humbled I am with the response from Notts County supporters and the whole of the public of Nottingham and Nottinghamshire.
"I'm informed that for the six home games since the takeover was completed, we have averaged 7,350 fans per fixture . A truly marvellous achievement.
"Compare this with the average crowd from August to January which was 4,380. That's an average of 2,790 extra fans per game - or, put another way, an increase of 68 per cent.
"Stand up Notts County fans and take a bow. You deserve it."
