Speculation has emerged that former Manchester City, Crystal Palace and Reading manager Steve Coppell is in line to become Jamie Fullarton’s assistant at Notts County.

The 60-year-old was at the Magpies’ last home game against Leyton Orient, while Notts chief executive Julian Winter revealed Fullarton is "in dialogue" with somebody over the position.

Asked directly if the person he is speaking to about the No.2 role is Coppell, Fullarton appeared to sidestep the question by replying: "It is important that we bring in people with the right skill set that complements and supplements what we already have in the building.

"We have a lot of very good staff at the moment that bring something different. So that's our job over a period to assess and then hopefully add to what we have."

    Is this a clever move so that we have someone to act as caretaker when the manager merry go round starts again.

    If coppell is to be jf's assistant i feel it could be an excellent appointment. He certainly is a big name the fans have been crying out for, on our budget we are not going to get massive, he has the experience and could be a great assit to the club, he could also be a better Pr man than what Fullerton is. It's a yes from me
