John Sheridan has pledged to "work his socks off" to help Notts County get promoted, beginning with improving their home record.

The Magpies have won just once at Meadow Lane in the league this season, with their last home game ending in farce as Newport County claimed a 3-0 win.

"I never expected us to be this poor at home, not in my wildest dreams," Sheridan said to the Nottingham Post. "We need to do a lot better.

"I don't like people watching us when we aren't being a good team. I don't like people shouting my name because it hurts me. It bothers me. I want to be winning all the time.

"I can promise the fans they will get everything from me. I haven't come here to be middle of the table in League Two, I've come here to get us out of this league.

"I will work my socks off to do it too."

Notts face their former manager Shaun Derry and his Cambridge United side on Tuesday night.

I don't know your passion or desire John, but please make sure the 'players' work their socks off in order to gain promotion. If they are wearing almost perfect conditioned socks by full time, get rid in January and sign true grafters.

I don't doubt that he works hard, but can we stop talking about promotion for a while? We're 15th for Pete's sake. Let's get to 50 points first, and if there's enough time left over to reach 70 maybe we can start talking about it again.

Agree with DangerousSausage , we are a long way off that hoped for goal , league status is the goal , we must remain , this is a huge job for JS make no mistake on that .
