Kevin Nolan pleased to welcome Shola Ameobi back into Notts County fold


Joe Jones

Kevin Nolan has expressed his delight with Shola Ameobi's return for Notts County, but insists he will not rush him back into action.

The former Newcastle United forward had not played for the Magpies since injuring his hamstring in the win over Morecambe.

However, Ameobi was given more than 20 minutes on the pitch in the derby with Mansfield Town, and Nolan says his return gives him more attacking talent at his disposal.

“Shola’s return is great as it gives us more options,” Nolan told the Nottingham Post.

“We are now at the point where, with the exception of Dan Jones, we are a fully-fit squad.

“He (Shola) has done a lot of work, but we are not going to rush him because we don’t want a recurrence of his injury.

“We are delighted how quick he has come back and it just shows that the work he did in pre-season enabled him to be strong and ready to go against Mansfield.”
