Mark Cooper wants to keep Liam Noble at Notts County

Majority of Notts fans would love to see Noble remain, no doubt he's one of our better players when he's performing well. Yet even when he doesn't he's worth a place on the bench, as he has the ability to change games and is one of the better passers in the lower leagues.

I do think his set pieces have been poor, however so has the majority of players.

Sign him up Notts!

I'm not surprised Derry at Cambridge is keeping tabs on things at Notts, especially Liam. Portsmouth should have the dollars to lure him, as they are arguably the tallest school-boy in the yard, in what is the old Division Four, as I still call it.

Noble possesses a tenacity, which, if properly channelled, brings a necessary edge to things in midfield over the course of a season. His ability to strike a ball well is also a very handy thing at this level.

In order for us to hang on to him, a couple of things need to happen. 

We should accrue the necessary league points in order to trigger a clause for Cooper-man to manage Notts next season. The other thing is the small detail of ownership.
