New Notts County owner Alan Hardy heralds new start for club


Joe Jones

Alan Hardy has announced that he "finally got there" after a tense few days of negotiations to become Notts County's new owner.

The deal to take over the club was originally planned to go ahead on Monday, but the deal hit a snag following reports of a loan needing to be paid off.

Notts fans waited anxiously on Wednesday for an announcement regarding the future of the club, but at around half past 12 Hardy announced the news.

He posted on Twitter: "Finally got there guys, thank you for all your tremendous support! Now let's get this Club back where it belongs! New World starts today!", which the Notts page retweeted.

In addition, Hardy changed his profile on the social media platform back to "Chairman and owner of Notts County FC".

An official announcement, potentially about a new manager at Meadow Lane, is due on Thursday.
