Notts County cancel end-of-season awards night after Notts County Ladies fold

Notts County have confirmed that they will not be having an end-of-season awards night out of respect for the demise of Notts County Ladies.

On Friday, the Magpies announced that the ladies' club would be folding just days before the start of the Spring Series, putting its players - many of whom are internationals - out of a job.

As a result, Alan Hardy believes a celebration of the achievements of the club - whose men's team is now safe in League Two after months of relegation struggles - would be inappropriate.

Hardy told the official Notts site: “It’s been a very difficult week for everyone connected with Notts County – players, staff and fans.

"While Kevin and his team deserve recognition for all their hard work, I don’t think it’s right that we go ahead with an event of this nature.”

The site goes on to add that supporters who have booked their place at the dinner will be contacted by the club’s commercial department, with more information to follow in due course, while the awards will now be presented at this weekend’s match against Blackpool.

    We normally don't have award nights when we struggle, so despite the turn around under Kevin Nolan - its probably the right thing to do but I'm not sure the ladies needs mentioning at all. I'm 99% certain it would cause them more annoyance than anything, so I do think people on FB summed it up.

    Words escape me with the quoted part.

    Kevin Nolan and the players have had recognition for saving the club from the drop which seemed impossible, cancelling the season awards is a different thing in my book.
