Notts County winger Jodi Jones is aiming to add more goals to his game this season as the Magpies prepare for their first home league fixture of the campaign against Salford City at Meadow Lane. Speaking ahead of the match, Jones discussed his role under head coach Martin Paterson, the competition within the squad, and the team’s ambitions for promotion.

The Malta international winger, who was pivotal last season, believes the squad is now in an even stronger position to challenge at the top of League Two. “I think we’ve improved in the areas we needed to,” Jones commented. “We’ve added some quality players, and you can see it in the way we’re playing. We’re confident, b

Notts County's imaginative midfielder, Jodi Jones, recently took centre stage at a press conference, providing a captivating glimpse into the exhilarating yet challenging world of balancing club and international football. His insights painted a vibrant portrait of his remarkable adaptability and commitment to the sport. Upon his return to Meadow Lane following his international tour, Jones brought back a wealth of experiences and a renewed spirit. The press conference served as a platform

In a heart-to-heart chat before the match, Notts County’s dynamic midfielder, John Bostock, opened up about his feelings on making a comeback to the field after a month’s hiatus. He also shed light on the team’s aspirations for the season ahead. Bostock couldn’t hide his joy at returning to the field, saying, "It's always nice when I got injured against Mansfield. It was a blow; I was really disappointed, but the staff have been brilliant." He acknowledged the support of the rehabilitation

John Bostock, the Notts County player, spoke about the character and belief of his team ahead of their away game against Doncaster Rovers this weekend. In an interview, Bostock talked about how Notts County have taken a lot of character from last season into this season.  "People know if you watch us play we're quite known for our style, try to control games and break things down, and it's quite clear," he said. But Bostock emphasised that character and hard work are just as impor

Notts County today have confirmed the signing of John Cofie on loan from Manchester United. John spent time earlier in the season with Sheffield United where he scored 2 goals in 16 appearances. He's a young striker at the age of 20, hopefully adding some hunger to our squad. Notts agreed terms on Thursday with United and he travelled to Meadow Lane on Friday morning to complete his move. He is the first signing under caretaker manager Chris Kiwomya, who has signed in a fairly decent pros

Accrington Stanley manager John Coleman has suggested that Notts County may be too big for League Two ahead of the fixture between the two clubs tonight. The Magpies and their next opponents have both started the season with a tally of two wins and a defeat, and either side would go top of the fledgling table for a day at least with a win. “It has all the makings for a really expansive game,” Coleman told the official Stanley website. “Two attacking sides who will both expect to be up

Notts County manager John Sheridan has claimed that he would have booed his own side alongside the supporters following their Accrington Stanley defeat. The Magpies were jeered off the pitch by the Meadow Lane faithful as their four-match unbeaten came to an end with Saturday's meek 2-0 loss against the Lancashire side. "I understand the supporters as the performance didn't merit appreciation," Sheridan told BBC Radio Nottingham. "I wasn't happy watching it. I could've booed. But

Notts County manager John Sheridan has claimed that he is done with experimenting with two different formations in one game following his side's pre-season friendly defeat against Nottingham Forest. More than 9,000 fans from both sides of the Trent attended the testimonial game for Magpies defender Mike Edwards as goals from Ben Osborn and Jamie Paterson came either side of an Alex Rodman strike. Sheridan started the game with a 3-5-2 formation, but switched to a 4-1-3-2 after the brea

Notts County manager John Sheridan says he will consider selecting different players away from home. The Magpies began their League Two season with a 2-0 defeat at Yeovil Town, prompting the veteran boss to consider which of his squad may be more effective on the road. "Hopefully there aren't one or two players in the comfort zone thinking they will play all the time because I just won't do that," Sheridan said. "We haven't got a best player at this club, they are all evenly match

Notts County manager John Sheridan has claimed that he is hoping to make more signings in the very near future following the acquisition of goalkeeper Adam Collin. The former Newport County boss has admitted he is looking to strengthen all over the pitch, particularly in defence, but stressed the importance of competition within the squad. Sheridan told the official website: "I want competition all over the pitch. I don't want anyone thinking they're an automatic choice, that's not the

Notts County boss John Sheridan says he is "gutted" at being knocked out of the EFL Trophy after losing to Sunderland's reserves on Wednesday. "I am a bit gutted because I thought we played really well," he told the Nottingham Post. "They are a good team and have some good young players with one or two who have first-team experience. "I am surprised we ended up losing the game. Once we scored, Smudge had a great chance to make it two and it would have been game over. "I just

John Sheridan has praised his Notts County side for their performance in their 2-0 EFL Cup first-round defeat at Scunthorpe United, saying the players should have got something from the game. The Magpies took their opponents to extra time after a goalless draw at Glanford Park, but Kevin van Keen's brace sent Notts home with nothing to show for their exploits. "I don't know whether to laugh or cry," Sheridan told reporters. "We had some great chances to score and we made good openings

Notts County manager John Sheridan has refused to blame Vadaine Oliver for failing to convert a late penalty in Saturday's League Two goalless draw against Luton Town. A foul on Haydn Hollis in the final ten minutes of the game gave the Magpies a chance to edge ahead, but goalkeeper Christian Walton was able to make the save and help the visitors to a point. "I am disappointed we haven't come away with three points and for any neutral watching the game they would have seen two decent t

Notts County manager John Sheridan has admitted that fans are needing to "get over" the season just gone, but says he is doing all he can to bring new players to the club. The 2015-16 campaign was nothing short of traumatic for Magpies supporters as unrest in the stands and behind the scenes collided with unacceptable performances on the pitch in the club's first season back in League Two for five years. Sheridan told the Nottingham Post: "It's still early days but I am really looking

John Sheridan admits that he fears for his job as Notts County continue to freefall down the League Two table. The Magpies lost their fifth consecutive league game as Wycombe Wanderers won 2-0 on Saturday in a controversial clash at Meadow Lane. Although Sheridan was highly critical of referee Eddie Ilderton for his "atrocious" performance, he still acknowledges that his side is not playing well enough. "I'm the manager and we're losing a lot more games than I thought we would. I'

Notts County manager John Sheridan has pledged to bring continuity to the team's defence next season, calling on the players to learn and understand "each other's strengths and weaknesses". The Magpies struggled for consistency at the back last season as more than 25 different defensive line-ups took to the field. Sheridan, however, said the same wouldn't be happening this season, telling the Nottingham Post: "When I was looking at Notts County last season when I was managing at Newpor

Notts County manager John Sheridan has claimed that new loan signing Aaron Collins will provide pace in attack and expects him to challenge for a first-team place right away. The Wolverhampton Wanderers forward is on loan until January and he will go straight into the squad for Saturday's game against Grimsby Town at Meadow Lane. "He's a young player and has a lot of potential," Sheridan told reporters. "He's quick and can play up front or play wide right. "He will be really

Oldham Athletic manager John Sheridan has been installed as the odds-on favourite to take the job at Notts County. The 51-year-old is currently under contract at the League One club, but has been touted as a contender for the Leeds United job. Sheridan has held three different managerial jobs in the past three seasons. In addition to Oldham, he has spent time at Newport County and ended his two year stint at Plymouth Argyle prior to that, before returning to Boundary Park in January fo

Notts County boss John Sheridan has described his team as "a charity case" that keeps giving gifts away to the opposition. The Magpies missed out on a bumper FA Cup third-round tie at Chelsea after losing 2-0 at Peterborough United in Tuesday's second-round replay. Goals from Gwion Edwards and Paul Taylor in the first eight minutes of the game set Posh on their way to a comfortable victory at the ABAX Stadium. "The way we started the game, it's a massive downer," the Notts boss to

Notts County managed John Sheridan has claimed that his side is more than capable of winning promotion from League Two thanks to the recruitment of players with strong personalities who have achieved success in the past. The Magpies fell short last season, finishing in the bottom half of the table after relegation from League One, but the new boss has made a number of signings with experience and leadership qualities. "I think it's important we get strong personalities in the dressing
