The former Lincoln City man has seen little game action in recent weeks but made the starting XI at Whaddon Road and repaid his manager's faith with his side's goal. "It's been while for him and Terry has had to bide his time because of the quality we have in the squad," Nolan told the Nottingham Po

The club captain needed surgery to repair his cruciate ligament and his meniscus following a blow suffered in last April's 3-1 defeat to Portsmouth at Meadow Lane. However, O'Connor has made a return to full training and played 45 minutes of a behind-closed-doors friendly against Scunthorpe United on Monday. Magpies boss Nolan has been delighted at ho

Kevin Nolan has described referee Graham Horwood as "an absolute shambles" following his performance in Notts County's 1-1 draw with Cheltenham Town on Tuesday night. The Magpies boss was unhappy with an incident in the 17th minute when Jon Stead was brought down by goalkeeper Scott Flinders in the box, only for a penalty not to be given. Stead went on to assist Terry Hawkridge for the game's opening goal shortly before the break, but the Robins equalised in the second half through Joe

Alan Hardy has revealed that Notts County will subsidise coach travel for the club's fans making the trip to watch the game at Chesterfield later this month. The Magpies owner says it is a way of “showing our gratitude for those who follow us up and down the land”, with official club travel being priced at £5 for the match on Sunday, March 25. The game is being shown live on television, but Hardy hopes the special offer will encourage as many supporters as possible to watch it in perso

Kevin Nolan has rubbished suggestions of the wheels having fallen off Notts County's League Two promotion campaign and stressed that they are in a very good place at the minute. Just 12 points separate second-placed Accrington Stanley and 10th-placed Lincoln City and, with 10-12 games left of the season depending on the team, the stage is set for a gripping promotion race. “There will be a lot of expectation and you just hope that does not transmit itself onto the pitch,” he told the N

Finnigan, who came through the ranks at the City Ground, wrote: "Memories of living in Nottingham will come flooding ba

Jorge Grant has claimed that his season at Notts County has gone better than expected and insists he is close to reaching his individual targets. The Magpies midfielder, on loan from Nottingham Forest, scored his 18th goal of the season last weekend as he came off the bench to help inspire a 2-0 win over Stevenage. Grant scored 16 goals before Christmas but then experienced a barren run in front of goal which now seems to have been put to bed, but he still feels he can improve. “I

Kevin Nolan has claimed that Matty Virtue should return to Notts County “full of confidence” after scoring for Liverpool Under-23s and believes the Reds youth captain will make successful contributions for his loan club. Virtue bagged the first goal for Neil Critchley’s team which lost 2-1 to Porto B in the Premier League International Cup last Wednesday. The 20-year-old, who is eligible to play games for his parent club's youth side despite being on loan, is now back at Meadow Lane.

Alan Hardy had previously spoken about having pursued an unnamed Spanish player, but added that the move fell through due to wages and the player picked a switch to an Italian club. Nonetheless, reports emerged on Saturday night from the Daily Mail and the Sun suggesting that County have offered Capel £10,000-per-week wages plus £5,000 per played game until the end of the season. The reporte

Kevin Nolan is hoping for an upturn in Notts County's performances after admitting last week's win over Stevenage helped the players get the "buzz" back in training this week. The Magpies have 11 games left of the League Two campaign and they remain well in the promotion hunt. The 2-0 win over Boro was followed up by third-placed Wycombe Wanderers losing at home to Coventry City in midweek which keeps Nolan’s side just a point behind an automatic promotion slot. Although this week

In contrast to January, which went super slow, February was a blink-and-you'll-miss-it month, but there was plenty to digest on the Notts County news front. In this article, Pride of Nottingham recaps all the key events from the month. 3 February Notts County put in one of their best performances of the season in front of the biggest Meadow Lane crowd of the 21st century - 17,274 people in total - in a 4-1 win over Crewe Alexandra.

Notts County attacker Jorge Grant has hit out at the fans who have criticised his performances in recent weeks and insists that he thrives on pressure in terms of performances and scoring goals. The 23-year-old came off the bench against Stevenage last week to net the opening goal in what ended as a 2-0 win. The goal was his first since his all-important equaliser at Lincoln City in mid-January, a long wait for his 18th of the season, and he celebrated by putting his fingers in his ear

Alan Hardy has revealed how Notts County were on the brink of signing a Spanish forward on a free transfer earlier this week. However, the move broke down because the wages agreed "needed to be net of tax, not gross". The Magpies have been on the lookout for a new forward following Mason Bennett's injury and subsequent surgery forcing him to return to parent club Derby County. “I think our search for a player who is currently unattached has been well documented,” Hardy told the No

Alan Hardy is delighted with Notts County's "incredible journey" so far and is looking forward to a "gripping end" to the League Two campaign. The Magpies appeared to be heading out of automatic promotion contention but last Saturday's win over Stevenage and Coventry City's win over Wycombe Wanderers reduced the gap from fourth to third to one point. Hardy, discussing the postponed game against Cheltenham Town, told the Nottingham Post: "At least we won’t have to wait long before we c
