Haydn Hollis has hailed Notts County's performance in their 3-1 win over Colchester United, describing every player as "a different class", but urges all the players to keep their feet on the ground. The Magpies put in arguably their best home display of the season in seeing off the U's and remain 13 points clear of the bottom two in League Two with just six games remaining. Hollis, who opened the scoring early in the encounter, told the Nottingham Post: It was a top performance and on

Notts County manager Kevin Nolan has spoken of how happy he is working at a club on an upward trajectory and with a supportive chairman. One of Alan Hardy's first major moves since taking over the Magpies was to replace John Sheridan with Nolan, whose only previous managerial experience came at Leyton Orient. The decision to bring Nolan in has paid dividends as he has masterminded a complete turnaround in form at Meadow Lane, taking the club from the brink of relegation to almost-confi

Carl Dickinson has revealed that he would get so miserable during Notts County's 10-match losing run in League Two that he couldn't even speak to his family after games. The Magpies lost every single league fixture between November 12, a 4-0 defeat at Blackpool, until January 7, a 4-1 loss at Morecambe. The rot was stopped with a goalless home draw with Mansfield Town on January 14, and 10 weeks later, Notts are a different proposition entirely, on the brink of safety with a 13-point c

Notts County manager Kevin Nolan has claimed that any potential recruit will not be taken on should they have doubts about moving to Meadow Lane. With the club on the brink of safety in League Two, the former Leyton Orient boss is now looking at how to shape his squad for next season, with just five players - Adam Collin, Michael O'Connor, Carl Dickinson, Matt Tootle and Jonathan Forte - on a contract past the summer. Nolan is expected to offer deals to some of his current squad, with

Kevin Nolan has urged Premier League academy prospects to consider making switches to Football League teams, where they can get first-team action in challenging environments rather than remain in the "no-pressure" environment academies. The Notts County manager recruited a number of top-flight youngsters on loan in January, as Arsenal's Marc Bola, Hull City's Josh Clackstone and West Bromwich Albion's Tahvon Campbell switched to Meadow Lane. Bola has already spoken of how he is improvi

Alan Hardy has spoken in favour of the EFL Trophy, believing in its goal of nurturing young English talent, but insists that it needs the support of every team in the Premier League. The competition, known as the Checkatrade Trophy for sponsorship purposes, has come under intense criticism this season after Premier League academy teams were entered into the tournament. A number of League One and Two clubs have fined for picking weakened teams, while Bradford City changed their goalkeep

Notts County boss Kevin Nolan has expressed sadness at the plight of former club Leyton Orient. The 34-year-old was appointed as player-manager at Brisbane Road in January 2016, but despite winning seven of his 15 games in charge, was downgraded to player when Andy Hessenthaler took the reins in April. A further three months passed before Nolan left the club altogether, and Orient's loss was County's gain as he has so far taken the Magpies from the brink of relegation to the brink of s

Alan Hardy has revealed that Notts County will not break even before 2022, but admits that he is thoroughly enjoying the challenge of being chairman and has no regrets. Hardy said Notts were losing £1.6m a year when he took over in January, but insisted the club was making progress off the pitch after having put things right on it. "It is step in the right direction, but it is still a lot of money we are losing every year. The whole business model has to change," Hardy told BBC Radio N

Notts County goalkeeper Scott Loach has expressed surprise that Vadaine Oliver did not remain at Meadow Lane or switch to another Football League club in January. Oliver completed a loan switch to the Magpies at the start of the season, but returned to parent club York City early in the year after one goal in 25 appearances. Since then, he has scored five times and recorded four assists in 14 outings for the Minstermen, who are in the National League. Loach, who has made a loan sw

Kevin Nolan has reiterated that Notts County must not get into the mindset of having done their job following their 1-0 win at Wycombe Wanderers on Saturday. Shola Ameobi's goal proved enough for the Magpies to claim all three points at Adams Park, putting them 13 points clear of the League Two relegation zone. Many Notts fans have breathed a sigh of relief at the distance between the club and basement sides Newport County and Leyton Orient, whose recent form has been wretched to say t

The feelgood factor around Notts County continues as Shola Ameobi praised his teammates, in particular strike partner Jon Stead, as well as miracle worker Kevin Nolan. The Magpies are 13 points clear of the League Two bottom two with seven games to go, and although safety is not mathematically certain, it has allowed fans to breathe a lot easier, in particular with the downturn in form of basement sides Newport County and Leyton Orient. Ameobi, who scored the winner in County's 1-0 win

Kevin Nolan has described Notts County's performance in their 1-0 win over Wycombe Wanderers as "absolutely fantastic", but is not getting carried away with regards to the issue of League Two safety. The Magpies are now 13 points clear of the division's bottom two after Shola Ameobi netted the winner in Saturday's victory at Adams Park. With Newport County and Leyton Orient struggling for form and entrenched in the relegation places with just seven games to go, many Notts fans and pund

Kevin Nolan has urged the Notts County players to build on their impressive home form by translating it to away fixtures as well. The Magpies are 10 points clear of the bottom two in League Two and head to Wycombe Wanderers hoping to extend that gap by securing victory over Gareth Ainsworth's side. All of Nolan's defeats so far have come on the road, but with eight games left of the season, the manager is eager to build on that aspect over the next few weeks, beginning at Adams Park on

Marc Bola has given a positive assessment of his loan spell at Notts County so far, believing himself to be improving as a player. The Arsenal loanee also urges fellow Premier League academy prospects to consider making switches to the Football League, where they can get first-team action in challenging environments. In an interview with the Nottingham Post, the full-back said: "It's been great for me to come here and get experience. There is a difference in terms of the facilities but

Kevin Nolan says Scott Loach's loan move to York City will enable him to keep tabs of the goalkeeper in first-team action and make a decision on him at the end of the season. The 28-year-old former England Under-21 international, who has made just seven appearances for the Magpies this season, sealed the switch to Bootham Crescent on Wednesday. Nolan admits that Loach, whose deal at Meadow Lane is up at the end of the season, was desperate to play first-team football, but has been "fir

Wycombe Wanderers manager Gareth Ainsworth has claimed that Notts County are "in good hands" with Alan Hardy as their owner and Kevin Nolan as head coach. The Chairboys, dark horses for a League Two playoff spot, will be welcoming the Magpies to Adams Park on Saturday. Ainsworth is impressed with how Notts have turned their season around since Hardy took over the club, admitting that they are a "totally different" side to the one that lost 2-0 at Meadow Lane in December. "Kevin No

Notts County owner Alan Hardy has claimed that the club's playing budget for next season is likely to be "top four". In addition, he believes that, with the added funds, the Magpies can have a tilt at the top seven in 2017-18. Hardy told the Nottingham Post: "We looked at our one to three-year plan earlier in the week and asked 'could we be more optimistic in terms of the crowd numbers?'. "I think we can be. The more people we attract through the gates, the more money we generate

Michael O'Connor is the latest player to hail Kevin Nolan for his positive impact on the Notts County players' confidence and in turn the team's form. "When we were on that 10 game losing streak, a few of the lads went into their shells," he told the Nottingham Post. "But since the gaffer has come in, he's put arms around all of us. "The confidence is back and you only have to look at Richard Duffy to see that. He's been our best player since the gaffer came in and big H (Haydn Hollis)

Kevin Nolan has hailed "another great team performance" by Notts County in their 1-0 win over Barnet, adding that they reacted well after Mark Yeates's early red card. Matt Tootle's second-half goal proved the difference between the two sides at Meadow Lane on Sunday, but the Magpies were made to work for it after Yeates was controversially sent off. Nolan told the OS: "It was another great team performance. If anything, the red card sparked us into life - the reaction from the lads wa

Matt Tootle is optimist that a "strange season" for Notts County can end on a high note after moving 11 points clear of the League Two drop zone. The Magpies put in an immense performance to claim a 1-0 win over Barnet at Meadow Lane on Sunday, Tootle scoring a second-half winner. Kevin Nolan's charges were visibly exhausted at the end of the game, having been a man down for most of the game after Mark Yeates was sent off early on by referee Keith Stroud. Tootle told the official

Notts County boss Kevin Nolan says he will not be monitoring Saturday's League Two results, insisting that the team will be responsible for its own destiny. The Magpies are playing on Sunday this week, due to scheduling conflicts with regards to the team on the other side of the Trent. It means some of County's relegation rivals have a chance to close the gap on Nolan's side, who are currently eight points above the bottom two, Nolan, however, admits he will use the occasion to ha

Haydn Hollis has praised Notts County manager Kevin Nolan for giving him a lot of confidence and changing the mentality in the dressing room. Since Nolan took over at Meadow Lane, alongside Alan Hardy's acquisition of the club, the Magpies have gone from League Two relegation certainties to being well in with a chance of staying up. "Personally, he has given the squad a lot of confidence; he has given me a lot of confidence," Hollis told the Nottingham Post. "He has said some good
