After a long-awaited return to the pitch, Tobi Adebayo-Rowling is back in action. The talented footballer has been out of the game for some time, but he's now ready to make his mark once again.  Fans were thrilled to see him take to the field, and he didn't disappoint. Tobi's return was met with cheers and applause from the crowd.  He's been a fan favourite for a while, and his absence was felt by many.

Notts County head coach Stuart Maynard has called for a strong response from his squad as they prepare for tomorrow's away fixture against Morecambe.  The Magpies head into the match on the back of their first defeat of the season, a narrow 1-0 loss to Gillingham. Despite this setback, County remain 4th in the League Two table, and Maynard is confident his side can return to winning ways. Reflecting on the defeat to Gillingham, Maynard expressed confidence in his squad's overall perfor

Another disappointing day for Notts fans, losing at home to local rivals Chesterfield who now sit comfortably in the play off places at 5th in the table. The big game of the day between MK Dons and Bristol City ended as a goalless draw. Swindon and Preston remain in 2nd and 4th place respectively with Oldham moving up to 6th replacing Sheffield United who fall to 7th. There was a League One game which end up being called off, however all the other remaining fixtur

Curtis Thompson has claimed that Oxford United’s second goal proved the turning point in Notts County’s 4-2 weekend defeat at Meadow Lane, because that is when their “heads dropped”. Liam Sercombe drew first blood with a penalty in the first half, but Jon Stead levelled on the hour. Thompson then struck 76 minutes in to put the Magpies in the lead, but just three minutes later Alex MacDonald scored the U’s second, before late goals from Ca

Notts County striker Jon Stead has claimed he would "love" manager Mark Cooper to be given the job permanently and hopes to be part of his plans should that be the case. The former Swindon Town boss is just one result away from triggering a clause which will guarantee a permanent contract offer from the club's owner Ray Trew. With one year left on his contract, Stead is hoping to help Cooper to get a result against Carlisle United on Saturday and subsequently feature in his plans next

Louis Laing has admitted that the Notts County dressing room was in higher spirits than it has been for the last few weeks after their 2-2 draw against League One side Peterborough United. The Magpies are languishing in the bottom six of League Two after four consecutive league defeats, prompting manager John Sheridan to cancel their Christmas party and pledge to play first-teamers in the reserves. However, Meadow Lane saw the hosts come from two goals down to salvage a draw against Po

Alan Hardy has vowed to keep using Twitter to interact with Notts County fans, but insists that abusive messages sent to him on the platform are not acceptable. The Magpies chairman often tweets updates about the club and engages with supporters, though he has sometimes come under criticism for doing so rather than using the official club site. He wrote in the Nottingham Post: "As the chairman and owner of Notts County, I am a firm believer that engaging with the fans is essential to m

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

Kevin Nolan has expressed his desire to manage at the top level some day but insists he is happy at Notts County at present. The 35-year-old has worked wonders for the Magpies since taking the job on January 12 this year, steering the club to safety last season and overseeing a rise up League Two which now sees the club second in the table. Speaking to BBC Sport, Nolan said: "The ultimate goal is to get to the top. But at this minute in time I have been given a fantastic opportunity to

Notts County will take on Doncaster Rovers and Grimsby Town in the group stage of the EFL Trophy. The Magpies have been placed in Group G of the competition’s Northern section, and will also play one academy side. The 48 EFL clubs have been placed into pre-determined groups, with consideration given to ensure travel time is minimised for supporters and recovery time is maximised for players. Players from EFL clubs who are out on loan in the National League and below are now eligib

At 7:45pm tonight, Bradford City will make a claim for a play-off place again, as they take on MK Dons at the Valley Parade. Then the rest of League One return to action the day after - Tuesday 10th of February. MK Dons are presented a chance to go top of the league, at least on a temporary basis. Both teams are hot in form and I believe this lively encounter could end up as a 2-2 draw. The Bantams will perhaps be classed as the underdogs, however The Dons manager

Prior to the game against Oxford United at Meadow Lane on the 2/1/2016, Notts-Joe and Joe Jones took the time to interview several fans regarding key matters relating to Notts. This covers the departure of Ricardo Moniz, possible further departures within the January transfer window, possible squad additions, who could come in to take the reigns at Meadow Lane and much more.   Catch up with all the latest content via our 'Ac

Hundreds of Notts County fans gathered outside Meadow Lane on Thursday to see the unveiling of the statue of club legends Jimmy Sirrel and Jack Wheeler. The memorial, situated between the Derek Pavis Stand and the Trent Navigation Inn pub, was revealed to about 200 supporters at midday. Jimmy and Jack – who took the Magpies from the old fourth division to the English top tier – have been immortalised in bronze after a campaign to raise more than £100,000 was launched in May 2010 follow

Notts County boss John Sheridan wants his players to "prove" their credentials ahead of a tough run of games. The Magpies face playoff-chasing Wycombe Wanderers at Meadow Lane on Saturday before travelling to Colchester United (in the league) and Peterborough United (in the FA Cup). Boxing Day, meanwhile, sees table-topping Doncaster Rovers come to Meadow Lane and, on New Year's Eve, Keith Curle will return to his old club with second-placed Carlisle United. "I'd like to see it as

Rob Milsom has expressed his desire to "put down roots" at Notts County after enjoying an impressive and award-winning season at Meadow Lane. The 30-year-old midfielder was voted the club's 2016-17 player of the year as well as the players' player of the year for his consistency in the middle of the park. His contract is up at the end of the season but manager Kevin Nolan has publicly declared that he wants to keep Milsom at the club. Now the former Rotherham United man says the f

Kevin Nolan has confirmed that Adam Collin has suffered ligament damage and is likely to be out for between two and three months. The 32-year-old limped off in the second half of the 2-1 win over Barnet earlier this month after injuring his knee. Scans have since revealed the extent of the damage and while Collin will not require surgery, he is set to be out for a minimum of eight weeks. “We are not talking about a long-term injury, we are talking about a medium one,” Nolan told t

Alan Hardy has described Notts County's 2-1 home win over Crawley Town last season as the game which transformed the mindsets of the players and set the tone for the New Era. Notts headed into the game on January 28 without a win in 13 league games, having lost 11 of them, and despite Hardy's takeover earlier that month, things still looked dire for the club. However, County emerged victorious as Jonathan Forte scored a late winner and gave his side their first league win since October

Kevin Nolan has stated that Notts County's 4-1 hammering by Derby County at Meadow Lane would have been a learning curve for his players. The Rams put the Magpies to the sword as Luke Thomas, Mason Bennett and Tom Huddlestone all scored, while Kane Hemmings scored a penalty for the hosts. “When you get beat 4-1 and you don’t have a lot of the ball then it’s difficult for the lads,” Nolan said at full time. “But it gives them great exposure in terms of out of possession stuff. “We

Charlie Slater, the well-known commentator for BBC Radio Nottingham, has announced his departure from his role as Notts County commentator via Twitter. Charlie, who took over the role on 5th August 2017 following the semi-retirement of the legendary Colin Slater, expressed his gratitude and honour in being Notts' new commentator.

Having made seven league appearances this season and earned one cap in 2023 for Grenada, Bedeau spoke about his journey at Notts so far and what it means to face his former club.

Notts County midfielder Liam Noble is attracting interest from Portsmouth and Cambridge United, according to reports. The mercurial 24-year-old is out of contract in the summer, and with less than six months remaining on his current deal, he can now talk to other clubs regarding a move away from Meadow Lane. According to the Nottingham Post, former Magpies boss Shaun Derry, now at Cambridge, is understood to be keen on linking up again wit

The date of the match against Notts' local rivals has been confirmed as Saturday 23rd July 2016, with a 3pm kick off.
