Notts County have signed West Bromwich Albion attacker Tahvon Campbell on loan until the end of the season. The 20-year-old came through the ranks at the Hawthorns and became a senior player in 2015. He is yet to make a first-team appearance for the Baggies but has spent time on loan at Kidderminster Harriers and Yeovil Town. Magpies manager Kevin Nolan told the official site: "Tahvon comes to us highly recommended. "He will bring pace and power to our attack, either from wid

Notts County were thrashed 3-0 by a Carlisle United side playing at Preston North End's stadium in front of 3,067 Cumbrians fans who made the 85-mile trip. A Danny Grainger penalty and two Jabo Ibehre goals were enough for victory at Deepdale, which staged the game after flood damage at Brunton Park. Was the result fair? The score line is fair, Notts didn’t do enough to warrant anything from the game and Carlisle looked like scorin

Notts County secured a comfortable victory against Doncaster on a windy summer afternoon, with Macaulay Langstaff scoring his first English Football League goals and Jodi Jones adding a third. Langstaff scored with a volley and header on either side of half-time, while Jones sealed the win with an excellent finish in front of a packed away end. Doncaster managed to score a late consolation goal, but it did little to dampen the spirits of Notts County as they claimed their second win of the seaso

Notts County secured a hard-earned point in their match against Morecambe on Tuesday, with the game ending in a goalless draw. Despite Notts County's sustained pressure, neither team could find the back of the net, with Jodi Jones coming closest when his volley struck the bar in the second half. Notts County manager Luke Williams made three changes to the side that triumphed over Grimsby at Meadow Lane on Saturday, introducing Jim O’Brien, Aiden Baldwin, and Adam Chicksen into the starting

Notts County dismayed and delighted in equal measure on Saturday by beating Newport County 4-3 in their League Two clash at Meadow Lane. The Exiles struck twice in the opening 10 minutes through Mark Byrne and Alex Rodman, but the Magpies were level by the break through Liam Noble and Izale McLeod. The former Crawley man nodded in midway through the first half to put Notts ahead, but Newport levelled with just six minutes to play through Scott Boden. Just when it s

Notts County secured a 2-1 victory over Tranmere Rovers at Meadow Lane. David McGoldrick netted an early goal for the Magpies with a low strike from the edge of the box.  In the second half, Connell Rawlinson extended their lead by tapping in Matt Palmer’s cross from close range.  Tranmere Rovers put up a fight towards the end, with Josh Hawkes successfully converting Paul Lewis' delivery to give them hope. However, Notts County held their ground and ultimately emerged victorious. 

After taking the lead twice against Wycombe Wanderers, Notts were pegged back twice following the departure of Liam Noble after allegedly using an elbow on a Wycombe player. Adam Campbell put the Magpies ahead inside eight minutes, after Aaron Pierre tripped the pacey player inside the opposition penalty box. Referee Nicholas Kinseley instantly pointed to the penalty spot, which Notts striker Jon Stead comfortably converted. As the game started to get going for the Magpies

Terry Hawkridge has revealed he "couldn't turn down" a move to hometown club Notts County. The 27-year-old was born and bred in Nottingham, and counts regional clubs Carlton Town and Hucknall Town among his former employers. Hawkridge admits he found it difficult to leave Lincoln City following their promotion-winning 2016/17 campaign, but insists he couldn't help but take the chance of joining the Magpies. "There was a bit of interest towards the end of last year and when the cha

Terry Hawkridge is hoping that he can embark on a successful FA Cup run with Notts County this season, much like he did with Lincoln City last year. The Imps went all the way to the quarter-finals of the competition in 2016-17, the first non-league team in 103 years to reach the last eight. Hawkridge was a key component of the Lincoln team that made it that far in the competition, as well as sealing promotion to the Football League. Now at Notts, who are preparing for their first-

Terry Hawkridge is optimistic about Notts County's chances of overcoming Bristol Rovers in the first round of the FA Cup tonight. The 27-year-old was part of the Lincoln City team last season that went all the way to the quarter-finals of the competition, the first non-league team in 103 years to reach the last eight. "Anything can happen in this competition - that's the magic of it," Hawkridge told the official Notts site. "Playing against Arsenal was massive. For a non-league si

Terry Hawkridge has admitted that he would not accept a League Two playoff spot now were he offered it and would rather go all out for automatic promotion. Notts County were in the top three of the division for a large chunk of the season and, even though they slipped out, they sit third going into Saturday's game at Forest Green Rovers. There are 10 games left for the Magpies to re-cement their position in the top three and Hawkridge is eager for his side to come out on top in the gam

Terry Hawkridge believes League Two will be wide open next season, but is confident Notts County will put together good runs to enjoy a fruitful campaign. The winger is a new recruit at Meadow Lane, having joined this summer from Lincoln City, with whom he won the National League title in 2016/17. He acknowledges that the promotion of Portsmouth, Plymouth Argyle, Doncaster Rovers and Blackpool has left the playing field more level for 2017/18. "It's going to be tough, but the divi

Terry Hawkridge has claimed that Notts County will need to be smart and strong to remain top of League Two, while every player, from the indispendables to the back-ups, must play their part. The Magpies' league campaign was put on hold as the team competed in the FA Cup and EFL Trophy, but on Saturday it resumes with a trip to Stevenage. “We just have to be smart,” Hawkridge told the Nottingham Post. “We know teams are going to want to beat us just because we are top of the league.

Terry Hawkridge has reassured Notts County fans by stressing that the players will not struggle to get over their last-ditch 1-1 draw to Mansfield Town last weekend. The Magpies were on the verge of recording a first league win over the Stags since 2005 in front of a bumper crowd that braved the snowy conditions at Meadow Lane. Kevin Nolan's boys took the lead in the first half through Hawkridge, but the Stags were given the chance to equalise eight minutes into the seven minutes of ad

Terry Hawkridge has echoed Kevin Nolan's sentiments in hailing Notts County's 4-1 win over Lincoln City as a display of a team at the top of their game. The Magpies took the lead in the 39th minute through Jon Stead and, even though Harry Anderson grabbed an equaliser for the Imps, further goals from Matt Tootle, Jorge Grant and Hawkridge sealed an impressive win in Saturday's League Two encounter at Meadow Lane. "We knew it was going to be a tough game because Lincoln are a good team,

FIFA, the global body that controls this beautiful game we know as football, are being investigated for bribery and corruption and it seems that the villains of the piece might be close to the very top echelons of the organisation. If the allegations are proved to be correct, then you have to think the unthinkable and wonder how far down the chain of football administration, the stench of graft will seep. Heaven forbid that we will eventua

When I found out that Basford United Football Club would be hosting an exhibition clash between some of the greatest names to have played for Nottingham Forest and Notts County in recent years, in order to raise money for Cancer Research UK, I cleared all my plans on Sunday October 12 and made a date for Greenwich Avenue. The chance to see some classic players, the chance to renew a local rivalry that is becoming staler by the day, and best of all, raise some money for a good cause? Sign

The relegation-zone will see the most action in this weekends fixtures, all four teams have the chance to dig themselves out, provided the scores work in their favour. It will most likely boil down to only two making a successful fight, although it is interesting to see none of the bottom four teams laying down and allowing themselves to be pushovers. Notts could find themselves back within the play-offs or at least just narrowly outside with a win today, it's important that count

Two years ago, Adam Chicksen appeared to be on his way out of Notts County. However, offering him an extended one-year contract has turned out to be a brilliant decision. The 31-year-old full-back has been a crucial player for the Magpies this season, scoring a career-best of 10 goals as he helps the team push towards its goal of returning to its former glory. In any intense season, consistency is essential. Chicksen has been the epitome of that, demonstrating his value by being one of the

After an astonishing end to the previous season, all the signs pointed towards Keith Curle developing Notts into strong play-off contenders, perhaps even more. But just as quickly as the leafs fell from the trees, Notts sleepwalked into an abyss. The confident squad, filled with match winners such as Zoko, Judge, Liddle and Leacock turned into draw specialists. Notts managed only one win, a surprise 1-0 victory against Swindon, in an eleven match streak which saw the month of December go by with

When the final whistle blew at Priestfield on Sunday 3rd May, I surely cannot have been the only person who felt numb, drained, disappointed and fearful. Notts had lost 3-1 to Gillingham despite leading 1-0 until the 88th minute, and following a season that began so promisingly but collapsed quicker than a sixth form leaver on his first lads’ trip abroad after his tenth shot of tequila, the Magpies’ relegation was confirmed. But not only t
