New Notts County signing Matt Tootle has claimed that the Magpies will have a successful season in 2016-17, and that factor was crucial in his choice of club. The 25-year-old defender, who played for Crewe Alexandra and Shrewsbury Town, pens a two-year deal at Meadow Lane. He told the official website: "I'm delighted to get (the deal) over the line. It is a massive club - as soon as I heard Notts County were interested. "I wanted to come to a club I felt would be successful next y

Notts County boss Kevin Nolan has revealed that the transfer embargo at the club is "starting" to be lifted, and hopes that he will be able to sign some players before the end of the month. Despite Alan Hardy's takeover of the club, the embargo remains due to "higher than expected levels of debt during the takeover process", but Nolan is hopeful that this will be rectified. Nolan is also considering registering himself as a player, but not for the time being. "At this minute I'm f

Notts County have confirmed that player of the season Rob Milsom has signed a new contract at Meadow Lane. The 30-year-old midfielder has made 59 appearances for the Magpies since joining from Rotherham United in 2015. "The way the second half of the season went with the new chairman (Alan Hardy) and manager (Kevin Nolan) was really good. It's exciting times," Milsom is quoted by the Nottingham Post as saying. "My aim at the start of last season was to stay fit and play as many ga

Notts County goalkeeper Adam Collin has hailed the performances of Shaun Brisley and Richard Duffy in front of him in defence. The Magpies have a chance to make it six games unbeaten when they host Morecambe in League Two tomorrow. Collin has kept two clean sheets in the five league games played by Notts so far, but he paid credit to his centre-backs as Brisley fights to be in contention following his injury in the Port Vale win last week. The stopper told the official Notts websi

Carl Dickinson has described Notts County's 4-2 win over Bristol Rovers as proof of how far the Magpies have come in a short space of time. Friday night's FA Cup first-round encounter at Meadow Lane began in the worst possible way for Notts, who found themselves two goals down by the quarter-hour mark. However, Ryan Yates struck a quickfire brace - assisted by Dickinson for both goals - to edge the hosts level, before Jon Stead and Jorge Grant completed the turnaround by full time.

Notts County have announced the permanent signing of Crystal Palace midfielder Noor Husin on a one-and-a-half-year deal. The 20-year-old came through the Reading academy, going on to make his senior football bow during a loan spell at Hemel Hempstead Town. Husin, who was born in Afghanistan, then moved to Selhurst Park from the Madejski in August 2016. Last season he spent time on loan in League Two, scoring once in 11 appearances for Accrington Stanley - incidentally against Nott

Former Notts County captain John Thompson has claimed that Notts County looked "a bit devoid of ideas" as they fell to a 3-1 defeat at Chesterfield on Sunday. The Magpies' televised League Two clash at the Proact Stadium was the archetypal "bad day" as they conceded two goals before the break due to dreadful defending. Although Dan Jones halved the deficit late on, the following nine minutes of stoppage time only yielded another goal for the Spireites as Matt Tootle gave away a penalty

Gleeds board director Jon Evener has resigned from the Notts County board in the wake of Kevin Nolan's departure from the Magpies first-team manager role. The former Premier League midfielder was let go on Sunday after Notts fell to their fourth League Two defeat in a row at Lincoln City. On Sunday evening, Nottinghamshire resident Enever quit the board. "After some serious soul searching I've decided to step down as a board director of Notts County Football Club," he wrote on Twi

Notts County Manager on Luton Town’s Success and the Importance of Experience In an interview, Notts County manager praised Luton Town’s success, stating that it ranks with Leicester City winning the Premier League. “I think what Luton have done ranks with Leicester winning the Premier League,” he said.  He described Luton Town as an incredibly well-managed and well-run football club, with similarities to Notts County in terms of being run sensibly and with constant planning for the fu

In our next three games, Notts will be playing Colchester United at home. They will then be travelling to play Brentford away from home, upon the return the following game is again at Meadow Lane, this time it will be against Port Vale. This will leave us with the final run down of fixtures, only four remaining for the fight of survival. These three fixtures will be what makes the grades for Notts, without good results here then the previous two wins will be for almost nothing. The intere

Notts County have been linked with a move for former Juventus defender Martin Caceres, if a report on the internet is to be believed. According to Breaking Football Update - and you can read the piece here, to prove we're not making it up - the Magpies are said to be interested in the 29-year-old Uruguayan, who has won La Liga and the Champions League with Barcelona, as well as five Serie A championships with Juve. Caceres, currently a free agent, has been linked with the likes of Chel

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 have revealed that Oldham Athletic boss John Sheridan has put pen to paper on a three-year contract to manage Notts County. The 51-year-old helped the Latics to 17th place in League One last season having taken over in January with the team in 22nd position and five points from safety. Prior to that, Sheridan managed Newport County, who were bottom of League Two having gained five points from the first ten matches, and they too were transformed within a short space of time

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

The 2009-10 season saw the Devon team retain Judge's services, and the rising star played 37 games, scoring five. Towards the end of the season, then Blackburn manager Sam Allardyce told the youngster he was surplus to requirements at the club, meaning he had to move again. On the 31st of August 2010, Alan Judge's spell at Notts County began, first joining on loan, then signing outright. For three years, the talented Irishman delighted Magpies fans with his impressive skills and his knack for

He made his senior debut in 2005, which saw him go on to make 115 appearances and scoring 17 goals, noticeably gaining popularity after scoring a last minute winning goal against arch-rivals Norwich City in the following year. Haynes was later loaned out to Millwall where he only made 5 appearances, scoring 2 goals. He's spent time with Bristol City and Barnsley making a c

For myself I had been disappointed that something I knew I could have helped with would be passing me by, I had quite seriously dislocated my knee and although I am now on the mend. I was advised that this would be too much and likely cause me further complications, I had taken to Facebook to filter my disappointment. I wasn't aware that help was required, so I was really chuffed when I was asked to consider being a Marshall. On the 14/07/2013 I arrived to see scenes which looked quite spectacu

He made a total of 109 appearances with a further 13 being made as a substitute, he scored 10 goals for them.
