Notts County manager Jamie Fullarton has empathised with fans who booed him and his team in Saturday’s 1-0 defeat against Leyton Orient at Meadow Lane.

Against Plymouth Argyle on Tuesday, Notts put up a good performance but still finished the game on the receiving end of a 2-1 defeat, with Sheridan e

Notts County boss Kevin Nolan has hailed Jonathan Forte after the striker grabbed his third goal in two games against Colchester United on Saturday.

Harry Kewell has claimed that Notts County seem to finally be moving in the right direction although "time, blood, sweat and tears" will continue to be needed in pursuit of the upper reaches of the League Two table. The Magpies have now won their last two league games and are unbeaten in four, a stark turnaround from earlier in the season when they looked unfit for purpose in the fourth tier. “It’s looking good especially in the opposition half,” Kewell told the Nottingham Post after t

Morias is well aware of the fierce competition for a starting position, and he apprecia

Blair Adams made his first Notts County appearance this season, returning from injury in Friday nights 2-0 defeat by Mansfield and says Notts players must put their bodies on the line when defending in dead ball situations.

You've got to want to head the ball away for the team, put your face in where it hurts

Kevin Nolan has praised Notts County following their impressive 1-0 win at Plymouth Argyle on Tuesday night, describing their showing as "a perfect performance". Loanee Jorge Grant grabbed his third goal in four games in the first half at Home Park as the Magpies more than matched their opponents, who are looking to secure promotion from League Two. The result puts Notts eight points clear of the bottom two and a step closer to safety, when a month ago it looked like they were standing

Notts County are good enough to launch a League Two playoff challenge next season, according to Shola Ameobi. The Magpies finished last season strongly, losing just once at home since Kevin Nolan took charge of the first team in January. Ameobi played a key role himself in driving the club out of relegation danger by scoring four goals following his arrival at the start of the year, and is now hoping for a top-seven finish. "I am always looking to do the best we can," he told the

Kevin Nolan has stressed that Yeovil Town must not be taken lightly when Notts County face them this evening despite their lowly position in the table. The Glovers currently sit in 17th place, having lost their last two games, and five of their last 10 fixtures.
