Notts County manager John Sheridan has pinned his new side's success next season on the revamp of his backroom staff. The former Oldham boss has brought in ex-Nottingham Forest goalkeeper Mark Crossley as his assistant, while Alan Smith, Mike Edwards and Kevin Pilkington will work under them as both players and coaches. Speaking of Crossley, Sheridan said: "He's a friend but he knows what he is talking about. He's been around the top level and the lower level. "We won the league a

John Sheridan has been sacked from his position as manager of Notts County, the club have confirmed. The 52-year-old took over the reins at Meadow Lane in May last year following the departure of Mark Cooper, signing a three-year deal. Notts began brightly under his tenure and, by the end of October, were sixth in League Two after 15 games played. However, things took a turn for the worse going into November as the club had to come from behind to scrape a 2-2 draw against non-leag

Alan Hardy has set a target for Notts County to finish either in the playoffs or very close to them next season. In addition, he revealed that he has given manager Kevin Nolan a 10 percent increase on last year's playing budget in a bid to hit that target. Hardy has already overseen the signing of Lincoln City winger Terry Hawkridge and is expecting seven or eight further additions in the transfer window. "Our playing budget last year was about the seventh or eighth highest in the

Kevin Nolan has given a positive update on Shaun Brisley after the defender suffered a blow to the head in Notts County's 1-0 win over Port Vale on Saturday. The centre-back was knocked to the ground after the blow late on in the game and had to be taken off. This left the Magpies to see the rest of the match out with 10 men after they had already made all three substitutions. However, Nolan is not worried about the long-term prognosis, telling the Nottingham Post: “He’s okay, he

Kevin Nolan has praised the Notts County fans for their fervent support during Saturday's 3-0 win over Newport County. Jorge Grant's brace and Shola Ameobi's powerful finish against the Exiles, combined with Luton Town's defeat to Coventry City, saw the Magpies return to the summit of League Two. Nolan was delighted with the Black and White Army's noise levels throughout the game, insisting that his players' confidence was boosted and helped spur them on in the game. “The fans wer

Kevin Nolan has declared himself proud of his Notts County charges as they took Middlesbrough all the way to penalties in Tuesday's EFL Cup first-round tie at the Riverside Stadium. In one of the games of the night, the Magpies took the lead three times, but the Championship high-flyers equalised each time to force the game to spot kicks, where the hosts held their nerve. Despite the defeat, Notts did not disgrace themselves by any means and Nolan was delighted with the output from his

In this weeks PoN's preview to the League One games played on the 14th of March, several key games have been identified – None more important than the Leyton Orient against Yeovil game, which several teams within League One will be looking out for.

Leyton Orient president Francesco Becchetti has been given a six-match stadium ban and fined £40,000 by the Football Association for aiming a kick at assistant boss Andy Hessenthaler. He was charged after television pictures captured the incident after the win over Portsmouth on 26 December. An independent regulatory commission decided on Friday the 49-year-old was guilty of a charge of violent conduct. Becchetti,

Former Notts County midfielder Liam Noble has wished the Magpies all the best and urged them to get promotion next season. The ex-Carlisle United man was released at the end of the 2015-16 campaign but says he will continue to keep an eye on his former team whenever he gets the chance. Noble is quoted by the Nottingham Post as saying: "I had two years with the club and have a lot of love for the place and the people there," he said. "Two of my best mates, Adam Campbell and Elliott

Notts County player-coach Alan Smith has been placed in temporary charge of the first team while the club look for a new permanent manager. The former Leeds United and Manchester United man replaces John Sheridan, who was sacked on Monday night after the Magpies were beaten 4-0 by Cambridge United, their ninth successive loss. Smith, a Notts player since the summer of 2014, will be assisted by Mark Crossley, who will continue in his current role as assistant manager. The 36-year-o

Jorge Grant feels he has come a long way as a footballer since first arriving on loan at Notts County. The 23-year-old, who is on the books of Nottingham Forest, linked up with the Magpies at the start of the year and played a big part in helping the club survive relegation from League Two. A new loan deal was subsequently agreed for Grant at the start of the current campaign and the youngster continues to impress, claiming seven goals and two assists so far in the league. “I thin

Kevin Nolan has expressed his delight with Jon Stead, describing him as an "unsung hero" for his man-of-the-match performance against Brentford in the third round of the FA Cup on Saturday. The veteran striker, part of the Bradford City team which shocked Chelsea in the fourth round three years ago, repeated his feat with the winner against the Championship Bees at Griffin Park. Stead had received some fan flak at times for a number of reasons including a relatively low goal tally, but

Notts County manager Kevin Nolan has claimed that the weekend 1-1 draw with Mansfield Town felt like a defeat to his players. Terry Hawkridge gave the Magpies the lead in Saturday's League Two derby, played in front of a bumper crowd at Meadow Lane and in wintry conditions. However, referee Andy Woolmer played beyond the seven minutes of stoppage time and, when Alessandra handballed with his arm in the area, he awarded Mansfield a penalty. Kane Hemmings then slotted home from 12 y

Kevin Nolan has suggested that Kristian Dennis could make his first Notts County start in Friday's League Two meeting with Yeovil Town. The striker was left out of the squad for Tuesday’s EFL Cup trip to Middlesbrough to work on his fitness. Speaking a day before the Glovers clash, Nolan is confident that Dennis' extra grafting could see him involved from the off. “We kept him back because we felt he had a real chance of starting on Friday,” Nolan told the official Notts site.

Notts County secured a 3-1 victory against Doncaster Rovers at the Eco-Power Stadium. In a post-match interview, manager Luke Williams shared his thoughts on the team's performance and individual player performances. According to Williams, it was a good performance from Notts County. "We took our chances in the first half," he said. "Doncaster made it difficult for us to build up to the final third. However, we changed our tactics a bit and it helped us."

Another disappointing result and display from Notts County, but at least the bottom 5 teams all lost too, with the exception of bottom club Yeovil who beat Oldham 2-1. Preston had a good win away at MK Dons, Sheffield United were beaten at home 1-2 by Fleetwood but Bristol City are clear leaders of League One by 10 points after winning away at Crawley 2-1. Several high scoring games took place also within League One, with a total of 30 goals being across the divis

But with new manager Jamie Fullarton in charge, McLeod believes a nine-point gap to the play-off places in League Two is

According to both the Stoke Sentinel and BBC Radio Nottingham, Dickinson is weighing up a move to Notts as he admitted that, despite enjoying his time at Vale Park, the idea of a
