Report
None available.

Up the Maggies footnote:
This was the first Notts match I ever went to. I stood at the front of the County Road stand towards the Kop peering through the hooligan proof perimeter fence. I remember the Liverpool fans starting up a chant of "We hate Nottingham Forest, we hate Forest too...." and an elderly County fan behind me said (in a very matter-of-fact broad Scottish accent) "Everybody hates Nottingham Forest!". So although I had come to see Liverpool that day, I realised I was in very good company in the home stand amongst people who disliked Forest as much as I did. I was back at Meadow Lane for all but two of County's remaining home league matches that season.
