Up the Maggies footnote:
After doing so well to claw their way back into the battle to avoid relegation, Notts threw away their good work by losing two successive away matches at Luton and Aston Villa leaving the Magpies 8 points adrift of safety, but they still had two games in hand including this one v Wolves (which had originally been scheduled for Saturday 28th January - FA Cup 4th round day). What proved to be the lowest Meadow Lane crowd during the three season stay in the top flight turned up to see Notts brush aside the bottom placed club who were already mathematically down. John Chiedozie headed in the opening goal from a corner, then Chiedozie turned provider after good work on the right resulted in his cross being headed home by Christie for 2-0. In the 2nd half, with Notts now attacking the kop, Martin O'Neill got in a cross from the right for yet another headed goal - this time finished by Hunt. And finally O'Neill on the left sent in a bobbling ball across the face of the goal which found Christie in the box for an easy tap in for 4-0.
