Founded in 1862, Notts County are the oldest professional football club in the world. No other club carries a history like theirs - from FA Cup glory in Victorian England to National League play-off drama at Wembley in 2023, from the arrival of a world-record signing who drew 46,000 to Meadow Lane on a Tuesday night to the goalkeeper substituted specifically for a penalty shootout. This is their story, told in full, for the first time.
The 100 Greatest Moments in Notts County History takes you through more than 160 years of the Magpies, moment by moment, from the earliest days of professional football to the present. Each of the 100 moments has been rigorously researched and verified from multiple sources - every date, every scoreline, every goalscorer confirmed - giving supporters and football history enthusiasts a book they can trust as well as treasure.
Inside you will find:
- The 1894 FA Cup final at Goodison Park, when Jimmy Logan's hat-trick made Notts County the first Second Division club in history to win the FA Cup - and the story of Logan's unmarked grave, discovered by supporters 122 years later
- The Tommy Lawton era: the world-record 20,000 transfer from Chelsea, the record Meadow Lane crowds, and the Third Division South title clinched against Nottingham Forest in front of 46,000
- Jimmy Sirrel's extraordinary decade-long transformation of the club, from Fourth Division champions in 1971 to First Division football for the first time since 1926
- Neil Warnock's back-to-back Wembley play-off finals in 1990 and 1991 - the only manager in history to win consecutive play-off finals, and the first time the format was ever held at Wembley
- The Munto Finance scandal that brought one of English football's most extraordinary frauds to Meadow Lane, and the League Two title won in the same chaotic season despite it all
- Macaulay Langstaff's 42-goal season in 2022-23 - a National League record, a 92-year-old club record surpassed, and a 107-point campaign that still ended in a penalty shootout at Wembley
- The return to the Football League in 2023, and the building of something to believe in under the Reedtz brothers' ownership
The book spans ten chapters, each covering a distinct era, from the Victorian Magpies to the present day. It includes the full top ten greatest moments, ranked and argued for with passion and precision, plus a complete quick-reference appendix listing all 100 moments with dates and one-line descriptions.
Whether you are a lifelong Notts County supporter who watched the Warnock years from the terraces, a younger fan wanting to understand the full depth of the club's heritage, or a football history enthusiast drawn by the unique story of the game's oldest professional club, this book was written for you.
It is a celebration, an argument, a record, and a love letter to a club that has been relegated seventeen times, survived near-extinction more than once, spent four years outside the Football League, and is still here - still playing in black and white, still singing the Wheelbarrow Song, still producing moments that no one could have predicted and no supporter will ever forget.
The perfect gift for any Notts County fan. The essential companion for anyone who loves the history of English football.
