'Under no illusions'


Charlie McParland says he was “under no illusions” of the fight Notts County had to face when he took the Meadow lane hotseat.

The 46-year-old helped steer Notts five points clear of the League Two dropzone with a critical 1-0 win over Accrington Stanley but he has made no secret of the task he was up against when he took the job last October.

He said: “I knew it was going to be a fight all the way when I came in and had a look at this football club and everything about it.”

“Maybe not as bad as what it is but I was under no illusions that after two or three weeks and assessed everything I knew it was going to be a right fight.

“But we can go and stay in this division, there’s enough in there to stay here, they just have to realise that and get out there, stick their chests out and go and get the job done.”
