  • I visited Nottingham on the 29.7.22 with the idea of capturing both Nottingham Football clubs by drone and then visiting a few stadiums on the way back home.
    Here is my video of Meadow Lane Stadium, home of Notts County and I have shared some facts about the stadium and club too.
    Its a magnificent stadium with a fantastic history set in a great location.
    I hope you enjoy the video.

    When Juventus opened their new stadium a few years back their first opponents were Notts County due to the connections you have already mentioned

    It is in fact somewhat true mate: Juventus asked one of their team members, Englishman John Savage, if he had any contacts in England who could supply new shirts in a colour that would better withstand the elements. He had a friend who lived in Nottingham, who being a Notts County supporter, shipped out the black and white striped shirts to Turin.

    Autumn 1981. Freezing my rocks off on what was an open terrace with about 20 other Evertonians. Graham Sharps first goal for Everton. Alan Ainscough got nobbled by their big donkey centre back. Killcline? Great memories.

    It is true why Juve play in back and white. And also while you were at forest. That is why arsenal play in red. Forest gave them their first kit.

    • @alantomlinson5740
      @alantomlinson5740 2 роки тому

      Both kit stories are true. In fact, whenever Arsenal play Forest at home (Emerites), they always give Forest the choice of playing in their red strip rather than their away strip as a mark of respect and acknowledgement of the historical connection.
      When Juventus opened their new stadium a few years ago, the first match played there was against Notts. It ended 1-1.
      A couple of years ago Notts were in deep financial trouble. They were facing possible administration or even extinction. As a result they could not afford to pay for their new kits for the coming season. Juventus offered to return the favour and approached Addidas with a view to providing a kit for Notts. In the end, the contractual arrangements Notts had with Puma meant they couldn't proceed. However, Notts were bought by the current owners and things are much better now.

      It’s part true, juventus used to play in pink (which is why they have pink away strips sometimes) but the colour used to fade out of the kits so they asked a contact named John savage who I think was from Nottingham and chose the Notts county colours for juventus to play in, atletico Madrid have a similar story with Southampton and their kits

    Since they are not in the same league, I assume if you live in Nottingham that you can be a fan of both clubs? It would make for quite a day of football if both clubs ever play at home on the same day. Schedule one match for the afternoon and then walk a few yards for a late afternoon/early evening match. Don't know if they ever do that, but it would be fun.

      Police won't allow two matches in one day & no, you have to choose between one club or the other. Preferably Notts.

      It really depends. There isn't much rivalry off the pitch between Notts County fans. Our rivalry isn't fueled by anything like politics or religion, just the location. Given that, you'll find that alot of Forest fans or Notts fans significant others, families, friends etc support the opposite clubs. If you ask a Forest fan their opinion on Notts, you'd probably get an answer of 'Yeah they're alright' or something on the lines of. Often, you'll see a couple of black and white shirts at the City Ground on match days, and this goes the other way where you'll also see red shirts at Meadow Lane which even helped us with the National League attendance. Record against Solihull Moors in the 2021/22 season. That being said, the fans usually stick to one club but we all have a soft spot for eachother.

    Can i suggest you actually do some research before you do a video. trampling like a blind man over a clubs history is unbelievable.
    Notts County are the worlds oldest professional league club (not one of)
    Juventus play in Black and White because Juventus used to play in pink (in those days the dyes washed out) and they were due to play a game and realised they couldn't play in off-white, someone from Nottingham happened to be around and suggested Notts might be able to send kit across at short notice. The legend was born
    Notts County's most famous player was Tommy Lawton who played for England captain at the time. He moved from Chelsea to play 3rd division football
