Notts County Celebrity Fans and Famous Fans
If there's a set of supporters in the country that deserve respect then Notts County fans are right up there. Yes, they follow the oldest league club around and have a fine history, but since the 1970s rivals Forest have dominated the two-club city more than probably any other in the country. So, without wishing to sound disrespectful, youngsters growing up in the area have got to have a bit of character and something about them to pick Notts County over the easy option of Forest. But plenty do, and here's some of the famous ones...
