Notts County's owners have confirmed they will not be selling the club to pop star Taylor Swift.
Posting on their social media channels, the League Two club responded to a newspaper report that said Swift wanted to buy the Magpies.
The owners of the world's oldest professional league club issued the tongue-in-cheek statement on Friday.
Chris and Alex Reedtz added they were sorry to "disappoint the Swifties in our fanbase".
She must be a Forest fan ;)))

Sunderland have apologised for a "serious error in judgement" after a bar at the Stadium of Light was redecorated with Newcastle slogans.

The Black Cats Bar, to be used by away fans, was furnished with the signage for Saturday's FA Cup third-round tie.

Pictures, including a sign emblazoned with "keep the black and white flying high", had circulated prior to the Tyne-Wear derby taking place.

In a statement,
Sunderland said the bar would "return to its original state".

Nor me, Woody. And I suspect tens of thousands of others. I think he would have stayed longer, but he became tired of some of the ridiculous refereeing/VAR decisions and some of the media. I think he will have more to say about this once he has settled in his Majorcan villa.

Manchester City’s legal case against the Premier League’s associated party transaction (APT) rules will begin on Monday, June 10.

#MCFC are suing the league in an attempt to have the rules — which they claim are unlawful — abolished in a two-week private arbitration hearing.

The Premier League’s APT rules were originally introduced in December 2021 in the wake of the Saudi-backed takeover of Newcastle United.

The regulations are in place to guard against clubs using sponsorship deals with companies linked to their owners to inflate revenue streams and allow more room for spending.
