Forest Win for Magpie Mace

Macesport MD Paul Mace was the surprise winner of a ..... Nottingham Forest tie.

Paul, an avid Notts County follower and proud lead sponsor of the Notts County Ex-Players Association, landed the prize in his son's junior football club raffle.

"I had thought of donating it back to the club for auction but, on the basis it would not have raised more than 20p ,I've decided to accept it.

"I shall now be sending it as a Christmas present to Matt Appleby of Barclays who has had the misfortune to be a lifelong Forest fan," said Paul.

Macesport Sponsor Former Magpies

Macesport are the proud new title sponsors of the Notts County ex-players Association.

Those of you who know our Managing Director Paul Mace will have heard (on numerous occasions !) of his - and his family's - allegiances to the world's oldest professional football club.

Macesport have signed a three-year agreement to be the lead partner of the Association.

"Notts County is in the blood of the Mace family dating back to the foundation of the Football League in 1888," said Mace.

"Hopefully, our support can help underpin and help develop what is unquestionably one of the best-run ex players associations of any football club in the UK.

"The club has given my family and I over 120 years of pleasure - and pain ! - and this is my way of saying thank you to those players.

"I also think it very important that, given we are a sports communications consultancy, we should be seen to be supporting the game across all levels."
