    We're one of 38 of the current 92 league clubs to have won it.

    Notts have lifted it the same amount of times as Leicester, Derby, Leeds, Southampton, Burnley and Coventry, amongst others.

    Of the 38 current teams to have lifted the trophy, Notts are the only one to be suspended by the FA two weeks after winning the FA Cup.

    An illegal approach for a player at Blackburn Rovers. the suspension lasted until the following September and we started the 1894/95 season later than everybody else because we were not allowed to play.
