It is with much regret that we record the death of former winger Alan Withers, aged 87.
Alan was one of the last surviving members of the Notts squad which achieved promotion from the fourth tier of the Football League in 1959-60, a success in which he played a significant role.
"he had first come to prominence while playing in the same Blackpool side as Stanley Matthews on the opposite flank."
