The Stags will then visit the ‘Lane for the return fixture come March 4th – another Saturday.


The final fixture of the season – another home match – will see Bury visit the ‘Lane.

Notts' first home match of the season will be the mid-week visit of Wrexham, whilst there first Saturday home game will be against neighbours Lincoln City.
