NOTTS COUNTY players were left jobless yesterday after the club folded, just 48 hours before they were due to start the Spring Series against Arsenal.

Previously known as Lincoln Ladies before they were controversially relocated from Lincoln to Nottingham and rebranded, the squad included four England internationals named in Mark Sampson’s Euro 2017 squad: Carly Telford, Laura Bassett, Jade Moore and Jo Potter.

Notts County finished sixth in the Women’s Super League last year, after narrowly losing the 2015 FA Cup final to Chelsea.
