Synopsis

Ever since BBC Radio Nottingham was launched in 1968 Colin Slater has been the Voice of Notts County. On radio alone he has covered over 2,000 matches and, before then, was a newspaper journalist, writing about the Magpies in the Nottingham daily and football papers. It is that experience which has given him a first-hand and unique insight in to the affairs of the world's oldest Football League club for over 50 years. He was recognised in 2001 ""for service to radio and the community in Nottinghamshire"" with the award of the MBE in the Queen's Birthday Honours; in 2009 with a Lifetime Achievement Award by the Sony Radio Academy; in 2010 by being granted the Freedom of the Borough of Broxtowe; and in 2011 with a Certificate of Achievement by the Nottinghamshire Football Association. This very personal and revealing record of Notts County from 1959 to 2011, as entertaining, informative and incisive as his radio commentaries, coincides with the club's 150th anniversary year which is celebrated in 2012.
