Magpies strong for Cherries clash

The fourth-placed Magpies are unbeaten in their last seven games in all competitions, with striker Lee Hughes in top form with 22 goals already this season. Goalkeeper Kevin Pilkington and striker Delroy Facey are County's only absentees as they remain on loan at Luton and Lincoln respectively. Kevan is hopeful his side can continue their good form against the Cherries. He told the club's official website: "We've got a lot of football to look forward to and we go to Bournemouth full of confidence. "We'll try to patch the lads up and get them back out there on Tuesday, and we're looking for more of the same."
