Bristol City forgotten man reunited with former Robins coach on trial at National League club

Bristol City midfielder James Morton is on trial with National League Notts County under the watch of former Robins Under-23 manager Luke Williams.

Morton was pictured in a training video posted by the Magpies over the weekend with the 23-year-old having not been part of Nigel Pearson’s plans for the last year. Notts County have their first pre-season fixture on Tuesday against Southern League Basford United.

Williams was appointed at Meadow Lane earlier this month, having left Ashton Gate in 2019 before working alongside Russell Martin at MK Dons and Swansea City. Morton played under the 41-year-old extensively during his time in the West Country.
