'Hurt' - Callum Roberts in play-off admission as Grimsby boss makes Notts County comment

Callum Roberts is determined to make up for his play-off heartache last season by driving Notts County to an emotional return to the Football League.

Roberts missed the entirety of the Magpies' promotion push last term which ended at the semi-final stage with a defeat at Torquay. The former Newcastle winger was back at home in the northeast as he recovered from injury, but has been in sensational form this term.

He hit his 16th goal of the campaign in the 1-0 win over Maidenhead at the weekend which booked a home quarter-final clash with Grimsby on Monday night. And the player dubbed the "Geordie Messi" by the fans is eager to make up for the frustration of being sat on the sidelines.
