Blair Adams: Mansfield Town surprised by Notts loan block

Blair Adams made two appearances for Notts this season before joining Mansfield

Mansfield Town manager Adam Murray says Notts County changed their minds about allowing left-back Blair Adams to extend his loan spell at the Stags.

Adams has played 15 games during a three-month loan spell and Murray said he was "led to believe" the 24-year-old defender was staying at Field Mill.

Murray said: "It came because of a mix-up in communication at their end."

New Notts boss Jamie Fullarton is keen to take a look at all his players after taking over at the League Two side.

Murray added: "We are obviously very disappointed as Blair was an outstanding performer, but we will move on swiftly."
