Martin Paterson was appointed last June after Notts County had lost in last season's League Two play-off semi-finals

Notts County boss Martin Paterson insisted that progression to the League Two play-off final is far from guaranteed after his side beat Chesterfield in the first leg of their semi-final on Sunday.

The Magpies will carry a slender 1-0 lead into the decisive return leg at Meadow Lane on Friday.

Jayden Luker's first-half strike was enough to give County their first away victory in a play-off tie - at the eighth attempt.

But Paterson is keen to keep perspective and remind everyone that the tie has not been won yet.
