Notts County were the original footballing Magpies, as the oldest professional football club in the world.
They were originally known as the Lambs but a change to their famous and often copied black and white stripes in 1890 saw a change in nickname, Newcastle united adopted the black and white around 5years later after seeing Notts county win the FA Cup in 1894.
