'We are back' - Historic Notts County promotion lights up social media as huge new prediction made

Notts County are back in the Football League after sealing promotion in dramatic fashion at Wembley Stadium.

On-loan goalkeeper Archie Mair turned penalty hero in the shootout, saving two spot kicks as Luke Williams' men booked their place back in the EFL after a four-year absence.

The Magpies finished the season on 107 points but still had to go through the play-offs to achieve promotion. Supporters have flooded social media with their celebrations on a joyous day in the capital. Below is a look at some of the best reactions.
