Butcher is Notts joint leading scorer with eight goals

Notts County midfielder Richard Butcher is looking to beat his former club Lincoln City for the first time since leaving Sincil Bank in 2005.

Mid-table Notts have little to play for this season but the 28-year-old still wants to finish the season on a high.

Butcher told BBC Radio Nottingham: "Since I left, I've never beaten them. I want to put that right.

"Lincoln's obviously a local derby as well. We're looking to finish the season in the best possible position."

The experienced midfielder says he has happy memories of his time with Lincoln, but is surprised at how they have performed this season.

He said: "They'll be a bit disappointed, I think they'll feel like they've under achieved a bit, like we have.

"They're a decent team and we'll have to do well on Saturday to come away with anything."
