Evo-Stik Premier League Marine announces that striker Jamie Rainford who has scored an emphatic 21 goals in 23 league games so far this season for the Mariners, is to begin a week long trial this coming week at League One Club Notts County. Marine have given permission for Rainford, a contract player, to go on trial at Notts County following a request from County manager Paul Ince in December.

Marine Chairman Paul Leary said:

“Jamie has worked very hard this season and thoroughly deserves to be given this trial with League One Notts County. His goal-scoring record so far is probably the best in the country and he deserves every chance of playing in the Football League. I want to give Jamie, every opportunity for him to realise his dream of a career in the Football League and our agreement for him to go on this trial with such a reputable Club as Notts County demonstrates that.”

Marine Manager Kevin Lynch added:

“I am sure that Jamie will do well on this trial at Notts County. He deserves and has clearly earned this chance because of his work rate, attitude and goals and I am sure everyone at Marine will wish him well. Marine and Notts County have been planning this trial for a few weeks and the timing now suits both clubs.”
