\"Marlon Harewood scored 55 goals for the Magpies’ local-rivals Nottingham Forest<\/span> <\/p>\n

Notts County have offered Marlon Harewood a two-year contract and signed defender Julian Kelly and utility man Jude Stirling on free transfers.<\/p>\n

The former Nottingham Forest, West Ham and Aston Villa striker, 31, was released by relegated Blackpool.<\/p>\n

Magpies boss Martin Allen said: “I know he has a lot of options and several at Championship level, but if you don’t ask you don’t get.”<\/p>\n

Kelly, 21, arrives from Reading, while Stirling, 28, had been at MK Dons.<\/p>\n

Stirling played under Allen at both MK Dons and Barnet and the Notts boss was attracted by his versatility.<\/p>\n

“Jude can play in an number of positions including left-back, right-back, centre-back, central midfield or holding midfield,” said Allen.<\/p>\n

I can confirm after the non-stop rumours that I met Marlon Harewood with the chairman at Meadow Lane for a couple of hours<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Martin Allen<\/span> Notts County manager<\/span><\/div>\n

“He has been brought here as a squad player. He’s great in the dressing room with all of the players.<\/p>\n

“He’s very dangerous in the final third and he’s very helpful in our own defensive third. He’s a good player and a good man to have in our squad.”<\/p>\n

Kelly, who spent part of last season on loan at Lincoln, is an attack-minded right-back but can also play at left-back and on either wing.<\/p>\n

But it is the move for Harewood that will excite Notts fans the most.<\/p>\n

“I can confirm after the non-stop rumours that I met Marlon Harewood with the chairman at Meadow Lane for a couple of hours yesterday Wednesday,” explained Allen.<\/p>\n

“I don’t normally pass comment on all this speculation but I felt it was only right on this occasion.”<\/p>\n

Harewood began his career with local rivals Nottingham Forest and became a fans’ favourite, scoring 55 goals, before a \u00a3500,000 move to West Ham.<\/p>\n

After four years at Upton Park, he moved back to the Midlands to Aston Villa in a \u00a34m deal but struggled to make an impact scoring five league goals in one start and 28 substitute appearances.<\/p>\n

Harewood had loan spells with Wolves and Newcastle in 2009, before moving to Blackpool in August 2010.<\/p>\n

The striker played 10 games on-loan for Barnsley earlier this year, scoring four times.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
