I don't get this he played 60 mins for notts. yet is the best thing since sliced bread.
Jon Stead has had a pretty good career and he's played more games and scored more goals for us than anyone else in his career. you could probably count on one hand the amount of times he's looked like he's not putting in 100% during that time, notably when his heart was set on a move to the US imo but even after we denied him that chance and said we needed him to stick around he went straight back to giving his all imo when others (*cough*Forte*cough*) would have sulked or tried to force a move.
The guy has been a model pro whilst here and I think some fans give him way more stick than he deserves. He might not grab 20+ goals a season but his overall goal contribution (including assists and cup goals) has been better than people give him credit for.
However, as others have said, hopefully the strikers we've just spent a **** load of money on will be keeping him out of the team because it will obviously mean they are both playing well and we spent our money wisely.
