I just wanted to mention that I thought Kyle was immense on Saturday.
He lead the line really well, seemed to have an extra spring in his legs, and won some really important headers in our box, especially when Hudlin came on.

To be fair he's been doing this for a while now but it has mostly gone unnoticed because everyone put more effort into moaning that we didn't buy Tshimanga. Kyle's an absolute colossus and epitomises the new Notts mantra of defend from the front, attack from the back. Long may it continue.
Absolutely.
Touching on Tshimanga and Chesterfield a lot of their goals have been scruffy percentage goals. If you take Saturday, at least 2 of their goals were scrappy efforts.
Clearly I’m biased. But, if you look at Notts goals this season, quite a few have been well worked/created.
I would say that’s an issue we need to work on actually - a very high percentage of our goals are really well worked team moves or fantastic efforts. We’ve been miles better from attacking set pieces this season, but I think we could do with a few more scruffy ones still. Getting on the end of a second ball in the box can be the difference in a tight game, as we saw at Grimsby.
