Notts County boss Kevin Nolan has claimed that Jon Stead does not get the credit he deserves.
The veteran striker impressed in the 4-1 win over Lincoln City at the weekend, scoring one and assisting Matt Tootle.
Stead went on to make his 100th Magpies appearance in the 3-0 victory at Exeter City on Tuesday, and Nolan paid tribute to the forward, who turned down a move to the United States to extend his Meadow Lane contract in the summer.
Asked whether Stead is given enough credit, Nolan told the Nottingham Post: “No, not at all.
“He knows I have got confidence in him. He knows how much I regard him not just as a player, but as a person.
“On and off the field he is what we are all about. He’s an absolute pleasure to work with day in, day out.
“I now think he is getting his just rewards. What he did on Saturday was absolutely brilliant. To score and then set one up was great.”
