Kevin Nolan has given a scathing assessment of his Notts County team after they fell to a 2-1 defeat against Luton Town in Saturday's League Two match at Kenilworth Road.

The Magpies began well as Elliott Hewitt opened the scoring, but goals from Ollie Palmer and Pelly-Ruddock Mpanzu put the Hatters in the lead by the end of the first half and they hung onto it until the final whistle.

β€œIn the last two games I feel we have not been the same team we were in the five games previously,” the manager told the official Notts site. β€œIt has been disappointing.

β€œWe could have come away with a point despite not playing well which pleases me a little more than if we had lay down and let Luton run all over us.

β€œWe had a go in the second half but we were very poor in the first half. That is what happens when the lads feel the relief of getting to safety after what they have been through this season.

"You have a big sigh of relief and everything drops so it is up to us as a staff to pick them up again.”
