Matt Tootle "disappointed" in his last three games for Notts County

Notts County defender Matt Tootle has admitted that his recent performances for the club have not been up to scratch.

The Magpies suffered two consecutive defeats, against Mansfield Town and Morecambe, to slip down the League Two table.

Meanwhile, the 1-1 draw against Crewe Alexandra came about because of lacklustre after scoring their first goal, conceding within 60 seconds.

"I feel as if I need to get a bit of a run going myself," Tootle told reporters.

"I started the season really well, but I've been disappointed in myself the last three games.

"But I am not going to put that ahead of anything else.

"I know if I keep on working hard and get a run in one position, it will come."

Notts take on Portsmouth away in their next league fixture, which is this Saturday.
