Michael O'Connor is the latest player to hail Kevin Nolan for his positive impact on the Notts County players' confidence and in turn the team's form.
"When we were on that 10 game losing streak, a few of the lads went into their shells," he told the Nottingham Post. "But since the gaffer has come in, he's put arms around all of us.
"The confidence is back and you only have to look at Richard Duffy to see that. He's been our best player since the gaffer came in and big H (Haydn Hollis) looks a different player too.
"It's good to be around here at the moment. The lads are enjoying their football at Meadow Lane again. Before, we were coming here feeling the anxiety.
"Some lads were scared of playing that 40-50 yard ball but now you see players getting forward like Toots (Matt Tootle) who scored on Sunday. He wouldn't have done that a few months ago.
"It's seven unbeaten now and if we can get a few away wins from now until the end of the season then we will easily finish mid-table. When the gaffer came the aim was just to stay in the league but I think now we are 11 points clear and we are on a good run.
"We've taken six points from three games, and I thought we should have had something from the Doncaster game. We will just take it game by game until we are mathematically safe."
