I had the perfect view of the goal, and the cross - it was excellently placed. Jim mentioned to me after the game that it was nice to get on the scoresheet and that he needed the goal. I said, it came at the right time, and that his celebration really lifted the spirit of the KOP.

Everything about it was perfect, the timing and execution.

I am delighted for Jim because he's someone you have to admire and look up to. Such a good player for Notts, It's a shame some fans have to spoil this by constantly saying he's too old. Leave it to him and Luke Williams to decide. Otherwise, just enjoy the memories because we won't always get such a loyal and friendly player who is Notts through and through. Similar to David McGoldrick.

It was a great diving header and as you say @Chris it came at just the right time, the celebration was brilliant, Jim is a proper warrior and appears to love the club I hope we can find a role for him when he hangs up his boots but hopefully that won’t be for a while.

The free kick was perfectly placed and timed, executed efficiently. The Crawley Town keeper couldn’t have done much. For Jim O’Brien to control the header and place it just right, it was a good goal.

Jim’s header was fantastic, and his celebration even better. He might look a bit mad while celebrating, but it’s all out of pure passion!

Jim O’Brien has a knack for being in the right place at the right time. I wonder if he will bag a hat-trick before Christmas? Usually, one goal leads to a flurry of them from him.

I love Jim’s celebration. It was a fantastic moment. Nobody shows his level of passion.

He deserved the applause when he left the field. The chant for him as he departed made his goal even more memorable.

Jim’s passion is admirable, and his goals are typically worth the anticipation. His timely header was a highlight of the game, and I hope we’ll have more opportunities to celebrate his goals in a Notts shirt.

The goal was superbly timed and executed. He managed to skillfully direct the ball into the net, out of the goalkeeper’s reach.

Jim O’Brien has had a few near misses this season, so when he finally scored, I was thrilled. He’s a player you can easily relate to.
