PENALTY TO NOTTS.

GOOOOOAAAAAL BROWN

Mark Stallard: 'It was left footed and he went to the keeper's left and the keeper went the wrong one and Jevani Brown opens his Notts account. That's important for attacking players.'

GOOOOOAAAAAL BROWN.

It’s a great result for Notts these matches have β€œbanana skin” written all over them as Huddersfield found so well done Notts on a professional performance.

I was really pleased to see Brown get on the score sheet, he’s had some stick from fans but he seems to be getting there now and showing he can be a valuable part of the squad.

Fair play to Alfreton, they gave as good as they got in the first half. Notts's quality was too much for them in the 2nd half. Another home draw in the 2nd round would be most welcome.Β 

Just watched the highlights this morning and it looked like a bit of stroll in the end. Having watched a bit of the Tamworth game last night it’s easy to see how good teams can get knocked out in a one-off game. So that was very good night's work for us!

Brown has really settled into the team now, he’s taken his chance and has looked very good in his last few appearances. I’ll be interested to see how others thought Ness, Hinchy and Martin did against what seemed to be a physical team. Any signs of improvement/promise?

I’d like another home draw too but I think avoiding any team with a plastic pitch would be a good outcome!

It was a good result for Notts against a plucky Alfreton who's tactics worked in the first half very well.

Stuart changed the Notts shape in the 2nd half & Notts took control of the game.

Jatta is proving to be a fantastic signing for Notts, & he has clearly shown that he is a class player at this level.

I think that the Notts defensive unit did well once again, & I'm particularly pleased with how Martin & particularly Brown are both improving in every game they play.

Those two are going to be important to Notts especially while the injury list is so long. Hopefully, some of those injured players will have recovered for the match against Doncaster.
