Plenty of positives. Jatta with 2 goals and a very clever assist. Didzy with some neat touches in the build up. Crowley playing where he should, showed his class (keep him in the CAM role, I'm begging). Tsaroulla put in some good crosses (keep him on his favoured side I'm begging), Platt pocketed Andy Cook. Bass claimed everything. Abbott was relentless in his counter pressing and Austin worked hard, but this time had the consistency to go with it, counter pressing well and ball carrying

No-one had a bad game today, a complete role reversal from last weekends outing! Could make a case for a lot of them. Bass helped us by coming and catching everything, Platt was a rock-solid in the middle of defence, Crowley showed how effective he can be when he's on the edge of the oppositions box and even the wingbacks in Austin and Tsaroulla looked dangerous today! But for his goals and all round game I'll give it to Jatta.

It's always a good sign when the players are behind a manager, or head coach in our case now! I think the culture we have at Notts means this should be a thing of the past for us, every player knows what they are signing up for in terms of playing style when they sign for us. We've seen it countless times before when players just give up and are no longer inspired or believe in the managers' tactics.

That was a much-needed win, and after that crazy 5-minute spell that effectively won us the game we had a really solid second half and didn’t let Bradford create a clear-cut chance. We did struggle to play against the Bradford press at times in the second half but we didn’t do anything stupid this time. And we probably created the best chance of the second half too. We didn’t control the game in manor we perhaps want to but we made up for it by being well organised limiting Bradford to half-chances and long shots. I think we missed an out-ball in that second half, someone with pace who could punish teams when they step up on to us. Feels like Martin is just here to make up the numbers and Brown just isn’t having much of an impact. I saw an article in the week about Baldwin and Platt and how both clubs got a good deal. Now I’m grateful for his time with us, I’ll always remember his goals saving us in the Boreham Wood play-off, but my word we absolutely got the better deal! Today Platt was just super solid, won pretty much all his duels and made some vital clearances.

Oh dear. More Net Zero misery for Households.

And he did put it right against Bradford & so did the team, ablely managed by Stuart Maynard.

Your Sunday Morning Weather

A great performance from Didzy today.

Well we have finally come to the shortest day and the winter solstice. It also happens to be the first day of winter, but Autumn was bad enough wasn't it Had an early start this morning going to the superstore to get some last minute goodies that the wife needed to get us over Xmas. It's certainly a different atmosphere compared to last week post match. It's a nice feeling that Notts played so well this afternoon. I'm so pleased for Stuart Maynard who has taken a lot of stick on social media this week. Him and the team had the perfect response today. MK Dons got hammered today & we meet them on boxing day.

A great collective performance from the Notts team today. Dan Crowley was back to doing what he does well, Bass had a great game & once again the defensive unit of Ness, Bedeau & Platt played well as well as Palmer & Abbott in front of them McGoldrick had another great game, but I'm going to give Jatta the Man of the Match for his two goals + one assist, & very nearly getting a hat trick but for a good save by the Bradford goalie.

Match report from the BBC website. Notts County 3-0 Bradford City WWW.BBC.CO.UK A double from Alassana Jatta and a David McGoldrick goal ensures...

MK Dons got hammered by Newport Grimsby lost to Swindon AFC Wimbledon lost to Chesterfield Port Vale drew with Carlisle today. Notts just 5 points off an automatic promotion place.

A very happy Stuart Maynard's post match interview.

It’s got to be Jatta for his two goals.

The three goals scored by Notts today.

That result was just what we wanted and hopefully silence the fickle moaners for a while, it’s amazing what a win can do this sets us up nicely for the hectic Christmas period, well done Stuart Maynard and well done the lads.

What a great return to form by the Notts team this afternoon. I am including the whole starting 11 in my list of players to choose your Man of the Match. It was a great team performance today Bass, Jatta, Didzy, Crowley, Ness, Platt, Tsaroulla, Palmer, Bedeau, Austin & Abbott.

could not agree more with all of this, I think its obvious the players play for Stu and the assistants. Hopefully this puts the Maynard out knobbers back in their box for a bit. Can't feel more sorry for the guy losing 6/7 of his preferred starting 11 and then dealing with the maynard out crowd on the socials. hopefully January is a good time for late christmas presents ideally in midfield i think, although wouldn't say no to a Macca loan return

Great piece of management by Stuart putting the same side out that failed miserably against Salford. The players had very much to prove and they passed with flying colours today. This could have been a hard match with the conditions today but the team responded to Stuart's rallying call and did him proud I think we have to give credit where credit's due to Stuart & his team who prepared the team to perform the way they did. Crowley had his best game since returning from injury & I think he was the driving force today. If Notts can play the way they did today they aren't going to lose many matches going forward, & with more players to return, things are looking good again. The January window might be the icing on the cake if it is a good window for Notts.

A good game, good to see Notts return to winning ways. i was nearly dancing round the gaff after the quick-fire triple.

League 2 table. Notts back in the playoff places
