“But I struck it nice. I have been waiting to score one like that for a while and I am really happy with it.
“I was a bit tired today so I couldn't even be bothered to celebrate. But the fans were just unbelievable and I am over the moon with it.
“I don't think there was a spare seat in the crowd. That's what you want as a player and it was sweet to get six points off Notts this season.”

“But the goal gave us something to hold onto.
“First half I think we gave them a bit too much respect but second half we matched them up really well, stood on their box and said try to play through us.
“Notts have quality with good players in their team. So it was just about weathering that storm. We knew they would put pressure on us.
“It was a good, entertaining game even though it was only a 1-0.
