Vital Reserves Team
While there's no doubt that the red card completely changed the game, the way we dismantled 10 man Newport was absolutely clinical. We really could have scored 6 or 7.

The first half an hour was very scrappy but having a ref who seemingly blew his whistle every 30 seconds really didn't help. The way that we grabbed the game by the scruff of the neck after the sending off was massively pleasing.

There were lots of good performances today but I thought Stead deserved particular praise for putting in an excellent shift.

Hopefully, this will give us a real confidence boost and help us get back to the sort of form we showed in September. Well done Notts!
 
Shades of the Lincoln game, the turning point being the red card. At least we then outplayed the 10 men and could have had a hatfull of goals.
