Match ratings v Dagenham and Redbridge including... Jason Lee 4

Last updated : 23 December 2007 By Gary Moss and Paul Smith
Kevin Pilkington. Reasonably comfortable throughout the afternoon but a lapse in concentration cost Notts a goal as he hauled down Jon Nurse for the Daggers penalty in the second half. The decision was debatable but poor
Canoville...Steady return
positioning cost the side. Other than this Pilko was fairly untroubled. 6

Lee Canoville.
A return to the side at full-back at the expense of an error prone Gary Silk. A comfortable return for the former Boston man. He got forward on numerous occassions includung a scintillating run beating three men. 6

Krystian Pearce.
A shaky display from the young centre-back. He did not look his usual composed self. His inexperience showed seeing red for two bookable offences. The first maybe a tad harsh but a game to forget. 5

Adam Tann.
Again not the greatest of performances. At fault for Pearce's second yellow caused by bad positioning. His distribtuion was poor but he won his headers. 6

Stephen Hunt.
Sterdy a left-back. A no nonsense display. Often kicked the ball into touch but rarely looked like being beaten. Moved inside to good effect when Notts were reduced to ten. 7
McCann...Resolute

Austin McCann.
Plodding along well out of position on the left side of midfield. Works hard and is determined to retain his shirt. Missed a good chance though. He does not shy away from a challenge and was excellent when moved back. 6

Neil MacKenzie.
Back in the team with a neat and tidy showing. Looked rusty though and lacked penetration. A slight concern having been brought off injured in the second period. 6

Richard Butcher.
Capped a good performace with a deserved goal. He tried to take the game to Dagenham but often drifted in and out of the match. An industrious effort nonetheless. 7

Myles Weston. STAR MAN. Had a great game in an unfamiliar right sided role. He terrorised the hosts in the first half and created a handful of good opportunities. He started the move for the Notts opener. He faded in the second half and so did County which says a lot about his influence. 8
Weston...On form


Jason Lee. Did very little to justify a higher NCM rating. He missed a sitter and added little to the side. A very poor showing. We fear he is past his best. 4

Lawrie Dudfield.
A typical Dudfield performance. Always buzzing around and contributed well in the channels but missed a good chance albeit to a great save. 7

Subs

Gary Silk
(for MacKenzie). Came in and did very little wrong but also failed to add anything. 6
