County a treat to watch - McParland

09 August 2009 15:00
In their first game since the arrival of new director of football Sven-Goran Eriksson, County produced a sensational display to leave the Meadow Lane faithful drooling. Lee Hughes marked his debut with a hat-trick and there were also goals for fellow debutants Ben Davies and Brendan Moloney as the hosts recorded an opening-day victory for the first time in nine years. "It was a treat to watch and the big difference for us this season is that we have more energy in midfield and players who can put the ball in the net," said a delighted McParland. "We went 11 games undefeated in the early part of last season, but drew nine of them. Hopefully, this time, those draws will become victories and we can build on this fantastic start. "It's good for me that all the goals came from debutants. Hopefully, that means I have made the right choices in the players I have signed. "Pre-season has gone very well and, if we continue to show the same commitment, honesty and togetherness, we will be fine."
