Notts County midfielder Jim O'Brien has explained how belief in his work ethic is the only motivation he needs following a recent resurgence in form after social media abuse was directed towards the 34-year-old.
The Scotsman was the subject of a number of tweets following performances at the start of the National League season, with a minority of supporters suggesting that O'Brien was not good enough for Luke Williams' side.
But since Connell Rawlinson jumped to his team-mate's aid on Twitter, O'Brien has been simply brilliant in the Magpies midfield, putting on excellent performances against Dagenham & Redbridge and Aldershot, forming a great partnership with fellow midfielder Matty Palmer.
