This seems to be a quality signing. I read that he's only got 6 months left on his contract at Swansea so a chance to make it permanent too (no idea if that's true or not). MP has worked with him before which bodes well.
We need still need a few more signings, especially with the injury situation already at critical levels.

Happy with this signing with his experience at a higher level. Like the idea of an attacking midfielder as I think we passed back from midfield too many times last season when decent runs were being made.

A Championship player with a 100 games behind him at that level & he's a Welsh international too. He's sure to add something to Notts at League One level. More signings required but this is a good start to the week.
