Adam Tann's first goal this season saw off Chester and halted Notts County's slide towards the relegation zone. The skipper put his head in where it hurts to nod home a Jason Lee flick from close range to give County a deserved win, and their first of 2008.
Things might have been different but for a stunning save from the hosts' goalkeeper Kevin Pilkington two minutes before their winning goal.
The Magpies stopper somehow palmed a Kevin Sandwith free-kick over the bar.
