Strachan has suffered with a hamstring injury this season

Notts County manager Ian McParland was delighted to see Gavin Strachan score the winner over Exeter on Saturday but is awaiting news on his injury.

The 30-year-old picked a hamstring injury shortly after scoring his first goal for the club.

McParland told BBC Radio Nottingham: "He takes a little bit of stick from the crowd but I'll tell you he gives 120% every week."

The Magpies came from behind to win 2-1 at Meadow Lane on Saturday.

McParland added: "He never hides, even if he's having a bad game - he is an honest boy."

Delroy Facey was also on the scoresheet for County who were trailing the visitors after a Marcus Stewart penalty.

Strachan then converted a Myles Weston cross to seal the three points on the 39th minute in freezing conditions at Meadow Lane.

The BBC blogger picked up a hamstring problem at the end of October and missed most of last season due to injury.
