Craig Short right to criticise Notts County - Thompson
Thompson began his career at Nottingham Forest
Notts County defender John Thompson says manager Craig Short was right to criticise the players following their poor start to the League One season.
Notts have lost 3-0 to both Huddersfield and Oldham, prompting Short to question his side's attitude.
Thompson told BBC Radio Nottingham: "The manager was right and all the players are disappointed in themselves.
"He had every right to say what he did and he's probably been let down by the side in both games."
Short was furious with his side after their defeat at Oldham last week saying his players needed to give 20% more and warned he would make big changes if things did not improve.
Notts are looking for their first league win of the season on Saturday when they host fellow League One new-boys Dagenham and Redbridge at Meadow Lane.
"We're hoping to put it right against Dagenham and I think we have every chance of doing it," added Thompson.
