Nathan Tyson becomes John Pemberton's third Chesterfield signing

Nathan Tyson, pictured right, has joined Chesterfield on loan from Notts County.

The 37-year-old has joined the Spireites on loan until the end of the seaon from Notts County.

He will not be able to play against his parent club when the two clubs meet on February 1.

He also cannot be recalled by County.

Pemberton said: “He adds experience which is important and is what we needed.

“I think in his career he’s scored 122 goals so hopefully he’ll add some goals to us.

“He’s played at a high level and he fits with what we are trying to put together in the dressing room.

“It’s competition for everybody so when we get Mike (Fondop) back we’ll have four strikers and two young ones which are coming through.”

The forward will link up with goalkeeper Ross Fitzsimons and defender Matt Tootle who are also currently on loan at Town from the Magpies.

Pemberton, who worked with Tyson when he was a coach at Nottingham Forest, was keen to bring in a striker with Mike Fondop suspended for another two matches.

Tyson is Pemberton’s third loan signing after Fitzsimons and Burnley defender Jordan Cropper.

Tyson started his career at Reading before moving on to Wycome Wanderers where he earnt himself a £900,000 move to Forest before joining rivals Derby County. His other clubs include Blackpool and Doncaster Rovers amongst several more.

He had a previous spell at County in 2014 before re-joining the Meadow Lane club again last August.

So far this season Tyson has made 16 appearances for County in all competitions, scoring once.

County manager Neal Ardley said: “Nathan leaves with our very best wishes having been a consummate professional throughout his time with us.

“Although it’s been a difficult season for him, his attitude in training and application in matches has been outstanding.

“He deserves the opportunity to go and play regularly again and we weren’t going to stand in his way.”
