    Definitely happened. Vincenti and their defender both ended up in a heap in the 6 yard box. Would guess it was about 10-15 mins into the second half.

    Clive Eakin and Barry Quinn said the same thing in the commentary. Watch the match highlights. Time and time again it was long through balls to the strikers and the keeper it was pretty much long punts from him too.

    I didn't. Another made up statement. I was clearly joking. I said 'I take it you don't go up much.' A joke.

    Just checked and what I said was that for the most part Mansfield seemed to be only using long punts upfield and that was entirely true. Out of every ten balls up field I would bet you that eight of those were directly up to their forwards. They were looking so dangerous WHEN they went out...

    Think it was a whipped in cross from Haynes, Vincenti dived in , in the 6 yard box and it just missed him. Second half.

    I think you will find that entirely untrue. Mansfield had great joy WHEN they went wide, but they didn't utilize that enough and they did keep insisting on lumping the ball long to the front two. I never, ever said they were ONLY long ball merchants. They kept choosing that route though time...

    Vincenti could have scored and was a whisker away from doing so. I would call that offering some sort of threat, albeit it was just the one occasion.

    It was worse than McDonald's in my opinion, but I am not convinced it warranted more than a yellow.

    I thought there was contact on McNulty, but not enough to warrant a foul.

    The guy hit it well, but it does seem to go straight through Burge's hands. Just watched it again and would also say that Biamou header was a good header. Beats his man and has to twist his body to get his head round it. Decent effort.

    It was. But from there you would expect it to fly in like a rocket to beat the keeper. Need a different angle for clarity.

    Hmm, think you need to watch that again, Grendel.

    Hmmm... disagree on Grendel's opinion on Biamou's header. I thought he did well there. I still think that first one of theirs wasn't a penalty too. Burge looks at error there unfortunately. Anyone else concur?

    No,I too would prefer the game played in the right way. Unfortunately these are the times we live in.

    Ireland going to get a decent result tonight? I'm going for 1-1, which will do them just fine.

    Jones WAS worse than Vincenti. Vincenti came close to scoring and won a number of headers. Jones did nothing all game.

    One positive from today I suppose that once again it took a very long range effort in order for us to let a goal in.

    Well that's a key point. When Jones plays well he gives us options and opens defences. When he is anonymous like he was today, we really struggle.
