    Yeah. Surprised they also missed Ponticelli's goal that was onside too.

    Can't tell from that angle. Ref had a better view. Most certainly wasn't stonewall! Burge has come out and said Rose was diving all game and there simply wasn't any great mass appeal from their players. I did think the one where Rose got booked for diving looked like a pen though. Thought...

    Have you watched the highlights back? You really, really sure they were all screaming for a penalty after the ball came back off the post? If so we were indeed at a different game. Hardly an appeal to be made there from the Mansfield players. Definitely also looks like Doyle pulled out of the...

    Don't think he needs to lose a debate to turn personal to be honest. It's an inbuilt response system. :)

    Flogging a dead horse there, Nick. There are clearly two things wrong, albeit that they are linked. 1. We are not creating enough. If Jones doesn't threaten, we as a team tend not to threaten. 2. Two holding midfielders leaves us lacking going forwards. This of course is linked to the first...

    In terms of the only thing that beat us.

    Nope. I would say not. Was he in the six yard box diving in for the ball? Guess it's hard to tell from that clip.

    Can we blame McNulty for that? Surely that was down to tactical deployment from Mark Robins.

    Yeah, I think Nazon will come in for Ponticelli, because McNulty did play well.

    Yeah, I don't think 'dominated' is the right word. They simply had more threat and stretched our defence, but when we had the ball they were much more compact.

    We did have a 10 minute spell in the second half too, but it was more just possession rather than threat.

    I couldn't see the point of Haynes yesterday. If Robins told him to play in that restrained way then we might as well have played Stokes. Thought the whole point of Haynes was for his attacking play.

    Yeah, tis a shame. Would definitely have considered going if City weren't playing.

    Yup and we became clueless. They pretty much marked Jones out of the game and then we ran out of ideas.

    We are simply not creating enough chances.

    Could have happened yesterday had we scored that first goal. First 15 mins we were all over them and they had no answer.

    I thought McNulty played quite well yesterday. Not as prevalent in the second half, but then of course none of the players imposed themselves much after half time.

    We didn't create many opportunities yesterday that I can recall.
