Hand on heart, I think the ref got it right but if he had given both I wouldn't complain much either. I don't think it was stonewall, in fact I think it was less clear-cut than the foul on Nemane, but you could understand it being given due to the contact.

(It looks like Cameron takes his legs but on slow mo he actually checks and the player apparently goes down under contact from - is it Baldwin? - behind him; it's very hard to see the contact that actually spills him. Not saying it is a dive but it would have been very soft to give.)

When played at half speed, it is clear that Cameron wins the ball. As regards the Notts penalty, Nemane was clearly pulled back.

Completely agree. I was nervous second half, but so proud of the grit & determination shown by the lads.

Thought Brinds & Cam played really well, with a good level of aggression, against tricky opposition.

I was worried when we made so many subs in a short space of time, but the team kept things compact, and saw out the game very well.
