I've only seen it once on the Sky Sports highlights, but don't think he even looked down at the guy did he? Only ever looked where he was running from what I saw. I think it'd be difficult to prove any intent there.

No they won't. The draw is an awful result for them considering the way the game played out
Frustrated with the way Notts County 'play', dirty, devious b'stards, so quite happy to have the penalty awarded. TBF to the ref, I thought it was a penalty too.
Its the only thing the ref gave us, McNulty blocked off at least twice and fouls given against him.
Brummie Nick on the radio after needs removing from the airwaves. Wants Ponti and McNulty up front for next round. Said he was an idiot for disagreeing with Benno. The only correct thing he said. I think he thinks he is one of the presenters.

The penalty was massive and gives us real hope, Notts County now have to make some effort to come forward on Friday and I hope and believe this may help us.
We are by far a better football team, they are very streetwise however but I think playing a little more on the break and with our pace up front that this one is far from over.
Our 4,500 fans will also be like a 12th man for us..

Sorry, I was at a football match.
Somehow I feel more confident going there with a job to finish as opposed to defending a one goal lead.
No way a penalty.
Cov 3-0 2nd leg is my guess.
We will struggle in L1 BIG time

With Jones, Andreu and a new left back in this team id actually fancy us to challenge for the playoffs in L1. Just my opinion
It was after the penalty wasn’t it!?
Haven’t seen it back yet but I thought at the time it looked a pen
Just after the penalty. Free kick with a spare man on the back post, possibly Davies. The penalty was soft but the handball was a stone wall, so those evened themselves out, the ref was dire and gave us nothing all game.
I thought at the time his hands were above his head? Haven't seen a reply so maybe wrong, but if you jump up like and your arms are all over the place then you're asking for trouble.
Yah, get that. I'm just very much all about deliberate handball and I think that is what the rule should be.
Hoping the same too, pace trickery and like to score against us.
Tho take him out we’re faced with Stead and Ameobi. Confident Davies and Hyam will do the job again tho.
Davies on Ameobi should be a interesting watch. Ameobi likes a tussle and Davies is happy to go to war with the tricks too.

Much the same here mate, though I think if you're flapping your arms around, perhaps to try to distract your opponent, and as a result the ball hits one of them, then I'd say there's an element of deliberation.
I think Robins was alluding to this in his post match interview. Either way, my sympathy is limited - County were cynical throughout the whole game, blocking off, whining, time wasting etc. About the only decision we got was the pen and imho the draw was a fair result. Wouldn't want to bet on the final outcome on Friday though, think it'll be tight!
At least we are not picking over the bones of a home defeat and everyone looking for scapegoats for another season in Division 4. Until next week that is.
It was a decent game, nothing to ashamed about, lots of positives, a few negatives and a poor crowd by the "best supporters in the world" standards.
Last nights result can only be evaluated after the return game but now it is down to two wins either on penalties or within the allotted time. Tough but possible.

Pop over to Notts Footymad board if you want to see them in meltdown, I’ve been having some fun!! Lol

Robins said he thought Stead was a handful all night and thought the defence worked hard to contain him
We played well in the first half but the pitch really didn't help but we were toothless in the second and got out of jail with the penalty.
If you are still on there chatting, please do make mention of the cheat for their goal at their place (holding Burge so he couldn't get to the ball) and also the deliberate whack to the nuts of McDonald, which is probably a lot worse than Davies's treading on their defender.
Who is that cov1? Trolling idiot
And yes i get the irony of me saying that lol

Did I really just read that the pen. Was the worst ref error in history...
Are they also suggesting that it was a clear dive and should be banned as well.
