“I wanted a spirited performance and I thought in the first half we created the best chances and were unlucky not to go one or two up.

“The players held their nerve; I thought they were magnificent and they showed a really good, spirited performance.

He continued: “There are a lot of teams who would’ve crumbled under the pressure at Mansfield, that’s for sure.

“There was once or twice on the break where I thought we could end up winning.

“It’s a great point. It’s a hard place to come so I’m really pleased for the players.”
