"The two goals came completely out of the blue through individual errors and those sort of mistakes - you have to eradicate those. Clean sheets on away games are massively important and you can't afford those sort of mistakes."
"We were very comfortable after the goal, we were dominating possession, dominating the game and then two moments of madness have cost us dear. We tried all sorts of different formations, different ways, put on several different options but we weren't able to unlock the door. We had a goal disallowed - it was all us in the second half but they defended very deeply and we weren't able to get round them."
"They worked extremely hard but every team that plays against us is going to do that and you have to match it and you have to stay with it for the duration of the game and not just for the first half hour. You have to keep that momentum and tempo for the duration and get used to it and every team that's going to play against us is going to be like that. There's no doubt about it, it's a big, big game when we come to town and you have to get used to it."
Asked about the Dawson incident, where the Stags midfielder was looked to have been booked twice but not red carded, Allen said "I wasn't aware of that, I never spotted that - was it a Graham Poll, was it? If that's the case, then so be it but even so, with the team we've got we should be able to come here and win these games."
