As Above, every time i do a quick down shift like when your flying in to a corner and your brakeing and engine braking the Fookin Gear knob keeps slipping off the shaft so it doesn,t go in to gear.

you will probably find that the notches at the botom of the shifter are worn down or broken.
The only solution is a new shifter handle, or superglue.

or drill a hole in the bottom of the handle, and into the shaft. Then use a discrete screw at the base of the handle.
