Love or hate them the Dons have made a fantastic return to league 1 .
Sitting 3rd in the table 81 pionts with 3 games to play , certain of a play off place still in with a chance of automatic promotion .
What dream are made for.

Form Guide.
Crewe - home - drew 2-2
Leeds -away - lost 0-2
Brighton - home - won 2-0
Southend - away - won 2-0
Bristol Rovers - home - won 2-1
Scunthorpe - away - won 1-0.

Full home record

12 wins - 4 draws - 6 defeats -42 goals -42 conceded .

Prediction , we'll need to be at our very best to get anything out of this one.

MKD 5 Saddlers 1 - wouldn't surprise me in the slightest.

Then again, MKD 0 Saddlers 1 wouldn't surprise me that much either! :?

Sadly, I think it'll be nearer the former than the latter though. :(

Did Asps do you a deal on returning the costume ?

I'll be using the same old tried and tested method of disguise as i always use for end of season last away games. A drunkard, it's a roll i am familer, comfortable with and best known for. Why alter tradition :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

We will win this one 45-47 after the lads forget about playing football and turn it into an open flowing game of rugby.

Evo to wake up from a drunken stupor and realise he is in the away wend at MK Dons and go on a single handed rampage and demolish the stadium.

MK Dons 0
Walsall 1

Duno who will score

Evo to play in goals after Clayton and Rene are injured in warm up thanks to DZ who throws his blow up sheep at the pair. Evo is then sold for a chip fryer in the summer so we can have chips again.

Tinned and Phil to protest out side the Banks while game is going on , they give up and go for a Happy Meal in McDonalds

Cheeky barsteward.

1. I'll be at the game for my 2nd away game of the season (hardened home and awayer me).

2. I'd prefer Burger King.


We'll lose 2 - 1.

Pedro & FBIG to cross-dress by wearing big white bra's during the game. Evo hears this on WM's 3 nano-second update of our game and he hires a helicopter to race him there for the second half.

Several minibuses to finally arrive at 4.45 p.m. after a planned rendevous at a Fenny Stratford pub results in the mysterious disappearance of most of the passengers.

Walsall: Ince, Weston, Gerrard, Smith, Palmer, Bradley, Mattis, Hughes, Zaaboub, Ibehre, Deeney.

Subs: Gilmartin, Taundry, Nicholls, Boertien, Davies.

What to read from that?

Rene has had his chance? Ince might be here next season? He doesn't fancy Boertein? The Ricketts experiement is over?

They're going to say Ricketts was injured in last week's game and that's why he "limped" (i.e. walked very slowly) off.

Neither Gilmartin nor Boertien can really have too many complaints and both will be lucky to play for the club again after the end of this season. GIlmartin for obvious reasons and Boertien because his form's been useless ever since he got the contract extension in January. I have some sympathy as he was treated abysmally during December and January, but that was nothing to do with Hutchings and he can only judge him on what he's seen since - which has been rubbish.

Ah Jorge, there you are, how the bloody-hell are you?

Good score so far, and very unexpected. This is a difficult afternoon, I so much want Posh NOT to go up, but I so much want MKD to miss out too. I fear it's all a rather forlorn hope that both will fail, and that this afternoon is going to end in 3 points for us and yet still I'll be ultimately disappointed.

All Franchise as we enter the final 10 minutes. 15 shots to two.

I'm well as ever, Geoff. I know what you mean about not wanting Posh to go up - I think on the balance of things I'd rather Posh go up, as at least they are a real football team - if an ever so slightly vile one.

A good win showing again that we can beat anyone in the league on our day. Jabo is making a compelling case for a new contract offer.
