MK Dons (A) League One, 12th November 3pm

Where's AM when you want to take the piss? :mrgreen:

Sorry mate, was in Krakow, actually in Auschwitz-Birkenau at the time, which just goes to show that football is actually not all that important after all!

Pleased to learn that we did not lose, but the result feels like two points lost, as does the league position afterwards. Onwards and upwards however, look at 'sarfend' who are the ones 'doing a Barnsley' at the moment. :? We just don't seem to be showing the consistency to do likewise regrettably. :(

A point away is always welcome but we should have won this, for most of the game we seemed to be in control but had no idea how to take that matter.

In the second half we had 4 good scoring chances which would have killed the game off but did not take any.

Last 10 mins we looked like we decided to hang on defending deeper which with our defence is not a good idea.A the equaliser by MK only one team was going to win it(not us) so after being best team for most of game we wer lucky to hang on.

Unfortunately we have periods in games where the defence decides retreating to the edge of their own box is the way to go.
It gets infuriating when you see opposition players sauntering in to our half and there's 2-3 players all available to make a challenge but instead they're backing off and backing off until the opposition player takes a shot or plays it in for someone else.

Exactly what happened everyone around me knew the equaliser was coming and when it did we went to pieces and were lucky to end up with point.
