didn't realise you were as good away tbf but on paper a top6 side playing a (then) bottom half side at home should be comfortable.

 

[Bcfc@downend]

We haven't lost away since September but that is bound to end soon.

Scunthorpe are right on it now.... Glad we don't have to play you again

We're doing alright.

We keep only our 2nd clean sheet of the season though tonight which has been a big problem for us, our defence has look solid lately which is a big plus. We somehow managed to win with three CF's playing at the start and finished off with four CM's player with Neil Bishop on the wing, great stuff.

Your dour manager cracked a smile yet ?

 

[Scumarmy.]

My bad, wrong end of the stick. Yes I now have 3 likes, so I should thank you really.

I was deliberately fishing for a reaction tbf, you'll get used to my ways. Welcome to the forum.

Us and blunts making a late surge for the autos.

Nope.

I literally have no idea how he manages to motivate the players, he must have the most mundane voice ever.

Autos don't include top 8 btw

I suppose so

The five automatic chasers have some 'gimmes coming up this weekend.

City: Colchester A
MK: Peterborough H
Swindon: Crawley H
Preston: Scunthorpe H
Sheff Utd: Coventry H

I can see five wins there, with possibly Preston's the hardest match followed by ours.

We do however enter a run of four away games in five, which isn't going to easy. If we maintain our lead over that time it's looking good.

I'd argue we have a tough game. Bit of a rivalry between us and Peterborough which has built up since our first season as MK Dons. They always seem to raise their game against us and we have struggled against them since they beat us in the play-offs in 2011. It should/could be 3-0/4-0 but would definitely take a tight 1-0. Despite both team's respective forms/positions etc, I can still see us getting beat. Fucking Posh.

 

[Camborne Gills]

And thanks Scummy

 

[RavenBish]

Blades won't get automatics. Pretty sure of that, they're not good enough to close that gap.

 

[Hooped Wizard]

We're in the play-offs not top 8 you senile old c***

 

[Camborne Gills]

To sum up, 2 from 4 for the autos, Blunts in the POs, and anyone from Donny - Crewe could come 6th. Simple

 

[Bcfc@downend]

We're in the play-offs not top 8 you senile old c***

Play offs are only for the peasants,sweetie xxxx

 

[blademan89]

Weve got to play em twice

 

[Bcfc@downend]

Weve got to play em twice

Good luck with that .... Can you rehire YOUR match officials from AG ?

What's happening GK wise? I assume you've brought in a loan backup or had a third keeper in the squad

We signed Luke Daniels as a new number 1 and he's been class so far. We also signed Joe Anyon who is just a benchwarmer.

 

[Bcfc@downend]

Harsh

Yes,that what I was thinking .... I maybe old but I am NOT a woman's tuppence

 

[JoeJoeJoeJoe]

He's from Doncaster. He has no filter.

 

[Bcfc@downend]

What is filter, code for - brain ?

 

[JJH]

Good night for all - expect Swindon.

Didn't expect PNE to be let back into it, let alone letting Sheff Utd have an outside chance, but I guess it just goes to show the quality of this league really isn't that great.

I mean - we have played P'boro twice this season, and it's been almost embarrassing how comfortable it's been, but their still in contention for the Playoffs?!

 

[JonBCFC]

We're in the play-offs not top 8 you senile old c***

So... You're still in the top 8?

 

[blade1889]

its fine, we have a great record against them :/

We're not still in contention for the play-offs. Just because we are tenth doesn't mean we're in contention as that would mean we actually have to win some games.

If the same Posh turn up at your place as they did at Ashton Gate last night you will definitely NOT have a tough game.

I still can't believe people think we are going to be a tough game! We are fucking abysmal!

 

[Hurrikeen]

If we can beat Orient on Saturday then it may create a little gap between a couple of teams chasing 6th and the rest of the league.
