Doesn't seem long ago that MK Dons fans were saying that they wanted to get relegated from the championship because they were fed up of losing most weeks, how silly do you look now.

You mean one person no longer on the forum? I bet he cares so much...
It's shit, we shouldn't be where we are but results don't lie and we deserve to go down. We'll hopefully bounce back quickly to grace you all with the wonders of franchising before you all forget us

The performance by MK Dons against us today was horrific. I get they were down regardless but not a single of their players seemed to care. Chuks Aneke committed more fouls that passes. We didn't need to even get into second gear and we won at a canter. The ground was so quiet until a bit of booing at the end.

They don't care, that's our main issue this season. Major clear out needed

I'm surprised that we're only 1 point away from safety. I fully expected to get absolutely tonked at Wigan today.

I'd dearly love to get that point at Donny on Tuesday as Bury's win against Pompey today worries me.

Don't be worried. We were fucking dreadful and yet still only lost to a goalkeeping howler.

Two pedestrian teams in Rochdale and Oxford yesterday. Robinson has made us a good bit harder to break down, getting some good defensive work out of Ledson and Brannagan in midfield.

Neither side had much going forwards. I am far from impressed by Mowatt, who was supposedly in his strongest position. Eastwood made one cracking save and otherwise had a very quiet game. Looking at the table now, I'm surprised Rochdale didn't throw more at us. They really needed the points.

Millen sent them out to kick shit out of us for the second half. It worked to the extent that we had a few who will be with the physio on Monday morning. Hopefully, all will be fit for the Plymouth game on Tuesday.

Hope Millen gets the manager's job and takes them down to the non-league next season.

Agree on Mowatt, he was awful yesterday. It was noticeable that a clearly unfit Robbie Hall was far, far more effective when he replaced him.

I reckon we deserved the win but neither team were great. They had more of the ball in the 1st but we created more chances. 2nd half we were the better team and if we had some composure in front of goal (Lego and Obika spring to mind) we could have had a good chance for a couple more. Certainly, never felt we were going to concede when 2-1 up.

The Rochdale player (Callum Camps?) who gave away both penalties. What an idiot to do the same thing twice as he committed basically the same foul. The 1st one, he compounded his error of overrunning the ball.

Do Rochdale players have a thing about Robbie Hall as they had a fair few attempts at taking him out considering he wasn't on that long?

Edit: Also credit to the Assistant Ref who stood his ground on the 2nd penalty after the Ref initially said no.

Be disappointed, the only way he would have got it is if he kept us up.

Before we appointed Lovell the three names being bandied about were Steve Evans, Graham Westley and Keith Millen. l still have recurring nightmares about what might have been....

I reckon the Rochdale fans must be fuming, especially against the player who gave away both penalties, a game they desperately needed at least a point (which would have kept them out of the relegation zone), and they throw it away like that, conceding an equalizer just a few minutes after scoring.

Pure speculation here, but I thought Hall got booked for a late tackle. The first challenge smacked of retribution for me. The second was a bit much and drew a reaction from Lego, think those handbags led to the third.

By the end their no 6 in particular was blowing out his arse. Tried to clip Ricardinho's heels and couldn't even do that, gave away a corner because he couldn't sort his feet out. I think they will drop now.

Wimbledon should confirm their survival against our jokers tonight.

Yeah, I'd be disappointed if we didn't given that you've been asleep for the last few weeks and we've been putting in some decent performances. If it came down to getting a point at home to Bury on Saturday I wouldn't be very confident - exactly the sort of game we've lost so many times over the last few seasons and Bury's corpse has been twitching a bit since being relegated.

No...hardly figured at all. Very unlikely we'll keep him based on what he's shown or been allowed to show.

How has Williams been getting on...he was so disappointing for us.

Hopefully we can do our bit tonight and beat Walsall to help out local boys Oldham n Dale, although i doubt it unfortunately.

Bit like Knott by the sounds of it!

Played quite a few minutes at the start of his loan but we switched to a different formation, which has seen his game time very limited.

Scunny 2-0 up on Plymouth.

Looks like Charlton may be all but securing their play-off place without kicking a ball, which could be bad for Oldham.

Well done Wimbledon in securing League 1 status and at least one more season above the Dons.
