Tricky one here eh lads?
I'm backing our home form to shine through against a strong Notts County outfit. They'll take the lead through Zoko against the run of play midway through the first half but Ryan Lowe will equalise on his birthday for us soon after coming on for an ineffectual Charlie mcdonald. Then in the last 15 minutes a Jimmy Bullard thunderbolt will seal the game for us in dramatic fashion. Dons and their supersubs to prevail 2-1 for me.
Robbo's pre match quotes:
"They've brought in some good players and they've got a budget to compete this year.
"They've got some players I respect immensely, one player I'd dearly love in my team - I'm not going to say who it is, but I couldn't afford him.
"We know the enormity of the challenge, we know we're going to be in a battle, it's our hardest game of the season (so far).
"If we overcome this, it's going to be a tremendous step in the right direction."
Any idea who the player Robbo would "dearly love" is?

Look at the Nott County players - if there is one limping that will be the one
I think it will be a good game tonight, as I expect Notts County to be an attacking side, so there will be a lot of open football, and that could work in MK Dons favour (think I will still stick with 2-2 though)

1-1 for me boys, can see us causing them a lot of problems but them having the 'quality' to scrape through and gain a draw!

I just don't like Notts County.
So I say 7-0 to MK; a game we'll all never forget.

Well I was bit off I guess.
I still don't like them.

Reading the match stats it says we had one shot on target is that correct.

there were more than that. Tough team. And a point was ok, I don't think we will see many harder teams. By the end they were just hanging in for a draw.

Stats must be wrong, even on the BBC Report it says "MK Dons began brightly, having several shots blocked and forcing Magpies keeper Bartosz Bialkowski into a fine save to deny Luke Chadwick"
So unless the goal was off target then it was at least 2 shots.
