DONS V QPR Tonights the night!!

Well guys...
Tonights the night we get to hopefully progress through to a huge game against Chelsea at our place. Personally I think we have a good chance!
Think with them losing to Newcastle on Sunday helped us a bit. We didnt want them to roast Newcastle and gain a bit of confidence did we?
Anyone know how many tickets we have sold? With the huge following we should make enough noise to cheer the boys on, an early goal by us will help.
Cant wait for the game and will be down there about 5 tonight with 5 others...See you all there
COYD
Prediction - Draw, extra time and then penalties.....and WE WIN!!!!!

Tez, sorry mate,QPR were without 4 of the main squad last night ( and Sunday for that matter ). Barton,Taarabt,Faurlin and Traore, one suspended, one injured and two in the African cup of nations.

10 points if you can guess which one was suspended?

Not often you can come out of a 3rd round tie against Premier League opposition and think you've thrown it away and can be truely gutted..

..I am so proud to be a Dons fan after last night's display, could not have asked for more, on that topic I thought QPR were truely terrible if that was a Premiership team with all due respect..
..But lets be fair, we threw that first game away regardless if it was offside, but anyway I don't wanna downgrade my team after a spirited set of games after we truely outclassed, outpassed, outplayed, outeverythinged a Premiership side...

...I truely hav faith in the team now that we CAN get automatic promotion whereas last year I highly doubted our chances...I truely believe.

UP THE FRANCHISE!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think you could ask them to score McMaccer, had they taken any of the early chances I don't think QPR would have come back.

When they went forward MK Dons looked dangerous until they got near the goal, then at times they seemed to panic or want to do just one more pass.

Tez have you got any answer right?

I guess the big difference between League 1 and Premiership is putting away your chances. I have admiration for all the players but we have to anticipate more in the box and be ready to put them away.

A good night in London though and hope we meet another big boy soon, although we need to push for promotion now.

Exactly Furz, I appreciate style and I'm not complaining at all, I just wish Robinson would let the players shoot in the box instead of waiting till we're near enough the 6 yard box...

We were the better side over the two legs yet failed to score the goals our play deserved.
In my opinion we are the best footballing side in League One, but that alone doesnt mean we will get promotion.
We still need another striker as we havent got a striker who will get us 20 plus goals this season.
We conceded yet another goal from a corner and set plays tend to cause us trouble, we also find it hard to cope with teams who use a more direct and physical style of play, will be interesting to see how we fare against Stevenage next week.
