City under pressure, another possible pen shout

"watching this"... how?

Ref not having the best of games it seems. I work for a certain broadcaster nearby...  GOAL!! Tomlin

Watching this at work round the corner... Brentford fans moaning at everything aren't they! Should have had a free kick before that corner. City playing some good passing football today, while Tomlin repeatedly gets the expected 'fat b*stard' abuse and laughs it off.

Sky please...

The only hope is a similar comeback to the Coventry game at Sixfields, only not to lose 5-4 this time...

Live in the Hub. Really like MK. Have only lived in Bristol, Edinburgh and MK and despite the obvious charms of the other two, MK isn't 3rd by much (30 mins into the centre of London helps).

Got sick of living in MK after a while, (lived in Monkston Park and Wolverton Park) couldn't hack all the flipping chain bars and restaurants. Moved up to Cobbler a few years ago and haven't looked back! Join us...

Well todays game:

City fans were ****** awesome, the singing ws the best Ive heard our lot sing away for twenty odd years (Granted being in the row of seats on the corner next to the Dongs) singers were everywhere and it must have sounded great on the radio. The Dongs were heard only late in the 2nd half and even then MK Army and MK till I die were pathetic. The "nawty boys" @ green street, near us were pathetic and as for the "Cowshed" well...WTF are they on?

The ref once again give us **** all.....at least one deffo pen not given and as for the Dongs diving on sight, it was just lie watchin the Premiershite.......at least three of their players should have been booked, and the first 20 mins all they did is "try" to intimidate City with the strongarm stuff...failed this time which it didnt under O Drosscolls shamble.

We for some reason did not ever get into top gear and put their defence under sustained pressure till the 2nd half. I dont think Fielding was ever under major pressure at all, despite our constant poor clearances from defence. If we could have really pressurised em, their defence looked far from assured and their strike force didnt look anything like a five goal machine..

Because of the massive turnout from the Red Army there were queues for everything, and leaving was worse than leaving the BS3 area after a home game. We live localish and decided to go to the nearby ASDA for some food and didnt leave till near as damn it an hour after full time, saw loads of City fans still queuing to leave. We can get onto the M4 eastbound quicker than it took us to leave Bletchly for the A404 tonight. **** KNOWS what the Dongs will do if they make the Championship...

all in all frustrating for me, although we're still top, I deffo think we could have won that on another day.

Oh and MK is still a shit town, with plastic fans. Today was ladies day with some old bollocks organized to get punters in..which you would have thought wouldnt be hard top playing second placed team. If one or other side had won, I suspect the winner would have gone up as Champions..

What was that ladies day all about?! Played some girly music at half time, wheeled the women's team out and then you couldn't even see the girl singing! Cringeworthy. MK is a weird place...

How annoying and pointless are Peterborough FC

Disgusting football club.

Result! Mrs plans have changes, and I can go with the kids! Easy from Mk. I am a fify something, and suddenly I am excited like a kid. Football eh!

2-4 us.

Would have been even easier if Cov had stayed at Sixfields! That 5-4 last year was ridiculous.

Beautiful

Bit of a shame. We could have done with Vale winning that game, although it was never going to be likely. We could do with the table balancing out a bit, at the moment if we were to lose a couple of games we could end up slipping down the table.

Unfortunately that lot will definitely be up there come the end of the season. The yo yo team of the Championship and League 1.

The New Saints FC winning.

Are we playing 3-5-2 again?

Must be time to rethink this 3-5-2 set up. Looked decent against Walsall but I'd rather us set up like we did against Tamworth and just have a go at team from now on, from the outset.

Yahoo!

Come on lads please don't throw this away...

Can I be the first to suggest we might be in a L2 relegation battle this time next year?

Probably. We're falling like a stone, cannot believe how poor we have been over the past few years. Different managers, different players...like I said, cursed.

I swear this football club is cursed.

****

So frustrating. Another miserable result on the cards by the sound of it.

Although some are bemoaning the use of stats, these stats are 'blind' to what type of chances these strikers have had. Therefore, to say Baldock misses more 'gilt edged' chances is irrelevant when comparing him against the likes of Wells etc. How many 'great' chances have others missed? Yes it's frustrating, but Baldock is definitely good enough for this league, and shows passion and commitment too.

Fking hell Umbongo.

 

Do they still sell that?

 Yeah, they drink it in the Congo.

But I wanna go to Manchester 

Our time will come...it might be the year 2087, but it will happen!

I don't care that Nigella is a raving coke fiend with a mans name. She'd definitely get it.

 She's a juicy bit of crumpet mate, that there's no denying.
