    Some of the team picks itself, but it is anyone's guess as to the Midfield and which forwards KM picks this time. Our problem is we havent had the same 11 players on the park for any consecutive match.
    I am crossing over my team from the other post and believe he should drop Bonne tomorrow. Norwood with strong players behind him could do the business.

    If we win, it will be a great result and Play-offs within our reach, a loss, then I feel that's it for this season, and the Club and staff can consolidate all areas, and try to keep players motivated.

    My team

    Walton

    Donacien Wolf Edmunson

    Burns Morsy Aluko Thompson

    Chaplin Norwood Celina

    My prediction 1-1, goodish result. But hope to be surprised with such an amazing Town Away support.

    Anyone going?

    I tell you what, we are not expected to win this so any kind of result is going to give everyone a boost.

    I don’t think the club should exist at all. It was one of the most shameful episodes in the history of English football. For that reason I always want to beat them especially.

    7,000+ strong army of blues. What could possibly go wrong?

    6-0 Town.

    I strongly suspect this will be a draw, however, I’m predicting another 1-0 Town win!

    Mounting excitememt and a little anxious!
    I am reassured that while Morsy was out we got results. And with him leading and driving forwards, we might just win this.
    Wouldnt be surprised to see both Thompson & Bakinson play. Our known weakness is how clinical we’re going to be in front of goal. Get bodies and balls into the box and we’ll be ok. I have a hunch that KM might revert to Bonne & Norwood after all. We all want to Bonne to strike gold again.

    Most will be happy with a draw, but my head says we'll fall short and lose by a goal. A win would be just the play off ticket.

    Tbh i dont think we are quite good enough to be one of the top 4 teams.

    So lets not raise our hopes too high. If we dont make it, next year will be different and I'm confident that we'll be in the play'offs all season and maybe better.

    COYB!!

    4-1 Town, not my usual bold prediction as MK are pretty decent!

    Reckon McK is looking at quick counter attacks today, using Jackson to run the channels and split the defenders for others to use the space he creates.

    Well I can already see that we will need to take care of the ball when it's in our possession, we've barely touched it yet as MK are passing it around quickly and we are in defence mode

    Hope the players are fit, we're chasing the ball a lot in the opening minutes.

    MKD passing it around comfortably, and Bakinson first pass to their player!

    Celina has given the ball away cheaply a couple of times too. We must keep it better when we have it otherwise we'll tire quickly trying to close down all game

    Morsy is making things happen, two brilliant drives forward from our captain

    It was all MK for the first 20 minutes but we're getting a grip on the match now and our attacks have actually looked more dangerous.
