    Totally agree the laying of the new pitch has been a disaster can we get compensated.

    For me, the pitch is a major issue and partly the reason we played so well at BL was just that the pitch. I mentioned it before but at MKM, when a player is running. with the ball he's literally dragging it along, its not rolling in front of him. The defence, by the time the second half comes are playing in an area so cut up (which is why I cannot understand why we dont kick toward that end under those circumstances). In short how can a quick team, and I believe we are now with Joseph, Kamara and Geldhart attack well or defend well on a **** heap. And thats before February 15th...

    I think it was some of the travellers from 'Ull Fair that laid the pitch on the cheap. Club left 'em to it overnight and found they'd laid it upside down and had to paint it green.

    The thing about the **** pitch and it is, other teams adapt, and if anyone should be 'used' to it, this should be us.
    However someone needs to get back to whoever laid it and check the 'warranty', even get those guys we fired with their pitchforks... ;)

    Millwall win, don't want any of the teams below us picking up points. :emoticon-0138-think


    The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.

    I know what you're saying but I thought Millwall looked that poor when we played them i expect them to be in a relegation scrap to the end of the season

    True
    But portsmouth only win at home
    So if they dont win tonight

    That decreases their chance of overtaking us

    If in doubt, go for a draw.

    One point dropped over all.

    If our home form was even 21st best in the league instead of 24th
    We could have 8 more points
    And a late play off charge

    Thats pure testament to the kc home curse

    Which one is better for us, a draw or Milwall win? In the end draw provides 2 points, instead of 3, meanwhile Milwall win puts Portsmouth behind.

    Just had a look. More atmosphere than at the MKM when we are losing.

    Good result for us that... looking at weekend fixtures theres a chance to pull further away too if we take care of business.

    Got to love Millwall! OG against us and then go and beat Luton and Portsmouth back to back!

    Which typically means we won't. We never do. It was the same last season whenever we looked to be cementing top 6 we'd drop a game and then go on another good run. It seems our lot to make it tough on ourselves until the final game.
