Brum thought ball was gonna be thrown back to them but some sneaky bastard went on and scored. That took it to extra time. Then once it went to ET Yeovil allowed a goal to be scored
From what I can gather it was one of those where the brummies have put the ball out so someone could get treatment, expected Yeovil to throw the ball to them and they didn't and scored from the throw. Then the Yeovil manager only let them score after it went to extra time.
I as going to go with about 15 mins left but luckily Mavrias and Whickam turned the game, Johnsons goal was I reckon the best ever scored at the SOL, he ran from inside our half and did a Bent !, Ji is poor and there was no marking on any M K dons player, but what a cup tie. Mags at home in the 3rd round please and bring Joe with them !.
Hang on lads. Gary Bennett was absolutely scathing about the performance, the players and the manager up to 70 mins. We were not just getting beaten we were getting slaughtered and the incredible turnaround cannot mask the performance. I bet PDC himself is scathing of the game and will be as angry as he is relieved. He will have known how this would have put him under pressure and that's all I was asking? I am not having a go at PDC but merely stating fact. Defeat at home to lower league opposition would have been massively damaging to the managers project and to deny that is pure ignorance. We have a very difficult 8 or 9 games to come and humiliating defeat at home to MK Dons could have meant lots of pressure on the players and the manager. I heard the crowd chanting and booing and could sense the crowds anger so don't have a pop at me for merely echoing that feeling and the words of Benno. Even he said that nothing much had changed from last year and said PDC will come under the media spotlight. Brilliant 16 minute turnaround it was and relief for all but lets not pretend that this could have been a pivotal moment for the wrong reasons as much as it may well be one for the good. Oh and the MoN jibes can only be made by simple minded ****wits who neither know me or understand me. It seems healthy debate is still as dead on this message board as ever it was? The slightest step away from total arse licking is seen as traitorous behavior? Its as embarrassing as the performance was tonight lads, it really is.
I wasn't there, stuck at work checking updates and feeling the rage rise! Saw the second goal and thought **** it! By the time. Last update 75 mins in. Got my stuff, left work, got in the car and put the radio on and we were winning!!! So to those who went a stayed what changed the game? Who came on and looked good? Was it the dons making subs? Change of tactics, fitness? Or just a case of a goal gave us belief and made them nervy?
The only pivotal moment that I'm able to see is tremendous fighting spirit to come from 0-2 behind under the weight of expectation and a club that is in the hat for the next round. The facts are that we won the game, the hard way, and saw a team that will fight to the bitter end. That is something we have rarely seen since the days of Peter Reid and long may it continue. Perhaps the turnaround is more important than the performance? We are a club trying to find our feet, moments like these will inspire the performances of the future.
The goal gave us a lift mate, wickhams second was a big deflection. But to be fair to the dons they played really well up until we scored.
Well joeisonfire is claiming the assist mate by leaving early Whatever it was it worked we just need to remember how it worked.
Don't think I've seen you say a good word about Paulo, and you were far to quick to jump on the media band wagon!!!! Bad crack if you ask me and I expected more from you.
Anyone know if match of the day is on tonight please, my programme info on virgin needs updating & it takes ages.
Did anyone take 51/1 on us at 76 mins? I looked long and hard at it but never took it. Would have been a nice touch.
Di canio's after match comments could be entertaining! Not sure he will have finished in the dressing room until around midnight! Lol.
