    Just seen the side anybody think we are on sticky wicket today.

    six subs only no jet over smith,says it all regards jet.

    Think we may be turned over today,hope not just a feeling though.

    Dominated first half, should've been at least 3 up at half time. Second half was poor we went from dominating to clinging on to 3 points. WE CAN NOT SIT BACK AND DEFEND IN 3-6-1 OR 3-5-2 we allowed them too much time and space to continually attack. Had we not won I would've booed cotterill and the team off for the second half performance.

    However the first half ATTACKING 3-5-2 ( I think) we were promising and played exceptionally well bar the penalty and surreal misses.

    Gotta say if we had played a top eight side today we would have been blown away,that performance was shocking.

    Matt Smith i would send back ,if he did not bury that header in the net the crowd were ready to lynch him.Defiantly not the answer,and nowhere near wilbs in class.

    That side will not stay top, if we do not bring quality in next month,we look a million miles away from the side of a month ago.

    Sorry SC listened to your comments on Radio,i have to disagree,we should be beating sides like Yeovil and Crewe.

    The dons went away to county and went home with three points.

    Swindon went to Walsall and took three points home.

    Both sides head and shoulders above the two sides we have just played.

    You need two quality strikers and another general to fill Elliotts boots when he cannot play.

    I think we fans should prepare ourselves for the roller coaster that is the play-offs

    Thought Todd Kane done ok today in Elliott's role, not properly match fit but got around. Both Johnson and Cotterill said the wind was bad in the game. Yeovil against it first half looked ordinary and us against it second half. You've got to remember we've only got three sides at the moment and they mentioned the wind will play havoc this season.

    Anyway we WON and all I can see on here is negative ****e, I didn't enjoy the second half losing Agard to injury and then Smith running out of steam but history will show we won, we got the points so let's be positive.

    Should of been 4 up by HT, that's not even unrealistic to say, Agard free header, Matt Smiths two open goal misses and the penalty.

    We need to do pretty much anything to bring in Doyle or we will fall behind, I see Swindle are back to blowing teams away and MK but any team they play, we are definitely in a false position.

    There is a lot of should of and could ofs... We should of been 4-0 at HT. We could have won about 6or 7 nil today and we should of kept a clean sheet... BUT! as ROD said... We won, we got the 3 points, we're still top and this game is now over. We move on to Gillingham Sunday..... The top 4 in our league now is tight as f**! If we would have drew today we would of gone 4th! Madness..... I know it's obvious but we really need to get 1 over on every body but the only trouble with being at the top and battling it out, you know it's very likely the teams below us will win.



    Here's a fact though.... If we win every single game we win the league. IT CAN BE DONE! :rolleyes:

    We should stop swapping ends if the wind is causing problems.

    How on earth can we be in a false position, we are top on merit, the league table ain't just after the last ten games, it is after 22 & we deserve to be top!...you can't just discount the earlier games...some people make I laugh

    We are under pressure from the 3 sides immediately behind us.

    But we're on top of the pile

    Personally I think its exciting...

    'Thought Todd Kane done ok today in Elliott's role' - so did I.

    'I didn't enjoy the second half losing Agard to injury' - it was a blessing RODney.
    Missed a sitter 1st minute, missed a penalty as well and generally fu**ing useless.

    And how did Smith miss his chances.
    However I still have hope for Smith - Cotterill says he's still not fit and I'll stay with Cotterill's view.
    As for Agard.........

    Agard has lost it at present,and Smith is not good enough,the only striker good enough and consistent enough is willbs but he has missed some important goals lately.The season is takeing its toll on his 36 years.He needs quality to give him a hand.We have had a fantastic first half of the season,we need to keep it going for the second half.
    The club needs to make sure promotion is gained this year,two years is enough in this crap division.
