Saturday is going to be a game of the two best teams in the division at present,MK have been the side that has impressed me so far. I think this would send a huge message to the rest we are the ones to beat. To me this is a game i would love three points, and a convincing win. Cant wait for the game on Saturday should be a cracker. I also believe Agard will be a better player than Baldock and will go on to better things than him. Exactly the same as Bolasie and Adomah,I said Bolasie would be a better player than Adomah and would go on to better things. Enjoy Agard and his goals guys, cus he won't be here forever. Bring on Saturday.
After a lifetime of watching City underperforming and my natural pessimistic nature, is this the weekend when events will change me from a grumpy, miserable old bastard into a positive thinking happy bunny? Bristol Rugby to return to top spot by crushing the Cockney Jocks followed by City stretching their lead in League one by another three points! Or is it a visit to the doctors for some positivity pills?
Im not getting all negative but there is a point where everything ends, we are top but have shown some glaring weaknesses, last week should have been 7 points ahead, MKD have a game in hand Ok we have the points, but the wrong results could see us just 5 points from being outside top 6! We cannot afford to LOSE but will at some point! a draw is a consolation, a win is the start for the next 9 -10 games a quite hard time when we are up against fellow contenders..and some of those have easy rides!
M K D ons record to date played Crewe ( 24th ) H OME W in.... 6 goals Barnsley ( 19th ) A way W in....5 goals Crawley ( 18th ) H W ..............2 goals Gills ( 11th )H W....................4 goals Bradford ( 6th ) H ome Lost.....1 goal Coventry (11th ) H draw...........0 Chstrfld ( 5th ) A Win..............1 goal Peterbro (3rd ) A Lost.............2 goals teams in top 12 = 7 points from 15 teams in bottom 7 = 9 points from 9 THEY INVARIABLY SCORE....
MK Dons have some serious firepower but they also concede. There should be goals on Saturday, so lets just hope we score more than them !
Saturday will certainly be a litmus test for how far we've come. MKD are scoring goals for fun but as pointed out, they concede. Saturday showed that we can also be placed in that same category. We need a big, tight performance from the defence and then the rest will fall into place. All is not lost if the result doesn't go our way but we have to hope that when the bubble bursts, we can recover and go on another run.
we conceded almost half of our goals against on Saturday ! 3 of the 7 take away the 6 v crewe and the 5 v Barnsley and they have 10 goals against the 6 games = 1.67 per game take away the 3 v PV and 3 V Donny and we have 1.72 so goal wise as strong as us? as for conceding city .8 MKD 1.4 SO LETS ALL WISH FOR A 2-1 WIN
Our defence scares the hell out of me but if we come out of this game with 3 points it will send a message to the rest of the division, saying bring us your best and we will outperform you. Solidify our back line and dominate midfield should be our motto and the world is our oyster. Can't wait!
