MK Dons

[Longtime Blade]

My Donny Rovers supporting pal predicted that MKD would trounce Rovers last Saturday - but they didn't; the score was

0-0. So I wrote to him for his comments which included the following:

"MK Dons are a fast running side who use the long ball very effectively."

"Butler was MOM. He organised our defence very well."

 

[IOM Blade]

Hope we stuff em and get Citeh or Chelsea at the Lane in the quarters.

Think Clough will shuffle the pack tho and we'll lose 2-0. Ever the optimist.

 

[Gavlar]

I just hope no one gets injured and the lads enjoy it!

"Butler was MOM. He organised our defence very well."

Just for balance - from a premiership scout at the game. Butler was absolutely awful first half. Improved minimally in second.

We're gonna win. I have confidence in Clough re Cup games.

We had 2 0-0 in our last 2 away games but they parked the bus, we do better against teams that try to play, at least it won't be 0-0 tonight.
Whoever goes through its a good advert for league 1.
Good luck in the competition if you do beat us .

From one of my drivers ,a season ticket holder ,he wasn't bad but not fit to lace Rob Jones boots.

 

[zablade]

Not that fussed how we do in this or the JPT or The FA Cup TBH this season, obviously I hope we win every game we play but I won't lose any sleep if we go out tonight as long as its not a Hammerimg.

Promotion really is the one and only comcern for me this season.

 

[Nade]

Anyone know if this is online anywhere?

 

[blade.i.am]

Wish it were on line, not in UK to listen on RS. Of course the view over Pollenca Bay from our hotel and the large, cheap bottle of San Miguel next to me do offer some compensation. Best I can manage is updates on BBC on my tablet. Kick off 8.45 local time doesn't help will probably be snoring for England by the time 0penalty shoot out starts.

Anyone but a grunter

 

[Newbury Blade]

40 minutes, one attempt on goal each, one shot on target (MK Dons), no shot on target (Blades).
And to think I was disappointed when I had to work (in London, not far from game) and couldn't go.

[Newbury Blade]

Since I don't have to watch it, please can we have more of the same in the second half ... and of course the Blades to win the shootout.

The most entertainment listeners of Radio Sheff have had is Keith Edwards nearly swearing.

To be fair, I can see your point

 

[Hodgyman]

I am really fed up with Keith Edwards on Radio Chuff. Instead of hearing commentary of what is (or isn't) happening on the pitch we hear the same old moans from Keith about what should be happening in the match today or last week or last season. Please keep the "expert summary" to breaks in play, or half time. Let the commentator tell us, who can't be there to see it ourselves, what is happening!

I thought Keith was one of our best ever strikers with an impressive goals tally to his name but if he is so good and respected as an expert now why is he driving lorries for a living instead of coaching?

 

[metalblade]

Actually Edwards is spot on we have one go at goal because we are forced to attack and we equalise, this is why we will never be promoted with negative Nigel in charge ........ fucking one up front in this league is a load of bollocks.

 

[metalblade]

Higdon saves the day 1-2

 

[Hodgyman]

You might be right MB but i wish that he would keep his comments to breaks in play (or after we have just scored our second )

 

[yuley82]

We'll prob get f-ing Bournemouth away now.

 

[metalblade]

It is so frustrating to have all the play yet again but have to chase the game in the last 10 minutes, we are better than that if we are a bit more adventurous in attack

 

[Highbury_Blade]

I am going to be properly fucked off if the QF game is on the 16th December. Got gig tickets for that night.
