Just Back

Thought we were magnificent to a man yesterday in the face I'd adversity.

Loved Embekton pretending he hadn't noticed his number was up when being substituted. Stood there for a good 30 seconds facing the other way until the ref shouted him over... He knew full well he was being subbed 😂👍

Not sure if it has been mentioned but how did Lexington get away with that dive in the first half? Cringeworthy and embarrassing.

Re town nobody can argue with the team spirit that exists and to see players hugging each other at the end demonstrated the team ethic MJ has in place.

Quoted from Les Brechin

Was Ring injured yesterday or was he just "rested" from the squad?

I'm sure Jolley had said that he was to play Fox so that he could get the send off he deserved.

I'm sure Jolley had said that he was to play Fox so that he could get the send off he deserved.

Jolley said that it was the intention to ease Ring in to the team, but circumstances meant that he was forced to play him when not fit enough after Swedish break.
Having already played on Saturday and Tuesday a further game on Saturday was too much as Ring was exhausted.

Back to DOGSO debate, this rule was brought in after the cup final where a young Martin Allen was clear through on goal and was brought down from behind by a defender with no attempt to play the ball. It is meant to detere defenders from stopping players who are clean through on goal.

Yesterday the player did not get through but was fouled as he was about to shoot. Fouling a player as he is about to shoot is not DOGSO. If it was then you cannot block a shot and give away a foul without getting sent off.

Is there a more dislikeable footballer in the game than Dean Lewington, the cheating, Wimbledon scab? With John Terry now retired, I’m not sure there is.

Nice comment on the MK Dons forum :-

"Very Finally, I have to say the stewards at Grimsby are top notch, helpful, polite, amusing and are amongst the best I have seen this season...many clubs could do worse than come and watch them in action"

That was the view from where we were sat, that he was a cheating little turd.

Thought the goal came at the right time as the whinging person behind me was yelling "this is going nowhere" as it was crossed into the box and headed into the net. Shut him up for at least until the second half !! Think the sending off was dodgy until looked at the highlights when it could be seen that there was no cover near to be factored in. Still looking for their shot on target which the BBC put into the stats. Excellent team work by the 10 men on the field to get the three points.

C’mon guys! We can do better than this. 😄
He’s Swedish. Let’s think ABBA. They’ve got plenty of material to work with. There’s even one called “the winner takes it all”. It rhymes with ball and tall. And what about gimme gimme gimme Ohman after midnight...
I would like 10% of any royalties if you get a song writing deal. 😄😄😄

I was told that's too camp on here the other week. And I thought we'd gone all inclusive.
