Sigh, Our problem in a nutshell is that we turn victories into draws and draws into defeat.

First things first, their ground is surreal and I mean that in a bad way. The seats are massive and too far apart. It doesn't feel like a football stadium.

I thought we were much the better team in the first half. It was one of those matches that seemed there for the taking, MK Dons were restricted to long shots and we were causing them more problems in the final third although we lacked the cutting edge. We weren't creating loads of chances but we were creating more and betters ones than they were. The Lange scored with a cool Porteresc finish. Then while I'm celebrating they scored straight away. They were then on top and ALB made a good save.

In the second half we were on top until the latter stages. The match looked destined to be a draw as we offered little the the final third. They were dirty bar stewards as well and how Lewington didn't get booked I do not know. Then we collapsed, Lewington had a cross that seemed to go in (will have to see the replay), they scored soon after and we lost 3-1 and went home empty handed. I think the substitutions disrupted our play but I think it's harsh to blame Turner, Rowell may have been injured and Foley despite playing well was beginning to get knocked around a lot. He did his best on the limited resources we have.

A few positives: Rowell looked good, Lange showed signs of class but he is lacking in fitness but it will come and Sweeney is becoming an unsung hero and the peformance was a major improvement compared to last Saturday.

Yes we could have done with our top scorer Joel Porter playing, we could have done with our most valuable player James Brown playing, we could have done with Jones playing and Jamie McCunnie might have been useful to have available.

We could have done without two of our better players Robson and Clark being suspended.

thought so because i was a voulenteer to help with the pitch todays and y'day . today your manager did seem like he didnt want to play it so we wanderd if there was a few key players out and to be fair to him fairplay but he was a t0$$er in the way he did it! screwing at a lady that workerd for the club saying that we were wasting there time! this was at 11-ish before the reffree even had entered the ground!

Chris Turner is a lovely man. I refuse to accept that he was rude in any way. He has been nothing but nice to all football fans in my experience.

And I can assure you that Turner would not have wanted to take his team to Milton Keynes on a tuesday night.

rowell had a good game today his passing was particularly good i don't think anyone had a bad game today even alb made some saves rune looks like a great player and did most of the attacking today i thought we deserved a point and the 3-1 scoreline didn't tell the full story :grin:

No we don't - one point from every game will be more than enough.

Once again all the goals were the fault of the full backs.

We've gone away from home again, not been troubled all match and still shipped 3 goals.

Considering the team we had out we did well for the majority but something needs to be sorted in the back 5 desperately.

Rowell was excellent, looked very tidy. Wasn't that fussed on Lange and Henderson was cr*p.

And let in 2 very late goals yet again, that also is a major concern.

To paraphrase: "Dons had six players at least as good as Hartlepool's best player, and that player was Humphreys. Dons fully deserved their win having been the better side throughout and keeping Pools pegged in their own half for long spells. Nobody played worse than Jonny Rowell"


I passionately hate that football club.

THE BETTER TEAM THROUGH F*CKING OUT???

PEGGED IN OUR OWN F*CKING HALF???

NO-ONE WORSE THAN JONNY F*CKING ROWELL???

Pack of bounders.

that club has always had a minister for propoganda - they tell the idiots who watch them what the game was like through their twisted perception - and everyone must shut out the reality of what actually happened.

Football a game of opinions

In my report I say we werent under what I called pressure , they may have had possession, but I believed we were coping.

Rowell a 6 is a joke, even Foley a 6 is a joke and you know I dont really rate him. Both classed as worse players on the pitch, I dont think so. I definetely watched a different game.

In that report Lewington gets a 9, Gerba gets an 8 yet the match sponsors voted Gerba their man of the match. Once more opinions differ.

To be fair the Mad sites are a load of bollocks.

And their match previews are shite.

In fact, their next preview will read almost exactly the same as this

"Hartlepool have been none too clever at home and the madmen cannot see this improving. Away win."

Apart from two tap in's that Gerba was laughably shite, a big fat diving teletubby of a player.

Come on, what are Mk Dons fans going to know about football? Most of the crowd are kids and families. The way they all clap and sign along to other clubs songs in unison cringe worthy. The most soulless club I've ever visited.

The facilities at the stadium are excellent though, I mean a padded seat for £16.60!!

Sorry to hack you off with my first post and all, but you created nothing yesterday. A couple of weak shots straight at Gueret and a Navarro headed back-pass that my granny could have intercepted and put away.

You showed an awful lot of character at your place earlier in the season, but looked a shadow of that side yesterday (I know you had injuries, etc). Don't get me wrong. We were poor ourselves, but managed to break up your play on the edge of our area with ease and definitely created the better chances.

You won't go down. Crewe, Hereford, Cheltenham and several others are worse than you.

Regarding match sponsors: They call it wrong every week. Score more goals than anybody else and you'll win it! Best player on the park yesterday was Jude Stirling and nobody, anywhere, as given the poor sod a mention.

Chadwick was your best player, followed by Jemal Johnson and Lewington
just checked your website and if Stirling was your number 2, he was very , very poor IMHO

Your keeper is almost as big a joke as ours

As for chances, I thought they were pretty even

Gueret has been outstanding since he joined us at the start of last season, and was probably worth 25 points on his own in our Championship season last term.

I thought his only fault yesterday was, as always, his kicking. Now, if you'd have seen him at Peterborough the other week...

MK Dons did nothing today and yet still scored 3, says it all really. They clearly had a bad day as I don't even remember them having a shot before the equaliser. They simply had more quality.

At 1-1, Rowell (who was class all game, as was Lange IMO) put Henderson through but his control was gash and instead of putting a shot on goal from about 8 yards, the move fizzled out. That said, no one truely expected to pick up points from the game and so we got what we expected.

I don't think we'll go down but I think that Nardiello is key and we need him back and banging in the goals starting saturday. We just can't afford to keep dropping points at home.

Oh and I still fancy us to beat Leicester on tuesday :grin: Well i'll be backing us anyway.

About as accurate as I've read anywhere, Chessington.

Don't write off the chance of points against Leicester. Haven't played well in weeks and have finally started to ship a few points.
