S41NTS Posted 9 February, 2010 Share Posted 9 February, 2010 I've been looking forward to this week for ages. We've got the big match tonight with a Wembley match and trophy at stake and another big match (on my birthday ) on saturday. I now have full on man flu. Arse.

CWD Posted 9 February, 2010 Share Posted 9 February, 2010 On my way back from uni now, cannot wait for this one. I havent been this excited about a week of football since the play offs. (hope this ends a little better than that did) Also just wondering, is Papa the current highest scorer in the competition? i cant find it anywhere. COYR lets do this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikec Posted 9 February, 2010 Share Posted 9 February, 2010 I know it's bad, but I've put a tenner on MK Dons to win tonight, mainly beacuse: a) I never win and b) It will take a tiny bit of the sting out of missing out on Wembley. Could be a win-win situation for you if MK Dons win 1-0 and Saints win the penalty shoot-out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not bad - it's a sensible insurance policy. In fact I've done the same myself. Though I'm not sure I can bring myself to insure against derby disaster by betting on Pompey for Sat...

Ken Tone Posted 9 February, 2010 Share Posted 9 February, 2010 Not curious at all, the game was originally on 16th at 7:45, then moved to 9th at 7pm "in case it was on tv" - which also doubled as a method of freeing up 16th for a rearranged match or FA Cup replay, then when Sky decided to show the North Area Final instead, they moved it back to the normal 7:45pm kickoff. I don't think tickets were available when the date was intended to be 16th, so the only tickets out there will have one of the two kick off times on the 9th on them depending on what the anticipated ko time was when they were issued. Mine's got 7pm on it as well. Yet weirdly the Leeds game is on TV and is also a 7.45 ko! Bit of a mess all round really. Didn't buy tickets when it was 7 because couldn't make it from work, and only realised too late that it had been moved again. Did the poor sod who'd booked hotel rooms etc for original date ever hear back from the club? Anyway, give them a shout from me. K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

disconnect Posted 9 February, 2010 Share Posted 9 February, 2010 Both teams have a fair few players out, but really we've got to go through now having done the hard part in the first leg, since then taking their best player, and them also having their top scorer injured...

stevegrant Posted 9 February, 2010 Share Posted 9 February, 2010 Both teams have a fair few players out They do, but we had the same players out for the first leg as well.

brianoneils slidingtackle Posted 9 February, 2010 Share Posted 9 February, 2010 Having read the OS news, I think that if you arnt wearing colours you should be able to claim that you are a MK Fan and buy a ticket for the away section. just act ignorant about football and you will be able to pass yourselve off as a true MK fan...

The9 Posted 9 February, 2010 Share Posted 9 February, 2010 Could be a win-win situation for you if MK Dons win 1-0 and Saints win the penalty shoot-out It doesn't have to be 1-0, if they win by any margin of one goal it would still go straight to penalties, there is no away goals rule.

Victor Posted 9 February, 2010 Share Posted 9 February, 2010 BBC website has the MK Dons assistant boss listing all their injured and cup tied players. Their top scorer - Jermaine Easter - is out and their Spurs loanee, Andris Townsend, is cup tied. They have 3 others definitely out with a further 5 rated doubtful. Worth listening to the clip of Robinson included in that article - he is seriously upset about the way Saints celebrated the win there, seriously upset that we have a squad that cost "£10 million pounds" (he obviously has inside information on all those 'undiscloseds') and seriously upset that we bought Puncheon. Seems a very annoyed little man (seem to remember he got a little annoyed in the league game at SMS!) and I reckon our players are in for a rough ride tonight. Also reckon most of their claimed 'injuries' will heal by tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
