Knowing MKD, we will somehow win the second leg.

Knowing MKD, we will then lose the final. :roll:

Seriously, do we have the worst record of ANY club in play-offs? If so, can only be a mentality thing - we are obviously good enough to be there each time on playing merit. Folk on here lambasting MW, but Ince and KR were no better.

Don’t you fucking dare criticise Ince. He never once lost a play-off campaign with us. Get your facts straight.

Mark my words, it will go the same way as Wycombe.

We play much better, win the match but come up short overall because the opposition know how to "park the bus".

And the have the summer to consider why we play like that in some matches

Sorry pal...I just had a wrong vision of the Shrewsbury play-off :lol:

Oh, and there is a course starting at MK College next week on "Articulation without swearing" - followed up by "Anger Management for Idiots" :lol:

The tie is over. We know that, the players know that and Crawley know that.

We won't see enough of the ball to score 3 goals. Crawley are one of the few teams that dominated us at StadMK and we were actually very fortunate to pick up the 3 points that day. We aint winning on Saturday, let alone by 3 goals.

The club also ruined any chance of a decent crowd on Saturday. I can't even begin to imagine how many people are going to be refunding their tickets. So much for blocks being sold out, they'll all be available again by Friday.

Crawley aren't like Wycombe from that season. Wycombe had 3 massive head it and kick it centrebacks and could just put men behind the ball. Crawley do not have the same kind of defenders and I hope MW goes 4atb and throws everything he has against them for 90 minutes. If we get an early goal this tie is still very much alive as Crawley will likely sit back and try to conserve what they have and I think with a little luck 3 goals is possible.
On the other hand it is obviously more likely that we won't make it through but I would say we have a much better chance than Crewe do.
