What's embarrassing about taking 250 plus to a midweek 450 mile round trip match that's shown live on TV ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaticsPete Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 I watched MK Dons at Hyde on tv , last season I think. What impressed me was the way MK went at them right from the start. None of the “let’s keep it tight to begin with , absorb their early enthusiasm and pressure “. MK pressed and attacked and took control. After that the result was never in doubt. Tactics for Monday? Go at them right from the start , be confident and assertive, and boss the match. Might not make a tv fairy tale story but sod that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not surprising in that it’s an away game on a Monday evening, a 450+ miles round trip, coming on the back of three away league games on the bounce in which we picked up a single point. Oh and it’s live on television too. I’d say that a potential 300 plus following is far from embarrassing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus whilst it is technically possible to get back to Manchester via public transport after the game, it wouldn't take much for it to be impossible.

If this game had been on the Saturday or Sunday afternoon the tickets would have gone in a couple of days, I tip my hat to those that are traveling from up here.

I'm just bloody seething I can't get BT Sport without forking out another £27.99 on top of my Sky subscription. Looks like I'm going to Bath to my mate's if the step son and girlfriend have gone back to Wales early enough. (No, it's fine, kids.

yarddog73 Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Prices for us on Monday night are insanely good given our record under floodlights particularly against supposed inferior opposition, we are playing a team low on confidence who've drawn one and lost four of their last five outings. 8/11 win 9/5 win H/T and F/T Clean sheet 6/4 To score 1/6 To score 2 or more is 4/5 Now I don't advocate gambling it's just a hobby of mine but these prices are ridiculous all things considered, I understand that they will be up for it but prices like these should pay for everyone's Christmas.

Might not make a tv fairy tale story but sod that. Just a shame we have a manager with the opposite outlook to that. His first comment after Tuesday night when asked “how did we not win that?” was “I’m delighted with the clean sheet” If Bunn gets the selection & tactics wrong (as he has in many games this season, particularly 1st halves) and invites them on to us then we may be in trouble. This “should” be an easy 3-0 win tho if treated correctly. Over to you Frankie! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think he's reffed us yet this season, but reffed our 1-0 home win over MK Dons in Feb 18, and the 1-0 away defeat to Shrewsbury in Jan 18. Hampton are calling this the biggest night in the club's history: http://www.hamptonfc.net/news/preview-beavers-set-for-biggest-night-in-club-hist-2365778.html Oh great...so this is the clown that couldn’t spot the most blatant penalty and red card on Davies at Shrewsbury.
