Pratley a large improvement over Watson in the reverse fixture, although it's his job to keep up pressing high and I don't think he's quite been doing that towards the end of the half
We played well & had the better of the first 20 mins. Then we scored & basically sat back and let them have the ball. Should have really gone for it & got a 2nd & a 3rd
Keep this the same, just more intensity in closing down and we’ll be fine. Positive changes or like for like replacements would be nice. Nothing negative, let oratory do the dirty work until his legs are gone
Good to see us doing to MK Dons what so many teams do to us - hustling them and not giving them a moment to settle. Much different to the game at the Valley when we stood and watched them play pretty football. Just hope we can keep that hustling up for another 45 minutes.
Need a second goal otherwise I fear this is going to be a long second half.
Will be interesting to see how Chucks plays against his old team.
Chuks and Ronnie might well come on around 70 mins and capitalise on a tiring and stretched MK defence.
Just hope if they do they can replicate the work that we're seeing from Stockley and Washington - Felt that was one of the problems last week as the pressure got lifted on the Peterborough CBs meaning they had more time to pick the right pass
So far so good. Stockley brings a lot to the table, good hold up play, a real presence and knows how to win a free kick. Pratley doing a good job of marking Fraser out of the game.
Hopefully no rash changes from Bowyer and we can get the 3 points.

We are letting them have thr ball...regardless of the score...they were always going to try pressure more after we scored. So don't think we "sat back" as such.
Do think we should get on thr front foot and try get an early second half goal.
#MKDons trail to Liam Millar’s goal but certainly grew into this game as the half wore on.
Joe Mason going close to an equaliser with a glancing header against the post.

It really is a case of try and get our early press back. Don't invite them onto us at 1-0. How many times have we done this over the last year - it doesn't work! Try and score another - it's not rocket science.
Decent, but we need to start the 2nd half on the front foot. Stockley might have, 60 minutes in his legs. Chuck's and Ronnie to batter the MK defence in last 30 helped by lively Liam.

Hope it doesn't come back to bite us.
Just hope we don’t sit deep and invite them on too much 2nd half
chirst you watch this to get away from that
