Rak Saki is an enigma for me. Why does he have to always be on the right and cut inside? It's so predictable. Also his crosses are not dangerous enough. Get him down the left, onto the byline and putting in decent crosses for Leaburn to get some power in a header.1 -

But I couldn't understand why Robbo was raving about Morgan.
He ran around a lot, but still gave the ball away, didn't follow his man enough and couldn't keep a corner kick on the pitch etc.3 -
Promised myself I wouldn't be getting up at 4.30am to watch this but...
Enjoyed the commitment and energy. Thought Albie deserved man of the match. He was involved in everything all over the pitch. Great goal for Payne, happy for him. Pleased after the disappointing weekend result. Onwards to Saturday.6 -

Absolutely shocking game of football and I am usually rose tinted. MK were awful, we were marginally better.Fair play to you hardy lot travelling back down to SE London after watching that dross!
It must be the depressing stadium because I thought we played some decent passing football and bounced back well after the tennis bagel on Saturday.
Maybe it easily to watch sitting indoors in the warm but our passing was much better even if we couldn't find the killer pass more than once tonight.
We are a mid table team and that was a good 3 points.4 -
Not a classic, but a well ground out away win. I expected more from MKD as they've been on a good run.
Payne was a real threat, Albie was very good, Thomas and Hector very solid.
Rak-Sakyi was off his game tonight, at this stage of his career he's still inconsistent.
Strange club and ground. Premier League facilities, L2 crowds.1 -

Really like him and apart from Ipswich we’ve been very decent and play with purpose.
Get the takeover done, give him some money and the players he wants this summer and we’ll defo have a shot next season.
Holden with the right backing could be a great
Manager, we played well tonight in the second
Half, earned 3 points and a clean sheet and I
Am amazed we did not score more than one
Goal tonight 👍👍

RC_CAFC said:I suspect the lack of atmosphere and end of a disappointing season is contributing to the drab reviews of those that were there. Can imagine that first half being very dull if you had travelled and were sitting in a cold empty stadium.
From my warm armchair, it seemed to be a positive away performance where we were clearly the better side with the better players. Thought TT and Hector were excellent at the back and Dobson really grew into the game.
3 points from those two games isnt a bad return, just a shame Saturday was so embarrassingly terrible.
Really shows the gulf in class between the top and the bottom of this league.3 -
Credit to Holden for getting a performance out of that shower after Saturday - now watch them all start thinking about being on the beach against Morecambe.2

I thought Fraser was unbelievably wasteful for a lot of the night , he’s getting on my tits4 -

Just got home, not a brilliant game of football and what a soulless club that is. We picked up second half. Certainly wasn’t a classic but enjoyed the win after experiencing the Ipswich game.2

Thomas out of contract but wants to stay according to the SLP. Bang average.
Egbo looks decent but we’ve seen little of him, Clare is an Albie Morgan in defence.
Innis is a bloody liability with a combination of injuries and red cards.
Put simply we have no defence.

I couldn't understand half of what Robinson was going on about.3

Never see the game well pleased we got the win mostly for our traveling fans well done to the team & all who traveled

Seems like Payne and Morgan played well tonight, but I do hope it doesn't prolong the agony.
If we are to challenge next season we need better consistency and they need to move on.3 -
A meaningless win, but a win none the less.0

Generally thought we played well against an MKD team who were a lot worse than I expected. After last Saturdays nightmare, it was a good bounce back. After my rage on Saturday night, it's tempting to say we should sign that team up for next year, but as I haven't been drinking, let's be honest. It was a good win away for an average mid table side.
Sess and JRS looked good. Fraser I thought looked slow and clumsy and frankly I would expect much better from a player like him. But we applied ourselves well, which is a lot after Saturday. Our future book about the epic battle for 10th spot with Shrewsbury may still have a few pages to be written.

Overall a good performance, Albie, hector and Payne all played very well.
Really enjoyed Robinson commentating, surprisingly. He seems a good guy who loved his time here.10 -
My seat in the stadium was very comfortable and I could have dozed off a couple of times. I don't think we were great but we were sufficiently better than them.0

LB - Sess, Thomas :The worry for me is that the likes of Morgan and Thomas and maybe even Inniss are all going to get offered new deals. We’ll then get ‘I don’t mind that they’ve had their contracts renewed, as long as they’re back up’. But they won’t be7 -
Disapointing. I hope any members of the our squad associated with MKD are ok?3

Well done for all of you who went, and thanks for sharing your thoughts
