MK Dons not looking like a team rooted to the bottom of the table. How the hell do these bottom teams lift their gsmd do much when they play us.

We’re doing well not to be behind Marko.

This is more like it, the goal has given us a huge uplift. Interestingly we’re not playing our normal possession game with much more variation in our play.

We all know Barnsley are decent, but Derby are chucking it.

Pre-planned due to the pitch do you think?

I would think that’s highly likely Mark given the recent comments from other managers visiting the MK Stadium including the Lionesses last Thursday.

You’re right there Marko, I think he’s their Top Scorer this season.

Bit of an iffy start with our shaky defence as usual but much more on it since we scored and had a few efforts. We need more tempo to our game as very pedestrian at times. I think Humphreys and Burns are struggling a bit and we need to get Broadhead into the game more. Super strike from Morsy, shows what you can achieve when you are more direct and actually have a shot. Burgess the pick of the defence. Shout out to the Ref, she's done ok so far and way better than most weeks.

Nathan Broadhead really should have scored our second on 46 mins. I’m sure he’ll be very disappointed.

As for the referee I’m surprised she isn’t used by the EFL every weekend. As you say she’s doing a good job, keeping up with play and consistent with her decisions. She’s certainty not making any of the plethora of mistakes we get used to watching so often at this level.

Apart from one dropped catch Walton has had his best game for some time.
