34C pitch side on Saturday.... 15:13 - Aug 10 with 695 views | unstableblue | ... now that is hot Shame as chance will make the game a lottery.. but MK will also have to endure it Chance of an Easterly breeze up the Orwell which may help. Lots of drinks breaks. Hopefully there will be exhaustion for us to bring on an attacking 3 change again - albeit JJ, Jackson, and Aluko's confidence will be on the floor after poor performances from all 3 last night | |

Trouble is MK aren't a bad side with the ball either and it'll be hard to press in those conditions. Probably would've been a very a good day for us to play a lesser side. | |

Its two sides coming together that normally dominate possession and the ball... so may be a tad cagey They showed us a lot of respect at their place and we dominated... but had a our classic issue of not being able to break them down. I think Harness and Chaplin are going to be key on Saturday... I just hope Burns can find his form. A goal from Ladapo and a win and we are in dreamland... but still think the result is a lottery in those conditions.. did we have a pre-season Friendly in such heat????? | |

Chaplin is due a goal, I can see him scoring Saturday. I think there will be a little early season pressure on MK Dons given the start they've made. If we can get them on the back foot and get a lead I wouldn't fancy chasing a game in those conditions. Feel like we'll say this every game but a big 3 points on offer, not just to consolidate our good start but also a 7 point gap to MK, albeit early in the season is a nice platform. That's ahead of a very winnable one Tuesday night away to Burton. | |

And someone from a header. We're still allowed to score from headers aren't we? | |

Yup front three need to go at them early… knowing they’ll only be playing 60-70mins MK will have used cup game as a platform to get winning… but league is a different beast to Sutton Utd | |
