The Howfen Ultras & the LL Legend are giving this a miss.

TBH probably wouldn't bother if it was on a Saturday.

Up there with Wycombe & Horwich RMI CC as being the shittest of away trips....

Not driving me

On the beer 

Thomason deserves his place. But Kachunga. Does he offer more than Bakayoko.

No, or Afolayan.

Hope he proves us wrong.

Not totally sure what Bakayoko has offered for much of the season so far, in fairness. 

1-2 for me, Charles and Lee. Got a good feeling about tonight.

Baffling team selection

Or Dapo? Its a no from me.

If Afolayan was in for Katchunga and Morley instead of Thommo i'd be happier.

Ah well, in Evatt we trust an' all that.

PS, It's got to be the strongest bench we've had for a few years, apart from having no sub keeper obvs.

Only if youre very easily baffled

Give it a rest

Kachunga has delivered more recently than Dapo. 

Dapo is technically the better player but his output hasn't warranted a place in the 1st 11.

I'd be lieing if I said I like that line up for MK Dons away.  It feels a bit like we have a superb squad of decent players in every position but it doesn't count for a lot if many of them aren't playing much.

Ain't got no issue with Thomason (Great passer, fantastic engine & a combative battler). Morley is one of our better players but struggled massively last season at MK eventually being hauled off. Would hope to have seen Dempsey build off of that fantastic Wycombe performance but can't argue with a fully fit, in form Lee. No issues with Baka being dropped, much better off the bench but would much rather see us try get our POTS from last season firing again but Evatt has a thing for Kachunga's "pressing" so hopefully it works out perfectly.

I used to love that, but if you're referring to home games I'd be surprised if we've ever heard it pre-match at Reebok.  Impossible with the cacophany of noise from the speakers.  Sounds odd but I always feel a bit sorry for away fans trying to generate some atmosphere, getting drowned out not by home fans singing but by the "music".  I'm sure it seems louder here than at most away grounds.

I reckon he does, particularly away from home 

Baka off the bench if we're piling it forward late on

Just observations, please note these are not criticisms, I rate all the players picked tonight (except Kachunga!).  But Lee hasn't been in great form away has he?  I'll be skipping if he has a great game tonight, I love the guy.  Jury out on Tomo being combative, he gives away too many free kicks for me and is a yellow waiting to happen - but he's good in possession, very good passing (but less of a goal threat than a few that are on the bench, arguably).  Let's see anyway, hopefully a load of 8 out of 10 performances and no sendings off!

If ever a stadium is to big for its support, this is it.

3 nil Bolton tonight.

Yes, Lee has been in good form away from home.

You obviously didn’t go to Plymouth.

Fwiw, my best team would include dapo and morley but if evatt thinks this is the best for tonight, its good enough for me

Baffled...not in the least

do their fans think it's suspended?
