We ran out of ideas and ran into the MK Dons players on a number of occasions. The standings in the league of both teams were a true reflection today.

A recurrent comment whenever Labs doesn’t play.

Agree. I was also there, thought Bakinson was crap to be honest... good season up until Christmas but since then he’s taken a step backwards; I certainly wouldn’t have him in my starting 11 next week. Dolan wasn’t much better., perhaps a Sheehan/Kennedy partnership is worth trying. But certainly Shows how much we miss Labadie.

For the last couple of seasons we have lacked a playmaker in midfield, we’re good upfront and in defence but no one other than labadie has been the play maker for back to front.

I think the playoffs are too optimistic, we’ve had a good run in the FA Cup but we are not consistent enough to make league one. Top 10 would be realistic. If we can keep hold of most of our players and scout for a decent playmaker or two in the summer I think we can push on and try for the play offs next season.

Every time Bakinson plays it's like playing with 10 men. Combined with Dolan in midfield who is too slow is a bad combination.

I can only suspect that there must be a penalty clause in the loan agreement if Bakinson doesn’t get a minimum number of minutes, as right now he doesn’t warrant his place in the Team.

If pigs could fly the price of bacon would go up, and then the pig farmers would be more than happy.

Good Morning!

If I was a pig farmer and my pigs kept flying off, I wouldn’t be too happy.........

Hence I started the sentence with Big if, no need for the cobblers.
