Have faith lads. Tough draw but our form will be back by then. We will win its written in the stars. We have a very good team and are quite capable of beating anyone. They will be just as worried and will also think the fa gods are not smiling on them. Just which team would relish the thought of playing us?

The Gods of Football toy with us again.

They tantalise us, dangling the prospect of what might be, only to snatch it away.

We really do have the sh*tt*est FA Cup luck in the country.

To be honest we have had some very friendly ties since 97 and we've blown so many

MK and Bristol City away. the 2 worst we could have had.




Maybe, just maybe, they might want to concentrate on the league position, and rest 1 or 2 key players.




Otherwise its a rubbish awayday.

They caught us short when we unluckily lost to them. This is a great chance for revenge. We are one of the best footballing sides in the division and frankly, relish games like this against good footballing sides. We are more than capable of turning them over at their place. Let them worry and underestimate us at the peril.

They will have to come at us and on their big pitch we will be able to play passing football as good as anything they can do. A great chance to progress to Round Three rather than get dragged down to the level of some 4th division outfit and lose.

No it won't. It will be an ordinary away win.

Did you see us play at Preston and Bristol City? Brilliant stuff. We are capable of some great football and what I saw of them at the Proact their performance wasn't as good as our away performances.

For me MK Dons are nothing more than a top half Division One side. I can't understand why so many posters are imploding. It's a poor draw only insomuch as it's MK Dons. I mean who wants to play them normally?

Two teams playing good football is a great chance to progress.

They were nothing to write home about but with home advantage they'll be a different prospect I would've thought

Can I just add I think their brand of football is formulaic, almost mechanical. They've never excited me when I've watched them. We know one thing about them. Under pressure at the Proact they began to get flustered and we didn't press home the advantage when they were rocking. They are a pastiche of Britsol City. Cook can do his homework based on such stuff, plan accordingly and come back with a victory.

With no pressure on we will also be different prospect. Have faith

[Dotty Com]

It's a good draw for us.

MK Dons play football the right way. This will suit us.

Based on the game at The Proact we know they're beatable.

Paul Cook won't have to worry about motivating the lads.

We'll be the underdogs.

No Rob, it's not.

78th best permutation from the 78 on offer.
