Just like we've done many times before. I thought we were supposed to have strikers who could strike!

MK Dons now winning 3-2.
We just can’t make any clear chances. Morecambe are a completely different team from the one we beat at the end of October.

2 - 1

FT: 2 - 1

Unlucky lads just wasn’t our day, well done Morecambe. Fantastic away support you did the lads proud.

Apart from the last 10 minutes..... that was dreadful.

Apart from the two daft goals, nothing much between us and probably a game that looked like a hard fought 0-0 draw.

Worrying that we seem to vulnerable to corners though.

We tried everything to break them down but left ourselves too much to do with those soft goals. Hard luck Barrow, wasn't to be today.

Poor performance today. Run of the ball didn’t go for us today. Referee allowed them to try and swap shirts with our players for most of the game. Did anyone notice how far back he put our wall when they had a free kick on the right, looked more like 15 yards than 10!

Some poor performances today from.a number of players. Gave them a soft 2 nil lead and they clug in to it. Had so much possession but didn't start doing anything with it until 10 to go. We stood off them so much first half way too much respect. 2nd half they kept giving it us back with a bit of a press. Some dreadful crosses today too. Nevermind. Onto the next . We didn't look ourselves today and as someone already said everything went against us.

That was awful. One game but we were shite.

We threw the kitchen sink at them but Morecambe focused on defence and why not with a 2 goal lead.

Frustrating game, after that poor start we just didn’t seem to be able to break them down. Our usually strong midfield struggled today. Shame in front of such great away support (a bit like New Years Day at Wrexham).
No need to panic, but I think the automatics are a bit of a stretch now. Some interesting results elsewhere - Notts County pulled it back to 3-3 v NKD. Gillingham and Crewe both got hammered but Crawley had a very good win at Newport. At the moment I would take Crewe in the playoffs and let Crawley MKD sort out the other match.
