Hound Well it’s a win. Doesn’t sound convincing and fairly meaningless in the grand scheme but all good

Crowbar6753 …or we could just throw numerous tennis balls, get the match abandoned and let the EFL invent a new 15 point deduction for us

Not entirely sure what wing brings to the team either.

paultheroyal Flat first half and you could argue MK DONS were the better treat. Whatever that defensive line up was in the first half needs to stop. So open at the back certainly from our defensive left side. Any decent winger would have a field day and be allowed to have so many one on ones running into space.
Subs again made a positive difference second half and far more direct. Missed quite a few opportunities and could easily of been 5. Another good display from Azeez when outside the box, but by god that bloke needs a goal, and sharpish.
Not entirely sure what wing brings to the team either. Not a lot of running, energy and I am sure is part of the problem being so powder puff in the middle.
Anyway, win is a win, some momentum into Tuesday and a real must win game.
Aldershot or Eastleigh away please in the next round.

percy_freeman Aldershot home or away will do. Glad there are still some on here that remember the rivalry between us and as someone from Yateley who got the train from Sandhurst back in the day, there's some great memories of our meetings.

No thanks we'd lose to them

Other than a goal and 2 assists you mean?

Elm Park KidMillsy 1-1
I generally like Dellor but f**king hell I hate how he comentates with goals. Never seems to learn. It's often not instantly and unequivocally clear, when you're just listening, that a goal has been scored. He often dicks around with several long vaguely descriptive paragraphs of fluff while you can hear a cheer in the background not quite knowing if a goal has been scored or some other thing has happened. And eventually you'll glean from something he says a minute later that it was actually a goal at that moment.
Eg instead of "and they take a shot and... GOAL, It's 1-1!" he does something like "and they take a shot and... oh goodness what a shot, keeper didn't get to it, *crowd going wild cheering in background* and it was such a good move. Perhaps defence didn't see it. Seems against the run of play. I wonder what Selles is thinking now, what a great move. Who'd have thought they would let the opposition equalise [ah ok so they've scored have they, idiot!?]..."
Stupid pillock.
I think he assumes everyone is watching it live alongside him.
Yeah, I spotted that myself listening today. Almost every time it's like he's talking to someone who's watching the game with him, rather than actually informing us of what's happening.

His actual commentary can be heard with the video highlights on the Beeb, and goes something like this for the first MK goal: “…good early ball in, Pereira <cheering> tries to turn the ball away, and Alex Gilby, the MK captain, is on hand to score.” Similar for the second: “here’s the shot, through a crowd, Pereira makes a good first save <cheering>, but the second follow-up shot is there, Max Deans scored for MK Dons…” For all of the things he can be criticised for, this seems a tad harsh.
For the Reading goals there’s no mucking around:
“Kelvin into the box, here’s his shot… 1-0 Reading!”
“Wing delivers, header, GOAL!”
“Great chance, here’s Wing… 3-1!”
