Guest Posted 28 February 2009 Posted 28 February 2009 Indeed I have. Mmmmmmmmmm. It's magic - it's prevented me from committing murder before now. I shall be treating myself shortly. Why football clubs haven't cottoned onto this stuff, is beyond me.
Asha Posted 28 February 2009 Posted 28 February 2009 Sour Taste or Sour Grapes What is so extraordinary about 5 minutes of injury time and disproportionate to what?Yes we were lucky to a degree but it has nothing to do with the amount of injury time added. I don't think they have a point at all saying too much injury time was added. It's not our fault their player (Llera?) decided to sit down for a minute or two for no reason.

Yes, he (Llera) did seem to be making a meal of things. He was quite good today but can be quite clumsy. He's filling for Danny Swailes who's injured.
Katy Posted 28 February 2009 Posted 28 February 2009 Is how you play football!We were amazing today, all over you lot. How your manager managed to bride the Ref to get 5mins added time is unbelieveable. You guys where loud when you acctually sung, but unfortunatly that wasnt very often. There could have been a superb atmosphere is you guys used your numbers and voice to acctually get behind you team. All i heard was Eieiei chants and Leicester, Leicester, Leicester. Very poor for 4.5 thousand fans. Anyway, your free kick was very good and it must have been pretty good getting a last minute goal, undeserved but still proves why you are top, not playing well but also not losing. Posh lost today so we remain second, but i think the title is yours now. Anyway, Cya in the CCC next season Hmmm, call me old fashioned but I believe that was something to do with your players falling over as soon as one of ours looked at them. God love ya Maxi! What a cracking goal, was seriously thinking we were heading for a defeat there for a moment. It's about time we started doing this to teams, they've done it enough to us in the past.
ousefox Posted 28 February 2009 Posted 28 February 2009 The celebrations were manic! I ended up falling into the gangway with my mate!! Did not deserve to get anything out of the game and we were very poor throughout. Gradel's goal was minted!!
Bert Posted 28 February 2009 Posted 28 February 2009 There's no way you deserved a draw today. We completely outclassed you most of the game. And I tell you what, we might have felt hard done by at the time losing Dyer but your're welcome to him. I think we'll settle for Chadwick or Puncheon instead any day. I thought your number 31 looked quite commanding in the centre of midfield in the first half, but other then that not one player stood out for me. In all fairness mate, I don't think any Leicester fan will say that we did deserve a draw. We were outplayed today. But your inability to convert as many chances as you had, proved costly really. Also, why is everyone being harsh to the two MK fans on here? Both seem decent to me. In the end , a fantastic result for us, felt like a win, and I can't remember the last time I celebrated a goal like that, and what a corker it was.
lildave3 Posted 28 February 2009 Posted 28 February 2009 That chance in the first half at 1-0, Wilbraham I think? Inside the box, quite close, shanked it wide. Horror miss. Oh - My old man got talking to an MK Dons old couple, the husband was a Man United fan. Ridiculous.
league1 Posted 28 February 2009 Posted 28 February 2009 7 minutes into injury time! You started off great and scored really early on. You kept pushing and looked dangerous everytime you got the ball in the last 3rd. Not long though and we were creating chances. Chadwick should of scored but Levens goal was class! You didn't look like a side that's on a 21 unbeaten run, so we kept attacking and finally Leven got the 2nd. Last 10 minutes you wasnt really threatning and we looked to have won! Then 5 minutes added time were put on (which I could sort of understand) but then another 5 were put on. You didn't really deserve nothing out of the game and yet we had to share the points. I don't know if your players were less up for it as the gap is really big, or scoring the goal early on, you might of thought it would be quite simple. You had good support, but some of your fans were in our end and fights did break out. Well we should see you next season.
Thracian Posted 28 February 2009 Posted 28 February 2009 Doubtless I'll be the only one but I'm starting to think our team's going into reverse gear because it's getting too messed up and complicated. First our goalkeeper and centre-backs have to change because of injury/suspension. No alternative there. Oakley, who's not a winger plays on the right but often moves inside into central midfield which is not a problem if someone else goes wide but they don't. King finds that, with Davies gone, he now has various central midfield partners, mainly Cleverley, Berner and Oakley but with others joining in on occasions and is clearly missing the understanding he developed with a regular partner. Instead of staying wide as he used to, Dyer often moves in a bit, narrowing the play and crowding the central area. Theoretically that would be fine if someone like Mattock or Berner provided alternative width and penetration but they often don't. It is all making it hard for our team to find a rhythm and we have lost the flow that we had for much of the early part of the season. Meanwhile one of the easiest players for fellow footballers to understand, Levi Porter, sits it out in some stand...a guy who really cdan retain and pass the ball. Porter or Cleverley? Porter or Berner? There really is no comparison. In pre-season I don't think I watched a game where Porter didn't score or make goals. Look too at Porter's stats when he played in the first team. Plenty of goals and assists and that was in the Championship. What goals and assists have Berner and Cleverley managed? I know we've had this 21-match run without defeat. But despite that we've not played well for a long time apart from against Walsall which was one of the few ocasions post Christmas when we've attacked a game and looked a well-balanced outfit. Sadly, on reflection I think that night flattered us. Walsall, with a much smaller squad than ours, were knackered after their massive effort in beating Leeds three days previously and never really got out of the blocks against us. Cleverley, with time and space, revelled in it, as did other City players. However, that match apart, yes we've been dogged and competitive but the sparkle, the pace, the movement have gone and so too the many and varied passing options we used to find, a problem desperately compounded by the absence of Tunchev, our failure to find a worthy replacement and the seeming inability these days for our full-backs to make much attacking impact. Watching City now if becoming more and more like it was in the Levein days. The ball spends so much time in the air, our defence rarely shows any urgent desire to support our attack and we no longer seem to have an appetitite for playing football and scoring goals, just for grinding out results. With Pearson being a God I hope he quickly gets these things back. And Porter too.
Joe. Posted 28 February 2009 Posted 28 February 2009 Reading the comments on Moo Camp about the referee are hilarious. You've got your own players to thank for the amount of time added on, it's not our fault Llera decided to go down "injured" for a minute or two, and it's not orur fault Puncheon decided to stroll off when he was substituted is it? It was fair time added on in my opinion, serving you lot right.
Rich Fox Posted 28 February 2009 Posted 28 February 2009 I have my own forum, the moocamp, i post there alot.i have made no attempt at being some hero for being an away fan on here, i have simply tried to pass on things i know in a lead up to the game, however if that is how you feel then fine. I'll at least keep it civil. bye edit - feel free to delete the account You have been a good help on here recommending where to drink, park etc. I really enjoyed it at your place today we had a pub crawl round fenny stratford before the game and all the locals I spoke to went out of there way to be friendly and helpfull. I will visit next season for sure. I am also bored about hearing about Wimbledon now there only cockneys anyway. The game was a bit disappointing for us and you definately deserved to win but im not moaning at us. Nigel just needs to tweak the side a bit play Gradel on tuesday for Dyre, maybe get chambers in. Good day out great turnout from city, good pub crawl before, friendly locals.
Maybes Posted 28 February 2009 Posted 28 February 2009 Porter or Cleverley? Porter or Berner? There really is no comparison. Quite right. As you have previously stated "Pearson is a God" He is making the right selections.

He's ok at times, but he's not going to be the difference between us being average, and dominant.

And why dont we close down the oppos goalie when he has the ball on the deck? Their first goal was cos Fryatt/Howard couldnt be arsed to close him down. This is one thing that really gets to me (apart from a ref who plays advantage to us when MKD were offside and they go to score from the woeful punt upfield) Sorry to the people sitting near me who probably got earache from me!
Bert Posted 28 February 2009 Posted 28 February 2009 You couldn't half tell the part-time barmy army were out in force today. Nearly 5,000 fans and barely any atmosphere from our end at times. A woman in front of us in the first half was having a moan to the steward about people standing up at the back. What the fuck?
lildave3 Posted 28 February 2009 Posted 28 February 2009 If i'm honest, before todays game I couldn't give a shit about Mk Dons. Now I can't cocking stand them.

Mate, she pissed me off royally. So pleased we moved from all the mutes that we got put with. People say Coventry at the Ricoh is bad with 5K of the city "faithfull" but today was truly awful bar maxi's goal and mad celebrations to boot!! How the ****** must have loved seeing the away end in raptures.

It was a mongfest, simple as. Hardly recognised any faces. Was great to see everyone outside, hugs all round, C-man (God knows what his missus thought when we jumped him!) Fez, you, Maybes, Muz etc.

Tilley Posted 28 February 2009 Posted 28 February 2009 So pleased we moved from all the mutes that we got put with. & the bunch a few rows in front of you spitting on the chairs & trying to rip them out were better!? Idiots.
Father Ted Posted 28 February 2009 Posted 28 February 2009 We were fairly average all game but the celebrations when we scored! Pissed off at the man behind me who moaned all game at Bruno Berner and kept telling everyone to sit down! Mardy old twat.
Asha Posted 28 February 2009 Posted 28 February 2009 I had some memorable, yet random moments of my own at the end. We were fairly average all game but the celebrations when we scored!Pissed off at the man behind me who moaned all game at Bruno Berner and kept telling everyone to sit down! Mardy old twat. Where were you sitting FT?
