Who do you fancy today - from a selfish easier to travel and away fans visiting sunny Bank would go for Donny or mkd - with Doñny winning the final uti

 

[Reg Head]

Come on Donny!

 

[Merthyr Imp]

Also from a selfish, easiest to travel to viewpoint - come on the Alex!

 

[Luke Imp]

Doncaster are in very good form, but you wonder whether they can keep that up all the way through the PO's.

MK are also in good form but are prone to absolutely calamitous defensive displays.

Crawley and Crewe are both in poor form.

One striking thing is the poor defensive records of all the PO sides and their low GD's compared to the L1 equivalents who've conceded around 10 less and scored 10 more on average.

Come on Donny. 15 mile drive.
I'm told their run has been fuelled by gradual returns long term injuries, so not sure they will run out of steam. Of course, Haks has turbocharged them too!

 

[Davidimp]

Almost certainly what cost us.
Donny seems to be the team to beat

Crawley pitch waterlogged, game off

 

[clanford]

Donny for me. Just haven’t had the chance to go to the Keepmote yet

 

[DEEPING IMP]

Crawley play off match postponed due to waterlogged pitch.

Crawley play off match postponed due to waterlogged pitch.

I don't have the right TV subscriptions, bet they've not gone down the road to Worthing v Braintree as an alternative

Doncaster keeper was sent off in the last match. Playing tonight. Did they appeal it?

Interested to see how much better adelakun looks at top of league 2 level.

Yes and somehow they won it!!
Pretty bizarre when you consider it was a very obvious red card offence

Was it though, looking at the rules only a red when denying a clear goal scoring chance. Defenders were back.

Looked to me as if the header was on the way into the net with the defenders not getting back in time. Anyway decision has been made

 

[DEEPING IMP]

Adelakun messes up a chance

 

[plumbob]

I see the authorities must've thought Mr Gill did a good job last weekend.
Hope the Doncaster mayor isn't there, they won't want to be suspended and miss the home game.

 

[nlondonimp]

Nice finish.
