I don't like to the use the term "must win", but today's game is very close to one if we're to finish the season in the top 6.
Title: Re: Wimbledon V TLO Doncaster

With Blackpool, Barnsley and Luton coming up I would say it is a must win game

This month will decide if we are a top 6 side for me getting a win and gaining points on those above and making a gap to those behind is what we need this month

Win today

Listening to the game on Radio Sheffield.
It doesn't sound as though either side are doing much.
Maybe had a decent chance for each side but it sounds a bit drab.

What happened here? Who played the backpass and can someone kick his arse!

"26’ Donny decide to make life interesting by passing their keeper into trouble. He takes the ball past Folivi two yards from his goal line ... then falls over to win a free-kick. Bizarre."

Short goalkick by Marosi was returned by Downing, perhaps a bit of a lively back pass.
Their player fouled Marosi when trying to get the ball.

At the other end, Marquis heads against the bar.

In other games, Wycombe all over Sunderland from the stats. 62% possession, 6-0 on shots, and the one goal up.
Barnsley edging closer to Luton at the top.
Blackpool looking like they'll win, and Peterboro looking fairly even with Bradford.

Weird. Marquis is fouled. One of their players runs 15 years to take the ball away from Marquis and block him. Marquis touches him and the guy falls over... both booked. Ridiculous.

There's a bigger issue here about League One becoming unbearable to watch. Wimbledon wasting time from mid-way in the first half when its 0-0 and they're bottom of the table. It was an act of 3 of their players looking to block a free-kick in the first half which led to the first yellow. That should be dealt with.

Couldn't agree more. It is so obvious what they are doing and the ref just shrugs his shoulders.

Plus, Marquis gets a literally incredible red, but Piggott goes into Butler's face with an arm in the first half and gets a pat on the bum.
