There are more performances to come
"Over the four games, they've been very good performances and we've created lots of chances.If they keep sticking to their beliefs, then the goals will go in, you can also look for that lucky goal as well, the one that goes in off somebody's backside.We've just got to keep believing and keep doing it."
"Confidence isn't the problem, the lads are confident and they kept going.On Tuesday night it was a wonder goal and sometimes a goal like that can take the wind out of your sail, it didn't affect the lads and they kept at it.It's frustrating and everyone was disappointed after the game.The correct words were said, not choice words, no screaming or bawling, but the tinkering that needs doing to turn performances into victories are only little minor things and as I said on Tuesday night, that is a fine divide between success and failure."
"There are areas that you can always look to improve. We have a good group of players that have all stated by their own admission that they have underachieved.Performance wise, there is more to come.They have given a good level of performance in the last four games, now its results and that is what every body is judged on, and that's what needs improving."
"The fans can still play their part in this, we know that there wasn't a big away following on Tuesday night, but that was understandable after the trips they have had to make recently.I can imagine that it wasn't cheap to go to Southampton, but they will still play their part.We are back at home and we have some tough fixtures coming up.The fans have been in good voice at home and in the Norwich and Bradford games, you can sense it that the crowd is behind you from the off, and that's what is needed."
"There will be dips and there will be mistakes made.Now it's whether you can ride with them or scream and shout at them.Whatever team I put out, they will make honest mistakes.If they are not, then you change it or leave it to yourself and not the two and a half thousand managers that are sat in the crowd.We have to stick together; it's been a tough few years and its going to be another tough year and a tough end.The reason we have got out of it at the end in the past is by all stepping forward.There is still a lot of football to go and the fans have their part to play, I've got my part to pay, so have the directors and so have the players."
"Whether we do it right or we do it wrong, I will tell you how it is, and that's what I expect from the players because when they cross that white line, I expect them to play.Records do not lie, the other night we lost 1-0.Take it; it's how you are affected by that.Sadly they couldn't affect it on the night, but we have 20 games left to affect it, and they will do if they stick at it and be honest with themselves."
"MK Dons are a good organised unit.They've had a little bit of a blip of late, they work hard, they have a bit of pace in their and that's what Paul Ince wants from his sides, its what he had at Macclesfield and they like to play football.We know what to expect, we've given the lads a few tasters but we have to worry about what we are going to do.We cant affect them, but we can affect ourselves."
