We used to be discussing for up to a week before games in the past, to be fair.

This is indeed true, lately though it seems to be the day before games at the earliest.

Mike Williamson just been announced as their gaffer. The old favourite 'new manager bounce' may be on show on Saturday.

As predicted a couple of days ago.

Looks like Carlisle will appoint current MKD boss Mike Williamson ahead of our game against them on Saturday.

https://www.newsandstar.co.uk/sport/24589513.mk-dons-boss-frame-carlisle-united-head-coach/

MKD fans seem glad to be rid of him.

I will never forget Wellens being appointed the day before we played Carlisle a few years back, we all hoped for the new manager bounce.

It ended up with a 4-0 home defeat to Saturdays opponents. Sometimes its just too quick to make a difference.

Carlisle, like us, have only a single win this season but they sit 3rd bottom with the other 5 games ending as defeats. They have had 10 defeats in the last 11 (8 defeats in 9 in the league) games.

He's hardly had a surging start with MK this year.

Hope we go with an unchanged side, and that Cox is fit. I wonder how much Barden is breathing down Bycroft's neck. Bycroft hasn't made a mistake for a few games now, but it's still possible that Barden is impressing in training.

We seem to be the only club that never gets this so called 'new manager bounce'.

I'm dreading every upcoming game slightly less than I used to, so that is something.

Yes it is. Max 2 adults and 2 kids. Just pop to the club shop with your nationwide pass and they’ll add the discount…can take a few hours to be added.

You used to be able to get as many as you want by just buying 2 at a time but they have identified that and clamped down

Williamson likes to play some suicidal football out from the back.

His issue is, he has some of the best ball playing defenders at Franchise, and they are still vulnerable.

Will be interesting if he's as persistent at Carlisle. With how we pressed last week, let's hope they play that way.
