Trip to see MK Dons

'Theatre of Dreams' - Stadium MK
On the journey, everyone was thrilled and perhaps scared due to the imagination of Akinfenwa’s destruction. It was rather an amusing trip with Mr Davies’ company.

We arrived just in time to the theatre of dreams, where all the stars rise and away challengers suffer. The quality was better than Wembley stadium but the size was about a tenth of it. The crowd was 40% full and cheering for the big win. The players were massive especially Daniel Powell. However, it was nowhere near Akinfenwa who was by far the strongest man on the pitch. Unfortunately, he did not play but everyone was excited that they were able to see him in real life.

The first was disappointing from both sides. However, after a poor first period, the Gills began the second half brightly.
Myles Weston's shot was pushed out by David Martin and from the rebound Cody McDonald found Fagan, who swept the ball into the far corner.
The closest the Dons came to an equalizer was when Dean Bowditch's shot was headed away by Leon Legge. The match ended 0-1 for the underdogs but pure domination was shown as the Dons had 63% possession, 14 shots (to 4), and 12 corners (to 2).

The supporters from Bedford could not hide their tears, especially Nihat, who was secretly crying in the McDonalds’ toilet.
