MK Dons manager Karl Robinson told 91热爆 Three Counties:

"To come here with a statement of intent was important for all the players. I think that was important today, after the weather was difficult and the pitch was firm.

"The way the players have worked all week and took things on board is a real sign of character from them.

"No one is getting carried away, as you can imagine. We just worry about ourselves and that's all we can do.

"Nothing is handed out and there's still a lot of work to be done. I think it's firmly important now that we keep our feet firmly on the ground."
