Gannon blasts 'arrogant' Dons
guy nelson21/ 4/2008
PASSIONATE County boss Jim Gannon was unrepentant about a touchline clash with MK Dons winger Lloyd Dyer as his side's ten-match unbeaten run came to an end against MK Dons.
Keith Andrews' 74th minute winning-goal for Paul Ince's side drew a provocative celebration from Dyer, aimed directly at Gannon, who confronted him in front of the visitors' bench.
Gannon said: "Although MK Dons have got some quality players and play some good football I think they epitomise a lot of what I don't like about the game in England - snide practices, using fouls as a tactic, time-wasting gamesmanship and, most of all, arrogance.
"I'm proud of the way my players conducted themselves - they've got the best disciplinary record in the league."
MK Dons, who clinched promotion with a 3-2 victory, twice came from behind in a thrilling encounter watched by almost 9,000 fans.
"Personal mistakes cost us and the lads are disappointed about that," said Gannon.
"But I told them the other 99 things they did well so they shouldn't be too hard on themselves on the one thing they do wrong."

Typical ex Man U player, got all his tricks from the mad Scotsman, I was suprised with only! 3 mins extra time ,but they were winning.
Nothing special they'll be back down next season, I think Posh were the better of the two,
Anyway this time next season the concrete cows will need painting again.

Should less emphasis be placed on the results of tests and more emphasis on general education for children?
