David Martin: Onwards and upwards for Dons

Making their first appearance in the fourth round, the League One outfit bossed the Premier League hosts and ran out 4-2 victors.

A club record travelling support of 3,155 were at Loftus Road to witness the famous win - the biggest in the Dons' short history.

"It is great to be at a club like this," declared Martin. "Obviously it is only 10 years old so all the fans are pure. They've not experienced moments like this before.

"It is great to come to a place like Loftus Road and do really well. Hopefully we have made some lifelong fans.

"We are making history. The AFC Wimbledon game was by far the biggest game for me. It was like my FA Cup final. Anything that happens now would be a bonus.

"It is great to be a part of this team at the moment. The dressing room is great - all the lads get on.

"Hopefully it is onwards and upwards for MK Dons."

m starting to think Roman may never actually be happy at the top level. If he wants all conquering fancy football I wonder if he'd be better off buying a lower division side then paying outlandish salaries to attract high caliber players too good for the division.

afa has to be favourite for the Everton job now, surely :) He'll realise his ambition to live and work on Merseyside again, get the best out of whoever plays for them, maybe win some cups and be thoroughly loathed by the toffee fans. What's not to like? Go ead, Ken, gimajob!
