It was a great title race last season going right to wire. Good to see Real Bedford starting well and ex MK Irish players Shaheim and Ty getting some minutes in the process. 
Another good result against Levy yesterday as well 

IrishRover - Welcome back and thanks for posting, you must have been deeply disappointed that Milton Keynes Irish missed out on promotion last season after finishing seventeen points ahead of Leverstock Green in the regular season and also twenty four points ahead of FC Romania who inexplicably beat you 3-0 at Manor Fields in the Play-Off Semi Final.

Yes of course disappointed but also extremely proud. We ran Real Bedford to the very end on a shoe string budget in comparison. Ultimately the playoffs are a toss of the coin and Levy were well deserved winners over their 2 playoff games.

Terry Shrieves has added lots of experience and depth to the squad for this seasons campaign and so far its been a really promising start. That being said it is only a start and with 27 games to play its going to be an exciting season to see how it plays out.

25 goals for and 0 allowed is unbelievable. I long for another matchup in the future. I'll keep checking in and hope to see you building on your impressive start.

3 more points for the Irish tonight against a stubborn Aylesbury Vale Dynamos. 
 

Callum Hirst’s 72nd minute goal just about enough for the points on a night where goalkeeper Tom Ladyman picked up MOTM and his 8th clean sheet of the season!

FA Vase action this Saturday away against Irchester.

It was a 2-1 win on Saturday afternoon and safely through to the next round of the FA Vase.

With the draw carried out on Monday afternoon it’s a local trip away to previous winners Newport Pagnell Town on October 21st. 
 

Irish are back in league action this Saturday when they host Winslow United at Manor Fields.

IrishRover - That's arguably the worst draw Milton Keynes Irish could have got isn't it after having it all their own way so far in the competition and drawing two SSML Division One Club's in previous rounds.

Arguably the worst draw? How have you come to that conclusion? Should be a great game, a local derby against a side who in recent years have been excellent in the FA Vase. I’m sure it’ll be a great tie on October 21st at Willen Road.

IrishRover - Well what I mean is you could have drawn another Step 6 Club at home, or away for that matter, and sailed through to the Second Round of the competition as you did at Wellingborough Whitworth and Irchester United, instead you drew a local Step 5 side away who, as you say, are FA Vase specialists having got to two recent Finals. Anyway good luck on Saturday 19 October according to this graphic:
