THERE’S no place like home for Glyn Hodges after AFC Wimbledon prepared for their Plough Lane homecoming with a draw at bitter rivals MK Dons.
Scott Fraser rescued a point for the hosts at an empty Stadium MK after Joe Pigott opened the scoring within the first 10 minutes.
But manager Hodges already has an eye on Tuesday night as AFC prepares to host Doncaster Rovers at their new stadium.
“We will take the point and it is a big point for us. We knew this game and the one on Tuesday would be massive for us, so a point is a good start,” he said.
“We will take it, but I think their goalkeeper is the difference between us coming away with all three.
“Credit to them and the way they reacted after we scored. Joe Pigott’s goal was brilliant and he leads from the front. I’m pleased with every single player out there.
“It is a massive game on Tuesday, we knew this was a big game for the fans, but Tuesday will be on another level altogether.
“We are all looking forward to getting there. It feels like home and we can’t wait to be in the heart of Wimbledon – we can’t wait to perform there.
