I still stand by arguing beating MK is more important than other games. I think it wrong to presume that beating the lower ranked sides is easier at this time of the season when they may be battling relegation. Whilst I accept any six wins would be good enough, surely not losing to the only team (other than Wigan) who are likely to catch us is significant. Not saying it is panic stations if we lose but it is a game where points effectively count double - the classic six pointer!

All games are important (mindset) but I get where you’re coming from, I’d also rest a few because I think a few need it but not sure Ladapo and Kayode work
We don't want to be playing with a weakened side against Shrewsbury.A win is three points whether it's against the top teams or not,they have the same value.We must not underestimate any team.Possibly Warney may rest one or two and put them on the bench but we need to be fully focused on this match.
PW has said he intends to make changes as he thought we looked jaded at Argyle
That could mean just a couple of players or six. Woody will probably return anyway
Could be smoke and mirrors from our leader plus he might change his mind between now and 6.30pm on match day
103 points to equal Wolves record. 111 still possible.
Got to agree MK Dons is a must not lose match but if we go into it on the back of a win at Shrewsbury the onus on them is to come at us. Incidentally MK are 40-1 to win the league which seems more than a bit generous. Anyone with a decent bet on us (not me unfortunately) ought to have a saver at 40's. I rate them a bigger danger than Wigan.
I am on with with Fixture list for top 8 teams, done 4.
Looking at the 4 fixture lists I have done -
... Millers ...
. Hard games - MK Dons [H] - Wycombe [A] - Sunderland [A] - Portsmouth [A] - Ipswich [H] - Oxford [H]
. 60/40 games - Shrewsbury [A] & [H] - Lincoln [H] - Charlton [H] - Burton [A] - Gillingham [A]
Millers need to take every game as it comes, play the best team we can, if winning a game comfortably,
then bring on other players into the game.
... Wigan Athletic ...
. Hard games - MK Dons [A] - Ipswich [A] - Plymouth [H] - Portsmouth [A]
. 65/45 games - Bolton [H] - Lincoln [A]
.60/40 games - Fleetwood [H] - Wimbledon [H] - Crewe [A] - Morcambe [H] -

MK Dons have some hard games on the horizon, having to play teams in the promotion / play-off
positions, 3 of the games away, 2 at home.
April sees the clubs last 4 games of the season, playing 3 top teams, Sheffield Wednesday at home,
Oxford away, Morcambe home, final game Plymouth away.
... Oxford Utd ...

Oxford United have some hard games to come, playing some good teams, they will look not to
drop points against the lower league teams.
