On This Day in 2006The Dons are shown on the attack as they beat bottom-of-the-table Walton and Hersham 3-1 in a Ryman League Premier game at Kingsmeadow. Who scored the hat trick that throttled the Swans? Yesterday's answer - Richard Jolly.

The disallowed goal it seems the ref was just guessing. Looks fine from this angle [Link] 
i hate football and don't know why i decided all those years ago as a kid to like it and then even worse become a fucking Wimbledon fan. Thanks Robbie Earle. 
I said at the start of the season that we'd likely finish bottom, so after starting so well and gaining quite a few points, I thought we might slip into mid-table and be safe for another season, but the way we've nosedived lately, I think 23rd will be the best we can hope for, what with how bad Port Vale are but I still wouldn't be surprised if even they could finish above us. Basically, we are that shit. 
Plough Lane was meant to provide a way to extend our competitive range. Instead we spent far too much money on a stadium which delivers far too little money and we appear to have done nothing to change that. The third floor is now I believe offices for club staff - it was built at great expense to be revenue generating for the club. Trigger - agree about economic reality setting in 
Terrible evening, but at least we got to enjoy that promotion last season - can’t wait to see how many we ship at Orient and Wycombe, this could get embarrassing…. 🙄 
This feels different from last time. Last time was because of small minds making small minded decisions and thinking they were big minded ones. This time feels like economic reality biting regardless of any decisions. Another bugbear is knocking it straight back to Lewis at starts/restarts. Take a look at where the opposing keeper is. Also, take defensive throw-ins to feet, not bouncing into the midriff so it takes more time to control, enabling opponents to close in on our player receiving the ball. All simple coaching! Couldn’t be there tonight (thank you, South West Trains) but doesn’t sound like I missed much. Given that we are now just above the relegation zone now, and financial factors mean that we are likely to be relatively weaker after the January window (absent a bit of magic from
Mr Cope) l, it is hard to see the rest of the season being anything more than a long slide towards L2. 
Agreed Amba re the corners. Easiest oppo team talk of the season. 
I’d have Hutchinson, Browne and Hippolyte as the middle three. And we need to stop putting everyone in the goal area at attacking corners. The current tactic is utterly brainless. 
Jaw upset Hutchinson got us into the playoffs after having a heart attack. Worth the money in that one goal,Wembley win and league one football. Jaw Idiot! why would i include a player who has not played this season? Too many units I think. 
Not often I do this but gave up watching towards the end. Just couldn't watch any more of our aimless hoof ball. Next two games are going to be tough and then we have a good stretch to sort out what we are doing cause at the moment we are going down. Honestly, we need to offload some deadwood and bring in some fresh faces. League One is a step up and some players aren't coping. I'm starting to regret asking to cover the Leyton Orient game on NYD... Hutchinson? Fuck off. Wage stealing Wage thieves all of them and Jackson won't worry as we cannot afford to sack him. Desparate times ending the match with all our forwards on! In the Premier days the older players carried the younger ones coming through - do we see this in this team? Someone could tell me they see it. If we can’t even give Exeter a game at home then we’re on a long goodbye. The only thing the club can do to try and arrest our decline is to sack JJ and I’ve been a balanced commentator on him during his tenure I’ve seen him as not good enough and also fair play done wonders with what he’s had to play with. What we have now is not about the manager or Cope. It’s about our ability to compete and our ability to work out where the money is disappearing. Hutchison and Harbottle as DMs. McCoy-Splatt was injured last I heard. Hutchinson 
Do we have any midfield options? McCoy-Splatt has disappeared, apart from Reeves, Smith, Hippo and Maycock who are our other midfielders? Sorry, having a senior moment 
While there was some energy from 80 minutes, where was it before that? Reeves and Smith need to be dropped. Weird that the linesman who had a clear view of Omar didn’t signal for a foul. Foul by Bugiel on their player. Which was probably the correct decision. The replays will be interesting to see.
