On This Day in 1973
Dave Armstrong heads for goal as the Dons are well beaten by title chasing Yeovil Town in a Southern League match at the Huish ground. With nearly 4,000 in attendance and a well-funded 'Elect Yeovil' campaign to secure Football League status in full swing, visiting supporters could only look on with envy as their near penniless club slipped still further down the pecking order.

As the Premier League clubs grew richer 30 years ago, little Wimbledon struggled to survive. Despite a good start to the 1995-96 season, an alarming autumn slump saw the Dons flirting with relegation before victories at Stamford Bridge and Highbury within a four-day period over Christmas lifted some of the gloom. Progressing through to the FA Cup 5th round, only a late, late equaliser from Efan Ekoku at Huddersfield kept hopes alive before a memorable quarter final with Chelsea. Four wins in the five games after a replay defeat ensured survival for another year. Every match is celebrated with the memories of Ekoku and many others in the latest edition of the Historical Don.

On sale from outside the club shop at the Luton, Plymouth and Huddersfield games for just £2. With printing costs soaring, the price will increase next year so grab it while you can.

Dust your boots down, guys - this is your chance to play on the hallowed turf of Plough Lane. The WAWF Cup takes place on May 31 and we are looking for fans to line up to play along side the likes of Jon Main and Mickey Haswell (more TBC), in teams managed by Mark Robinson and Terry Brown. Full use of stadium/changing rooms etc. Hampshire referee etc. West Stand open for fans, Phoenix open for thirsty fans/players. Photos of the day and probably a few bits thrown in tbc too. And if you can't play, why not be an assistant manager or a mascot for the day... All proceeds to the playing budget, too. [Link]

Lurker - just reading back - apologies for not answering yesterday. I get that, the bleak reality is what you’re saying is that the opportunity cost of Tilley is Hardbottle. It just reaffirms the sorry state of play and finances are in as I guess that neither are that expensive in the scheme of things in league 1

Sandy - I was astonished we didn't make one or two subs at half time and was astonished at the unprofessionalism of Bugiel and our bench in not getting him off with theother two as he was obviously injured 5 mins before the subs were made.

“Hopefully, there's a little bit of good news in that regard with a few of the lads that have been out that perhaps might be available to us and assess the lads from today - Joe, Pat and Omar, whether they can play any part. But it’s unlikely, when you've come off on a Monday through injury, to be able to go again on Saturday. That's a quick turnaround. So, I don't know. I don't know the answer to that.”

From the JJ piece on the OS. Desperately need that good news for the Burton game.
Time to start the journey back to Cornwall…

I wonder if we've got any decent under 12 CBs at the club...

Bit unfortunate that the three subs "windows" don't account for genuine injuries like ours yesterday, but I guess if this sort of thing was introduced there would be scope for abusing it.

I could see Oxford if they drop to League 1 putting JJ on their list of replacements for Matt Bloomfield, not so sure if Pompey would do the same though

OI - Tony has a soft spot for us as a club, and been to many games at KM and Plough Lane. Was even at one of the Play Off Finals too doing his media bit, but with a large bias in our direction.

dont see what has changed in Nolan’s life or ours in the last 7 years that he’d suddenly want the job.

6 games ago we were sitting pretty, then 1 point and 4 of the 6 games without a goal, 8 players injured., going to be tough to get anymore points.. Exeter might get a draw at Plymouth, (local derby's anything can happen) point at Burton and will probably beat Bradford home last game as Bradford will have confirmed a play off place and will be resting players.

Wigan 3 wins 2 draws from last 6 games,Burton 2 wins 2 draws from last 6 games , blackpool 3 wins 1 draw from last 6. Still it was a better season than I was expecting and even some entertainment in February

“Interesting” thing about our squad. In league one you can have a maximum of 22 outfield players aged 21 and over. We’ve only had 17. And one of those is recovering from a heart attack. At the start of yesterday’s game (and for a while now), we could just fill a first team starting 11 from the 21s and over. By the end, even if we played both keepers (one outfield), we can’t field a first team from 21&+ players.

Plus, in theory, Exeter only need four points to overtake us due to the six-goal swing in GD yesterday. Thank Luton for having mercy on us and turning the last 10 minutes into a training exercise.

Morning all. Really strange situation in that we only need one game to be safe, and that could be Saturday. But with the injuries I see Wigan, Blackpool, and Burton all overtaking us by the end of the season. Exeter have a goalscorer which makes all the difference in the run-in and they are probably looking at us and Doncaster as teams to catch.

Had an interesting chat after the match yesterday about Jackson. If we go down I’d absolutely expect someone to come in for him. But anyone looking at where we’ve been when we’ve had our first choice players would pay attention. I’d wonder if one of the sides looking for play offs with the money/squad they have, who don’t make that, would take a punt on him for next season.

HB RP. Sadly (or maybe thankfully) my birthday isn't during the football season. I have the delight of various World Cup group matches on my birthday this year which don't include England so I won't be watching. England and Scotland matches only for me.
