RK - yes. Thanks.

Dazzer, they've released Block B and I guess they'll release C if demand justifies it. Most Clubs seem to release block by block now so they can kettle us in to reduce demand for stewarding

They are bloody desparate. Yet another begging email from the DT asking me to vote. I ditched membership of that organisation some time back. I then got given membership whether I wanted it or not. Well, I didn't want it, I still don't and I won't be voting.

OKU is an FX payment provider not a bureau de change - daft idea

Stockport away tickets sold out - really 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

I can donate 20 million Zimbabwean dollars if that helps?

I've got a 2,000 Indonesian rupiah note I'm willing to donate to the club as long as they give me a breakdown of what they would spend the money on.

Didn't Barry Silkman play into his 40s or even 50s, although not at that age for us?

That’s comfortably one of JG’s poorest ideas. Given the ubiquity of the Euro and the US dollar, left over currencies of other amounts that fans might bring along would be very unlikely to exceed a thousand quid. A complete waste of everyone’s time, even among OKU would be willing to give us the GBP equivalent for myriad tiny sums of different currencies.

Dannie Bulman was about 38.

Reigning champions Man City were relegated in 1937/8 even though they were top scorers in the league that season with 3 more goals than winners Arsenal.

wasn't Ashley Bayes on the bench for us once?

Peter Shilton was 45 when on the bench for us

Sully was 43 when he last played for us. Mick Harford was 38 (Dave Donaldson was 36)

I do enjoy your blog, BW 👍

New Plough Lane by Numbers blog out on how Cope & Jackson have reshaped the squad around durable 'peak age' players over the past few years. Give it a read if of interest (I do think it's quite interesting but obviously would say that): [Link]

Trying to think of whether Liverpool might be the worst defending champions in Prem history.

Who was the oldest player to play for Wimbledon in a competitive match? Dave Donaldson?

I agree with Kevin Gage, 17 years and 11 days.. The Youngest FL appearance in the AFCW era is Alfie Bendle, 17 years 3 months and 3 days. Justin Clarke played in the EFL Trophy ages 16 years 2 months and 13 days.

And what do you expect us lot to do with your ideas Galty? Why don't you just offer them to the club?

Might be a good idea though OKU don't look like they do much in the physical currency area so it would probably largely fall to volunteers agfain. A lot of the negativity you get is because your ideas often, at best have significant questions, at worst have gaping holes. Responding to these questions and points seems minimal with your attitude being that people just want to rubbish anything positive about the club.

CW - Still waiting on the other QF + SF.

A potential revenue generating idea for the Club which could be run through our Foreign Exchange affiliate partner OKU Markets – they could sponsor it. At the next Club International Day fans should be encouraged to bring and donate any old foreign currency they have left over from holidays and business trips (notes & coins). I’m sure most people have old currency hanging around from countries which they are unlikely to return to. Apologies in advance for posting anything remotely positive or of economic benefit to the Club.
