On This Day in 1975
Ian Cooke strikes one of his two goals as the Dons beat Leatherhead to lift the London Senior Cup in front of 3,283 fans at Champion Hill. Having travelled to Burton and Grantham for Southern League fixtures in the previous five days, it was a weary Wimbledon team that collected the trophy "After 60 games already this season, my players looked tired," manager Allen Batsford admitted. "But I am delighted for Ian Cooke who has done so much for the club over the years."

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]

Tottenham's run does put ours into perspective. We are in trouble because of a big injury list and a shallow squad due a lack of money. Spurs have a squad of internationals and have not won in 14. It is possible they do not win again this season which would be worse than our last relegation.

Next week against Brighton is not an easy one and then away at Wolves will decide their season.
Not watching the game OI. But based on what you say, I assume the ref blew for a penalty but was overruled by VAR. In that case a drop ball is the correct restart. You'd only delay blowing for a penalty if there was still an immediate / imminent scoring opportunity.

Maybe TS can explain. I didn't think it was a penalty but I did think it was a corner rather than a dropped ball for Sunderland. Is rhe ref claiming he blew for the penalty before the ball went out, in which case he was far too quick to whistle?

Is that Leatherhead guy really the goalkeeper (no gloves)? Maybe he was a defender falling as he tried to clear. It would raise the question about where the keeper was.

We played in yellow against Leatherhead. I think their goalkeeper is Swannell, who had a red jersey.

The battle of the giant killers that season.
Other than the very soft long throw goal and the one they really should have scored I didn’t think we defended too badly yesterday. That was the only positive I could take though. Surely our best bet of getting any more points is to pack our final third and not take any risks. We looked totally impotent going forwards after about 20-25 minutes yesterday. Injuries, lethargy and no real plan combined to make that an easy clean sheet for Burton.

Need to get 2 of Johnson, Lewis & Bugiel back. Return of Browne & Tilley good news. Main diff between sides at Stockport was they took their chances and we didn't. Other stats level.

RK - I think you mean the volunteers' coach. After nearly three hours at M1 Northampton services (instead of the planned half hour) we came back on the replacement coach which Anderson's had fairly impressively sent up from London in less than two hours. Reached Tolworth at about 10.45pm, and I presume NPL about 11.15pm. At least we hadn't been stuck on the hard shoulder but were ijn the services; thank you to everyone on board for their patience.

As far as I know the separate supporters' coach got back (along the M40) in normal time.
Exeter won’t pick up two wins out of three so we basically need one point from three games. They are 1/3 odds to go down so statistically they are still very likely to get relegated despite our atrocious form.

Not sure where our point is coming from but they have a habit of turning up unexpectedly.

I have never seen JJ look so hacked off as he was in his post match interview after Luton. The injuries and total lack of squad depth have clearly done him in, mentally.

Hopefully one of the ten interested investors will give JJ and CC an improved budget to spend over the summer. Yep.
Jackson to stay or go at the end of the season? Whatever our fate.

as I think Nick alluded to earlier, the Prem relegation season ended with one point from 30. So could be a little bit of history repeating. ....The point was against Oldham, Hartson at Bradford sending off in tunnel before kickoff kept them in it I thought safety was settled with 1-1 home draw v Villa (Hartson late goal).Players Did not start making an effort at Southampton until 2 down and it filtered through Bradford beating the victims.
