On This Day in 1964
3,350 fans watch what turns out to be the last game of amateur football ever played by Wimbledon at Plough Lane. The Dons' narrow 1-0 victory over old rivals Kingstonian left Les Henley's men needing just one point from their remaining three matches, all away from home, to secure a third Isthmian League successive title. "Amateur football is not evolving or changing," club chairman Sydney Black explained as he pushed for the club to turn professional. "We have reached the stage where we cannot go forwards. If we stay where we are we will go backwards and we want to avoid that at all costs."

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]

That used to be usual Airsy. Then the whole “second season syndrome “ came in. I’d love to see more interchange between the top two divisions as long as it doesn’t fuel the big six*

Coventry's title all the more remarkable as they didn't have parachute payments. I really don't like Millwall but I'd like to see them promoted to buck the trend.

Ipswich is a difficult one for me but I'll say no more.
Trig, re: your moral. Possibly, but it may be changing a little bit at a time. After all it's looking like 2 of last years promoted sides are safe.

Jack Rudoni, Champion of the Championship. Well done to Robbo and all the academy staff for their work with that young man.

I hope he gets a good stab at the Premier League. It’s a shame that it’s easy to fear for teams promoted into the Premier League these days. Especially now there’s a narrative of how easy PSG have it in their own league so can challenge for the Champions League. Pro tip: they’ve won it once ever.

Now need Luton and Plymouth to beat Barnsley and Vale on Saturday as well as Bolton beating Bradford to mean that Bradford need something from Exeter on the last day.

I heard today that since Chelsea’s new owners took over they’ve paid Brighton a quarter of a billion pounds in transfer fees and now tonight Brighton are going above them in the table.

Haven’t checked but they’re saying that if Leicester don’t win tonight they’re confirmed relegated.

Watching Leicester v Hull. Hull just when 0-1 up. Many Leicester fans have stayed away apparently. More boos than cheers when the goal went in - was a suicidal possession-lead give away goal.

But, again, we know that’s not how this group of people work. I did notice in the rather A Level class word art that was used on the front page of the “democratic renewal” report there was “voluntary but not amateur” and that was my first clue that the report was going to be a total shambles. Mates and favours that’s the Dons Trust in the modern era.
