On This Day in 1961
The gates were shut with around 2,000 people still outside as 9,870 fans saw the Dons win an Amateur Cup third round, second replay against Whitley Bay at neutral Kingston 6-1. "I have supported the club since 1949 and that night was the best I have ever seen Wimbledon play," supporter Roger Caley recalled. "The first two games were tight but at Richmond Rood we simply annihilated them, they could not live with us. My favourite Wimbledon player of all, Geoff Hamm, orchestrated Whitley Bay's downfall with a brilliant performance in midfield."

Humbled by Hampton, frustrated at Folkestone, beaten by Billericay and chastened at Chelmsford, the Dons' first Ryman Premier League campaign was no cakewalk. A late run saw Dave Anderson's side sneak into the play-offs where the expensively assembled Fisher side proved too strong and, a few days later, Kingstonian rubbed salt into the wound by winning the Surrey Senior Cup final. Relive every kick with the memories of men like Wayne Finnie and Antony Howard in the latest edition of the Historical Don.

On sale for £2 from outside the club shop at the Bradford, Northampton and Blackpool matches.
I didn’t realise how long Huntley had been in jail for. I like the idea that he was always in fear of being attacked given this wasn’t the first time it had happened.

Indeed, can't imagine (m)any tears she'd for Huntly, but I'd sooner see the state take such action, rather than another scumbag to do so.

6MDM. The strength of amateur football was in the north east and south east. When clubs from those two areas met in the Amateurr Cup, any neutral games were played near one of the competing teams. hence the 1935 final, between the Dons and Bishop Auckland, was staged at Middlesbrough, while the replay was at Stamford Bridge. j

Given that Northampton have Spits mate Tom Eaves up front, mint be best to play Bauer tomorrow who is good in the air and keep Lewis for Blackpool in midweek

According to JJ Joe Lewis came through a friendly this week and is in contention for tomorrow. Who knew we played a friendly?

REPD-all so sanitised these days, Mansfield in 1988 was a lot grimmer in the shadow of the miners strike

Afternoon all. Did Arsenal get the same allocation as we did last week at Mansfield?

Bet the grimness there will be a culture shock to their fans, let alone their players
Good news about Ian Huntley. I remember at our first match at Sandhurst fc, hearing the news that the 2 poor little girls body's had been found 😢

6 million-think there was a toss of coin. We did play Chorley at Walsall in 1977 though

But this is a pointless post 😀
I presume the third replay of the OTD match would have been up north if it had been needed. You were hardly going to get much of a crowd holding the game at Doncaster or Derby.

Kingston's Richmond Road ground was an odd location for the neutral location for today's OTD match. You would have thought it would be somewhere equidistant between Wimbledon and Whitley Bay, not a couple of miles from the former and over 300 miles from the latter. I wonder why that was?

Actually, scrub that - I may have found the OS article by way of a link from the email.

Spouting gibberish this morning, sorry.
That's odd. I think I learned about the 24 hour postponement from the landing page of the OS and I also received an email. I didn't see the Andy Thorn news on the OS, however.

We have an official website. All Wimbledon news should be on that surely. Not drip fed on other social media sites. Simple really but this clubs Comms continues to be rubbish.

Radio 4 this morning described Mansfield as the lowest remaining club in the FA Cup this weekend - they clearly forgot about Port Vale…
