On This Day in 1965
Mike Kelly catches the ball as Sittingbourne's Arthur Bridger challenges during a 2-1, Southern League First division, win at the Bull ground. Harassed out of their stride by a committed home side, Wimbledon changed round a goal down and it took an Eddie Reynolds strike to bring them level before the referee awarded a highly dubious penalty. Johnnie Cartwright appeared to throw himself to the ground after being tackled and Paul Hodges converted from the spot.

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 ÂŁ2. 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]

Never a goal for Lincoln. And never a penalty for Derby
Superb goal for Rudoni just 5 minutes after he came on as a sub 👏

We never do well over Easter and Good Friday in particular. What's that as AFCW P14, W0, D7, L7.

Why did all those stewards decide to congregate in front of our view of the goal at our end? I didn't pay £26 plus mandatory postage to just look at them. There was a time when stewards used to crouch down or sit of chairs. Now they don't seem to care (or probably not paid enough to care).
Kite, I wondered whether it was payback for that sublime Robbie Earle goal….

Maybe today was payback for the OTD penalty?

Suppose if we finished with exactly the same points ,goals scored and conceded as Exeter we would go down.start worrying not
It all happens so quickly too must be hard to be a ref without VAR to back you up

Abysmal decision by the referee but remember he is a human and all humans make mistakes sometimes.

Or was that last season? We were 2-0 up at half time and then they dominated us in the second half but couldn’t get an equaliser… (?)
Luck doesn't even out over one game but I'm sure there have been instances this season where we have got lucky with a dodgy refereeing decision. Equally I'm sure Exeter or the others chasing us can claim to have been on the worng end of decisions.

as someone pointed out the other day we'd be even more relaxed if we hadn't been beaten twice by Exeter
They rather naughtily allowed you to cast your second votes before the first meeting about the resolutions. You could go back and change it after the first apparently but they already have plenty of votes to get it through so no point in harrassing people though they continue to do so.

Sooner there’s regime change the better afaic
In our first season back in league 1 in 2016/7 Lyle Taylor got injured and we didn’t score in the last 6 games………history repeating itself

It’s a good job that neither us nor anyone else really gets damaged by that goal being allowed. I’m sure we’ll get an apology from someone and that’s what really matters.

Good luck to Lincoln in the championship I don’t begrudge them the chance and hope they do well. I hope Stockport win the playoffs their fans were decent last week.
We didn't get what we deserved today. We didn't do enough to score (did their keeper have a save in the entire match?) but 0-0 would have been fairer. When I saw we were playing in yellow against the runaway leaders I feared we were going to get crucified (pun intended .... sorry, couldn't resist). Anyway, they didn't look like anything more than a lower mid table team and I can only put it down to nerves getting to them. Towler has gone downhill since he played for us. He was their weak link, especially in the first half. The game was like Stevenage away. We looked good but had no cutting edge. They will finish rock bottom of The Championship next season so I hope they enjoy the ride as it will be brief. Another club no longer producing matchday programmes.

I popped along to Lincoln United"s ground in the morning as it's next to Hartsholme Country Park. Lovely friendly club with a nice stadium that has cover on all 4 sides. They're in the equivalent of the Ryman 1st Division. The stadium manager opened the gates and gave me a guided tour.
32 minutes after Aideen asking about the second vote I received an email about it

JJ said Stevens and Tilley out for the season but Browne would be back in a couple of weeks and Hippo possibly later in April

Keefy implies he wants to bribe referees through decent funding, so we get more points. ;o)

Aideen, i'm a bit confused as i'm not really into this stuff. Email received on 27th says i do NOT need to vote as i voted FOR on first vote and that's already been recorded. This email says that if you haven't voted, you will receive an email with a link to the voting

So,let me get this right. We were the better team, their goal was via a handball by one of our ex players, but according to some, these things even out.

so much for Good Friday
I used to quite like Towler when he played for us…. Some of the late goals that have denied us a really good point have been incredibly frustrating this season - first day of the season away at Luton, Cardiff at home, and then today… :(

Speaking of funding, I’ve not had any Emails asking me to vote in second round. Has any one else? The cynic in me says maybe they know they have what they need for it to pass and don’t want to hound the non voters incase we vote no?!!

Agreed CW but the replacement players should be able to hit the target from some of those situations we saw today.

Any info on whether we’re expecting anyone from that injury list to be back available before the end of the season?
