Given that the 88 Cup Final is now 38 years ago not many people under 50 were able to go, sobering thought

If chigwell or anyone from WHAD read here ,I finished 3rd on the Fletcher predictor league ,apparently a £50 prize. Could you donate the £50 prize to DLAG for me , thanks chaps.

“The good old days” didn’t exist, they’re a figment….

I enjoyed the old days and I enjoy the new days, in both cases recognising a degree of frustration with events both on and off the pitch.

Good to see season ticket sales keeping up despite the price increase

Imagine we get transported back to the 'good old days' and we end up watching Egil Olsen

Morning all. There were plenty of shit games even under Harry...

Spit-probably looking back with rose tinted specs

OI, correct and many Palestinians are descendants of Judeans/Israelites who inhabited the region thousands of years ago and over generations converted to Christianity and Islam

WBM - I think they did specify a range of punishments. It should be for the group adjudicating the case to choose from that range and they are 'independent' of the EFL. The problem is that you do actually need time to sort an issue out, Southampton should have two weeks to respond to the charge and whichever side loses they should have two weeks in which to appeal. So the range of punishments during playoffs should be a fine and/or points deduction in the next season the clubis subject to EFL rules. Any delay and uncertainty is totally unfair to Hull.

Laurence - Palestine has for many centuries been recognised as a geographical area, so people living in that area can certainly call themselves Palestinians, even if you wish to call them something different.

Tut tut Laurence! Palestinians are a distinct ethic group of 14.5m people (5.5m in West Bank & Gaza and 1.7m in Israel) worldwide recognised as such by the UN

I much prefer wimbledon fc (every week /season was exciting) than afc wimbledon.( stuck in a football coma style on the pitch and off the pitch :-) )

The spying thing is hugely amateur from the EFL, I write contracts for a living, if you write in a clause that you need to be punishable then you need to be clear about the punishment in all situations! There aren't that many, league, cup and play-offs! It was either very lazy or very dumb.

Players are not supporters on the whole and Sanchez seems to have an issue with AFC - I wonder why 😉 As for us, we are a separate club from WFC, but the only club proud to use its name as Wimbledon and proud of its history and hold all the history as Franchise handed it over when other supporter groups refused to recognise them or even play them in friendly games.

6 million-players and managers come and go but the heart and soul of the club is the fans who remain loyal in my case for 55 years since I first went in 1971 and others no doubt longer than me. When the going gets tough the players bugger off for their next payday whereas we stayed and started again from the bottom.

Thought the moderators on here did not like political posts on here!

Meadow - no such people as Palestinians. Perhaps you mean Jordanians? Or even Trans-Jordanians?

They have barely mentioned the Hull City fans, thousands of whom have presumably booked train tickets, hotels, and days off work - and the club hasn’t even been able to sell tickets yet…

Soton should forfeit the first leg of the playoff semi 3-0 and hence Boro go through on aggregate. Would be difficult for Soton to appeal as there is no alternative direct precedent (Leeds were punished when there was no specific law against spying).

Just saw that Sanchez clip discussing his views on AFCW, franchise and WFC. This topic comes up from time to time. Most people don't give a shit anymore. However, given he was around back then, he seemed to really struggle with dates of when AFCW was formed and if he thinks MK is only 30 miles up the road then he needs to brush up on his geography. The common misconception about 2004 (not 2002) is it was not simply a name change for franchise. The new name was for a brand new legal entity as WFC was liquidated. WFC was never renamed. This new club then had new colours, a new badge, played in a different part of the country in as new stadium in front of different supporters, with different owners. A few players and staff may have TUPEd across from WFC to Inter-MK or been offered new contracts but its only connection to WFC is it used its demise to steal its league position. That is all. He could not see the difference between WFC ground-sharing at Selhurst Park (when there was still the possibility of returning home one day, albeit a slim one with Hammam as the wheel constantly trying to relocate us, which OGEM fully supported because he was a bit of a dick) and relocating permanently to another part of the country to no longer represent the town whose name it bore.

That's an interesting quote from the Spanish Prime minister. As I've said before I'm not antisemitic but I despair of the actions of the Israeli state. No they shouldn't have put up with the horrors that they indured, but nor should they have imposed the suffering on the Palestinians

“ We don't eat pigs You don't eat pigs It seems it's been that way forever So if you don't eat pigs And we don't eat pigs Why not, not eat pigs together? ”

“Those who consider waving the flag of a state to be “inciting hatred” have either lost their marbles or been blinded by their own ignominy. Lamine has merely expressed the solidarity with Palestine felt by millions of Spaniards. Another reason to be proud of him.“

OI - As for it slowing the game down, I mean come on. Haven't they got plenty of things that do that already? One more won't make much difference.
