On This Day in 1967
Frank Smith is helpless as Billy Horton's long-range 65th minute winner sees the Dons beaten at already-relegated Bath City. One of four clubs with a chance of lifting the Southern League title on the season's final day, Wimbledon dominated at Twerton Park. But the travelling fans' hopes were dashed by a referee who turned aside two penalty appeals in the first half and then waved play on after Gerry O'Rourke's header appeared to have crossed the line. Romford's victory at Worcester saw the Essex club emerge as champions.

I mentioned Jess Barnes losing her assistance dog to cancer a few weeks ago. Unfortunately there's massive shortfall between the insurance payout and the actual bill and a just giving page has been set up. [Link]

Apparently the shortfall is much bigger than the origianal text suggests.

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]

 Yeah the option of putting Boro into the final doesn’t seem to work at all.

Thought poor Leo C was cutting a forlorn figure up front for Boro towards the end of the game. Couldn’t get the ball to stick and it ended up coming back at their defence time and time again.
 We've sent Paper's out on many a bush spying mission:-)

 Leeds just got fined Trigger, I can't see anything much different happening and I suspect nothing at all will happen till well into June.

If I was a Middlesborough player I'd probably be pissed off if kept in training for a game that won't happen.
 I was laughing spygate off but the more I read about it the more serious (and stupid) it appears. I can’t see Southampton getting booted out of the playoffs but they have taken a reputational hit. I wonder what the end result will be.

 The only problem arises because so many left leaning, “virtuous”, my shite doesn’t stink types, keep stepping way over that line, while believing that because they use the word genocide etc then everything they do is virtuous and justified.

 It’s not that fine a line really. What the state of Israel is doing is a political situation that you’d be mad not to view as out of control. Taking that a free go at any individual Jew or Jewish communities in other countries is attacking people for what they are and that’s different. It’s really not difficult and boycotting a music “competition” because the political entity, state, country of Israel is in it isn’t anti semitism.

 I think if you look at the make-up of both boards theses days they are largely run by a group of capitalists and that is not an insult, I'm sure I qualify as a capitalist.

 Not sure what happened to the GB there (Timmy's post seems innocuous enough). Getting lots of out of memory errors, so doubled the memory and restarted the server.

out today, so any similar problems may not be fixed for several hours
 Southampton were a disgrace both on and off the pitch. I hope hull thump them. Doesn’t matter anyway, either of them will be straight back down

Apologies misread rk post below. Thought he incorrectly said Israel was unprovoked, but seems was Russia and USA
 Unprovoked ! lol

 With that interpretation. DO, no-one, country or individual, can criticise or object to, Israel's brutal wars in Gaza or Lebanon, without facing the charge of being antisemitic. Am I anti-american or anti-russian for objecting to their unprovoked wars?

 Sorry for the football post, but I’m glad Southampton got to Wembley… 👏

 Knowing how the club is run by the Leftwaffe, it can come as no surprise to anyone that TTK and his wingman were allowed on site. Quite shocking when you think about it.

Mind you, a radical element left their ties and jackets off
 That relates to yesterday's OTD which has just changed

 OTD - wow, I've never seen a 1 -v- 1 game. I presume the rules were different in 1977 or did the other 20 players nip off for a quick fag?

 Meadow - a fine line. A bit like saying you still like listening to Gary Gllitter as you can separate the art from the artist.

 No problem with Merton Labour hiring our hospitality to welcome the Prime Minister providing they paid the going rate. But as a Merton resident I'd ask why they didn't welcome him to the civic centre for free.

 DO, I'd argue that they're anti Zionist ie against the actions of the Israeli state. Massive difference in my view.
