On This Day in 1952
Tooting goalkeeper Ted Hall gathers the ball before Jimmie Smith can pounce as the Dons draw 1-1 with their local rivals in an Amateur Cup third round, second replay. "I was amongst a large group who were locked out of Sandy Lane when the gates closed half an hour before kick off before the second replay," supporter John Banfield recalled. "I ended up watching the game from the back of the grandstand of the Mitcham Stadium which was just over the road. The official attendance was 12,500 and when our centre forward, the late, great Harry Stannard, put us ahead in the second half of extra time we thought we had won but Tooting equalised with a few minutes to go."

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.

Depending on the relationship obviously
Six Million Dollar Man, I have the answer to your question about Paul Fishenden “ He’s correct , I’d had a back operation, Bobby Gould had called me in told me I wasnt in his plans ,so off to Crewe I went .Played at Huddersfield but never kick a ball top flight . I noticed the programme had a few stats wrong 🤷🏼‍♂️.”

Pow was a busy pub at lunchtime in the 80s,full of workers from the estate opposite. Last time I went there a kiwi called Terry was landlord, his 2 boxer dogs would slobber all over your jeans.

I was once a barman in the PoW, Morden Road. It was a very scuzzy pub.

One final thing about Fish, I remember when we played Spurs on a Sunday at Selhurst in 1992 I went to Crawley v Yeovil in the FA Cup 4th qualifying at Crawley’s old ground the day before and Fish was playing for Crawley, he was only 29 but his hair had turned completely white

Wimbledon v Palace at home in 84/5 was also played on on a Sunday so presumably agreed by both in order to boost crowds, we won 3-2 after scoring 3 in about 10 mins. Carlisle away in 1986 was played on a Sunday enabling me and my brother to go to Workington the day before

Morning all. StD - the PoW always only seems to open in the evening these days, and there's never anyone in it when I pass it.
