On This Day in 1985
A Sheffield United defence, including former England defender Phil Thompson, were all at sea as the Dons won a Second Division match 5-0 at Plough Lane. Who was the Wimbledon player of whom the long-term Liverpool star said: "They had a little lad up front and you only had to blow on him, and he went down." Yesterday's answer - Dean Holdsworth.

Despite losing a reported £5,000 a day, key players like John Scales departing, others threatening to strike, match fixing allegations, a bust up with Merton Council over the site of a new ground, manager Joe Kinnear banished to the stand for describing a referee as a "little Hitler", a record league defeat and club captain Vinnie Jones banned for biting a journalist on the nose; a bizarre year in the life of Wimbledon FC ended with another top ten Premier League finish and the team looking down proudly on Arsenal, Manchester City and Chelsea. With a revealing insider interview with Alan Reeves, the new edition of The Historical Don looks back three decades and covers every kick of the 1994-95 season.

On sale from outside the club shop at at home games in December, THD47 costs just £2
 That’s because 70% of our turnover is spent on running the West Stand.

Apparently we are 12th in the wage table which looks like it’s £3-3.5m which is below 50% of turnover
 ‘It means that should an owner of a League One side invest £100m in their club they could only spend just over £60m on players.’

Only! 😆
 Everything is always done to protect the interests of the Premier League and all that goes with it (plus those yo-yo clubs like Dirty Lids and Narrrch)…. Fuck the little guys, but rip them off by nicking their best players for peanuts whenever you like… 😒

 JaW, I saw that and wondered if this was perhaps a precursor to Cooper's Law which we pretty much don't see any material gains overall.

 So if we sell a player for £1m we’re only allowed to spend half of that on a replacement? They’re slowly killing the lower leagues

 JAW - this may actually harm us - "Another change to the rules means that only 60%, in League One, and 50%, in League Two, of extra football income - such as prize money, cup earnings or transfer fees received - will be able to spent on player-related expenditure, whereas previously all of this money was able to be spent on the squad.

 Isn’t it nice to be going up to play away against a decent team in the playoff spots and not thinking it’s a free hit or “would be delighted with a point”? Certainly may end up being delighted with a point but it’s good to be going up there as viable competitors.

Well done to the football staff for a clear step forwards on last season. Watch us lose 4-0 now.
 If Carlisle get their finger out we could be second.

 Good luck to all those braving the weather and holiday traffic to head up to Chesterfield. You're all mad. Let's hope you get to witness a Dons victory.

 Evening all, I’m in Dublin and have tried to buy a match pass for tomorrows game but that doesn’t seem possible yet (even though it says buy a match pass here) Anyone know if it’s just a timing thing and will be available nearer to kick off?

 The massive difference between us and Exeter is Plough Lane is valued at @£30m whereas St.James Park is £5m, which sounds about right given their locations.

Makes our property depreciation much larger which is probably unrealistic. What was the site worth 50 years ago?
