On This Day in 1980
John Leslie celebrated the signing of a new three year contract by scoring the winner in a Fourth Division game at Halifax Town. A dour contest was nearing its conclusion when debutant Dave Hubbick crossed the ball and the club's longest serving player fired the ball home from inside the area. 17 year old Glyn Hodges became the second newcomer to be introduced at the Shay when he came on as a substitute with ten minutes left.

I don’t recall having seen a link to this on here but there is a Just Giving page been set up for donations to the memory of Jack Lonergan, who tragically collapsed and died shortly after arriving home after the Bolton game. Jack was one of our own - Yellow & Blue through and through and such a lovely young man. RIP Lonnie [Link]

RIP Callum. Incredibly sad news. First knew of him as “Scotch Corner” in Dons Outlook. Always a wave & smile to the press box across from the PL seats at KM. So selfless, determined, philosophical & brave in the face of his illness, particularly around if he’d live to make it to game back at the Lane. He did it. 💙💛🙏🏻X

I know the premier league is pretty much despised on here but its great looking back on the Manchester United v Arsenal rivalry of the late 90’s on Fever Pitch.

Did anyone see the Roma goalkeeper taking out the Lazio player? Almost Battiston/Schumacher class and as the goal was scored no action.

I think Rotherham is a reasonably decent away trip, nice compact town centre stadium, which is rare for a new build, the Cutlers Arms is a great pub and you’ve also got Sheffield in easy reach. I think Scunthorpe tops the list in terms of tired mundanity when it comes to lower league away days
