Written off as relegation fodder by the pundits and as long ball merchants by the purists, it was hard for their small band of supporters to believe. But led by the charismatic Dave Bassett, four decades ago the Dons reached the second tier of English football for the first time and not only survived but thrived. Starting their campaign with a home draw against the giants of Manchester City, Wimbledon refused to be overawed and went on to overcome league leaders Portsmouth, knock Nottingham Forest out of the FA Cup and complete a home and away double over near neighbours Crystal Palace, Relive every kick of the 1984-85 season in issue 48 of the The Historical Don including the memories of Mick Smith, Wally Downes and Kevin Gage.

On sale outside the club shop at the Crewe, Salford and Bromley games for just £2.
You protest too much Sir. It would be lovely to think of a government or a parliament without any faults but there would be at most 2 or 3 MPs sitting.

We're discussing the Chancellor of the Exchequer, old fruit, not me. You seem to be dismissing systemic abuse of expenses as mere par for the course. As 'padding'. Really?

So is that an admission you have padded expenses KD but your offence deserves to be treated less harshly?

I wonder how Nigel's Euro MP expenses would stand up to scrutiny
OI - I can honestly say I've never had an arrangement where me, my boss and another senior manager together spaffed our firm's money on bottles of wine and handbags for each other, and then we signed off each other's expenses, and then subsequently the three of us stopped working for that company, all in the same month.

Nothing fishy there
Looking at OS - East and South stands are completely sold out for Saturday. Maybe Debenture tickets not yet released? Can't believe there is not one single unsold seat in either stand.

Political appointments like Chancellor are not vetted apart from for the obvious security reasons.
Who here who can have claimed expenses at any point can swear they never 'padded' them? And do they expect to be believed? If you do fiddle expenses does that not matter with some jobs but does with others?

Reeves was spaffing money left, right and centre on booze, handbags, perfume and earrings on expenses shortly after HBOS had a £25bn bailout. Excellent work!

But perhaps not conduct becoming of a future Chancellor of the Exchequer
Of course MPs have always been a shining example on the subject of expenses. She wasn't found to have done so anyway. The thing that worries me is that she seems crap at the job, not what her past history may have been to those in a position to cast the first stone.

It's not the fact she has the job, it's the lying/exaggerating your CV and still getting a job of that magnitude. What sort of background checks take place?

I see Reform MP Rupert Lowe has recently installed solar panels at his farm in the Cotswold. In other news Reform MP Richard Tice said on Wednesday renewable energy was a "massive con" and "The British people are being ripped off by the renewables industry"

It's what people do and not what they say that matters.
To some extent the “not being an economist” aspect is less damaging to Reeves than the fact that she was investigated over her expenses while at HBOS

Who was the last Chancellor who actually had been an economist? I think she is doing a crap job but has been preceeded by a string of people doing a crap job, including one who had to pay £5 million to correct a "tax error" he had made.

What sort of vetting process takes places for you to become Chancellor of the Exchequer. Not much, by the look of it.

I think we should be worried that someone with an exaggerated CV secured the second highest job in the UK Government.

I'm sure plenty of CV ,(never had to have one😂) are exaggerated. But if you decide to be in the public eye with a top job then get found out ,you deserve the flack no matter WHAT party you support.

I'm not impressed with her performance but don't think that is because of her CV
They should drop the Dons and rename as the Milton Keynes Cow Pats.

Don't let them drop the Dons - it's an anchor round their legs and always reminds others of their origins.
