I read both as being an eagle and the choughs being the pair of birds on top.

Carsh, not a bad call going into the Riverside Stand, c'est combien?

Alan - very true…

Loch Ness obviously...

Its pretty difficult to display a phoenix without the fire, which is either implied by flames or colours, without this they become a non-descript bird or something resembling something else in my view. Being mythical needs the myth to complete the image. Angels without wings, lock Ness without a monster, Vampire without fangs, Stadium MT full of people.... none of the legend works

Sorry Pete - never intended to upset you by making an error :(

Carsh - there were quite a few pairs of shorts on display last night that would have been best swapped for something else

Agreed, DO. The choughs appear at the very top of the original Wimbledon crest, above the double headed eagle. No choughs at all on the AFCW crest, just the eagle. Either way, claiming it's a phoenix is wrong, but considering who said it, understandable.

Apologies - it’s an eagle, though they don’t have red beaks - but then again, neither does a phoenix…

Are people getting into a flap about birds?

Pete - it is and has always been an eagle.

The Luton supporters said Cormick was very quick, so maybe a good signing albeit one with injury risks

Don't know where teacher got the idea it was a phoenix on our crest. I was always under the impression the Wimbledon double headed bird was a chough. This link can't make it's mind up between eagle or chough [Link] whereas this one says eagle [Link]

You could make a case that we played a squad team last night - two best CBs, two strikers, new Cornick, Junior and first choice GK did not start. That's a lot to leave out (for whatever reasons). Sasu started as he is fast and fit - so could hassle their defenders and make it harder for them. Stockley would have been out on his feet before HT if he'd had to get through the work Sasu did in H1. Right subs - could have been made 15 mins earlier.

No one in that pic wearing shorts either

OTD - always amuses me how formally some supporters used to dress back in the day!

Keefy-quite easy to get tickets in the Riverside stand and for a fiver extra you didn’t have to stand all match. Normally tickets in there cost 100 quid, I was expecting a uniformed waitress to bring me salmon en croute with an endive salad but sadly that didn’t materialise. Great view over London too, you could see Canary Wharf

Kite - spot on, I remember some of the Chelsea fans acted as if they’d won the actual World Cup final when they scraped past us!!

For me, the Fulham fans replicated those from Chelsea. We had the same reactions from Chelsea when they went 2-1 as Fulham at 2-0, thinking how well they'd done beating a L2/L2 side

Airsy - eewwww, I’m so glad I didn’t see that….

Naz - I wore our new light shirt, but it’s definitely cream rather than white - I don’t buy more than one new shirt per season, and my most recent blue one is probably two years old, plus I like the design of the cream War Child shirt. It generated a couple of conversations last weekend when I wore it on Saturday at Green Man in Wales, especially as the festival has its own ties with War Child - one person thought it was an Austria shirt at first, until I pointed out that it’s a phoenix and not an eagle…

A4E - not as weird as the guy half a block along from him who decided lift his shirt and play with his nipples.

Fulham fans did try "2-0 on your big day out", which didn't really hit the spot against us. Though "3-2 in your cup final" (referring to their game against Chelsea) might have been a funny retort, if they'd worked it out.

Well done to all our fans last night. (If you didn't go, Bert posted a vlog(is that the term?) last night.) But I wonder why quite a few Wombles chose to wear our white shirts against a team who play in white.
