Good luck to your son dubdon - wish him all the best 👍

Apologies if I offended when I posted about Furlong. I may have been under the influence. Of course it was only a small minority who criticised him overly harshly here but on other social media he was given an awful time. For example, one posting suggested he should shoot himself after a game. It’s a hard enough game to play without that level of abuse. Anyway best of luck to the real Dons this season! And yep I am his dad.

There are 23 teams that have had longer than us to get their act together and nearly all have done their business earlier, often without losing some of their key players. There are 20 or more teams with better budgets than us. Success for me would be sneaking above Exeter and/or Burton and that is what I'll judge the season on. Others will take a much more optimistic view, excellent.

Kanu playing for Charlton tonight, so surely he's not coming to us?

I’m in conflicted mood - fully expecting a drubbing on Friday night but that can’t stop the excitement of going to football again. And a proper ground as well, warts and all.

Spot on Alan

JAW, I agree to point with that, bottom line it's 11 v11 with flooks and errors all available to all. Would sooner be positive and give that energy to the team, rather than the oppo to feed off the negativity. We'll play great and lose and shit and win. My only negative comments will be at the DTB hoi paloi who fucking deserve every ounce of shit throw at them for their shithousery.

JAW, you'll get some with that ;-/

I don’t know why everyone is so negative, we still have 8 of the starting 11 that beat Ipswich and narrowly lost to Newcastle. We should be targeting top half, no excuses.

Sky televised games [Link]

Looks like Morecambe may have a solution/way out of their predicament.

Would be just our luck for Bolton to go ahead and we lose Bugiel and Hippolyte.

Bolton game on 6th Sept should be on as well as it’s an international weekend

OI, all scheduled midweek match days are shown. The grey area seems to be when it's a rearranged game where it appears to be up to the clubs to agree. Surprised Martin hasn't clarified though.

I presume the midweek games will be on Sky though I am still hoping for Martin to get me an answer on who decides not to show a midweek game

One of the plus points of being expected to struggle I guess!

The less games on Sky the better from the fans point of view so that’s good news

I was meaning the latest selections released today, where KO has moved (i.e. Mansfield is now 12.30).

Rover - the Cardiff game is on Sky, and Wycombe in Sep. Sky plus that is

Hash-Lee Brown with a 35 yard screamer? No I saw it

Looks like we've only been picked once more for Sky, home to Mansfield in December.

Talking of score predictions, Arska’s prediction league is ready for the new season. [Link]

Toots first game tonight playing c casuals £7 for 2 pints the season has started

Carsh must have got too pissed and passed out when we equalised and ended up missing Lee Brown's winner

Luton 2 Dons 3…..and then I woke up just as the final whistle went
