On This Day in 1960
John Martin and Roy Law look delighted having told they had been called up to represent England in their forthcoming amateur international against Wales at Brighton - and the two men went on to star as the Three Lions won 6-1 in front of 5,649 fans at the Goldstone Ground. But interest in the home international tournament was waning - there were just 1,476 spectators inside the cavernous Hampden Park when England drew with Scotland the following March to clinch their seventh successive title.

Despite leading his side to the Ryman League play-offs in the wake of the ‘Darlogate’ affair, Dave Anderson was sacked after defeat at Bromley cost the Dons their chance of promotion. “There are three things I never thought I would be asked,” the manager said in the wake of his departure. “To switch on the Christmas lights in Wimbledon, to appear on Sky Sports News and to be told that the Prime Minister has just mentioned your name in Parliament. It’s been an honour to be involved from day one and it is an experience I will never forget.” With interviews with player-of-the-year Antony Howard and others, relive every kick of a momentous campaign in the latest edition of The Historical Don.

On sale for £3 at the next few home games. Card or cash accepted.
Not really any rumours either, which is probably better than folk pretending to be ITK, but also agreed some pre-meeting info would have been valuable especially when most members want this to work out well.

Agree with Hash - it is disappointing to not have even an abridged or redacted pre-read before the meeting.

I wonder if there will be any rumours floating around tonight about the investors and their plans. I had expected (or rather hoped) we would get something (even if basic, their identities and how much percentage they want and how much money is involved) before the meeting so we aren't going in completely blind / with no clue at all about anything but I guess there is a reason it all had to be state secret level. I mean imagine if Putin had found out.

Oh does that mean I now have to disagree with everything someone says if they say they like VAR?

 [195.lo.gg.ed] 
Seems to be how it works. Anyway... Can only see one result tonight and that's 0-1 or 1-1.
It is Mr. Burnham Trigger. So talking about VAR now counts as politics ;))

I don't know who that is but I would love to see VAR banned.

Glad the Championship clubs rejected it.
I see the guy who some think is on the Arab payroll is going to ban VAR 😂

Bus fares,vaping, all the important issues:-)
Given our last two performances I would love to see a clean sheet tonight just to prove that we’ve not lost the ability to do that - even if that means a 0-0.

Lovely weather for it as well
I will listen on radio riverside, whilst at work, not taking a night off to watch the crap which will be on show tonight

A bore draw tonight, mansfield and wycombe must be the most unattractive fixtures in league one:-)

2-1 victory tonight I reckon. 11/1 at the bookies, easy money…..
20th Oct 2026 08:51:03 
 [82.lo.gg.ed] 
Disclaimer: 2–1 Wimbledon at 11/1 is a speculative punt, not a safe bet. Only stake what you’re comfortable losing
Almost totally forgot that we have a game tonight and also have no idea where Mansfield are in the league or if we will win, draw or lose. It's been so long since we played at home.

Anyway tomorrow is more important
As the Wandle has been mentioned, what a beautiful walk that is, especially from Abbey Mills to Carshalton. Such a wonderful river to have on my doorstep and for most of my life.

Waddon Ponds is amazing as is the occasionally flooded section from Carshalton Grotto.
It’s one that stuck in my head years ago. I love etymology and the associated history. Like how Wandsworth is so named because of the same human being that the River Wandle is named after. A Saxon landowner or significant person back then.

He would have loved Wandle The Womble. Might have needed some explanation.
Lovely stuff, young Trig. Absolutely. Had to look it up but love a bit of etymology. Essential to understanding, I reckon.

Gimps please forgive this because it’s really not a political post I am majorly uneducated as to the political situation in France - but there is some irony in the fact that there has just been a curfew introduced in parts of Paris when you know the etymology of the word “curfew”.

That didn't work. One of those awkward sites that think Martians are invading the internet. Try the Hedgerows: Mapping the Gaps Phase 2 Final Report, second link down. Pollen, wildlife, managed windbreaks, it's all there Hedgerows: Mapping the Gaps Phase 2 Final Report

Ta. Forgot about the release clause. I don't think many people have seen him play since he left to be honest

"Because historic towpaths double as vital linear wildlife corridors, conservation groups and agencies like the Canal & River Trust actively "gap up" boundaries. This involves filling in bare patches (gaps typically under 20 meters) by planting dormant, native shrubs like hawthorn, blackthorn, and hazel during the winter months." says Mr Gemini

I thought Assal's release clause was triggered so we had no choice. I've not seen him play since he left but I'm not sure we were robbed on him.

Considering Birmingham paid £2m for Sam Cosgrove I’d agree with you 6mdm.

And thanks again Airsy you’ve added real value this evening. Of you could just sort out the canal tow path thing then you can take the rest of the day off.
