On This Day in 1971
Eddie Bailham shoots as the Dons draw an FA Trophy third round tie against Yeovil in front of a best-of-season crowd of 3,194 at Plough Lane. Still in contention for the Southern League title, the board had mystified supporters by sacking manager Les Henley and then asked him to stay in charge until a successor was appointed. "Gates are down 20% and they may be down another 20% next year unless we do something," club chairman Stanley Jasper said as he came under pressure to justify the decision. "We must take decisive action for the long term good of the club. It would have been the easiest thing in the world to reappoint Les, but we did not think it was the best way forward."

Sticky
Humbled by Hampton, frustrated at Folkestone, beaten by Billericay and chastened at Chelmsford, the Dons' first Ryman Premier League campaign was no cakewalk. A late run saw Dave Anderson's side sneak into the play-offs where the expensively assembled Fisher side proved too strong and, a few days later, Kingstonian rubbed salt into the wound by winning the Surrey Senior Cup final. Relive every kick with the memories of men like Wayne Finnie and Antony Howard in the latest edition of the Historical Don.

Changing according to transfermarkt, as of 25th Feb Jennings has started all bar 2 of the league games he’s been with them for and came on in those 2. Are you sure about him being on the bench

Agreed. I don’t think we’re in a position to expect a win.

But it is nice to also feel that it’s not impossible.
Kitey, generally not dosed up with antibiotics, certainly not at all for 2 weeks prior to operation if possible. Its not a firm deadline but for best variety they like you to be clear to get a better grasp of the infection type. If you like that sort of thing, the orthopedic surgeon and Plastics guys are here explaining their shtick along with a study from a woman whose names escapes me, into the antibiotic research [Link] Some of it is a bit grim but I have come to like this stuff, the fact its pertinent to my situation makes doubly so for me

They were impressed that I took time to own this issue and I had seen their videos along that with the rest of the team
Trig a point on the road is always a point worth taking.

Alan, from tday, does your treatment involve "loads" of anti-biotics, or something more sophisticated?

Would be dreadful if he didn't, definitely earned a squad/team role for next season. Let him earn his stripes in a better division, I think he's going to cope well enough.

I know cash is short and we have to sell some players but we also need to send the message to the youngsters their future lays with getting game time. To many yoof get their heads turned and get screwed over in regard to getting a bigger deal, it needs a wise head now and again in saying do your apprenticeship and follow the Jack Rodoni route.
Would be a shame if we don't get to see him[Link] as a regular first team player for us.

$6m man- totally agree, I think that the problem for rugby is that the interest in professional club (as opposed to international matches or amateur playing teams) rugby is pretty small at the top level (very few crowds above 15k) and minimal once you get below that, so there simply isn’t the money in the system to sustain a proper league structure.

Without promotion and relegation, what is the point and where is the ambition? Unless you are in contention to win the league, it just becomes meaningless, akin to friendlies against the same teams year after year. Pointless and futile.

It seems a bit like Rugby League, lots of changeable criteria so mates can be let in (Wasps, Worcester) but not the Hoi Polloi (Ealing, Cornish Pirates)

In other news, interesting to see rugby union planning to end promotion and relegation to their top league. Sort of makes the point of how much bigger football is than any other sport when even one of the 2 or 3 biggest sports other can’t sustain a proper league system.

The “no politics” rule (together with the departure of certain posters) has been a major factor behind making this place much more pleasant- it would be nice to stick to it. There are a load of other places to post if you want to argue about politics.

because I'm not sure what the answer is
Maybe it’s because they are busy with season tickets sales for next season
