On This Day in 1968
Dons' goalkeeper Frank Smith dives full length to stop Bill Denton during a 0-0 draw at Rugby Town, one of just two Southern League visits Wimbledon made to Oakfield in the 1960s. As the club struggled to survive financially in the post-Sydney Black era, four football club directors and three representatives from the supporters' club had formed a new committee. "We used to look at each other more as enemies than friends, there wasn't much love lost," supporters club secretary Ken Chaplin explained. "Now we must pull on the same rope if we are to save the club."

50 years ago, a hat trick of Southern League titles and two high profile FA Cup runs were not enough. In the days prior to automatic promotion, club chairman Ron Noades had to travel the country canvassing votes from his Football League counterparts as part of a high profile ‘Dons 4 Div 4’ campaign before the Dons were finally accepted. Relive every kick of Wimbledon’s final non-league year through the pages of the latest edition of The Historical Don with match reports and pictures as well as the memories of Noades, manager Allen Batsford and several members of his all-conquering team. On sale at the home games in August and priced at £3, it is hoped that payments can now be made via a card machine!

Bad Egg. Yes, but no! My daughter's ticket is linked to my email account, so I got an email with her points, but not mine yet. However from the time of the DT elections I was told that we'd only get one email on those for voting, so I'm guessing the sane had happened here.

Not sure she’s been in anything “big” for a while - think she was in one of the recent Scream reincarnations but I didn’t/won’t watch it. She was mainly known for roles in Heroes (never watched it) and Nashville (never watched it.) I remember her from a recurring cameo role in Malcolm In The Middle.

That’s amazing, Kite - what a person to have as one’s neurologist!! I love that he said “I'd rather be remembered for my work in neurology than my running”, because he worked in medicine for 60 years but only ran for 8 - very humble.

Shame about Hayden Panettiere - met her once a long time ago and she was lovely a really genuine person. Seems Hollywood did what it can do to young female actors.

The stadium and track where Roger Bannister broke the four min mile record is still in use. It's in Iffley a suburb about a mile south west of the City

RE this investment. Am surprised nothing has been leaked to the media about it. Would expect the club to be fairly tight lipped but that the potential investors have also been is surprising. I hope that means they are genuine and serious and in it for the right reasons.

Trigg - Roger Bannister went to Oxford University, so it’s always been the case among some athletes… The “best” schools and universities usually have great sporting facilities, plus coaching and extra sessions - it’s no big surprise that many of the best athletes come from that sort of background.

I wouldn't expect to see anyone who maybe is on the way out, to play during the transfer window. Last thing for everyone concerned would be to see them injured and the move potential, collapse.

Sounds like Reeves is on his way, so don't expect him to play unless the deal falls through. Ditto Nkeng. That would mean Johnson becomes the captain. Who takes over a vice-captain?

I hope we can find the Johnson and Seddon who played for us last season as this season's version are a downgrade.
Good to see Jaz Sawyers back in the medals after her injury.

I've not seen much of the European Athletics due to work but what I've seen I've enjoyed. The mixed 100 metres was a joy to watch with Dina Asher-Smith and Amy Hunt given a chance to shine. Dina's probably not going to get many more individual medals but she works as part of a team. It'll be interesting to see how Amy Hunt performs against non European countries in the world championships and the Olympics.

Mixed events are becoming more common and I welcome them.
The team isn’t the problem. The manager isn’t the problem.

But we do have a problem.
Maybe play Stockley and Hackford up top with Browne just behind? Could try it on Tuesday night? Also play Reeves and Sessegnon for 60 mins, as may need to start them on Saturday!

Need to try plan B, as plan A is presumably ST2 (Stockley & Stevens).
I had the misfortune to watch the Cameroon women’s team v England once they were the most desperate cynical bad losers of all time, made Wycombe look like saints
