On This Day in 1960 Two late goals saw the Dons come from behind to win a London Senior Cup tie 2-1 at the Vicarage Field, Barking. Rated by many as the finest half back line in amateur football, who are the Wimbledon players wearing the numbers four, five and six? Yesterday's answer - Scott Fitzgerald.

Can it really be a decade since that play-off final victory over Plymouth at Wembley? In December 2015, while the club
was celebrating Merton Council giving permission for a new stadium to be built on Plough Lane, there was little to smile
about on the field. A long run without a win culminated in a home defeat against Stevenage after which the players
snubbed fans by missing the post-match presentations to head off for their Christmas party and goalkeeper Ben Wilson
went online to mock supporters. After a tough talking team meeting, an underperforming squad emerged into the New
Year with a new attitude and started a run that carried them to the play offs where they beat Accrington over two legs
before facing the Pilgrims in the final. The latest edition of the Historical Don has the details from every game as well as
the battle to return to Plough Lane and the memories of Paul Robinson, Andy Barcham and others.

Issue 52 will be on sale from in front of the club shop before home games.
DoughMeister - sorry which rabble, please? The DT do not run the club, so who are you referring to, please?
The football club is run by full time staff.

The far left commune running the club essentially have a business plan that is simply not working and never will. The far left and sound economics don’t go together. Look at the current Labour Govt as an example. Our only hope is outside investment, and it is possible despite the naysayers here asking “who on earth would buy into the club ?” Someone here mentioned Ken Bates. What did he do ? He put a quarter page advertisement into the FT seeking funding, and guess what ? Matthew Harding picked up the phone to him. This rabble running the show at Plough Lane need removing, and quickly.

Appiah played for us prior to playing at AFCON (albeit he was on loan with us for that first spell)

That run could well stretch to quite a few more games yet. Their next game is at 13th placed Tamworth and the next 5 after that are against teams in the top half of the table. Today, they hit the bottom of the National league on goal difference after Truro picked up a point at FGR.

And I believe that Gateshead have lost every match they've played since beating us.

@surbiton is that true that Gateshead have lost every game since beating us?

January is days away and will we enter February with a stronger or weaker squad? Will we have the same back room staff?
Papers - Kwesi Appiah played for Ghana at AFCON in 2015

Agree with Changing Person. At the moment I can't see anyone else scoring a goal. He is frustrating but he is the only one we have who could just score a goal out of nothing / nowhere. So for that reason alone he has to play.

CW - I remember Owen Harris. He was probably only a couple of inches taller than Ivor Heller.

Browne is the most gifted player we have and our best chance of a goal from him or created by him.
Yes he is greedy and moody and mostly his shots and dribbles don't become off and look awful at times but where else is the creativity

Gateshead was as clearer sign as any that our squad isn't up to. Absolutely scandalous that we lost to a team that is 2nd bottom in the National League and hasn't won a game (or even drawn) since.

I can't believe more hasn't been made of that result.

Is Toby Sibbick (playing for Uganda at the moment on 4seven - Freeview channel 49 - the 1st AFCW player to appear at AFCON ?
Uganda have as much chance pf reaching the last 16 as AFCW does of staying up

I don’t think it’s over inflated opinion. I think most realise we are poor relative to our division. However, we tie one hand behind our back and don’t give ourselves a fighting chance. That’s my frustration

The problem is we have an over-inflated opinion of our side. We are a L2 side having a season in L1. We just believe we are different from the Port Vales, Gillinghams and Crawleys who will spend a short time in L1 then regress to their mean.
30th Dec 2025 16:42:14 [82.lo.gg.ed]
Sure we need to put up a better fight and not get relegated being defensive. If we are to go down lets go swinging.
OK - stevens, bugiel & hippo up front.
