Pab - Not a problem I will sort out the triple posting tonight :) - I think the crowd limit was set at about 1,200 for us and there are 700 left so about 500 sold so far.

If you guys think chaos would have been caused by the cup games, spare a thought for us fans of non-league football up here. The East of Scotland League has not published fixtures more than a week in advance since the end of November and twice we have been told only on a Thursday night that we have a game on the Saturday! And you think you've got problems!

Statues hmm? How about one in Wimbleodn town centre if Koppout wants one :) :) I cna think of just the place the Tescoes balconry with Roy Law & Dave Beasant lifting out two biggest cups?(with apols to the Sotuehrn League boys). Spose the cretin wants to build a carbon copy of Wimbledon town hall for Lurch to lift the cup on to . He really knows hte price of everything and the value of nothing

- Wednesday, February 12, 2003 at 00:13:34 (PST)
Alan - I am sure the last reason that we pulled out of it was financial. The statement also mentions that the police were involved in discussions dont forget that upto 4 other teams uses K's so fitting in games at the back end of the year can be difficult. What would of normally turned into a competition we put our reserves & youngsters out in wasn't possible as they were all cup tied after playing in the competition for Netherne. As someone said if the Ditton game hadn't been cancelled several times we may have got this game played.
Paul Raymond (webmaster@itmustbedons.com)
Tooting, London England - Tuesday, February 11, 2003 at 15:23:22 (PST)
I understand what you are saying Paul but players such as Petty and Merry could have played if injuries were a worry.
Also, would it not be great to have won something (and this cup was basically our only chance)in our first year.
Teams should never pull out of a competetion and unfortuantely I feel we lose a bit of credibility. We could have found a way. 1 thing which I hope is not true, is that it was done for financial reasons. Eg Saturday games are much better supported than mid-week. Did we pull out because we wanted good league gates?

Joey: AFC Dons play their home games at Kingsmeadow Stadium, the stadium is reached by catching a 131 bus from Wimbledon Bus Stance, Opposite Wimbledon Railway Station or outside Elys/Sainsbury's. On occasion, like this Saturday, away games are All-Ticket due to the size of the oppositions grounds. A great atmosphere accompany's all games and hopefully you will be able to attend a game soon!

Alan - Dont want to sound all high and mighty or anything so an apology in advance if I do but do you know what goes into an AFC Saturday matchday? What if we had called off Saturday's league game at short notice not everyone has access to the internet not everyone is on the text updates or they dont always arrive on time. At the start of the season if most of us listed the order of what we wanted to win I think the CRBT would be near the bottom. As someone mentioned two of the CRBT games have cost us players through injuries and if that was to happen now it would be a big blow for the rest of the season. We had only planned to enter this when we thought we were going into the smaller second division if we had of known we were going to be in the CCL would we have entered I dont think we would.

I am not sure I agree with the decision to pull out of the cup. For goodness sake, we had a good chance to win it and were only 2 games from final. Thats hardly a major fixture problem compared with Withdean! Why couldnt we postpone a League saturday game and move it to midweek. Also if Waltham Abbey have floodlights, as someone said, why couldnt they play mid-week?

I am trying to track down a bunch of old toys for my sisters. I wasn't born when they played with the Wombles, but I remember seeing some in a few old pictures they are in. My family moved back to the U.S. after I was born, that was nearly 25 years ago. My sisters are still talking about those toys. If anyone knows how I may obtain some of these dolls, please let me know. Thanks... I wil be glad to buy an entire set if possible.

16 points may not be as un-insurmountable as it at first seems, as the wallies may lose their grip on the league title if there are a number of walkouts! and possible splits within the ranks!

Edinburgh don- withdean will have to play something like 3 games a week towards the end of the season. I don't think their squad will be able to cope with that to be honest. Perhaps now the wind will be knocked out of the wallies sails if players start to leave for clubs in the Ryman as rumours suggest will happen (along with their manager).

don11
- Monday, February 10, 2003 at 06:08:28 (PST)
With all this talk about statues in Milton Keynes - What would you guys have outside the permanent home of AFCW? I would probably lean to Lurch's save, but I know my Dad wouldn't be happy unless Roy Law was chosen. I can't believe the muppets have suggested Vinny grabbing Gazza as a definitive Dons moment - I know they've been taking the p**s for ages, but how's that as a final insult to our beloved club?
Edinburgh Don
- Monday, February 10, 2003 at 05:46:07 (PST)
I know people are saying we could finish second and still get promoted - but would you really bet against Withdean taking the runners up spot? Whatever happens, the Dons have done a fantastic job to be even in with a shout.

If wallingford win the league the CCL will put forward the second place team as there team for promotion (as long as they have applied and meet the criteria) it would then be down to rymans to decide.

DON4 (WHAT)
- Wednesday, February 05, 2003 at 12:42:06 (PST)
I think that anyone who strengthens the team is good news and its not like franchising because the club's home hasnt moved just the players which has happened for years. However, I think in non-league football moving from Oxfordshire to Surrey will not happen on mass. Part time players will have jobs, wifes, girlfriends and the practicalities of part time football means that geographically mobility is decreased.

Chris - I think what John means is that Sim is at Kingsmeadow before games for the academy and then watches games when he not playing or gets back early from Netherne games.
Paul Raymond (webmaster@itmustbedons.com)
Tooting, London England - Tuesday, February 04, 2003 at 11:44:12 (PST)
Sim Johnston is class ! But I can't remeber the last home game he played in, must be a long time ago. Or around the time Mark Nicholas joined us.
The last time he played for us away was I think against Merstham. Hardly a regular to date. Come on Terry give him another chance.
Chris Carroll (sema4signal@aol.com)

Now that Steve Lawson is out injured and Tony Readings has left, how about bringing back Sim Johnston into the side.

SURREY, ENGLAND - Monday, February 03, 2003 at 11:45:47 (PST)
John, It's been formally confirmed today by AFC Wallingford - I think the rumours first started 4-5 days ago. There's also rumours about Dave Crowdy and whether he will be getting the vacant AFC Newbury job (clearly if he goes, one would suspect he will take most of the current players with him?). I guess the news most Dons are waiting for will be on the Ryman re-structuring and, in particular, whether the 3rd place team can go up.

- Friday, January 31, 2003 at 11:08:43 (PST)
Paul, In full agreement but feel the concern is not with the last 2 matches and yes 3rd before the season started would eb ok but the previous 6-7 games before we could have lost many of them and having got into the position they were in before Christmas it would be a shame to lose it now down to an attitude problem. Agreed they have had to gel quickly but performances like away to Frimley and Farnham have just not been repeated. Having already travelled over 3,000 miles this season to follow the team I would hate to think that many of the players do not have the same commitment.

Trying to put all this into presepective 8 months ago we had nothing now some people aint happy because we have lost 2 games in a week. If it was a simple case of buying players Wolves would have been champions of europe for the last 10 years!! The thing about the likes of Wallies and W2K is that they have a settled squad that has played together for a number of years. We have bought in a couple of players from Higher leagues 2 from T&MU. We might not end up winning the league but if at the start of season people had said we would be in with a chance of finishing 3rd I think most people would of been happy. - To TFB I wasn't at the game but well done on your victory. - And as for TE going dream on.

Tooting, London England - Friday, January 31, 2003 at 03:31:45 (PST)
So now I know how we get people to discuss the team on the site!! Just suggest Terry should go. Recently it has been nothing but Karaoke and what diseases we all have but at last we are discussing the team. Of course Terry should not go but as I suggested after recent performances the team is far too complacent and never start to play until 30 minutes in or whan 0-2 down, whichever comes first. The players see 1,300 fans away (higlighting how ridiculous the official attendances at Frimley & Farnham were)and feel far too comfortable. We have seen all the players have some very good games. The passing has become dreadful with Passmore, Daley and Bolger the biggest culprits. Oakins and Sidwell keep putting these feeble crosses in from just over the half way line AND NOT on the line itself and without Cooper we cannot hit a Barn Door. The Attitude of the Players HAS to match that of the Fans, and we must finish at least 3rd. After all most of the players have come from higher division teams, they are fit and they have the support so it can only be the ATTITUDE.

I think that we as fans should get behind Terry and the team and try and put these bad results behind us. I still reckon that we can finish either 2nd or 3rd. which can't be bad for our first ever season in football. It may be a long hard road to get into the top flight but with a positive attitude and hard work from the chairman down to the ball boy and ourselves the best and most welcoming fans in the country we will get there. so come on you dons fans get behind Terry and the players and show them that they have our support and best wishes for the fight.

No way should Terry go - he is doing a great job

on terry: he has lengthy experience in non-league football so to say he should go is a load of c***. we have only started the long road to league football status and need experience b4 calling 4 heads to roll. we need stability & common sanse to prevail otherwise our team will undoubtedly go the way of many teams in recent football fallout.

Odds are when we get to the ryman better players will come calling ,because the combined is too low for them i think at present, and some may be waiting to see how we do before commiting,hopefully .we are a good team not yet a great team

I agree with papadons we do lack quality in certain areas we used our get out of jail card to often and now we are paying for it.and i also think its not to late to save the season.Lets get behind the lads on saturday and give them a lift.

I think we should be attracting top non league players and it isnt happening we lack a decent striker cause if cooper not scoring then no one else does we lack quality through out the team and it was obvious last night.its not to late to put it right if Terry acts quick.we can still get second spot and hopefully a Rymans place.lets not kid ourselfs we have a great team.

No terry should not go, what money ? we as yet do not pay clubs transfer fees or player wages,when we do then we can judge, we all want to win every game but this does not happen {cant explain wallingford though :( },this season i always felt was to finish as high as possible and i reckon thats 2nd,and thats good by anybodys standards ,and will probably still get us up ,that said its next season wherever we are that will be the crunch time for all concerned !

As we slide out of promotion places should Terry go.We should be top with all that money.He clearly doe's not know the non league game and can not encourage better players to come here.we should go up this year,it is a must.

I think last nights game was our worst performance since Withdean. Talking to a couple of people on the bus back to Wimbledon, they thought this could be the start of a slide, it was their thought that we have not played as well since our drumming from Southall in the PCC.
I hope that this is not the case, but we have to be extra aware as Withdean are closing in on our league position and they still have several games in hand.

For the last 8 years I have driven past Waltham Abbey FC every day to work. Never meant anything until now!! It seems like the usual white fence with possible small stand although I have never been in it. The nearest train station is Waltham Cross I think but it will be a long walk. Its right by M25 so if you have a car it could be the best way.

I've just looked on the Diss Town website and it is one of their players, Scott Lindsey, who sustained a suspected leg fracture during the second half of the game. It was 0 - 0 at half time and the incident occurred after Diss had gone 2 - 0 up.

Paul, were you going to post a message from Danny Roberts, or have I missed it? Talking of past players, I thought the John Scales piece on the official site was particularly poignant. In fact, I don't mind that he virtually never touched the ball when he came on as sub in the '88 final any more.

Re Withdean, I think that's 28 CCL games left in 97 days (25/1 - 10/5) or two games a week AND there still in the FAV and Lge Cup. I guess it really depends on their ability to avoid injuries & suspensions, and when/if these start to bite, they could go the way of Ash (now no longer a threat to AFC Wimbledon!!)

Re Kormaca Don...the capacity at HW can reach about 3000...this would be if we had the support the new Don,s have..we don't I'm afraid, we are by far the smallest village in the combined counties league but you will find out Saturday we have the biggist heart and this will extend to all your supporters.As we are expecting alot more away fans on Sat, we have been restricted by the police to 2000? The AFC site says the capacity is 4,000, and if all supporters were friendly to each other then 4000 is about right ...I think on the day the police were right with 2000...Our clubhouse will be open to all and we have also a beer tent so no one will lose out..hope you can all make it.I had such a great time at your place..just ask Trev & Ivor

They will also be on sale at the Frenford game on Wednesday night.If you have ticket problems contact AFC Dons secretary Trevor Williams. Hell put you right. Looking forward to a fantastic day...we would like to return the hospitality we received at your place...and not just by beating you 3-1..!

Does anyone know what the real capacity restriction is at HW? The AFC site says the capacity is 4,000, but I can't believe that and would think it nearer 2,000 - eg a field surrounded by a white fence with a small stand and no terracing? Like many, I haven't purchased a ticket and tend to leave it to the day this time of year, what with colds/flus and postponements!

I have just read the e-mail from Richard B re the Hartley Wintney game. I am the vice chairman of HWFC. The game is ALL ticket on the advice of the police. This decision was taken before the rearrangement of the Aldershot game or Readings cup exit. Tickets are on sale at our Clubhouse every night this week. The Club can be contacted on 01252 843586 after 7pm or on mobile 07860 729608.
I have been in contact with Trevor Williams your secretary and he is fully aware of the situation. Please contact Trevor if you have queries. Please accept my apologies for any inconvenience or distress our lack of information may have caused

Paul - I have just spoken to the Hartley Whitney Secretary and have to say this is pretty pathetic. He thinks that it IS all Ticket and that Wimbledon have 1,500 tickets being sold to fans! He is worried that both Reading and Aldershot have no game on Saturday and he does not want those fans coming. He now says that he wants all Dons fans to have some identification or he will not let them in. As I have said all season why the hell these people do not finalise the arrangements a month before hand I do not know. I have had to tell him to ring the Club!!!!!

Oh damn, you mean we missed some of the players, Paul?! They obviously came in once they knew that I'd gone(!) Oh well there are always other times. I keep meaning to find Ivor's email address as I had a couple of ideas to try and raise funds, one of these being more karaokes but was too shy/embarrassed to say so at the meeting. For one thing, I think that if there was more notice and they were especially arranged as AFC fund raising events, karaokes might be met with more enthusiasm - or am I talking out of my backside?(!) No derogatory comments, please(!) We need more fun events with a D at the end ie fund - or does anyone disagree?
