Hi John and Rob,
I expect to be at the ground about 1.45 but need to go inside about 2.30 as I am in the Rygas.
Let’s hope we are out of the bottom four by 5pm tonight 🤞

Friday’s game is a MUST WIN. Bradford will want to go down with a bang – so those thinking 3 points in the bag, think again! W and needing 2 wins we’re not likely to get much at Luton so this Friday is crucial.

Rob/Liam,
I’ll be getting to the ground early on Friday if you want to have a pre-match chat over a beer?Respond on here or give me a call on +44 7710142074.
Three points would be massive, but I’m not sure our young and nervy defence will be calm enough to keep out a Rovers side playing well away from home.

The Dons were fortunate to leave Oxford with a precious point in a scoreless draw. It was down to Aaron Ramsdale with a couple of outstanding critical saves against a better Oxford team that earned the Dons the point. In my first of five games over here, it is plain to see how important Rambo is to Wimbledon’s survival hopes. The 532 formation put…[Read more]

As everyone has already said on other forums, I wish to thank Erik Samuelson for all his hard work as CEO and especially for turning the dream of a return to Plough Lane into a reality. Hopefully I will be able to thank him in person at some point in the next two games. COYDs

Liam/Rob, sadly I won’t be able to make the Oxford game due to a family commitment, but I’ll be at the Bristol Rovers game on Good Friday.
Can we make a plan to meet up pre-match to chew the fat – it would be great to catch up?
I’m doing nothing before the match so post on here if you can make it. I haven’t seen Singapore for a while, so…[Read more]

Yesterday was the first of three games that I will be seeing in the hope of witnessing the Great Escape. The Dons started very brightly and we’re all over Stanley for the first 20 minutes so it was no surprise when the Pig scored after a good cross by Seaton. However the players then went off the boil and yet another awful piece of defending by…[Read more]

There has definitely been a change in mood around the club over the last couple of months. Wally and Glyn seem to have got the side more organised and more enthused. The players can see a way out of the pre-Christmas mire and they are intent on survival. The supporters are buying in to the attitude they are seeing on the pitch and are getting…[Read more]

Hmmm… My response to onyadon’s question could be “Ask me that when we have 51 points…” but there’s no doubting the team have a more positive outlook these days. Without mentioning names (they are routinely missing from the team sheet or have gone to foreign climes anyway), WD has clearly either sussed out what and who makes the squad ‘tick’…[Read more]

Only a win against Accy will make me think the great escape is on. Lose that game, and we’re right back in the steamy smelly stuff. If results go our way, and only the Walsall v Oxford game looks dodgy, we could be out of the bottom four. A win on Saturday and five points from the Wycombe, Oxford, and Bristol games, and we’re on the mystical 50…[Read more]

Plenty to be optimistic about our survival chances after the great win at Scunthorpe. With six games left Wimbledon are only in the bottom four on goal difference, with some winnable games coming up. I make it that the Dons need 9 points out of the remaining 18 to stay up.
Given that the Dons have won 5 of their last eight games and are 4th on…[Read more] -

A most interesting result at Scunthorpe and a welcome brace from Hanson. What are we setting up here: abject failure at Accrington (where?) and Oxford? If this is some stirring of life into this moribund season, then it is going to keep the fans coming through the turnstiles for the weeks to come. A win at Accrington and we really can start…[Read more]

When we went 1-0 up on Saturday, it seemed to me out game plan changed. We sat back and let them come to us. If that was the intended tactic, it failed miserably.
Ramsdale’s mistake was the game changer, something he immediately acknowledged. He held his hand up to the players and importantly to the fans. Respect! Even after the Giils equaliser,…[Read more]

A few key points IMO from Saturday’s match:
1. Having gone 1-0 up and having looked very good for the first 30 minutes, we seems to lose focus on the basics that had got us the previous four clean sheets. When Gillingham scored the equaliser it had been coming for a while as we had lost focus defensively.
2. Absolutely key to the result seemed…[Read more] -

Another massive game for us today (aren’t they all from here on in?) The match has been sold out since the start of the week and the club have taken the unusual step of telling supporters not to bother going on the waiting list for tickets as it is too long!
The atmosphere should be great, but the match is too tight to call – we have a solid…[Read more]

I think we can take it after three straight wins (all clean sheets) that the Great Escape is ON… it may not take us over the finish line, but it is with great relief and delight to write that the Dons are giving it a huge crack.
Look at this video to realise this new-found fighting spirit within the ranks. Toby Sibbick sprints around 30m to…[Read more] -

Do I hear the theme from the Great Escape playing in the background? It certainly feels that way after another three points and another clean sheet.
A horrible gusty day and an uneven pitch made passing football difficult – basically playing into our hands. Southend were poor and obviously lacking in confidence after a poor run of results. We…[Read more]

Remarkable. I look forward to reading your match reports and opinions. Where did all this fightback come from? Is it all that wet weather and impending economic demise? Whatever it is, Wally the Gaffer needs to bottle it and dispense it at will over the last few games of this dreadful season. If the players could spend the off-season with a hod,…[Read more]
