BTW, John, I believe congratulations are in order after your recent nuptials ☺️

Wonderful to bump in to Liam at Boreham Wood to watch today’s friendly together. All the more jealous now of his wonderful Plough Lane news! We had a great afternoon together. As for the game, it was very much a pre season friendly! But it was great to see Mitch Pinnock put in another MOTM (for me) performance on the left wing: an assured d…[Read more]

The 4-1 defeat at Havant may well demonstrate that despite virtually having an entirely new squad we still haven’t learned to wake up for the start of a match… something that cost us so dearly last season.
I’ve no doubt the manner of such a heavy defeat will also have been noted by our League one opponents….
Hmmmmm….

Hi John, the picture was from Sandbanks beach from last weekend. And not going to first game so won’t be experiencing the delights of Fleetwood or Blackpool anytime soon 😏

Sadly Pete, I have selected Mitch as my Star Player in the Ivors, so he is doomed to a season of injury, ill-discipline and occasional bench-warming.

You have been warned… ;o)

After losing Dean Parrett, I’m delighted to be sponsoring the home and away socks for our new lively left winger, Mitch Pinnock. Having seen Mitch put in an outstanding performance against Brighton, with some of the best crossing I’ve seen in a long time, I’m excited to see this young lad in action hopefully week in, week out this season. I tip h…[Read more]

Liam,

I just noticed the picture attachment to your last post. Is that you at the Fleetwood home game last season? ;o)

Like many others, I was feeling rather pessimistic about a month ago about how the Dons would perform in the coming season.
However the combination of seven new signings and some decent pre-season results has been most encouraging.
So far I have only been to one game – the first friendly v Reading. It was a very entertaining game, which is…[Read more]

Great, see you there Windlesham. A lot of catching up and forecasting to do over a beer or two! The squad is shaping up to look quite exciting- younger and taller, it will be great to get a glimpse of the future on Saturday.

I saw Thomas at Woking a couple of seasons ago and was impressed even then – hopefully one for the (near) future.

Singapore – I will be there Saturday if you fancy a pre-match discussion of prospects!

The buses have been pulling in with Neal Ardley making his seventh signing in 22-year-old centre-back Terell Thomas from Wigan Athletic. Thomas has only limited experience on loan at Sutton United and Woking, so suspect the gaffer will have another more battle-hardened CB in line or, if not, then the Dons are going to be short of nous at the back…[Read more]

Ok, I am feeling reinvigorated on the Dons front after what has been an exciting, busy burst of promising signings. The young defenders and the savvy but energetic new midfielders look to be great additions. We’re going to be a physically big strong team, all over the pitch. I’m actually looking forward to the season now, and to going to the Bri…[Read more]

Have been without the internet for three weeks (!) and it’s back on today and I’m fast catching up. So it seems with Neal Ardley with three signings in a week and all of them looking sound choices. So far six players in and maybe four more to come. There is a pattern with Ardley’s recruitment: faster, industrious players and aiming to get in…[Read more]

scott wagstaff thats a quality signing, just hoping he doesnt end up like whelpdale, and hopefully he does really well for us

I’ve been winding up my wife about buying a flat at NPL. I even managed to get some of the family involved at a recent get together. She thought I was serious for awhile, but I went too far when I said I’d stay there (note the singular) every Friday night to Sunday afternoon!

It’s not nearly as good a wind up as my sister’s friend who made his…[Read more]

Hopefully not betraying a confidence before Rob has been informed, but they have bought an apartment at NPL!

It was only £10 to get in Pete, and the match was worth it. King looked solid, vocal and more Long than Clarke so far. Pinnock was also impressive, with a good cross and useful long throw. The Pig has been in the gym and Kwes looked…[Read more]

What’s the news with Liam? I’d like to pass on congratulations too, but don’t know what they’d be for!

Good to read about the win yesterday. Have been feeling rather meh about the club, only reinforced by MTM which was really uninspiring, so I gave the game a miss (the £20 price tag ridiculous for a friendly). Enjoyed instead a fantastic family B…[Read more]

Just a quick post to pass on my congratulations to Liam Nolan and Dave Kenwery – that’s going to be some housewarming party!!

Looking forward to seeing you both at more games in the future.

right back is apparently very close if thats true from the wimbledon account afcwagent on twitter then i am pretty confident that it wont be announced today but at the event tomorrow like kennedy last year, not heard anything on another striker, but ive heard maybe a centre back is close to, ive heard a name in gillinghams ben nugent but dont know…[Read more]

It’s the same every year as the Meet the Manager event approaches. The Gaffer must dread these attempts at transparency. He knows he has to deliver, but with the resources he has available, he also knows how difficult that is.

Things are looking slightly better than a couple of weeks ago though. Meades has resigned, and we’ve three new signings…[Read more]
