In the midst of a very busy time, Nick and Stu find time prior to this week’s Dons Trust SGM to site down and shoot the breeze of all the latest AFC Wimbledon news, from the appointment of a new CEO, to our ongoing fight to avoid relegation. Also, Stu explains what he’d like to see Wally Downes do should we stay in League One for next season. It’s a bit weird.
As our relegation battle enters the final five games, we look at each and every remaining fixture of importance. We’re also reviewing the draw with Accrington and the news of Erik Samuelson’s retirement, as well as making three more cuts to our Player of the Year longlist – which is rapidly becoming a shortlist. There’s also a bonus minute of WrestleMania chat right at the end~!!
Discussing the win at Scunthorpe, evaluating the other teams in the bottom half of League One, weighing up our new club badge options, previewing the game with Accrington, and cutting another three names from our longlist for Player of the Year. Nick says we are 100 per cent certain to avoid relegation now, and keeps WrestleMania talk to a minimum – even though he is very excited. VERY excited. Actually it’s all an act. Mania is meh this year.
Meh, back to losing ways. It was nice while it lasted. But is our survival bid over, or was the defeat at home to Gillingham just a bump in the road? The League One relegation battle involves many teams with many points to play for, so there does not appear reason to be too downhearted, but we are football fans, you know …
WE’RE NO LONGER BOTTOM OF THE LEAGUE!!!! What the hell is going on?! We’re not complaining AT ALL … it’s just a very strange feeling. And with that comes the nerves of perhaps actually staying in League One next season and enjoying trips to, dare we suggest, Ipswich and Lincoln …
