Better late than never, right? Perhaps a metaphor for, er …………. Good Morning! And welcome to the last edition of the podcast for the thrill ride that was the 2018-19 season. You might find other ways to describe this year. But notwithstanding a final show sometime over the next month, this is indeed the final regular edition of the show, as Nick and Stu look back at the Bradford draw that kept us in League One.
We didn’t script the show. This never ends well … and certainly won’t end as well as Tuesday night’s game at Luton did. And that, really, is the main topic of conversation this week!
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.
