I wonder which one we will be playing next season.

Off to the pub to watch second half as I don't have Sky.

You're lucky. Poor poor game.
Not like ours 😄😄⚽️⚽️


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

Agree Civvy

From what I've seen neither side seem to have that something special to win it...both probably too afraid of defeat rather then looking to win

If this is representative of the top end of League 2 then I think on this showing we should be ok next season

As i am ex Royal Navy and used to live in Plymouth, and the fact that i have a house in Maida Vale London, i want to see Plymouth promoted, not to mention that for Town fans travelling to Plymouth it is a good 7 hour drive there, but Wimbledon is as most of you know with our recent 2 visits to London is only a 3 and a half hour drive, come on Plymouth Argyle, out of interest i said good morning last Sunday to Paul Weller from the Jam, he is recording a new album just up the road at Maida Vale studios.

Weekend in Plymouth would be good great memories from union street. Monroe's/blondes boobs twigs or the list could go on. Would also have to pop into the R N A and the key ham happy days? Come on Wimbledon

Well done to the Dons. Pleased for them but bit of a sodomist as I was hoping to walk to the Town game next season.

Absolutely buzzing for the Dons fans, well deserved after much longer heart ache than we had. Shame we won't be playing them next year, but the Dons v MK franchise games next season will be something else!

Hhhmmm.......... Other than you get a bit less time on the ball and we need to sign some bigger lads not sure what that tells us about where we need to improve to establish ourselves in League 2.

Well done to Wimbledon a lesson for all the Pete Winkleman's, Vincent Tans, Dayle Vince's etc etc,,,  in the game.

Tells me that PH was right to clear the decks for next season, the play was faster, the players showed more skill and were more physical than what we have been used to in the last few years.

Great to see them promoted.

It's been a great season. Leicester winning the Prem, Us going up and now Wimbledon going up too.

I am delighted by all three. I was even happy to see Hull go up because it could mean some good loan deals for us.

Yeah reckon we will need to bring in some real experience and a bit of pace up front and out wide. Not sure a week in week out 4 - 4 - 2 will work either.

I'd better get down to Kinsgmeadow sharpish and get a few in before the crowd arrives.

And Barnsley won from the last (6th) play off place too. Just shows, prior form is out of the window in the playoffs.

It depends on the form that got them into last place. Were they on the up or the down? Barnsley were definitely the form team in their play offs and Wimbledon pretty much so.

Wimbledon have had 6 promotions in 14 years which is a phenomenal record really. Just shows what can be achieved if the whole club is working at it.

Well they did start off at about the step that Gy Borough are at. Basically playing village teams. Getting crowds of 2/3000 when their opponents were often sub-100, then in the low hundreds til they got to Conference South. It enabled them to recruit players way above their opponents - one player got 90 goals in 2 seasons, and they went on something like a 74 game unbeaten run, dropping only 8 points one season.

Not knocking them mind. Great vision and effort by the supporters.
