The Forest game was the one when Groves scored after a 20-something pass move wasn't it?

Everytime I watched him on motd he never quite had it. Didn't look comfortable in the prem  

As for Mansaram, can't be many players who are playing at championship level only to basically fall out of the pro game within a year


Christ you all wanted him sacked a few months ago. 6th place finish and he's now the messiah and can do no wrong  
Update:  I think I've got this right - He was the messiah. He then wasn't. He then was again. Then it turned out he actually wasnt. He turned into one big huge messiah again. Now he's not actually the messiah we thought he was . Now I'm hoping he rises again quickly

I vividly remember the free-kick he scored on Boxing Day at Pride Park when we beat Derby 3-1. I think everyone in the ground knew what he was going to do, apart from their keeper. Also memorable for David Soames scoring, what I think, was his only first team goal for Town.

Quoted from nomorefourfiveone
I would say that it all depends upon how you define 'big' - is it crowds/support or success?
If it was success, Wimbledon (now AFC Wimbledon) would be considered a 'bigger' club than many others but would typically be called a 'small' club, even by us.
I went with my perception of crowd sizes (not least because if you go by success GTFC are the smallest of that list - Barnet being top of our particular pile of poo and Gateshead going further in the play-offs than us last season) and Sunderland usually average bigger crowds than Everton. Leeds being next on the list and so on. The only one I looked up was Doncaster and, sorry to say, on my assessment based purely on crowds when in the championship and nothing more scientific than that, they are 'bigger' than us (I look forward to testing the theory when we are back in the championship!)

I think, on reflection, I will have a cry rather than a chuckle


Corrected it for you. Even the Dongs acknowledge AFCW as the 'owners' of Wimbledon FC's history.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

He was fookin great that day, he ran the game from start to finish. Crowd went mad when Digger scored.
Great day out 😊


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.
