In a development that manages to be a surprise and inevitable at the same time, Drewe Broughton has gone back to Lincoln. And in a few offices and living rooms across South West London, an early glass of champagne was raised. DB’s signing has to be one of the most surreal ones ever performed in
OK, Pearl Necklace 1 Diamonds 0 got a bit hairy towards the end, and we still can’t play properly for 90 minutes, and we relied on Seb Brown yet again, and… But we got the three points, and at this stage of the season it’s easy not to care how. The sad thing about this
You have to say, the striker situation at AFCW has got to the stage where it’s started resembling the drummer auditions in Spinal Tap. Has a team pushing for League football ever had the forward situation we have right now? With this in mind, one could have felt legitimate trepidation when earlier this week TB
We’re now approaching that weird purgatory part of the season when you don’t have a midweek game and it feels a bit like the season is already over. It isn’t of course, and things may yet turn out to be very important. In the meantime though… – It seems that Crawley has been well and
So then. Champions Elect 3 Playoff semi finalists 1. Doom, wrist slitting and all ovens within a 15 mile radius turned off, lest a Womble or three decides to put their head in one. If truth be told, I’m in two minds about this one. For the first 20 minutes and the last 30, we
Up until a couple of weeks ago, the game at Broadfield tonight was shaping up to be the ultimate Clash Of The Season™. The nouveau riche of Crawley Town against the humble hard workers of AFC Wimbledon. Good v Evil. Light v Dark. Wrong v Right. Competence v Non League football… Amazing what a set
While thinking what angle to approach Babies 1 Kiddies 2, I ended up watching Yernited v Arsenal in the FA Cup. As you do. As I watched how the Gunners threw away yet another trophy run, it occured how fragile they looked, how they have no bottle or mental fortitude to push on, and quite
After what seemed an eternity, yesterday we finally received the full results of the DT’s “where do you want us to be?” survey. Helpfully in PDF format, I think it must be the first time since 2002 that the supporters have been properly asked about our future, which seems quite an extraordinarily long time. Sadly,
Christ, do I really have to write something about the St Albans Handy game? I think my mental capabilities of doing just that have been drained after writing the Big Tissue last one. Guess this is what it feels like to be one of our players right now. But I shall dig in and be
Do not adjust your monitor, this really is an SW19 update… Although all games from now on come under this category, tonight’s game is going to be one that will ultimately define our season. On the balance of things, we should win tonight. We’re (still) top of the league, and our West London opponents (they’re
