AFC Wimbledon

From www.afcwimbledon.co.uk

 

"Surrey County FA has written to the club to inform us that at a meeting of their Challenge Trophies Committee last Wednesday they decided that "AFC Wimbledon F.C. (sic) will be expelled from this season's Surrey Senior Challenge Cup ...... No monetary fine to be imposed on AFC Wimbledon F.C."

 

The decision is said to be final and binding, which means that there is no right of appeal."

 

Don't know if that means that we will be put back in and have to play Met Police though, will be interesting to see what happens. Am very suprised that Surrey FA did this, we haven't put an appeal in against it.

Is it not all part of this Jermaine Darlington thing with them?

[Ex EL_Gaffer]

Yes it is mate

[Krooner]

Just had a look at the Surrey FA website. Would presume that if they are going to reinstate teams then it would be Met Police. I think either that or give Egham Town a bye.

[Ex EL_Gaffer]

Would find that strange if so as Jermaine Darlington played 90 mins against us in our game so it would seem a bit unfair

[Krooner]

But if you imagine the FA Trophy. They would have to go back about 5 rounds. All gets a bit much then.

[Ex EL_Gaffer]

Yeah we'll see. Not too fussed either way, will see what happens...

Don't hold yer breath.......

Our secretary has had a call from Met Police to say that we have to play them in the SSC now. I presume the winners then play Egham.

 

Bit unfortunate for AFC, their secretary is a top bloke, but nice to be back in the competition
