Therefore, at the time of his registration he was had played for no-one else *this season*...

The question asked on the form is Last club / other clubs this season which in this case should be answered as Cardiff as this was his LAST CLUB.

It makes no difference if his last game for them was 1 day, 1 week or 1 year previous to signing as if there are any outstanding disciplinary issues then they still need serving.

AFCW have no intrest in what clubs at this level think as they belive that this is only a stepping stone to greater things and that in a few years they will be in the premiership - I go with what Barry Scott says that the sooner they go up the sooner we will get away from their moaning that they are hard done by, and that their claims to be "better" and "bigger" than clubs at this level!

 

I say give them back the three points to make sure they go up and F off!!!

[Roger Rebel]

And they can have 3 points from us on Saturday.

[Brazilian Don]

Rebel, no one at the Club believes we will be in the Premiership in our lifetimes.

 

I think you will find that a lot of supporters of the Club today, were following the Club back in the 60s, 70's and 80's when Wimbledon was a non-league Club.

 

Wimbledon played in the Isthmian League until the 60s, the Southern League in the 70s and were only elected to the League in the 80's. No one in the Club - contrary to many people's belief - think we have a God-given right to play in the Premiership or the Football League, for that matter.

 

Don't forget that we are a self funded Club and, thanks to our support, hope and aspire to raise through the pyramid on merit, not by acquiring someone else's League position!

 

I don't think we are bigger and better, we have a larger support bbase and that affords us a better squad. But by no way it guarantees us results (we drew our first round matches against both Staines and Slough) )

 

Why is it that you consider what we say as moaning? All we asked if for people's support to our on line petition. You could just say "sorry, I rather not support you" or "yes, will be happy to support you"

 

I enjoy a trip to Stag Meadow. I find it one of the best non-league grounds. Your bar and club house are superb.

 

BTW, Dave Sargent is a good friend of one of my customers. He is a top lad and I was very sorry when he left.

 

I supported Altricham last season when they asked for my support.

 

What we all need is less selfishness and more unity in non-league circles.

 

Your Club and my Club will be around for a long time still.

 

:-)

[Barry Scott]

You enjoy Stag Meadow? Are you a masochist?

[GarySTFC]

You forget they've only had to come here once a season....

[Barry Scott]

true, but even that should be enough to never go back

[Brazilian Don]

Oops. Sorry for the faux pas. I meant Wheatsheaf Park is a nice ground with superb club house.

 

Sorry mate, did not mean to sound facetious.

 

Yes, I'm sorry for you for being at Stag Meadow. Not the best stadium and club house by a long way.

 

I just hope you guys can get a resolution, and soon, with the assistance of the Council to get your Club back to Slough as soon as possible.

 

I always chuck all my change into your collection buckets on my way out of the match.

 

Do you guys know a former director of Slough named Gordon? His surname escapes me but he bolsters the fact that he arranged with the council to have a piece of land put aside for your ground only to be blocked by other directors/supporters.

 

A real shame what is happening to a Club with a great history and legacy.

Can we just enjoy tomorrows game now please?

[Staines-upon-Thames Rebel]

AFCW will also wish to congratulate Accrinton Stanley for having NO points deducted and only a £12,000 fine for fielding TWO ineligible players - well done Stanley!!!!!

piss off....It is a joke that we even had three taken away, jealous pricks

[Don Juan DeMarcus]

Nope its a joke that you only lost 3. Rules are there, yo broke em and got away with it, we didnt have enough seats at Wexham Park, we got relegated from the conf after finishing in the top half, and are no falling down the league because of it, the FA just seems to have a soft (or hard) spot for you.
