AFC Wimbledon

A chance of three points definitely but wont get the space and time afforded to us against the Villa kids. Farman back will help but will we find the back of the net more than once in the league for over a month? Cant blame injuries now so team need to go out and do the business.

His behaviour can be strange without needing to sniff anything. ;)

Know this should be to our advantage but surely highlights the double standards in todays game. Teams at our level having to play without a couple of key players while the Premier League with their bloated squads is cancelled completely (creating a fixture congestion they will then moan about). It also brings into question why they can't utilise those squads when with no redress they are allowed to field weakened teams in Cup competitions.

We are also without 2 top strikers Acquah & Garner and possibly Spence so Wimbledon missing a couple of players won't make much difference.

I think the Wombles missing a couple of strikers will make quite a difference as a full first team is definitely a better squad on paper than ours.

They are a good side with serious play-off ambitions. They will come forward and probably will not park the bus. Ironically we seem to compete better against the better footballing sides. So it is a pretty good time to play them and I am hopeful.

In the league Garner has 3 & Bugiel 2. It's Matt Stevens tomorrow that is a threat for them with 5 goals so far this season

Crazy if he persists with a lone striker again tomorrow,if we go behind we have no chance with one up front on his own.

Agree but he won’t change it.
