    EP388: AIN'T GOT NO MONEY

    Nick and Stu return to pick the bones out of the disheartening defeat to Doncaster. Other alliterative phrases are available. Alongside that, there is a review of the comings and goings of the past week, from Harbottle to Tilley to Nelson, and what that suggests for the shape of the side headed into what is looking a nervy second-half of the campaign. A glance around League One, talk of bringing cash back to Plough Lane, and a different game of ROFHOG complete another fun, despite the circumstances, episode. Oh, there’s also a look ahead to the trip to winless in 10, on the back of seven straight defeats, Rotherham …

    EP387: HURT OR TAKE HEART

    We're back! Nick and Stu return after a winter break to evaluate how the squad is shaping up ahead of a tough second-half of the season, following a dodgy spell of just one win in 11 games. We review the games with Stevenage, Exeter, Leyton Orient, and Wycombe; mourn the departure of Danilo Orsi; weigh-up the pros and cons of starting Junior Nkeng; and wonder whether our forward options are strong enough. There's also the usual rages against the dying of football in the modern day, and a fun game of ROFHOG. We finish with a look ahead to Saturday's huge game with Doncaster.

    EP386: DOWN THIS ROAD BEFORE

    Nick and Stu are here for the second time this week! This time they review the dour 1-0 defeat at Exeter, and the squad's illness and injury problems, but there are also some fun conversations to be had surrounding kick-off times, substitutes, and the third tier. What would their team look like if only three subs were allowed, and everyone was fit? There's also a more serious reflection on the fan ownership debate, whilst a festive ROFHOG brings some levity to proceedings. They conclude with a quick look ahead to Saturday's visit of Playersfield.

    EP385: A VERY PLEASANT SIDE TO YOU

    Nick and Stu return to discuss the draw at Huddersfield, preview the trip to Exeter, play ROFHOG, and shoot the breeze on a variety of footballing topics, including sub rules ...

    EP384: SOME PEOPLE REALLY NEED IT

    It's time to be positive! Sadly, we fail this week as Nick and Stu review another defeat, look ahead to what looks like another defeat, and talk about the perilous financial position of the club which, in the words of the Dons Trust, is currently unsustainable. Still, good news about the chocolate oranges. And at least we have a fun game of ROFHOG to play, and some chatter around merchandise, advertising boards, and goalkeepers to keep you entertained. Yes it's an extender, so get comfy!

    EP383: ANYWHERE ELSE BUT HERE

    Well we have to talk about it, however painful. The 5-0 defeat at bottom of the table Peterborough was a deflating experience on top of a recent run of poor form, but were there positives to take from it? Well, in truth, no. But we try. Nick and Stu also play a new game: Dons Trust rule-making Tombola, in which new regulations are seemingly plucked at random from a National Lottery machine. There's also the usual weekly game, ROFHOG, and a quick nose around the third tier as per usual. Also some musings on Jason Euell, Southampton, Danilo Orsi, and girlbands.

    EP382: FEELING WEAK

    Picking the bones out of the FA Cup exit to Gateshead. There's not a great deal much more to say, but in typical style, Nick and Stu try to cushion the blow of a poor defeat by touching on many varied subjects around the football world, and play a fun new game of ROFHOG. There's also the weekend trip to Peterborough to preview - yay!

    EP381: LOOKIN' FOR SOME HAPPINESS

    Well Burton might have tricked us, but now it’s time for Nick and Stu to treat all Wimbledon fans with a Halloween edition of the podcast. And by Halloween edition, we mean the normal podcast which just happens to be released on October 31st. We beat Middlesbrough on this day in 2000 … Halloween wasn’t really a thing back then. ANYWAY, the defeat to Burton, Omar Bugiel, Aron Sasu, a look around the club including the Youth and Women’s FA Cups, a preview of the game with Gateshead, a glance at the third tier, and a classic ROFHOG all feature this week – and we have outtakes as well for those that want some extra bonus content!
