Your best hope is a fan wants to buy you I’d say as they will care about the team. A businessman like Ashley is just looking for their ROI.

I hope you survive. At least till next weekend anyway as I’d hate to miss our (final ever?) East Midlands Derby.

Srsly, whilst of course I hope you get relegated (cos let’s face it, all DCFC fans would wish the same on us if the shoe was on the other foot), I hope you survive and play next season. Just in League 1 though. We all need the rivalry and if Derby cease to exist, I don’t want poxy Foxes or Magpies fixtures to look forward to for our ‘biggest game of the season’.

Good luck.

Who are you and what have you done with KingK?! ;)

Appreciate your optimism... I'll try and keep a positive outlook.

No, everyone is getting paid for now, the problem is the club/administrators cannot prove everyone will continue to be paid for the rest of the season.

Also hoping Derby pull through here too. I'd personally quite like you to stay up too, I love a good East Midlands Derby. Although I appreciate that's unlikely. :lol:

There was a lot of quiet confidence building up, right until the news broke yesterday and Jagielka's contract was cancelled. We were controlling games, even against the top teams, and even seem to have remembered where the goal is. Bielik is back in training and there was news of Rooney being able to bring another player in this month.

Now it seems we'll be lucky to fill the subs bench by February and we won't even be able to pay those who still are there anyway :roll:.

I think the only solution is to merge with Notts Forest.

They could name the merged club "Notts County"

I don't see any problems with this.

5-2 down at half time! Well that sums up our defence.

Not listening to Sheffield United vs Derby but from what I can tell Derby are fully the deserving winners of this game as the scoreline shows, imagine we’ve regressed to our previous poor form after a good start under Heckingbottom.

Edit, good win for Derby, be great if they could just about stay up considering how their season has gone so far! Really hope someone comes in and buys them too.

Thanks dude :wub: sounds like you had the first half, we had the second and fortunately scored a couple of wondergoals.

We're living in a Nolan film and Notts County is just a Derby/Forest merge team living backwards through time :shock:.

Speaking of next week, I have a fiver in my wallet ready to wave at next week’s game. There’s a growing trend on Twitter encouraging NFFC fans to do this :slol:

As there's a few fans on here, does anyone know how to get in contact with the Wimbledon ticket office? The phone number listed in the site doesn't seem to have anyone answering it....

Edit: Also where do we want to sit? Not a huge choice of tickets left but I don't want to find ourselves in the middle of the Dons hardcore supporters.

The dons have hardcore supporters? I'm heading to Plough Lane tomorrow night for the first time.

How many fans do you think it would take to tip that over and carry it off?

I’m at a loss sometimes when it comes to Sheffield United, 2-0 up against a ten man Preston team, decided to go to bed when it was around 60 minutes in, thought “we can’t lose this lead against 10 men”, woke up and saw it finished 2-2 :fp: I can’t believe how much we constantly mess things up for ourselves, its like as soon as they’re in a decent winning position the players just lose the plot (and the ball clearly) :fp:

Every team has them unfortunately :x What did the Bee’s fan do to make him a hero?

In other news, I’m not sure how I feel about tomorrow’s West Country Derby. Whilst we are having a gooseberry fool season it would be nice just to beat Cardiff especially after our last game.
