Nick and Stu return to discuss how and why the team have gone from 12 unbeaten to winless in four, and why have the goals dried up? Alongside that we nose around Division Four, with a focus on who might still gate crash the play-offs, and which club (spoiler: we hate them) looks to be in crisis and potentially heading for the drop. We also have a fun go of MFWAJJOTM, and Stu offers a startling revelation ...

Few different topics this week! Obviously an excellent win over Bradford to kick things off, with assorted selection and tactical considerations, but then we delve into more BREAKING NEWS AUDIO as we discover another game has been moved to a 12.30 kick-off for broadcasting reasons. Dons Trust board positions and Bond repayments follow, before Nick and Stu give their thoughts on the proposal to change promotion and relegation between League Two and the National League to three up, three down. A fun MFWAJJOTM and a quick Accrington Stanley (who are they etc) round-off another fun show!

BREAKING NEWS AUDIO as Nick and Stu react to news of a new signing. Who is Osman Foyo, and what can we expect from him? Alongside that, we talk our two draws on the road from this past week, and Nick explains why Bletchley is the worst place in the world. We also discuss the Division Four promotion race, our big game with Bradford at the weekend, and 12.30 kick-offs. MFWAJJOTM rounds off another fun episode.

WE ARE BACK WE ARE HOME WE ARE ... the 9yrspodcast. Nick and Stu's first chat of 2025 reviews how the team are shaping up for the second-half of the campaign. We're well placed and have had a decent transfer window to this point, but is our record against top-half teams going to be our achilles heel? We also look ahead to Franchiseland Part Two, and we have an almost impossible cryptic clue in MFWAJJOTM. It's good to be back!

An injury crisis has struck and is causing us quite some concern. Nick and Stu discuss another chapter in the life of AFC Wimbledon, where a normal season does not exist, with particular attention to a frustrating week at Plough Lane: the FA Cup exit at the hands of Dagenham AND Redbridge, and the last-kick-of-the-game draw with Newport County. Alongside that, we talk DT elections, play MFWAJJOTM, and look ahead to Saturday's trip to Harrogate - Storm Darragh permitting.

Nick and Stu discuss the team's recent form, which has seen home and away results flip. Whilst the home defeat to Warsaw was frustrating in some respects, the win at Tranmere in the week has seen us back into the play-off places, and has made us consider our strengths and weaknesses for our promotion push. We then look ahead to the visit of Dagenham & Redbridge, and why Nick laments the demise of the FA Cup and his reaction to the game kicking-off at the random time of 7.15pm. My Father was a John-Joe O'Toolemaker rounds off a fun episode.

Our former left-back joins the podcast to discuss his time at Wimbledon, smashing the Franchise, making his debut, and his on/off move to Bristol City. Either side of that, Nick and Stu talk Barrow, Accrington, and Warsaw.

It's a very late record for this week's podcast, and there is SO MUCH TO TALK ABOUT. Why always Wimbledon? Nick is exhausted, Stu is battling a cold, but we still endeavour to bring you conversation on many topics, such as SMASHING THE FRANCHISE - AGAIN; Craig Cope's new job title; the Dons Trust Election and struggles to organise a hustings event; HOT OFF THE PRESS AFCW PLC STATEMENT; playing Dagenham on a Saturday night; and hosting Grimsby on Saturday. We also squeeze in MFWAJJOTM which is great fun. This is peak podcast with covering a breadth of topics with, we hope, honesty, clarity, and lots of swearing. And you can't teach that.

Ahead of our trip to Franchiseville on Sunday, Chris Draper joins Nick and Stu to discuss the last season of Wimbledon FC, and some of his experiences working for the club whilst the spectre of the steal loomed over our heads. It was a horrible year, but what was it like to straggle that line of fan and employee? Alongside memories of a short but impactful couple of seasons, we discuss more current affairs, chiefly the defeat to Port Vale and the Dons Trust SGM of Monday night. Chris also has a crack at MFWAJJOTM alongside some other stuff and nonsense as we bring another long but fun show to a close.

It's the 9yrspodcast vs Same Old Wombles crossover the world has been waiting for! Nick and Stu are joined by Adam, Matt, and Niall in the AFC Wimbledon podcast multiverse, and who knows what the repercussions of such a meeting might be. The boys talk Dons Trust Restricted Actions, ownership issues, the future of football finances, and what we want from the football club. There's also some football, and all the usual podcast features, including My Father was a John-Joe O'Toole-maker, and In This Week. A really fun and thought-provoking chat, and all in 90 minutes of 223 per cent unofficial podcasting!
