And so the best-kept secret in football gently ease into 6th place (of the fourth tier of the English game). If winter comes can spring be far behind. #COYD #AFCWimbledon #LeagueTwo

Abingdon Marina to The King’s Head, Sanford Lock. There and back 16 miles. The latest leg in my epic, multi-year, multi-stage odyssey to the source of the Thames.

Idle, discoursing men, men of no calling, of no profession, of no sense of other men’s miseries… Men that sucke the sweet of the earth, and the sweet of other men; men that pay the state nothing… that make themselves pipes to receive and convey and vent rumours…

Mad scenes at Plough Lane yesterday as the best-kept secret in English football concede a late equaliser against Barrow but (just about) retain their top-three spot in League Two. If winter comes can spring be far behind? #COYD #afcwimbledon #efl #barrow

And so the best-kept secret in football take a hop, skip and a jump into third place (of the fourth tier of the English game). If winter comes, can spring be far behind?
