Nick and Stu return to give their thoughts on the collapse of the SSC investment. What does it mean for the club? What exactly is our financial position now? Should we still have met this past Tuesday? Are there other investors waiting in the wings? And why are so many in the fanbase at each other's throats? So many questions - sadly, so few, if any, answers. There's also a Dons Trust election looming, just to add to the fog of war. Alongside an extended chat about our impending doom, there's the joy of an FA Cup exit to briefly reflect on, and an important game against Blackpool to preview. Ticketing systems, FA Cup replays, and The 50.1% Club complete another weird and wonderful week in the world of AFC Wimbledon.

Nick and Stu return to discuss the 2-1 defeat at Stockport. What went wrong? With no wins in seven (proper) games, pressure is starting to rouse on Johnnie Jackson, but is this fair given the level of opposition faced, our performances on the whole, and the injury issues that continue to plague us? Alongside the football chat, there is inevitable discussion of the proposed investment, with some issues concerning the reliability of the voting system. The 50.1% Club returns, as does Room 101, and we also discuss films! Stu also manages to create a new catchphrase for the show. It's a belter.
EP407: 9yrs vs SOW: THE REVENGE

The boys from the Same Old Wombles podcast join Nick, Stu, and George Jones to discuss ... well, do we need to tell you what? The Sloane Street Capital investment is our sole topic for this week's giant combined super-podcast, with everyone speaking openly and honestly about their feelings around the deal, including talk of Julia Roberts, Farnham Town, and how much we all hate Chelsea.

Thankfully, the introduction of our new lords and masters has allowed Nick and Stu to talk about something other than events on the pitch. What are our thoughts on our proposed new investors? Do their plans look okay, or are there some issues that need to be addressed? And more importantly - which fictional villains do they most resemble?! Sadly, we do have to get onto the subject of consecutive heavy defeats, and why performances have been so bad this week. The 50.1% Club and a look ahead to the visit of Wycombe Wanderers complete an interesting week.

It's been a busy week in the world of AFC Wimbledon. Nick and Stu take the time to review the defeat at Plymouth; discuss new investment; explore the 'State of the Game' report, and the precarious situation football finds itself in; preview the trip to Sheffield Wednesday; throw something into Room 101; and play The 50.1% Club.

It’s the big ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION of the 9yrspodcast, as we hit the incredible milestone of a 404th episode! As part of this episode spectacular, Nick and Stu discuss a not particularly memorable but none-the-less newsworthy 1-1 draw at Cambridge. How well did we adapt to the litany of enforced changes to the squad, and how much better did we cope thanks to the talents of Joe Bursik and Jayden Stockley? With a break in action due to international call-ups, we also take a chance to reflect on the start to the season, with divergent views from the fans adding to the discussion. Thoughts on Manchester City and the little third tier action taking place this fortnight complete a fun show alongside the usual features of Room 101 and The 50.1% Club – and there’s also a lot of rambling, and Nick gets very camp as well.

Kevin Borras joins Nick and Stu to discuss news of a new investor, and its implications for the future of "the football club". Is Kevin wedded to fan ownership, or is it time to drop to 50.1 - and below? Alongside the thought-provoking discussion on the state of the Wimbledon financial nation, we review the draw with Milton Keynes, and the 1-0 win over Doncaster from the previous week. Despite our success early season, are we set up *too* defensively? And did the move to a Thursday night affect the less raucous atmosphere? There's talk of Dujuan Richards, Joe Bursik, and the women's team as well, and then Kevin gets the opportunity to put a range of things he dislikes about modern football into Room 101. The 50.1% Club and a look ahead to the trip to Cambridge complete another fun show!

A WIN! We haven't had many of late, but now it's two out of three in the league, and wasn't it satisfying to take three points, along with a clean sheet, from Hayes Lane? Nick and Stu discuss the tactical tweaks Johnnie Jackson made to secure a much-needed, morale-boosting victory at a ground that holds many mixed memories for Dons fans. However, the club's finances never stay out of mind for too long, and another Bond update has got us thinking about what the future holds, and whether taking loans secured against Plough Lane is a sensible option. The 50.1% Club, Room 101, and the usual glance around the third tier completes a fun show, with some positive thinking ahead of the visit of Doncaster Rovers on Saturday, at 3.00pm, as it should be.

Reaction to a mixed week: a first league goal and win against Wigan; some promising recruitment at the end of the transfer window; but then a most disappointing humbling at Burton Albion. Nick and Stu pick the bones out of both games, and question if our recruitment has left us with more problems than solutions. There's also all the usual alongside that, including The 50.1% Club, Room 101, a look around results and fixtures in the third tier, and a quick preview of next Monday's most anticipated return to Hayes Lane.

Playing on a Thursday messes up podcast schedules! But Nick and Stu have managed to arrange their lives around the League Cup defeat at Fulham to give their reaction to the events of the evening, which included the return of Junior Nkeng to the first-team squad - and the implications of that - and thoughts (and some irritation) about fans' reactions to the defeat on and off the pitch. Alongside that is talk of the arrival of Harry Cornick, the midweek absences of Marcus Browne and Ryan Johnson, and the ongoing plight of Aron Sasu, as well as thoughts on how we approached the game with Reading. Transfer window thoughts, upcoming games with Wigan and Burton, reactions to changes in the fanzine at Plough Lane, and The 50.1% Club round-off another fun show.

Things feel a little unsettled at the mo, don't they? Defeat at Huddersfield isn't anything to obsess over - it was expected given respective resources - but with the squad still being tinkered with ahead of the end of the summer transfer window, it feels the playing staff is a little unbalanced and we seem unsure of exactly how the system works with the personnel available. Nick and Stu discuss comings and goings alongside the opening day defeat, whilst there's also talk of the new ticket priority system, stadium admittance policy, and transfer fees. There's also a new 50.1% Club, and a look ahead to Saturday's game with Reading. Plus, which song is going with Nick to a Desert Island?

A season preview edition OF SORTS, as there has just been so much news this week that Nick and Stu have way too many other things to discuss - including competitive football as the season got underway with a League Cup tie, something we're not sure about either, and not just because we endured a turgid, albeit eventually winning, performance against Newport. Alongside a review of that game, we talk Fulham; fixture scheduling and TV nightmares; financial pressures with Bond payments desperately needed; social media views of Aron Sasu; the possible departure of Junior Nkeng; and the PFA seeking higher (!!) wages for lower league footballers. There's some brief predictions about who will finish at the top and bottom of the third tier this campaign, and The 50.1% Club returns as well. A fun show as always!
EP397: IT'S THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN

Welcome to the new season of the 9yrspodcast! Yes, Nick and Stu are still here after 11 SEASONS of the show, and kick-off Season 12 with a round-up of all the news around the club over the pre-season period. We look at a couple of the new signings, lament a couple of departures, and pick who we think might also be on their way out before the summer transfer window closes. There’s talk of kits and bonds, sponsors and coaches, as well as the introduction of a new feature, and, of course, a new game! All completed with a look ahead to the League Cup tie with Newport this weekend. A fun start to the new campaign!

With safety secured, Nick and Stu relax a little into an unscripted edition of the show, in which where the podcast goes, nobody knows ... Amongst our ramblings, there's talk of the win at Wigan, how subs changed the games, whether certain players are likely to remain with us next year, and how the goalkeeper situation shapes up next term. There's also a look ahead to the final weekend in the third tier: who will take the final relegation place, and which three clubs will join Bolton in the playoffs? There's also a ROFHOG, and the more serious issue of the Saturday 3pm blackout ...

Nick and Stu return to deliberate on Wimbledon's prospects of survival, after a sixth consecutive defeat left them just two points above the relegation zone, but with two favourable fixtures remaining. Can our injury-hit and low-on-confidence side get over the line? With Exeter and Burton and Leyton Orient involved in their own mini-league to finish the season, things might be looking okay ... Alongside that, we talk stewards, fan zones, Bonds, and the 2016 promotion-winning side. There's ROFHOG as always, and we take a closer look at the visit to Wigan's BRICK STADIUM, in the hope that their defence is made of Lego.

A bumper edition of the show as Nick and Stu talk through injuries, form, 50+1, relegation, Lincoln, Luton, end of season awards, Burton, Stockport, Sam Hutchinson, Junior Nkeng, Kevin Foster, and whatever happened to MAN OF THE MATCH? Loads and loads of Wimbledon chat to brighten spirits in a tough time, with a topical ROFHOG to go alongside it all.

Nick and Stu return to talk about the outcome of the recent Dons Trust votes that open the first door to selling more equity to investors. It is no doubt needed if Wimbledon are to progress as a Football League club, as injuries to the first team squad have once again exposed depth issues, resulting in just one point from the last 12 that have kiboshed any (admittedly very optimistic) play-off chat. How will the season finish from here? Alongside questions about Jake Reeves, Joe Lewis, and Omar Bugiel, we also have the usual talk of the ills of modern football, a look ahead to the Easter weekend games, and a more painful that it should have been edition of ROFHOG.
EP392: I FEEL GOOD, I FEEL GOOD, I FEEL GOOD

Nick and Stu return to discuss back-to-back wins against teams in trouble. How have we gone from one win in 13, to five in eight?! There's lots to pick through from both games, although sometimes football is hard to explain. We also talk 50.1 and the upcoming votes: have we found a loophole in proceedings?! There's also the usual rants and moans about kick-off times and changing kits, with ROFHOG and a look ahead to Stevenage to complete another fun show!

Light and shade on this week's podcast, as Nick and Stu discuss the high of an excellent win over Bradford, and the lows of the reality of ticket price rises, and what they tell us about the ongoing financial struggles facing the club. Alongside that stark message, there's also the issues of Sky Sports messing with all of our lives, pointlessly, and celebrity fans making children out of people that know better. At least there is a fun ROFHOG to add some levity, before we look ahead to a trip to Mansfield. But there's also pointless kit changes to get Nick annoyed from the get-go.

Nick and Stu pick through the changes that have turned Wimbledon from insomnia cures to entertainers. There are goals, goals, and goals ... but are we taking a risk by being more open? We also investigate injuries and missing players in the squad, before talk once again returns to finances in football, and how the latest set of club accounts from across the EFL demonstrate how far away from reality the sport has become. There's also a fun ROFHOG, and a look ahead to the game with Bradford on Saturday. Did we mention kick-off times? Oh and yeah, a rant on player salaries ...

Nick and Stu return with an extended episode to discuss all the latest financial news coming out of the club. What did we make of the recent meeting, and how concerned should everyone be about the immediate future of AFC Wimbledon? There's also lots of RUMOUR and INNUENDO to talk through - was there more to the whispers than people believe? Thankfully we have two wins to discuss to lighten the mood, with the 3-2 win over Reading a source of particular solace. ROFHOG and a look ahead to the trip to Barnsley complete a long but important show!

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 …

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.

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.

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!

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.

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!

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!

When you're six unbeaten, top of the form table, and over halfway to safety before November, you only have good things to talk about. This positivity - dare we say, happy clappyness - means Nick and Stu go off on a few tangents, free from the stress of any doom or gloom. So this week, talk of Plymouth is joined by some Premier League memories, musing over VAR and transistor radios, The Traitors, ROFHOG, attendances, and the usual look around the third tier. We also look ahead to the visit of Burton Albion. More fun and games on the 9yrspodcast!
