Whos going tomorrow then?

Unless I'm mistaken, away fans are still housed directly behind the away dugout. Could get very interesting if its looks like were going to lose... again

Really don't fancy us to win this but I guess a point would at least take us off single figures!

I usually go to this but can't think of any reason to spend roughly a 100 on the wrong side of the Thames on a Tuesday night. Far to cold both on and off the pitch.

Nope, not coming tomorrow. Last season I travelled by train & bus, both tediously long journeys, only to be compactly accommodated in a small stand - and witness a freezing dull defeat and much hostility. I envisage history will repeat itself tomorrow and we will lose - probably inevitably - in an uneventful encounter. If it were a weekend I'd consider it, but I'm not waiting 45 minutes for a flipping bus. Been there done that, but well done to the fans who will be present.

I sat behind the goal last time I saw us play there.Boring....but true.

It's not a great view of the pitch, it's going to be freezing and we're not playing great. But it's one of our nearest away games this season so really we should have at least 200 minimum there (although somehow I doubt that). I don't think AFC Wimbledon away is too much of a big ask. Easy and quick to get to, quite cheap be good to have as many daggers as possible there

It'd be nice to have 11 Daggers on the pitch (or even in the squad).

Remember, "To be a Dagger is something special, it means you have something about you. Not just ability, you have got to have something that makes you want to work hard and fulfil your potential. Daggers never give up, never stop."

We're due a bit of luck at Wimbledon, surely? Ayo's blocked shot that would have given us a draw last year, Rob Edmans' diving header in the first visit and that 2-2 game where we really should have won.

Managed to snap up a tenner return from Norwich to Liv. Street tomorrow evening so I'll be there.

Why do you need to get a bus? Easily walkable from Norbiton station.

I'll be there. My 14th match of the season, time to see a first win surely!

It's close to where I live but a ballache to get back without a car as I'd have to go by train after work. Just not worth the hassle.

It's a stinker of a journey for a night game by public transport. Good luck to anyone going, chant for kingstonians as the Dons have agreed to leave them homeless once they build a new ground. Wankers.

I made the mistake of getting off at Wimbledon on the district line before hopping a bus. There was no service between somewhere and somewhere as well meaning the c2c had to be incorporated into my journey too!

Mike, I take it you have mislaid Mr Still's comments on being a Dagger of late as well then ;)

D the D, I think you should read up a little bit more on the ground situation, as your apparent assumptions are not really reflective of the actual situation.

I will be there. It's a game of football, in London, on a Tuesday night, where my Team are involved, and where I can see me mates and other like minded people, and therefore I will be in attendance.

We have been known to score and even win away.
