Jackson Corner
Jerry St Clair Boxing Day 2003. 0-3 at home to Wimbledon.

Wimbledon were morphing into Franchise FC and were hated by their own fans, who'd started boycotting games. We surrendered 3-0 for the third game running. Fans were turning against Coppell and it wouldn't have been a surprise if Mr Mad had sacked him (he very possibly didn't because that very morning he'd splashed out £350k on a certain D Kitson).


Yes that was shocking . I think it was a kids for a quid game so a bigger than normal crowd. Despite a bad run we were still in with a play off shout, they were down the bottom.

I still chuckle to this day after the game BBCRB was inundated with calls and texts saying Coppell should be sacked......


Dave Kitson cost £150k from Cambridge (some allegedly argue that it was a bargain)
