AFC WIMBLEDON END OF SEASON REPORT.


Final league position 15th[Pl - 46   W - 14   D - 16   L - 16   F - 54   A - 60   Pts - 58]

The 2014-15 closed on Saturday with a disappointing 1-1 draw against already relegated Cheltenham Town. Jack Smith scoring the Dons equaliser in front of a crowd of 4,374.

It's a season of what might have been, the Dons having failed to win in their last 8 games meant they finished just below mid table when it was conceivable that the play off's could have been a possibility over Xmas sadly that was not to be. 

Failure to beat many of the sides below them in the table is something that has to be addressed for next term, should have picked up more points against the likes of Tranmere, Cheltenham and Hartlepool, it has often been the case that if a team is in a rut and needs a win they can be sure of one when the arrive at Kingsmeadow. 

The side did fare a lot better against some of the bigger sides though, doubles against the likes of Luton Town and Portsmouth were signs of better days ahead and the effort put in against York and Liverpool in the FA Cup were also excellent signs of progress in our short but illustrious career. 

PLAYER OF THE SEASON = BEAST MODE ON !!
The season has been exciting for the presence of one outstanding player, and leader of men. Take a bow Mr Adebayo Akinfenwa aka THE BEAST. Seen here doing a light work out in the gym and celebrating his goal against Liverpool in the cup. Do hope that rumours of him leaving in the summer are unfounded since he's been great for PR and excellent with the younger members of the squad and we need great characters like this for next season where a large portion of the squad will be promoted members of our development team. 

It's going to be a long close season without much football activity till later in the summer. Hopefully it'll pass quickly the next key date I guess will be the announcement of a pre season tour and friendlies followed by the release of Football League fixtures for next season.
