COME ON YOU REAL DONS.
Dean Lewington of the Fake Dons is the only player on their side that was on the original Wimbledon while Neil Sullivan in goal for the Real Dons is technically playing against his former club, but it's not a return to Milton Keynes!
The Fake Dons are dominating early possession as expected as they are the overwhelming favorites,challenging for promotion to the Championship. Despite being the home team , the Fake Dons are taking lots of stick from the Real Dons fans. Long may it continue.
The Fake Dons had a free kick and Otsemebor headed straight to Neil Sullivan
Lots of Real Dons fans made the 50 mile trip to Milton Keynes. I think they outnumber the home fans.
Kay of the Fake Dons terribly slices a clearance for a corner to the delight of the Real fans. The corner was headed away, then both sides traded possessin
Dean Lewington of the Fake Dons , the only player on their side who played for Wimbledon before they became the Fake Dons, is having a really nervous start
The Fake Dons have a lot of possession, but it's all in midfield.
The best chance of the match as Luke Chadwick , the former Man Yoo trainee set up Balenta and he shoots just wide from a long possession. Balenta is on loan from Evil QPr. Two wrong s doesn't make a right
A superb atmosphere, better than some EPL matches.
The Fake Dons are so fake that their fans are not making any noise. Only the travelling Real Dons fans are chanting
Luke Chadwick fails to get on to a long chipped pass and it's out for a goal kick to the delight of the travelling fans.
A cross by Jack Midson leads to a RealDons corner
They take it short and it was a waste. Antwi of the Real Dons fouls from the side and the Fake Dons fans want a red card. The ref used common sense and gave him a lecture.Well done.
The Real Dons have the worst defense in League 2 , but are doing a magnificent job so far.
Neil Ardley, the Real Dons manager, played for Wimbledon before they became the Fake Dons. He deserves great credit for organizing a team with a terrible defensive record. I am sure he has his side up for this match. I am sure Neil Sullivan helped in that respect too.
The two Neil's are new to the Real Dons. Neil Ardley has been the gaffer for only two months while Sullivan cam just a few weeks ago.
Jack Midson fouls Dean Lewington in a promising position for the Fake Dons.
Mamabo heads away the free kick as Sullivan was out of the goal
A poor cross from dean Lewington is easily gathered by Neil Sullivan
Useless through ball by Jon Otsemebor for the Fake Dons. The former Liverpool trainee is now a Fake Dons player, making him a vile character
BLODDY HELL !!!
THE FAKE DONS TAKE THE LEAD SECONDS BEFORE STOPPAGE TIME AS STEVEN GLEASON SCORES A CRACKER FROM 25 YARDS OUT IN THE TOP CORNER.NEIL SULLIVAN DID NOT HAVE A CHANCE.
Little noise from the home fans when that goal was scored and the Fake Dons have a 1-0 halftime lead.
In the Championship, it is halftime and 0-0 in a Lancashire Derby as Burnley hosts Blackburn.
I hope this is not a psychological blow for the Fake Dons as they played magnificently , but conceded a wonder goal on the stroke of halftime.Hopefully , Neil Ardley will give a good halftime talk.
The draw for the Third Round is in about an hour and twenty minutes.
Three minutes into the second half , back from a long trip in the loo.
The announcer said that Dean Lewington has played 460 games for wimbledon and the Fake Dons combined.

Ryan Lowe of the Fake Dons has a cross deflceted into the side netting afeter a defnesive error, The corner from Dean Bowditch leads to another
The Fake Dons maintain possession as a poor punch from Neil Sullivan off a cross from Williams was volleyed into the side netting by Dean Bowditch. A let off for the Real Dons.
Neil Ardley is not happy with the Real Dons and he is letting them have it!
A long Barca style possession and Otsemebor crosses straight to Neil Sullivan. A long punt leads to a free kick for the Real Dons.

The free kick is headed away and a back pass straight to Neil Sullivan
It is still 1-0 to the Bad Guys
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!
1-1- AS JACK MIDSON HEADS IN A CROSS FROM AJANA AND THE FANS ARE GOING BONKERS. No reaction from Neal Ardley
Actually , Ardley did celebrate. Also, Jack Midson went straight to the fans and asked them to go back to their seats as a few had come on the pitch behind the goal. Midson was booked for his celebration. I did not see what he did to be booked, but he should be commended for doing the job of the fake stewards.
Another run down the right buy Ojana, but he overran it
I thought Luke Chadwick won a corner for the Fake Dons, but the linesman said goal kick
Hard to believe that the Real Dons are only one point above the drop zone in League Two
Ojana with a naughty challenge on Gleason and Kyle Robinson, The Fake Dons manager, complains.
SHUT IT!
Zeil Ismail ,the eighteen year old Albanian born player on loan from Wolves , is on for Angelo Balanta, the Colombian on loan from Evil QPR. even though he was born in Albania, Ismail has been capped by the England Under 17s
Carl Robinson, the Fake Dons manager,is not happy.
A goal in the Lancashire Derby as Blackburn take the lead at Burnley.
A goal in the Lancashire Derby as Blackburn take the lead at Burnley.
PHEW !!! THE FAKE DONS HAD THE BALL IN THE BACK OF THE NET AS ISMAIL VOLLEYS A LONG BALL ACROSS THE BOX AND RYAN LOWE VOLLYED IN FROM CLOSE RANE. The goal was disallowed for offside and the replay showed Ismail was about a foot offside. really close!
Charlie Strutton is on for Byron Harrison, who ran himself ragged for the Real Dons.
I don't think the Fake Dons would want to make the trip to the Real Dons in a replay. It would be a really hostile atmosphere
The Real Dons have been the better team since the equalizer.
Rangers take the lead against Elgin City in the Scottish Cup.
Fifteen minutes plus stoppage time remaining. Will fitness be a factor in this cup tie?
The Fake Dons seem to be running into a blue brick wall every time they attack
It's about to be +1 for the LUFC Academy factor, as Alan Smith is about to come on for Ryan Lowe for the Fake Dons.He also played for Man Yoo and the Toon.That will be -1 for the Blackburn FC Academy Factor.
Alan Smith is now on for Ryan Lowe as the Fake Dons make another change. Boos from the Real Dons fans.
Now the Real Dons make a change as Huw Johnson is on for Luke Moore.
Charlie Strutton is offside for the Real Dons as he heads a cross straight to David Martin off a cross from Fenlon.

Now Gleeson is down injured as he chased a poor pass.He actually won a free kick for the Fake Dons.
The free kick from Shaun Williams is headed away
The former United connection does not work as Alan Smith heads a long ball to Luke Chadwick, but his shot is deflected harmlessly to Neil Sullivan
OH! NEARLY A WINNING GOAL FOR THE REAL DONS AS GREGORY TACKLED A DEFENDER AND SHOT ABOUT AN INCH WIDE.
It was a corner that was headed away bby the Fake Dons as there are four minutes of stoppage time
Otsemebeor win a corner . the corner from Bowditch leads to a scramble in the box.
BUGGER!!!! AS THE CORNER WAS FINALLY CLEARED A LONG RANGE EFFORT FROM DEAN LEWINGTON TOOK A WICKED DEFLECTION OFF OF JON OTSEMEBOR WRONG FOOTING NEIL SULLIVAN. A LUCKY WINNER FOR THE REAL DONS
It was scored a minute and 5 seconds into stoppage time.
Burnley have tied it up vs Blackburn in stoppage time
The dons had made a change shortly before the goal as Neil Fenlon was replaced by Pim Balkestein
The Fake Dons make a change as the four allotted minutes have been played. NMatias Douambe is on for Luke Chadwick
Two long throws for the Reall Dons as Al;an Smith Kadumps
That's it as the Fake Dons win 2-1 with a really lucky winner.So lucky you can say it was a Fake win
It finished 1-1 between Burnley and Blackburn
The third round draw is in less than fifteen minutes
I have the ITV link on for the Third Round Draw

I can't wait - I'll of course be down in Harlingen with the Gooner enjoying these matches. Are you sure you can't join us, UWS. Should be a brilliant time!
Good morning lads . It was a cracking cup tie.Sounds like West Ham vs Man Yoo will be the tie of the round. Jonno told me he will be going on vacation elsewhere at that time . Sorry mate
It is the weekend after my break. I have school
A decent draw for Leeds vs Brum. Should be a fairly even match. Arsenal play Swansea, who defeated them yesterday, but this time they travel to South Wales.
Not a Big Club vs the Fake Club is the most evil draw of the round.
Rangers now lead Elgin City 3-0 in the second half.
Evil Cardiff vs Not a Big Club has just kicked off.Not sure who cheer for.
Rangers have defeated Elgin City 3-0
It's called a "weekend," mate. Make it work!
A;freton Vs leyton Orient has just kicked off. The winner plays Hull City at the KC in the Third Round
Well stated, BD. The population of Alfreton is only 22,000 and they win an early corner that Orient struggle to clear. Alfreton win another corner.
The Orient keeper catches the next corner
GOAL !!! PAUL CLAYTON GIVES ALFRETON THE LEAD
It was a move down the right and a nice pass to Clayton who scored despite the keeper getting a hand to it, but he pushed it in the corner. The goal was scored at 3 minutes and 12 seconds in.
A free kick to Alfreton, but it was too long and out for a goal kick
A free kick to Alfreton, but it was too long and out for a goal kick
According to the announcer Alfreton is +1 on the LUFC Academy factor as they signed a young defender from Leeds. Also, Jon Stewart in goal is on loan from Burnley. A great Daily Show for ALfreton.
IS Orient going to be on the wrong end of a cup upset?
It looks like Nachos and Cheese for an elderly fan. he should be well pleased.
OH! NEARLY 2-0 TO ALFRETON AS A SHOT CAME OFF HE POST!
OH! NEARLY 2-0 TO ALFRETON AS A SHOT CAME OFF HE POST!
a LONG BALL FROM THE RIGHT AND AN oRIENT DEFENDER HEADED ON TO AN aLFRETON player , who had just the keeper to beat, but shot off the post.
Alfreton win a free kick just outside the box.
OH! NEARLY 2-0 AS THEY FREE KICK DEFLECTED OFF THE WALL AND ON TO THE BAR. HEAD TENNIS IN THE BOX, THEN THE REF CALLED A FOUL
Orient have two former QPR players in the lineup. All the more reason for them to be on the wrong end of a giant killing
Kevin Lisbie was a ball hog and wasted Orient's first real attack of the match. Jon Stewart has been a virtual spectator in the Alfreton goal. He should do The Daily Show,
Another orient attack is wasted.
Orient win a corner that I thought would be a goal kick
The corner fails to beat the first man is easily headed away
GOAL !!! 1-1 AS COX CUT INSIDE THE LEFT BACK AND CURLED A LEFT FOOTED SHOT IN THE CORNER FROM A DIFFICULT ANGLE.
sUPERBLY TIPPED OVER BY John Stewart after James was put through by Kevin Lisbie
GOAL !!! 1-2 ORIENT AS THE CORNER WAS HEADED BY AN ALFRETON DEFENDER STRAIGHT TO MOONEY AT THE FAR POST, WHO SUPERBLY ROCKETED A VOLLEY INTO THE OPPOSITE CORNER
Two goals in five minutes for the East London side.
Two goals in five minutes for the East London side.
Back from an errand see that Orient lead 1-3 at the half as Mooney has scored with two headers for Orient.It's 0-0 at Carrow Road.
GOAL !!! BASSONG BUNDLES NORWICH INTO THE LEAD AS HOLT HEADS ON A FREE KICK FROM SNODDY!IT MAY HAVE DEFLECTED OFF OF CARLOS CUELLAR INSTEAD
I'm back from a refreshing shower to enjoy the late one and I see that I've missed Norwich's opening goal. Well done, the Canaries!
Sunderland now slipping perilously close to the dropzone, one point ahead of Southampton.
It's Evil Cardiff 0 Not a Big Club 0 early in the second half. I hope they run into each other.
Hello , BD. It was a scrappy goal bundled in by Bassong off a free kick from Snoddy
LUFC Academy factor on this match - +1 with Matthew Killgallon starting at the core of the Black Cats defense. Could be +2 if Jonny Howson gets off the Norwich bench. Heavy ex-LUFC contingent in this one.
Good to see that Snoddy is bedding in well at Carrow Road.
On FSC + Orient have a 1-3 halftime lead at Alfreton after the Conference side took an early lead.
Daniel Harris in the Guardian jests: "If football teams were film characters, Sunderland would be Guy Pierce's character in Memento - they have completely forgotten what to do. Perhaps they need to start tattooing coaching manuals on their body parts."
The dons Derby was a cracker , but the Fake team scored a fluke of a winner, thus making it a Fake Victory. They travel to Not a Big Club in the Third Round. An evil cup tie!
Glad to see you're making the best of Elizabeth's gift of FSC+.
Surprising for a Martin O'Neill team. His teams usually know exactly what to do. where has it all gone wrong?
Indeed - not sure which Not a Big Club I'll choose in that one.
Not sure that the Gooner wants to see Swansea again so soon either.
Ta, BD. You and Steve will have unlimited access while in Harlingen Looks like UWS will miss out
I was thinking that Gooner would say that. An unwanted deja vu!
Halftime and 0-0 in the Edinburgh Derby Cup Tie
Halftime and 0-0 in the Edinburgh Derby Cup Tie
Speaking of that, Not a Big Club at Evil Cardiff is a match where I hope they knacker each other. Still 0-0 in the second half. Long may that continue.
If Martin O'Neill walks the plank then that would be a first for him in a long , successful career. Sad indeed if that happens.
You can hear poor Chris Hughton bellowing at his players now.
Norwich hosts Peterborough in the Third Round and their name is plastered over the Norwich shirts as they are the sponsor's . A hilarious quirk!
Chris doing a good job at Carrow Road after horrible treatment at Newcastle
Yes - quite a come-down for Martin who at one point was favorite to take over from Fergie at OT. He won big with Celtic and then did reasonably well putting together a competitive and ballplaying Villa side. Not look at the poor chappie.
Yeah - Norwich will just about stay up this season. They'll have the inevitable late season slump but I think they've done enough so far to compete.
I agree with both statements, BD,.
OH! TOMLINSON HIT THE BAR FOR ALFRETON AS IT COULD HAVE BEEN 3-3. THE NON LEAGUERS NOT HAVING THE CUP LUCK AS THEY HAVE HIT THE WOODWORK THREE TIMES.
Both FScs showing replays of an earlier goal
Kilgallon is the target there from the free kick but the Norwich defenders still well enough to put him off.
Alfreton have a free kick just outside the box.
OH! Law the Alfreton manager's took a free kick that was about six inches over.
Shame to see how far Adam Johnson has fallen off the pace. He's playing on his natural side for Martin O'Neill but he's a long way off his form at Citeh and England.
Jon Stewart in goal for Alfreton. Your thoughts, BD?
Agreed, BD. He's definitely not in the picture.
Corner to Alfreton that leads to another as an Alfreton player failed to connect at the far post.Now a third consecutive Alfreton corner
An Alfreton player blocked a shot from his own teammate that was goal bound.Alfreton maintain possession
GOAL! Pilkington doubles Norwich's lead!
GOAL !!! 2-0 NORWICH AS MUFC ACADEMY SCORES WITH A GREAT FINISH FROM A SUPERB LONG BALL.
iT WAS A LONG nORWICH POSSESSION AND NOW THEY ARE IN CONTROL OF THIS MATCH
Fine goal ont he break there. Terrific bending ball that split the Sunderland defense. Pilkington still had a lot to do to beat the two center backs, jinking inside onto his right foot and gliding it past Mignolet.
Sunderland right up against it now. 2-0!
Snoddy made a great run down the right, but Mignolet was down to gather his pass.
Nearly a fourth for Orient as young LUFC Academy cleared a header from Kevin Lisbie off the line
Will Martin rattle some teacups at the half?
Useless cross by Adam Johnson.
Useless cross by Adam Johnson.
GOAL! Gardner has fired Sunderland back into this one on the stroke of half time!
GOAL !!! SUNDERLAND HAVE A LIFELINE AS ADAM JOHNSON MADE A SUPERB RUN DOWN THE LEFT AND CRAIG GARDENER PLACES A LONG RANGE EFFORT IN THE CORNER. THEY TRAIL 2-1
Came out of nothing. Johnson played a nothing ball into Craig Gardner's path and his left shot bent past Bunn, who might have tipped it around.
1-1!
Sorry - that's 2-1 Norwich of course. Nearly half-time.
Into stoppage time
It's two minutes of stoppage time and one has already been played
That will change the tone of the half-time tea talk from Martin. I agree with you that he might have read a few of the players the riot act. But maybe not now. Gardner has saved a few players some rollicking.
Evil Cardiff take the lead vs Not a Big Club. Sven minutes plus stoppage time remaining in that match
Definitely true, BD
Halftime and 2-1 to Norwich, but they conceded a poor goal at the end of the half that Bunn should have saved.
Off to Alfreton to avoid the talking heads.
Fifteen minutes plus stoppage time remaining and Alfrerton have yet to make a change,.
Cox takes forever to come off for Orient as he is subbed and should really be booked for that
Comfortable save by the Orient keeper as Jimmy Smith came on for Cox.
Clayton wins an Alfreton free kick about a foot outside the box. A booking for Ben Chorley
OH! LAW HITS A FREE KICK THAT COMES OFF THE BAR. FOURTH TIME ALFRETON HAVE HIT THE WOODWORK
OH! LAW HITS A FREE KICK THAT COMES OFF THE BAR. FOURTH TIME ALFRETON HAVE HIT THE WOODWORK
Seconds before the free kick Alfreton made a change as Ton Denton came on for Ben Tomlinson, who scored once and hit the woodwork twice.
Orient had a corner as Kevin Lisbie headed over the corner from Cox.
GOAL !!! THAT SHOULD SEAL IT FOR ORIENT AS COX SCORES A BRACE TO GIVE ORIENT A 2-4 LEAD.IT WAS A NICELY WORKED GOAL THAT STARTED WITH A THROW NEAR THE CORNER FLAG AS SMITH AND MOONEY EXCHANGED SOME NICE PASSES , THEN COX SCORED WITH A GREAT FINISH IN THE CORNER.
Evil Cardiff have defeated Not a Big Club 1-0 and are top, one point ahead of Palace
Mooney was through on goal with just John Stewart to beat , but shot wide.
A lot of "Wenger Out" chatter on yesterday's 606 from Gooners. The Cult of Arsene seems to have ended.
Alfreton fans still cheering their team on as they win a corner.
We're back for the second half at Carrow Road and Sunderland's top scorer Stephen Fletcher has gotten the hook from Martin.
Clayton heads wide from the corner by Moore.
WOW! I didn't expect. A message from Martin that nobody is guaranteed 90 minutes!
Five minutes of stoppage time at Alfreton.
It's Conner Wycombe - the former Ipswich man - who's on for Fletcher. The requisite boos going up as he touches the ball for the first time.
I heard that Wenger was booed after the match. I don't see him walking the plank, but I see him harassing more journalists
That is to be expected. Not a popular player in Norfolk!
The oldest club in the world is Sheffield FC. As though there are not enough Sheffield clubs!
Quick start from Sunderland there. Sessignon finding a good cross that Wycombe just couldn't get onto.
It looks like Orient will travel to Hull in the third round.
Orient make a change to waste time as Ryan Brunt, on loan from Stoke City, is on for Kevin Lisbie
