I was fortunate enough to be at Wembley when Wimbledon FC lifted both The FA Cup and FA Amateur Cup, in 1988 and 1963 respectively, and was also one of more than 4,000 who piled in to see the new AFC Wimbledon club’s first-ever game - a pre-season friendly at Sutton United in 2002.

Last Tuesday the Surrey County FA invited me to their Senior Final at Woking and I sat directly behind AFCW’s chairman as his team won a bruising game 2-1 in extra time.

The kindest thing I can say about Wednesday’s game at Avenue Park is that it was "a clash of cultures". The Wraysbury lads didn’t appear to appreciate the skilful and thoughtful approach of the Brazilians and put in unnecessarily robust (and late) tackles at every opportunity.

Then they added insult to injury by accusing their opponents of "diving". Two Wraysbury players were red-carded, it could have been a lot more, and a police van drove up to the pitch  early in the second half. The superior South Americans still managed to win 3-1.

I think I may have seen my quickest goal ever on Thursday night at Market Road. I estimate that FC Eurostar scored inside the first ten seconds against Albion Reds.

Albion kicked off, lost possession with a sloppy square pass and the Eurostar No.17 burst through the centre to round the ‘keeper and slot home. It slightly made up for the fact that the game had started more than 20 minutes late on yet another chilly evening.

Eurostar’s third goal (they were 5-1 up at the break and won 6-2) was quite surreal. The Albion ‘keeper bounced the ball around in the box for up to the regulation six seconds and then allowed it to drop to his feet for a boot upfield.

A small boy suddenly ran in front him to retrieve his own bouncing ball and, momentarily distracted, the ‘keeper took his eye off the one between his feet and an enterprising Eurostar player lunged in to tackle him and score.

Saturday’s double header began with a Cup Final at Hanwell in the morning. A chunk of the Central line was suspended and there were a couple of Grantchester Road players on the replacement bus with me. We all got to the ground with about five minutes to spare.

Their opponents in what I understood was a kind of "Good Behaviour Cup" for West End League teams, Driftwood Spas, had dyed their hair. All eleven players were ginger. The ‘keeper had an orange cap on too. But they weren’t messing about and won 3-2.

Then it was off on what was left of the Central line to see mid-table Leyton Orient’s last League Two game of a disappointing season against Mansfield Town, also mid-table. I was shivering in my anorak in the South Stand behind the goal, my hands numb with the cold.

A black cloud came over and, sitting in the second row, I was lashed for several minutes by torrential rain. Even my proposed relocation to Chad, where the daytime temperature is usually around 50 centigrade, is barely going to compensate me for all the indignities I’ve suffered this season through the weather.

Three Wembley Cup Finals on Sunday – at Wembley FC – and all involving women’s teams. There was a serious fight between the players of Dagenham & Redbridge and Long Lane about half-an-hour into the third game.

I had only seen three red cards in more than 200 women’s games and this turn of events was completely unexpected. The ref could have sent most of the players off but just settled for Dagenham’s No.7 who, to be fair, had been quite prominent during the kicking, punching and hair-pulling.
