John Clinkard, the Oxford United physio, is set to become Don Clinkard!
After 12 years of sterling service, he is making a surprise switch to Wimbledon FC at the end of this month.
The Dons approached him after learning that he was packing it in with United to set up on his own.
Talks have taken place with Wimbledon chief executive David Barnard, and the Dons, who were relegated from the Premiership at the end of last season, have decided to employ Clinkard as a consultant physiotherapist on a Monday to Friday basis.
