Anyone who defends that performance, against our biggest rivals, has never been to a game of football in their life.
Caps off a bad week for the new owners TBF.
Aide memoire going into tomorrow's game.
MK Dons are the legal continuation of Wimbledon FC.
AFC Wimbledon were established in 2002 and have no connection to WFC.
17 years ago today the saving of Wimbledon FC began. 3 months later the great abandoning began. 17 months later, WFC was saved. Lets not quibble about minutiae, they are, and will forever be, the actual facts.
Dan Micciche's appointment proves how MK, and MKD, is at the forefront, the cutting edge, of the future of football. Let's hope he can bring a fresh perspective and get this club back its pride and, above all, football.

I'd like to wish Lewington well, and I'd remind everyone that we all thought we'd struggle without Dele. Well the skys still overhead, we've got a cracking draw to look forward to, our youth system is the best in the world, and we're still above AFC Kingston in the table.

Nice to know that, with 3 weeks to go, AFC Wimbledon have not released their ticket allocation and are already in breach of EFL rules.
Gimp club run by gimps for gimps.
I'd like to wish all

is not the same as the relocation of Wimbledon FC to MK. a) the Ricoh will still be there b) the EFL blocked the relocation c) WFC fans abandoned their club.. CCFC fans haven't. It's a bad situation but power to all Sky Blues.
Merry Christmas to all true Wimbledon FC fans who followed their team to MK and have never looked back since. It's been quite a ride! Now, go for promotion!

day 🍊⚽️
Just like the Orient game, we want pictures, videos or whatever all over social media!!
Get yourself down to Essex if you've got nothing better to do.

Some victory. Win and you're 8 points behind us and we're still in with a shout at 4th thanks to Morecambe. Maybe remind the idiots on here who insist 'football has won' that there's life outside NPL. Onto Mansfield. COYD!
#buryfc
have proven that if you stand by your club, if you don't run off to play the victim, one day, you'll be back home with your club.
Their achievement should be an embarrassment to certain clubs who are run by self-entitled champagne socialists.
I know a lot of people are fed up with the board, myself included, but the problem is not Pete Winkelman. We don't need an 'out' campaign and we certainly don't need external investment. I want someone who loves this club, not someone who loves their investment returns.
#mkdons
Whatever the result this weekend, our consummate professionalism throughout will show the virtual signalers who the mature, forward-thinking club are.
#mkdons
Although today has brought out those from the woodwork who chime in because it's us, football is't just one season. We'll be back. We did it before, and we'll do it again. Keep the faith and illegitimi non carborundum!
#mkdons
One day someone will write something original about the move, instead of pandering to the prejudicial BS towards MK and the undeserving fawning over AFCW. I say this to the author: move on. Nobody cares anymore. Both teams have something to be proud of.
🖊️ The story of the day a community lost it's football club - and how it came back. How AFC Wimbledon rose through the ashes of the move to Milton Keynes. |
@9yrspodcast
Just to be clear the EFL charge relates to the general treatment of MK Dons fans at that game. This will no doubt stir up the bandwagon jumpers and all the media outlets who are in favour of AFCW so I will ask all MK Dons fans to show them Who the Professional and mature Fans are
Another win, another step in the right direction. We may no longer be Wimbledon FC but the spirit of the Crazy Gang is alive in MK. Well done boys!

@MKDonsFC
12 months ago so called real football fans the magazines that they read and even the newspapers were gloating. Well as the song goes you stood there gloating and you're not gloating any more. Football doesn't stop after one season
I have to say if game goes ahead it will be because of the terrific work by the volunteers to help step in to clear the pitch. What a great club we have one which the community of MK have taken to heart and this proves it
#mkdons
The pride of Buckingham and another home-grown talent proud to be part of Milton Keynes' famed 'can-do' mentality. He had over 100 appearances for us, enough for him to be snapped up by a PL club. Incredibly sad but predominantly shocking news. Condolences to Sam and his family.
We are deeply devastated and saddened to learn about the shocking news of former Academy graduate and MK Dons player, George Baldock.
George started his career at Stadium MK, where he worked his way through the youth ranks and made his senior career debut at the Club before
It's sad that, as a club, we can't officially mark the passing of Joe Kinnear, one of the greatest managers in the game, despite our club being the continuation of WFC. For the avoidance of doubt, this is me sharing a personal opinion. Deepest sympathies to his family
Just watched the PW interview. He seems to be reading TCR. Answered all questions I wanted answering. Very candid but still as effervescent as ever. There are times I really struggle why people hate him. Couldn't have a better, more enthusiastic chairman

@MisterGLS
AFCW formed after rich champagne socialists couldnt be bothered to save WFC. They should've been promoted in 6 years not 9. Their ground is in Tooting and isn't owned by them Our SET was formed in 2007, theirs 2013, and has over 20 disability teams. They have none. Any more lies?
Whilst this is extremely sad, it's even more annoying to see the ill-informed, bandwagon jumper insisting that the incident between us and AFCW is related to this. Note: we don't control the EFL. We don't make the decisions. We don't prioritise these things.
If it was 'community-owned' then surely someone from their community has £11m and is a member of the DT? Or maybe the enormity of the task has forced them to look outside their community, which makes your claim they are 'shining example' a fallacious myth we all knew it was.
Really sad to see the situation at AFCW. To me, they’ve been a shining example of community ownership since their foundation and I wish them every success.
The supporters are quite right to raise concern and questions regarding the recently published statements.
I think the replies to this prove just how little IQ there is on social media and why the majority just ignore it and support their local team. The situation with WFC was completely different to Bury, but when we want to show sympathy we're damned.
Work has begun at the Double Tree Hotel at Stadium MK. Your next visit will be a constant reminder this is attached to the football ground with pitchside views from the rooms! More glory days to come from this club!

This sanction is very embarrassing for the club. I was all for fining Pell but this is so petty its beyond parody now. We're the better club on almost every moral level why throw it all away getting embroiled in their mind games?
Allow me to buy you a beer the next time I happen to be at Cardiff City Stadium for whatever random reason for a) recognising he's our best player and b) being brave enough to recognise who WFC became.
Q. We are struggling to score goals but have a player (Rhys Healey) scoring for fun at Wimbledon, why can’t we bring him back and give him a chance we’ve nothing to lose?

This Blair revelation is proof Wimbledon had to move, not proof fans were facing a battle to keep the club in London.
It should be a very inconvenient thorn in the side for people who play the 'clubs are community assets' card if PMs are prepared to support such moves.
This is why I love Winkelman: tells it straight. No shirking of responsibility, no talking anything up. We've had a 'horrible year' and a horrible season But there's always darkness before the dawn.

It does 'deserve to exist'; it was pulled back from the brink of extinction by probably one of the most successful businessman in this part of the world. Enjoy your loss.
I don't know what's worst here. The fact we took 1k to a guy who's been a liability all afternoon giving the ball away, the result or the predicament it's left us in. Really trying times as a Dons fan.

Troopers, every single one of them. If they're the same bunch who made it to Sunderland and all the other away defeats I doff my hat.

I'm prepared to debate with dignity and maturity about WF/MKD but the AFC fundamentalists are like debating with a bunch of primary school children. So glad we don't have any of that here.
#mkdons
I think the fact AFCW are so upset with this shows just how pathetic and petty they really are. After all, it's positive proof of how much the community has embraced the real WFC, now MK Dons.
AFC Wimbledon and MK Dons face off in the League Cup first round... and you could be there!

Pleased it's Tisdale. Although I was excited with Neilson, he didn't really know much about lower league English football and that was his downfall. This could be the dawn of a new era, giving the people of MK a club they can bring their families to again. Good luck Paul!
#mkdons
Can't emphasise how brilliant this news is, and is quite an incongruous piece of news, in a good way, put next to the 'losing 10k a day' interview Pete gave a couple of weeks ago . And it's good to see the same critiques silenced by this. COYD.

We don't 'turn it to hatred'; they do. Perpetual victims whose existence is solely defined by us.
You'll see that after a few seasons if we're both in the same league.

I had the pleasure of meeting Rex numerous times. He was the most level headed, decent, hard working person I've ever met. A person who championed the disabled and a huge asset to both club and the DSA.
Sincerest condolences to his friends and his family.
What happens when you a) have fans who condemn their players for liking a mate's tweet b) getting all excited over a funny but naff Xmas ad and c) a stupid Monopoly game. Get behind your team and lose this pathetic obsession over us

It's not a '20-year headstart'l; in fact, it's not a a 'headstart' at all. They applied to Ryman in every one of their leagues until the CCL accepted them, starting midway up the pyramid. In effect, they cheated a lot more than we ostensibly did.
