Standing on the edge of forever, at the start of whatever. Riddled with aspies. Bit of a diva. Metro for bills, Wimbledon for thrills. xDons Trust Board. Green.

I’ve no idea how Carole Malone gets a platform but it’s bloody hilarious watching her stupidity being pointed out on live TV. Well played

MK stole the league spot we EARNED over 113 years.
We reformed.
We gave them an EIGHT division head start.
We built a home in Wimbledon we pack out every game.
Our charities support 5,000 locals each month.
They could beat us 100-0 tonight and we’re still winning.

So if I’ve got this right, Piers cannot fathom why someone would liken themselves to a fictitious character for comedy value. And presumably he would never stand for anyone likening him to, say, the devil, unless he truly believed he was evil, for example.
Oh, hang on…
Hang on, a reality TV show where people pretend to be illegal immigrants and smuggle themselves into the UK.
One week after 39 immigrants died a slow death in a truck.

complete admiration for your patience in explaining the electoral system to someone who seems to have absolutely no level of understanding of how it works. I have to admit I would have probably resorted to speaking verrrrry slloooowly at this point 😳

You’re at a big-spending club, in a team stacked with big-money players, flying high in the division and when you equalise in stoppage time you chose to howl abuse in the face of a teenage debutant. Maybe just enjoy the moment, ugly. (Love Isaac just ignores him - well played)
“Condoms just don’t fit”
“Why not”
“Too small”
“have you tried XL ones?”
“Not big enough...”
“Have you tried the extra extra big ones?”
“I’ve never tried the extra extra”
All said in straight face.
YOU’RE WEARING A FUCKING OWL MASK, KEVIN!

I put this on FB in reply to some of the we’re skint ‘sell the club/sack the board/sack everyone’ stuff going around, and was told that perhaps not everyone was aware of stuff going on, so I’m putting it here for anyone interested. It’s just my take, really, but hey.

@AFCWimbledon
is the country’s most successful fan-owned club.
Well that was a long day, but what an entirely fabulous event. Highlights included my favouritist coming to see me at the halfway mark for a quick morivational chat (‘there’s an ice cream van a few miles down… run daddy!’), and indeed a cheeky Whippy at mile 15…
The academy, top drawer young players, entertaining front foot football, off field processes, culture, saving us from the drop, making our club a better place - so much to thank

Look at this clown. Comparing Milton’s Keynes empty matchday stadium to a Covid attendance and not realising he’s roasting himself. Brilliant stuff, genius.
Now that is a superb goal.

Here you go, Andy. Factually:
- AFC Wimbledon are recognised by The FA as previous winners
- The FA Cup is listed in our honours.
- We are permitted to use triangular corner flags
We reformed but

. It’s a continuation: Same fans, place, colours, honours, club…
Hang on.
They were given a league place in the Championship for FREE; they were built a stadium as part of a supermarket property deal for FREE.
And they still f***ked it up?
Wonderful.
MK Dons submit 22/23 accounts, club went from a £3.6m profit on the back of selling players at a profit in 21/22 to a £2.2m loss as reinvestment did not work & club relegated
Ice and heat, massage and physio, turmeric and magnesium (and whatever else I could find in the meds cabinet - that was a fun 24 hours) seem to have done the trick and the knee bends!
No idea how far I’ll get but not not going to try. See you at the start line 🏃

Another season done.
We were thrilling, we were drab, we were regularly frustrating.
But liked this squad. Even the players you don’t think are quite up to it you kinda want to stick around.
A season where we threw away the POs, but finally built a base. Going up next year 💯
So yesterday a few of my current and former colleagues got what you might call a bit of grief before, during and after the game. From what I can gather, it ranged from verbal to the threat of physical abuse, some in front of young relatives. That’s unacceptable on every level.1/4
I’m not so sure about the scissor kick foul, or the second yellow, but there’s no doubt this was a penalty. The dimwit hooligan defender isn’t even looking at the ball as he rugby tackles
@rudi_rudoni
to the ground a yard off the line with the ball incoming and an open goal ahead
You might think the FA had bigger fish to fry - Reading being burnt to the ground, Franchise’s very existence disgracing the game etc.
But no, they want to fine Harry Pell for some wayward shots during a warm-up.
I say

@exitthelemming
This. Absolutely this. A Priti Patel-esque gazillion percent this.
The only thing that could improve this thread would be if you were to narrate it over some trance reworking of Elgar.
Saturday: unwarranted physical assault 20 seconds after the ref has blown = nae bother.
Tonight: push in the back (after the player has tripped you and kicked the ball in your face) = red.
@Ben_Everitt
@MKDonsFC
To be clear
@Ben_Everitt
you’re protecting this club from owners who might, say, take a league spot earned on the field and move the team 60 miles away from its fanbase and the area it takes its name from?
Say that out loud.
Ruddy heck, just hit £3.7m on the bonds. And just off £10k on the WAWF. And there was that £2.4m on the urinals thing.
That’s >£6m we’ve chipped in for the new gaff.
Not sure whether we’re the richest fans around. Or the daftest. But pretty sure we’re the best.

Pls let the parents know to appeal Section I of the ECHP and take the LA to Tribunal asap. Waiting times are 6m to 1 year but it might push the LA.

broken :(
DTB getting an absolute whipping. And that’s fine. The board hasn’t been perfect and only last week held its hands up to a low budget and teething issues with the new set-up.
But what I do ask is that people at least slate the board for their actual areas of responsibility…
