MK Dons
The fact that this vile abomination of a franchise continues to exist is a major blow to the soul of English football. The day they finally go bust, I will fly to the UK to organise coaches to Milton Keynes from Wimbledon to dance on their ugly concrete grave.
Please note – If you are a MK Dons fans and this offends you, good.
YAWN, YAWN, YAWN.......
They could have ended up anyway (nearly ended up in Dublin) and mainly because Merton council weren't willing to help fund development of the area.
Support numbers had plummeted and Wimbledon were already ground-sharing with Crystal Palace. "You took our footbal club" was always a good shout out from so-called Wimbledon fans, except the majority weren't attending games.
The only possible argument is that they should have folded completely and any move to MK should have seen them start from the bottom again. Reality is that the Football League accepted the proposal and they are the only ones who should be blamed, not Winkleman and Co.
There are fans who still travel up from London..... and Dean Lewington is still at the club, having been a Wimbledon player at the time of the move.
Chances of them going bust - ABSOLUTE ZERO!!
Stadium that is closing in on it's 32,000 capacity, is already used by Northampton Saints and will be used for Rugby World Cup. Arena that currently hosts "Collectormania" twice a year, will host indoor sporting events and could see concerts take place too.
The surrounding area hs been completely redeveloped, and by the end of this summer there will be an IMAX cinema and complex on site.
Besides which, I'm off to watch them play Crawley tomorrow.......
