That's the warning from my Dons-supporting mate. At first he said we weren't to think it was directed at our fans or players - only now they have also worked out that Chicksen and JFC have past MK connections.
Wimbledon fans even in the pre MK Dons days have always been a bit hostile, a bit select, a bit stand offish, a bit up themselves .. reality is they're a bit of a bunch of fecking wombles .. great survivors though, even if the 'miracle from the ashes of the old club' was in reality financed by a VERY rich benefactor
At some point they need to drop the complete hostility to MK Dons. It has happened and there's no going back. A fierce rivalry is good but the level of hatred shown from AFCW to MKD is almost at parody levels. Not even the Old Firm clubs hate one another like that. Well, they do but it is a different kind of hatred, one stemming from decades of competition, not because of a botched ruling from the authorities that never should have happened. The agreement brokered by the FSF between the two sets of fans should have been a turning point; it's poor form to take an olive branch at the same time as returning a fist.

Don't think that will happen until MK drop the Dons.

moves afoot for this to happen .. name change to the MK Roundabouts .. be a toss up 'tween them and Swindon for the new naming rights
Think they're perfectly entitled to. Regardless of what you think of Wimbledon fans, or Wimbledon as a club, the decision to allow MK Dons to happen was a disgrace, and the fact that they hold onto that grudge will help to make sure that it'll never happen to another club, which is particularly important given the increasing amount of foreign owners who want to do as they please with our football clubs.

Agreed and boo the ownership by all means. Booing the employees though, 10 years after the so called peace agreement, is a bit sad though.

Nearly ten years since Pardew left, I'd still joyously boo him all day and all night!

Should never have taken a job at Franchise FC if he did not want to receive a hostile environment wherever he went.
It was a big break for someone at a young age who had only really played non league. Opportunities like that dont come around too often so would be surprising if anyone but the most ardent of Wimbledon fans turned that gig down in the scenario KR was in.
Hope we batter them and he gives them 2 fingers walking off and does a Rosler if they give him stick.

Disappointed tutting is much more hurtful than vociferous booing I reckon.

They can boo as much as they like as long as I get to see Charlton win.
I couldn't care less one way or the other.
.....is that what they are gonna chant?
Ive heard worse.
"You manage a team of shit journeymen run by a bunch of insane kleptocrats."
to the tune of Karma Chameleon.
