It is kind of weird how MK Dons are emerging as the ones we don't mind so much. Maybe we could have a Sunderland-esque 'friendship' with them? I miss us having an inter-club friendship. Other candidates, name them please...
As bad as AFC are we're not having a friendship with the biggest no mark club in the country!
I remember my Bromley FC mates saying how much they hated AFC, pretty embarrassing that I now understand them!
My feelings towards Franchise FC have mellowed considerably ever since Wimbledon got back in the same league as them tbh. The way the club was 'founded' was ugly, but enough time's passed I reckon. Milton Keynes took a shortcut but it's shown it can hold its own as a football-club town in the FL.
If they dropped the Dons bit and became MKFC I'd probably agree. Until then I'll hate them for stealing part of another clubs identity.
How can they, after all they are Wimbledon. Wimbledon, the club that played at Plough Lane & then at Selhurst. If you don't believe me, just look it up. They simply moved to a new ground - maybe 100 miles away, but that's it. They kept the same place in the league, the same players, the same manager etc etc. They are not a new team, AFC Wimbledon are.

If it was simply just moving ground they should have kept the name Wimbledon but the biggest controversy was the name change as well. Having changed the name and relocated they should have dropped the Dons, either they are Wimbledon or not in which case I certainly understand the call for them to drop the Dons from there name but clearly they had to use the Dons to justify being in the Football League rather than being a brand new club outright.
But now both teams are established and in the Football League same divison, drop the Dons and then both clubs can move on.

Officially they are a new team and have always been treated as such by the FA. Hence why they don't have an FA Cup win in their history, despite their requests to be allowed to claim it for themselves. They kept their league position etc because of legal loopholes which were later closed. They are not Wimbledon.

I'm enjoying this thread very much. Especially how people are starting to realise that AFC supporters are just a bunch of thugs with a sickening sense of entitlement.
We as a club got a lot of things wrong, and not a single MKD fan will disagree that the way the club came about was ugly, but at least we act with dignity towards them. Actually proud of our club for how we don't give in to their childish/antagonistic behaviour. Robbo knows what they are, and I'm glad he didn't change his tune when he moved clubs.
Hope you smash em, and good to see Ben Reeves back in form, hopefully he stays fit. Loves the FA Cup he does - 6 goals in 11 FA Cup games for us, and already got 2 for you.
Perhaps they have got a high proportion of unpleasant fans. Not all of them though, and that doesn't make the creation of MK Dons any more acceptable.
Put in their shoes, we'd be exactly the same towards Robinson.
Calling him a fat cunt I have no issue with it’s the hoping he gets stabbed is a bit ott, plus the small club syndrome I get there struggle and support it.

The stabbing thing is definitely OTT. Only one bloke though, sure we could rustle up a couple of idiots on that level from our support.
Before Robinson turned up, and previous meetings between both clubs have been untoward. Now with him as our manager the Wimbledon fans are now seen as the enemy because of past comments made by him when at MK Dons.
As he said last night the game is not about him, but sadly it has turned into that.

who does have that FA Cup win then ? Surely it can't be AFC Wimbledon as it was before they were formed - or are the FA now re-writing history.

For those who haven't been to Wimbledon it is truly awful. If you think the scaffold stand at Gillingham is bad wait till you see Wimbledon 's ground It makes Gillingham look like the San Siro.
Welling or Milan ?
Either. Both better than Wimbledon
To be fair, it's not their choice of ground. Temporary before they get their own ground.

Wimbledon. The FA cup and all Wimbledon's historical accolades are currently owned by Merton Council. Signed over by the MK chairman when he stated himself that MK were no longer Wimbledon FC.
If their thuggish fan base, their club's childish attitude to nearly every aspect of football, and their club officials/supporters association's constant victim playing is a reflection of what a "proper club" is then I'm perfectly happy staying as we are thanks.
Soooo... what is it that Robinson said while MKDons manager that upsets Wimbledon fans so much?
I'm not really willing to dismiss them as frothing idiots without that crucial piece of info.
I believe it was along the lines of blaming fans' failure to turn up in numbers and support the original team being the reason for the move- when in fact many were boycotting at the time while proactively trying to save their club.

We're never going to have a rivalry with Wimbledon. They're obsessed with hating MKD so no one else gets a look in. Everyone else between the Thames and the Channel hates Palace (us, Millwall, Brighton) or Millwall (us, Palace). Wimbledon don't. They'll be bristling about the Robinson connection (just like we'd be happy to turn over a team managed by someone who'd been at Palace or Millwall for ages) but at some point KR will move on and it'll be like our games with Gillingham - a bit of edge but nothing like the Spanners or Nigels.

He has said a load of things. He's claimed we banned them from scouting us ahead of our first meeting. Not true, we just said they probably shouldn't wear club kit etc. He said that without MK move Wimbledon wouldn't exist. Not true either. He's said Wimbledon fans could've stopped the move. His comments last week in the hospitality area which a number of Wimbledon fans witnessed, slagging off the club and its fans.
Charlton fans on here don't seem to understand two things, the first of which that he was and still very much is "Mr MK Dons", acting like MK are completely innocent of any historical wrongdoing and all the blame lies with Wimbledon fans.
The second thing is, and this is probably the only thing MK fans will agree with me on, he's a bit of a c**t. A genuinely nasty man who has developed a pretty bad reputation with fans in the Championship and League one. His post-match moaning, his in-game moaning, in the fourth officials ear from the minute go.
What about his four game touchline ban for a comment to a Bradford player for offensive comments motivated by a players nationality. And then plays the "I've never done anything to disrepect anyone" card.
I get you've gotta defend him because he is your manager, fine. Don't let Robinson fool you with his "I'm just an innocent fat bloke doing a job" routine when in fact he's a grade A bellend, and don't have a go at Wimbledon fans for lacking class when your manager is hardly a shining example of possessing it himself.
It's a real shame, Wimbledon fans have in the past been massively supported of your Roland Out campaigns, massively supportive of your attempts to return to the Valley back when that was all going on.

Make him right there though.
"Charlton leaving the Valley was because the fans were lazy". "Roland running your club into the ground is because your fans couldn't be bothered to do anything to stop it."
Neither of those are true. Neither is the BS about Wimbledon fans being to blame for the club moving.

I cannot imagine any other former franchise manager; Paul Ince, Danny Wilson or Martin Allen being booed if they were managing down at Wimbledon.
Neither of those are true. Neither is the BS about Wimbledon fans being to blame for the club moving.
