Can they not feel the shame as proper fans look down on them?

If anything it's the opposite as they seem to feel some perverse pride instead

I agree also, I was merely stating how I felt about players and managers who accept their employ.  Your 'fans' comment is a strange one, seeing as absolutely no one appears to have used that term to describe them.

Thought I saw it used somewhere in the thread but no matter. You can just take it as a general rant on the subject. For me they really are the antithesis of what being a football supporter is about.

Couldn't care less if he comes directly from franchise or not.. What does it matter? They aren't Oxford.

Agreed. Don't care where he comes from. He's a very good manager.

A bit odd that this has come out of no where really.  Would be a good appointment, cannot see it happening.

Probably a bit of 'siege mentality', rather like that lot from around Bermondsey.

Do you mean that you can't see it happening because it would a good appointment?

Not at all.  Sideways step for him, turned down bigger clubs than us etc etc.

Coupled with him being in contract at franchise AFAIK. Can't see us affording to poach him.?

Perhaps he and Winkleman have fallen out? in the past Winkleman has blocked most of the approaches for him, I would find it strange if we were allowed to talk to him when others haven't.

I'd be delighted with Robinson. I'd be very surprised, but delighted if we got somebody with a record as good as his.

Isnt it easy to manipulate the betting market I'm sure if someone put £10 on e.g. Alan Curbishley he would suddenely appear in the betting ,or does it make more money for the odd's to shorten, how much is being put on our new manager, or is it bookies making things up to get a bit of interest

Didn't some people on here (probably Mex) manage to get Sheena Easton briefly into the betting before somehow?

The thing is, I actually live close to MK, about 6 miles out, their are people here who were fans of other clubs, but have switched to becomig 'fans' of this thing they called a club, and yes they do class themselves as proper fans.

It's tragic, one such person lives in the village i live in, and frequents my local, and they justify the whole thing  by saying 'well wimbledon was going to go bust anyway'. its shameful

where do you live?  i'm the same distance from MK.  as for robinson, he comes in to All Bar One where i work sometimes.  i've had a good chat with him and he's actually a good egg, into red wine and good food which is good enough for me.

i'd be happy with him in charge, still hate the franchise but.
