Soft spot for AFC Wimbledon, hope everything works out!
Title: Re: Bring the Dons home Post by: Flashheart on Monday, December 2, 2013, 21:51:14 I agree with Sippo.
Too many people think that contempt for Franchise FC equates to sympathy toward Wimbledon FC. They are missing the point. Although Ardiles does raise a good point.

Too many people think that contempt for Franchise FC equates to sympathy toward Wimbledon FC. They are missing the point. Although Ardiles does raise a good point. (fnar fnar) I don't think its sympathy to AFC that people are implying - but if they could establish a base in Merton it would undermine the whole argument for Franchise FC.

This Sums it up nicely Title: Re: Re: Re: Bring the Dons home Post by: Ardiles on Monday, December 2, 2013, 22:33:24 I don't think its sympathy to AFC that people are implying - but if they could establish a base in Merton it would undermine the whole argument for Franchise FC. Exactly this. My main motivation for supporting AFCW is to ensure that Franchise is a one off. Title: Re: Bring the Dons home Post by: Kinky Tom on Monday, December 2, 2013, 22:52:29 anything i can do to demonstrate how i feel about what happened i will do, i could write a book about how this shouldn't have happened, almost nothing makes me angrier.

Were flats last time I drove past, last I heard they were looking at developing, or building alongside the dog track, lots of space there. Title: Re: Bring the Dons home Post by: kerry red on Tuesday, December 3, 2013, 10:48:03 The GRA, who own the greyhound track, have been trying to offload it for a while now but there appears to be a covenant restricting it to a community facility - so no housing.
Pascal Taggart who turned greyhound racing around in Ireland is hoping to purchase the track and upgrade the facilities as it is a complete shithole. If this fails there may be an opportunity for a new football stadium on that site. That would return Wimbledon as the shittiest ground to get to Title: Re: Re: Bring the Dons home Post by: Ardiles on Wednesday, December 4, 2013, 17:34:13 As an ex-Wimbledon resident, I was about to take issue with your comment and bang on about Wimbledon's brilliant public transport links...which, in general, they are.
And then I remembered how that particular bit of Wimbledon really is in a public transport black hole. So you have a point. Plough Lane was before my time. Where did people used to drink before games? Decent (if pricey) pubs in Wimbledon Village, but that would have been a bit of a trek. Title: Re: Bring the Dons home Post by: DarloSTFC84 on Wednesday, December 4, 2013, 17:51:17 Was hoping there would be a no button Me too, Franchise are the real Wimbledon. What football is all about.. Title: Re: Bring the Dons home Post by: Cookie on Wednesday, December 4, 2013, 18:23:41 Earlsfield for pub and a nice walk alongside the Wandle to the ground.
