Title: AFC Wimbledon Post by: Tails on Wednesday, April 30, 2008, 11:56:54 Could take another step closer to the football league on Saturday when they face Staines in the Ryman League Premier Division play off final. This would leave them only 2 promotions away from the FL.
Good luck to them, great set of supporters who deserve some success. Title: AFC Wimbledon Post by: DMR on Wednesday, April 30, 2008, 11:59:45 I personally think that other than the hardcore few who got it started, most them are bandwagon fuckers just like MKD but the opposite, people who like the notion of what AFCW are doing but were never Wimbledon fans.
Title: AFC Wimbledon Post by: Ralphy on Wednesday, April 30, 2008, 12:02:02 I look forward to the day that AFC beat Mc Dongs.
Title: AFC Wimbledon Post by: Dazzza on Wednesday, April 30, 2008, 12:10:52 That Manure ‘toys out of pram when the gnome arrived’ incarnation are also doing well.
Good luck to the AFC though it would be nice to see them get a step closer to the league. Title: AFC Wimbledon Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Wednesday, April 30, 2008, 12:28:06 Good luck to them. I hope they go up.

You might think that but it's simply not true. They took pretty much the entire fanbase - bar a couple of hundred who went to Franchise - and they've stayed loyal ever since. Which is why they were getting gates of 2000+ in the Combined Counties League and still are in the Ryman. Title: AFC Wimbledon Post by: Tails on Wednesday, April 30, 2008, 13:13:16 They've got 4000 a couple of times too, that is amazing for the level they are.
Title: AFC Wimbledon Post by: janaage on Wednesday, April 30, 2008, 13:18:14 Love them to go up to the conference soon, then the pox won't be able to bang on about their amazing support. Which in truth has been impressive this season.
Title: AFC Wimbledon Post by: tans on Wednesday, April 30, 2008, 14:43:47 Its only been impressive cos they were all bleating about how they were going to romp the league.
How wrong they were :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick: :beers: Cunts.

Title: AFC Wimbledon Post by: Ardiles on Friday, May 2, 2008, 09:04:02 I went to AFC Wimbledon's first home game at Kingsmeadow wearing my Swindon scarf, and I've been watching out for their results ever since. Aldershot is the blue print.
Title: AFC Wimbledon Post by: Simon Pieman on Friday, May 2, 2008, 09:23:31 Thing is, even if it was bandwagon types who supported them, at least they've worked their way up the ladder, like any new club should.
Title: AFC Wimbledon Post by: my-velocity on Friday, May 2, 2008, 12:47:59 Isn't Luke Garrard with them? He was a good player for us..
Title: AFC Wimbledon Post by: RobertT on Friday, May 2, 2008, 16:53:37 Surely if you were up for joining a bandwagon you'd be supporting Chelsea? what an odd bandwagon to choose, a non league team. It's not really a bandwagon is it.
Title: AFC Wimbledon Post by: neville w on Friday, May 2, 2008, 20:19:10 Quote from: "my-velocity" Isn't Luke Garrard with them? He was a good player for us.. When, exactly ? Title: AFC Wimbledon Post by: leefer on Saturday, May 3, 2008, 07:43:48 Fair play to them,nice if loyalty is rewarded.
Title: AFC Wimbledon Post by: Dazzza on Saturday, May 3, 2008, 11:07:00 Garrard started breaking into the team under King but rejected a contract to move back down to London nearer home due to personal reasons.
Title: AFC Wimbledon Post by: DerbyRed on Saturday, May 3, 2008, 18:31:32 And so Wimbledon are one step closer to the league after beating Staines 2-1 today! :D
A lot of my family support them so dead chuffed for them - I reckon we'll see them in the Conference within 2-3 years now! Congrats to them anyway! :beers: :beers: :beers: Title: AFC Wimbledon Post by: pauld on Saturday, May 3, 2008, 20:48:15 Yeah, dead chuffed for them. Two promotions away from reclaiming the League place that was stolen from them. If only Franchise would implode in the meantime
Title: AFC Wimbledon Post by: tans on Saturday, May 3, 2008, 21:04:01 Has anybody read the article in 442 this month regarding Franchise. Just looking at it made my blood boil.
Bunch of cunts. Title: AFC Wimbledon Post by: STFC_Gazzza on Sunday, May 4, 2008, 07:23:39 They Conference South now?
