There is no Wimbledon anymore, AFC are not the so called 'real' Wimbledon
I think everybody accepts that Dachauer. But people are much happier supporting a club adopted in the lower leagues by the fans of one which went bust, than they are with a glorified soulless bunch of plastic cunts who gather in a soulless plastic bowl to watch their plastic team......
I think you get my point
Have to say I disagree. I regard AFC Wimbledon as the continuation of the club that won the 1987 Cup Final, played that awful (but quite effective) long ball game in the 1980s and early 1990s and that beat us 3-0 at the County Ground in our Premiership season.
If you accept that the most important component of any club is its fanbase, then this is the conclusion you would (probably) reach - whilst I also accept that not all Wimbledon FC fans became AFC Wimbledon fans.
The only link Wimbledon FC has with Franchise FC is a company number at Companies House which, for me, has far less resonance. The dirty Franchise conceded this point themselves when they returned all of Wimbledon FC's trophies.
