And, just to be clear, you're saying that Wimbledon FC moved to Milton Keynes, and not that a new club set itself up from scratch in Milton Keynes?0 -

The fact that virtually none of their fans went up there to support them probably had more to do with the fact they were poorly supported & not very successful in the first place. It Man U relocated to Wallsall I expect more than a handful of fans would still go. Or do you dispute that too @Elsberg.5 -

As in Walsall is about the same difference in distance from Manchester as Wimbledon is from MK.1 -

I wonder how many Wimbledon fans were at the first game in Milton Keynes.
@clb74 @golfaddick @chizz
How many do you think went? Plus continue to go.0 -

Judging from when I last went past it I’d say the 25th October was optimistic0

I love it when this thread resurrects itself from time to time.
FWIW, my view is that whether MK Dons is "the same" club as the old Wimbledon FC is a bit of a moot point. I can see the argument either way and can't really say I'm that bothered what the true answer is.
However, what is crystal clear is that AFC Wimbledon has no direct connection to Wimbledon FC/MK Dons and is not the same club. AFC Wimbledon didn't win the FA Cup and they can't be going "back" to Plough Lane as they have never played there. Ever. The fans may see it as their "spiritual home", which is up to them, but it's not (yet) their actual home and never has been. Ever.
I hope that clears things up for you all.

Don’t really give a shit either way, both the old and new Wimbledon are scummy little clubs. However, the fact is that the old Wimbledon became MK Dons and AFC are a completely different club0

It will be good to see AFC Wimbledon based at Plough Lane - 200 metres up the road (and on the other side of the Wandle river) from Wimbeldon FC's old ground. I'm pleased, too, that the planning consent for the new ground realised the end of Greyhound racing in SW16.1

The way Wimbledon were forced to leave plough lane was shocking and can easily happen to us in our current predicament. Plough lane could also only be used for football until Sam h paid the council £800k for the order to disappear!1

I know this is becoming all a bit Groundhog Day, but it's a simple fact that AFC Wimbledon have never played there before.1 -

But that's not what happened with this lot. The new club was formed whilst "Wimbledon FC" was still playing at Selhurst Park, before the move and the name change took place. Wimbledon FC actually played home games in Milton Keynes too, before the name change.
Anyway, no big deal really. It just makes me laugh when people talk about AFC Wimbledon "returning" to Plough Lane .....0 -
