tinofbeans 91 Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 No midfield to speak of, lack of organization at the back, constantly bailed out by one of the better keepers in the league, strikers playing like two islands trying to catch long clearances..... sound familiar? No wins, two draws, three losses, but only one home game so far.... (which was lost 3-2 on a 90th minute penalty.) Hopefully we can turn it around. cisse and jones can't stand each other apparently. ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fish 10963 Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 For the second year running, AFC Wimbledon have won the fair play title for the league in which they have competed. The results of the Football Conference Sportsmanship awards sponsored by Sports 360 have been announced, and the Dons were one of only three teams in the Blue Square South with sufficient points at the end of the season to qualify for a share of the prize money, proportionate to the number of points they had left. (Points were deducted from a starting total of 54, one point for each yellow card and three for each red.) As a result we will collect £2,142.86. Terry Brown – who all season has spoken about the need for the team to maintain its discipline – was delighted. “I definitely think that discipline goes hand in hand with success, and I’m very proud of the way my players have conducted themselves over the past two seasons. “Fair play is very much a part of this club’s ethos, and it’s something we will strive to continue next season.” They've also had to release 9 of their players, some have been pivotal to the leagues success. Tom Davis and Jason Goodleaf in particular. They're saying that they want to get full-Pros who are young and still hungry. Seems like a sound strategy but it's sad to see the likes of Tom Davis miss out on comparative big time with the club he'd been so important to this season. Must be awful to celebrate such a massive success, only to have that sweet victory soured by the termination of your contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom 14013 Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 I think the building behind the far goal in the previous picture made it look really small but it looks fairly class there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suraj182 0 Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 My other team is the MK Dons Dad's been living there for the last 5 years or so and I've been to see many of their matches including the JPT final last season. Missed out on the playoff final with a penalty shootout loss to Scunthorpe. Shame really, would have loved to see Toon v MK Dons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Dons is from Wimbledon, and they're not Wimbledon. They're a Franchise team and for that they should burn in the fires of hell.

Suraj182 0 Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 Haha, I'm not into the whole debate about Wimbledon v MK (), just support them cause of my dad. I wasn't even around to see Wimbledon in their prime tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Castell 0 Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 I second what The Fish said about FC Franchise. I'm surprised they are still going, as I remember living in nearby Bedford, where everyone supports the big name London teams, Liverpool, Man Utd etc. as well as the odd Luton fan. I think people who go to Milton Keynes because they can't afford or get to Liverpool and the other teams, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
