If you’ve recently had a lottery win and fancy a pre match pint, The Halfway House is directly outside Earlsfield Station and welcomes away fans. @drfc_official @AFCWimbledon @SLO_DRFC

You might want to rename the thread, AFC Wimbledon are not the franchise club, that’s MK Dons..

[RoversAlias]

AFC Franchise??? What's that all about? Our opponents today are the true and original Wimbledon.

[Sammy Chung was King]

Same side , nice to get continuity. Personally I would have gone for Horton down the left but not much between them.

[River Don]

I hope the club haven't gone to Milton Keynes this afternoon.

That’s not quite true either.

AFC were formed by supporters when the original Wimbledon moved to MK but before the name change etc.

Although AFC are the moral successors in my opinion.

Well yes IDM, legally speaking MK Dons are the continuation of Wimbledon FC. But they stole their league place, and the true Wimbledon support, history and value went to the newly created club. Either way, the thread title here is completely wrong.

No MK Dons are not a continuation either.  They were a new club who took Wimbledon’s league place, hence Franchise.

What are we even arguing about here?

Today's opponents are not a franchise club as the OP has stated in the thread title. End of story.

Let's talk about the Rovers now.

Whilst I had written our season off and resigned my self to relegation at various points so far, I’m as nervous as hell about this game today.

[IDM]

The saga still irks RA, hence my pedantry in this case..

Looking forward to KO and hopefully another 3 points for us..

[ScillyRover]

Huge game. Come on Donny !!!

[Wiltshire Exile]

How we doing? In possession terms AFC are in front by 71:29% after 19 minutes.

Cracker from Jeff Stelling on Sky Soccer just now.

Amine Bassi just scored for the Dingles

Barnsley are not Big Spenders!”

Boom boom

[ChrisBx]

1-0 down.

[Copps is Magic]

1-0

We've not showed up. Hoof ball.

Olowu gave away a needless foul for the goal

[IDM]

w**k..

[Sammy Chung was King]

Got to get going come on Rovers!.

[drfchound]

Despite all that possession for AFCW they hadnt had an attempt on goal until that goal.
Yet another goal concede from a set piece against us.

[PDX_Rover]

Soft free kick. Player ran across him. Never a booking either. Ridiculous.

I still think we will win.

[deebee]

We haven't had a single shot either.

[RoversAlias]

It was so simple. Cross, header, goal.

We need to learn how to come from behind now. Very concerning.

[deebee]

Crew and Fleetwood both winning doesn't help.

[Jersey Rover]

GM set up negative again, Need more attacking mindset up front. Looks like he’s set up not to loose

[Wiltshire Exile]

We haven't had a single shot either.

Some things never change, eh?

[Copps is Magic]

Someone call the tennis club to tell them to expect some footballs arriving courtesy of Doncaster Rovers.

[Padge_DRFC]

Same as every game since Mcsheffery took over this. Absolute joke with the ball.

[IDM]

Every game.?  Be serious.!!

[Copps is Magic]

Dan Gardener can not pass a football.
