OK, rather than starting an argument about no excuses or there are excuses, can we not just drum up support for this one?

It's a massive away end with pretty much  as many tickets as we want, there aren't too many away days like this one in league two so text/call your mates, brothers,sisters, the father in law or who ever.
Get the big flags out and bring your voices for GM and the lads.

That good stuff Nudga suggests, plus Wins v Gillingham and Harrogate (surely we have to beat them eventually) could make for quite a following and some day out.

Well I haven't been to an away match since Rotherham a couple of years back (carnage) apart from Rotherham for this pre seasons friendly, which I'm not counting, and it's wet my appetite. Will see what the troops think. A ground I've never done, albeit a plastic one that shouldn't exist.

This team shouldn't exist and nobody should give them a minute of their time , we all know that they 'stole' their place in the football pyramid and by going to their stadium we are condoning that action.

Sheff utd turned it into a home match. The scenes were amazing.

What a ridiculous statement.
Why not look at it another way and by going you may get to see your team beat a team that you don’t agree with being in the football league.

Apologies but I can't miss my son's birthday party.

On MK, at what point do we normalise them.  A lot of the fans there now will have been born after they moved and are supporting their local team and that's better than someone from MK supporting Spurs isn't it?

Talk about cutting our noses off to spite our faces.

While we're at it, let's not watch a single Rovers away game on Sky, because once upon a time it was owned by Rupert Murdoch.

Or better still, let's not support Rovers at all because the owner has donated money in the past to the Tory Party.

Talk about living in the past!
They are now a club in their own right with promotions and relegations, as are AFC Wimbledon now back at a vastly improved Plough Lane.

What a stupid statement.
So it would be better for donny to run out and see that fans havent bothered to come and support them

I don’t think anyone can have a gripe with MK folks watching their local team - it’s not their fault how their club came to be..

For the best timed trains (arriving around 2pm to get a pint before, and leaving around 5.30pm to allow for added time) it’s way less. £120 return.

Get a Donny to London return and London to Milton Keynes return can do it below £100.
If your too old for a railcard and going with a mate get a two together card it's £15 each you will get a 1/3 off straight away on the prices and you've got it for 12 months.

We went last season to "tick it off"  Pleasantly surprised by the whole set up. Don't think we'll make it this time but good to see them using initiatives that help local fans and us away fans

Yes, still within London.  Had the original Wimbledon FC remained the same entity but just played in MK, the issue would be different.

I’m torn on this one.  I am very much against how MK franchises a FL place and haven’t considered going in the intervening 20 years.

However, I support Doncaster Rovers and if I go it’s to watch MY team.  Plus it’s about an hour away for us, irrespective of the ticket price.

I’m going this time. Never been before. I’ve never been to MK at all apart from passing through on a train.

They will be unpopular for a long time I suspect. But it’s time to accept them, wish them well developing their club and move on. On 2 conditions:

1. Franchise moves of football clubs never happens again.
2. They remove ‘Dons’ from their name. That belongs to Wimbledon fans in English football (Aberdeen in Scotland and our own Dons in rugby league).

No,but they are/was both based in Wimbledon and both earned their league places through hard work and promotion,MK Dons did'nt,they bought it.

As regards pricing,thats great and Im getting on the blower soon and hopefully a few of us will be going to this now that was'nt up to now.
