Well, evidently I was wrong, I just phoned iFollow on +44 207 826 4577 and they told me that it will not be available on smart TV's.

Merton Borough council are as much to blame if not more than anyone for the demise of Wimbledon F.C. . If they had backed their 1st division club and allowed them to relocate in the borough rather than force them out for years and basically bankrupt the club the whole MK thing wouldn’t even have happened.

Unfortunately our council may do the same to gtfc in the end

Quoted from MarinerMal
I can't stand the fact they stole somebody's football club and got away with it.

They are the club I despise more than any other.

There is not much I can do about their existence but I refuse to do anything that could put any of my money in their coffers.

However, it's a personal choice. I wouldn't tell anyone else they shouldn't go. As for acknowledging they exist if you go, I believe enough Town fans already did that at Wembley 2008.


Did they steal or step in at the last minute and save the club?  Either way its a long time ago, time to move on. I am working close by this week so looking  forward to going

Stole 100%. They didn't "save" the football club at all, they just took their place in the Football League.

If a football club hits financial ruin, then they go out  of existence and their place is filled via promotion and relegation through the Football League and ultimately someone from the National League will step in to the vacated Football League slot the next season.

For my money, MK Dons should announce they are reforming, start at the bottom of the Football League pyramid from next season and work their way back into the Football League.

Only then will I acknowledge them as a proper Football Club rather than a club that should be flying the skull and crossbones over their stadium.

But that is just my opinion and I'm not telling you or anyone else that they should agree with me or not.

I am in the area with work, so looking forward to it.  I believe you can just roll up and buy a ticket?
Hope to see something of Thomas and Hendrie, and also how we fare against another one of the "money" clubs

There was a club in MK at the time they moved Wimbledon to the city. That club was put out of business!

Totally and utterley against everything MKD stand for. Support this and who is to say in 15 years time that Grimsby Town could not be moved to Cornwall to give them a FL club.

No problem with individuals going to support Town, I cannot make it myself, but that doesnt mean to say we are in favour of their creation and feel all football fans should unite to ensure it never ever happens again

Moving to Cornwall may be the answer to the new ground problem

Just read up a bit more and I suppose they should have been treated like Glasgow rangers even though they weren't forced completely out of the league.

Complete agree with Cloudy, Winkleman should have got involved with the existing MK club,and worked there way up through the league, instead of buying a league position.

The Football league and the FA are the ones to blame in my eyes should never have let it happen.
