just caught the end of an interview with Mr Winkleman of MK Dons admitting his last two choices of manager were wrong! Well done to him for having the b***s to admit it on TV!

Can’t stand the franchise that is Milton Keynes Dons. Even the name sounds so fake and wrong. Hope they carry on sliding into oblivion

Crap reason to be a football club in EFL

If you want a place, please earn it rather than buy it....

FGR over MK Dons any day for me. FGR have been around a long time and had a loyal if small supporter base which saw them rise through the Pyramid. Obviously the Vince thing is a bit....... but if you're from MK and support MK Dons the big question is, why the fcuk did you not support the proper MK clubs?

Be great to have AFC in a league above them, so hope they stay up. I won't go to MK either, looks like we'll have Northampton if stay up, we should boycott MK and fill the away end there instead.

Also the egg franchise at Coventry is just as bad - don't buy anything in the Ricoh - Wasps get the income from food and beverage sales.

Hopefully we'll be in the same division next season. I will not acknowledge them, nor will I set foot inside their ground. If we play them in a cup game at any point, as receipts are shared, I will not attend. That rat faced toad Winkelman is reaping what he sows and it is wonderful to see.

Can't agree with that. I think he's more of a toad-faced rat.

Can’t get this boycott business . Let’s make our point by stuffing them twice next season if we meet. Most league one teams have been doing it this season we’ve got to hope next won’t be any different

Providing we stay up and fans decide to boycott the MK Dons game, I suppose you will at least be able to get your roundabouts fix with a trip to Swindon.

I get the sentiment but surely better to travel and support OUR team in this instance. Town fans who rightly feel disgust at what went on can for instance produce and wear a GTFC/AFC Wimbledon t-shirt and all the money raised from sales could be split 50/50 for the respective YDA ?

MK Dons is my local football team and if we stay up and they get relegated I will definitely be going. I do occasionally go to Dons games, if a friend's team is playing them, but I always go in the away end. I think boycotting them at this stage is a somewhat pointless gesture. Yes I wish they didn't exist, but given that they have now been eclipsed and overtaken by Wimbledon, it feels like justice has been served.

That’s dangerously close to a half and half scarf mate. !!!!

I don`t normally approve but this would be a worthy exception what happened to the real Dons was shameful given their history in winning the FA Cup.

Maybe that`s the way to go a huge Town turnout with Harry the Haddock to symbolise the spirit of the FA Cup and the Real Dons achievement whilst also reminiscing about one of our glorious failures ;D

I totally get the boycotting of the Donuts if you're so inclined.... talking of cup games though, what was the situation with the gate receipt money from our JPT game at Wembley with them?

On that occasion I guess if there was a percentage split it was to Town's advantage seeing as though they had more fans plastic supporters than we did on the day

It's nothing to do with fans, I believe the split is 40 percent to both clubs, 20 percent to the FA or something like that. I must admit, I did go to that game so I am a bit of a snake. Don't know why it didn't occur to me I was directly financing them.

Over 700 Dons went to MK this season, so if we're in the same division, I might well do the same.

I wasn't pointing any fingers Vicar... and as I said we probably ended up more in pocket from their "support" than any benefit they might have had from ours

I don't think anyone could have not gone to that first game at the new Wembley.... we didn't know at the time that we'd drop out of the league and be back again every year or two not long afterwards
