    Used to like the evening games under the lights always seemed a more electric atmosphere. The west bank sounded so much noiser and steaming down the terrace when we scored was magic ! 🎉 Unforgettable

    Big respect for Wimbledon,
    I was routing for them when fighting to get back in the divisions.
    Always had a good transfer relationship with my Millwall over the years and some good matches, we was sorry to see you go but happy to have you back.

    This is incredible and very moving. Thanks so much for making this amazing film and feels like the 'mouse that roared'. Valuable lessons here for everyone that wants to maintain communities and cohesion locally. AFC Wimbledon! Amazing.

    Amazing stories, especially 9-1 as a first game (Wimbledon Ladies also won by this scoreline away last season) and Stephen Crabtree from My Life As A Don in all the matchday programmes.

    I played there in the sixties when we won the schools London cup (2 nil I think, can't recall the opposition but I saved a penalty in the semi against weybridge) and terry bullivan was in the team before signing for fulham. The changing rooms were really basic, but the atmosphere electric. pity to see the incredible, irrational overreactions but emotions go deep of course. Thanks for a great video of a rollercoaster

    Glad to see Mick Pugh in here. he taught me at Rutlish, and was one of the few teachers there that really gave a toss about the kids. Got told years ago that he had died, and was genuinely gutted. Watched this and was totally made up. hope you're doing well Mr Pugh.

      I'm sure he taught at Eastfields for a short time . He was asked during a lesson ' what team do you support?' & he replied with ' the only unbeaten team in the top 4 divisions! ' I was chuffed as we didn't really have a big fanbase then
      Great days 😁

    That day in Manchester. The moment Danny scored, still the best day of my life.

    I remember seeing Wimbledon vs Southampton in 1985-86, when Peter Shilton elbowed John Fashanu TWICE, getting away with it both times, my brother and I were stunned (neither of us are WFC fans)

    Great video but why do afc Wimbledon fans insist they won the fa Cup in 1988 etc when it was Wimbledon fc a different club? I know they are called Wimbledon but they can't claim glory for stuff thetdidnt do, it's like me and some blokes getting some shirts made up ,calling ourselves after Liverpool and claiming 5 euros and 20 championships lol

      You must be a chav,
      They are the same fans from the same area playing football built up from the original stadium, they're probably more Wimbledon now then they've ever been.
      There's an old saying and you're probably too young to know of it,
      Never is there a chairman bigger then the club and Never is there a club bigger then the fans.
      I'm not even a Wimbledon fan, but most clubs can only look on in administration to Wimbledon for being a small club with such a big heart big enough to come back from the dead.
      If MK mongs ever get in financial troubles down then line, long down the line like most clubs who have lasted and sat in the tables for over hundred years then I very much doubt MK would have the bollocks and passion to come back.

      Liverpool fc exists. The fans are the club. What is your favourite sport? I know it's not football. Your knowledge is meager.

      Because a team is not a legal entity a team is a community.
