In the 1980s, Wimbledon FC completed an incredible rise to the top-flight, only years after being a non-league side. Their side was known as the crazy gang, and whilst they were disliked by many, they were certainly unforgettable.

Sheer brilliance. We need Wimbledons now, Colourful and had a talented squad that never get the credit deserved.
I would thoroughly recommend visiting AFC Wimbledon, excellent experience
It's amazing they stayed in the Premier League for so many seasons without a home ground. I've always liked AFC Wimbledon and think it was shocking what happened to them (The original Wimbledon)
Agreed, so glad they have a new home now, I went there and it was a great experience
That was beautiful man. That last bit about avenging our father of Wimbledon FC who was murdered in Milton Keynes gave me goosebumps. Beautifully poetic. Big Love Finners
Great video! Now I get why so many people dislike Mk Dons😅
This was back in the days of satellite TV. I saw one match of this team and was afraid they were going to hurt someone, but fascinated that they were almost playing rugby. They flew around the pitch with a reckless abandon I have seldom witnessed since. Thanks for telling the story Finners.
The definition of shithouses haha, must have been something to see
Five of us went to the Final in Phil Bergann’s Van…all piling out to put bets in for 1-0 in the bookies in Earlsfield. The effort to destroy the best team on the planet was immense and to be applauded forever
Wimbledon’s rise occurred right when I left the UK for America in the early 80’s, so I knew nothing about it. Back then, football news and games of any kind were impossible to get in the US. At least now we can get all the EPL games and cup finals. An expat watching in S Florida.
Old Plough Lane was a great leveller 💙💛
Best cup final ever ...I was 8 years old and still upset about 86 . I ran around to my cousins house to scream ...WIMBLDON ! and was cheased down the path by my uncle. It couldnt havent to a more deserving club !
I miss Wimbledon from the 80s .. loved it when you won the fa cup.. commentators were crying 🤣🤣🤣
Very well made my friend
Thank you
@@afcfinners no problem I learned about them in reverse because I’m American and saw Vinnie Jones in gone in 60 seconds as a kid.
@@walkermorgan1710 I love him in Snatch
Would love to see a team of technical limited fighters today who just don't give a fuck and just play what they can: hard football that causes fear in other teams.😂
But this will never come back.
November,floodlight, rain, muddy pitch and a war on the field. Real olfschool football😂
They were the Sex Pistols of English football.
🤣🤣🤣 I'll take that!! COYDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!🔵🟡🔵🟡
Jones was a disgrace to football
Hes got that clough story from Norm on under the cosh
