You have literally summed up my thoughts through the entire game when they occasionally piped up. Embarrassed for them with some of the half audible (generic) songs they sang. They're not even football supporters in my book and I refuse to recognise them as a real football club. The fact we had 10k or so home fans there for a ressie team game against a lower league 'club' means it will be a game of little atmosphere.
Oh and anyone who 'clapped' their attendance at the end need to learn some football history.

Wrong comparison as it was their first team - they wouldn't know or care what team we were putting out. But yes we'd take around that to a cup Fixture there I'm sure so there isn't a direct comparison to the league game. The fact is they're MK Franchise and they don't have the right to sing any songs about shit support or loyal supporters - ever.
On a side note you can tell they're an invented football club they literally have a handful of songs and even their signing sounds odd. And I've watched many episodes of MK Fan TV to draw these conclusions.

I was working this morning, and- to my general astonishment- saw a guy in an MK Dons shirt walking around Polegate. Didn't expect that.
I know I should be over the whole MK thing by now, but to be honest, they still grate with me. And for them to start singing- to ANY club- that their support is "****ing shit" is an absolute liberty. These are people who could have supported any number of clubs in their region, who could have supported their local non-league side, but who chose to latch on to an artificially created sham of a club. Their stadium is (one third) filled by people on free schools tickets waving foam hands and clapping along like they're watching an episode of Gladiators, c.1990.
That said, I do hope those hatstands from MK Dons Fans TV turned up today. I can't wait to see what those spotty idiots thought
I could clearly see the **** in the hat - well I'm 90% sure it was him. Yellow away shirt and blazer over the top, hat and had his arms folded standing up - just behind the goal. Would have got a selfie if I'd seen him outside

If I was a mod, I'd ban you for a week for that comment alone. And I'm not joking.

I walked past Spoons in West Street after the game on the way to the cinema with my 17 yr old and saw what was probably the same 'firm' as you describe. Dear oh dear, they were pitiful. They looked so tragic that I reckon my son could have held his own against them and he's 5'9'', about 9 stone and your typical middle-class 'never had a fight in his life' glasses-wearing teenager!
It's a crying shame that they seem to have given up making videos. MK Dons Fans TV was one of the greatest things on the internet ever. Just off to check YouTube on the off chance that it's been resurrected......

And if we took a few to an away prem tie who played their second string and had a half full stadium of fans not singing our lot would do the same as MK fans did today.

Bullshit. At 12 quid a ticket we would have had a couple of thousand, minimum. It's a doddle to get to.

What grates the most with me about MK Dons was the total lack of consideration shown by the Football League towards Northampton Town and Luton. It's just not right that a club can magically be created bang smack in the middle of their catchment areas and the same division as one and above the other. Not surprising though seeing as the league hates teams like Luton and Millwall and clearly doesn't care about the small unfashionable teams like Northampton.
I think I saw these guys at the station. I had to chuckle at their clothes, it's like they'd watched a video of what a firm should look like and made a vague attempt at copying it. One guy was wearing a zip-up Ellesse top, I have to admit I didn't know Ellesse still existed.
They were chanting things like:
"We're the real Wimbledon"
"We won the cup in 88"
Bellends.

Even if we were at the arse end of league one playing a team in the division above us?
I would give 5 minutes applause to the fans from Wimbledon who stuck with their club through it all.

Do you mean the ones that travelled up to Milton Keynes for all the home matches, or the ones that started a new club?

MK is a growing city and on population terms fully warrants a football league team.
It is just that Winkelman went about it the wrong way and should have started from scratch like AFC.
Methinks that the property deals around the stadium would not have happened if they were in the vanarama so it was an exercise driven by money and vanity. In 5 years time, the stadium will probably end up in the ownership of Northampton Saints so that they can compete with the Wasps franchise up the road.

What goal?

The South goal with a view to from the West Stand. If we're being pedantic just to the left of the goal as you're facing it.

This flag actually annoyed me - some **** has our great county associated with that franchise of a 'club'
