MK DONS Supporters

[surlyseagull]

When we were in the first division in the early 80's we didn't average 25000.
During our last years at the goldstone we only averaged 8000

Look times have changed football has changed.It is now a nicer environment to bring your kids to.

(What I am trying to say is that from the club we were in 97 when we left the goldstone to the club we are now is not a million miles
From MK DONS).

Whilst I might agree regarding a better environment as oppose to the hooligan era`s, I certainly cannot agree regarding us not being a million miles from MKDons .Our club is in no way remotely similar from 97 or any other year to MK Dons ,so therefore may I suggest a crash course in Albion history before tomorrow old chap.

Apart from death and taxes there are 2 other certainties, come 19th March 2016 MK Dons will be still be here and so will a very similar thread to this one

I can't blame anyone for supporting a team in the town they live in, just as I don't blame any of our new supporters who didn't fancy Withdean on a cold, wet day. Or didn't know you could get a ticket. Most of those fans weren't clamouring for league football as far as I remember. I don't even blame the loathsome Pete Winkelman, one of the slimiest and most unpleasant people I've ever met.

The fault lies with the football authorities who caved in and allowed a club of long standing and rich tradition in its home borough to move. Had they resisted, then Winkelman and company might have got behind a non-league club in the MK area and done things properly. And Merton Borough Council, who refused to lift a finger to help the original Wimbledon to find a site for a new stadium.

Agreed. You can hardly blame the entertainment starved people of Milton Keynes for turning up to watch and it's not their fault that the Football League and Merton Council were so useless about it. I agree with those who say that they should make a clean break now and drop the "Dons" part of their name, but I hope that Albion fans won't be pathetic and give their fans abuse about being "plastic".

Most of them from MK supported other Clubs ,then MK came along with a new stadium and hey presto .

Imagine that......

This is true, but the myth that it was always sold out persisted.
I spoke to someone I used to work with, must have been about 2008, and he was very surprised to learn that he could get a ticket quite easily if he wanted to.

I remember around 2001-2004 I used to send SAE in for my withdean tickets - always got one and did most games.

The only thing I care about when it comes to MK Dons is whether Atilla ever paid up on his bet with that Cardiff fan?

This guy has too much time on his hands.

I see they do it to all clubs they play, must have a chip on their shoulders to see who hates them most.

Who gives a shit

All I will say is that during our last few years at the goldstone we averaged less than 7000 then 14 years of ground hoping later we arrive at our amazing new stadium and hey presto we are averaging 25000.

How many fans that Watch us at the Amex ever went to withdean.

I was with you a bit till the last sentence. Can't believe a Brighton fan would say that because of course most Brighton fans knew how tricky it was to get to watch them at the Withdean, an obvious point which some NON Brighton fans seem to be ignorant about.

One of them 'used to like Brighton and now hates us' from a few comments on a message board? Pathetic

and as for: "Brighton have always hated us though. Which is fine. Because they're irrelevant."

Delusions of grandeur surpassing Reading's from a few on their board, and that takes some doing.
