Nick - can't you have a sub forum entitled 'want to have an argument' where people can go to argue / go round in circles etc, whilst things like 'ticket thread' are left for people to discuss things like.... tickets.
One thing is for sure: Looking ahead, the future looks better for AFC Wimbledon than Coventry City. That puts our problems into context .
On that note, this season doesn’t yet have an iconic song.Well if the fans of AFC WIMBLEDON go to the MK DONS stadium to watch their team play then i can go and watch the mighty Sky Blues play at the MK DONS stadium.
"Kelly in the middle oh woah, never gives the ball awayyyy "
Not what I am saying.we have been ripped out of our community.
The comparison would be if a football club was taken from its traditional home and relocated to Coventry would I support them - the answer is no.
I wonder if there are any fans from SW London that follow MK despite Wimbledon.Not what I am saying.
If Coventry are relocated outside of Coventry and their community permanently would you still support them?
Just like some Wimbledon fans did with MK.
Well a few followed them when they moved so who knows.I wonder if there are any fans from SW London that follow MK despite Wimbledon.

I would class Mercedes Benz FC as "Dog and Duck", they were a group of factory workers who played Sunday league, geez, I can't believe 10k people weren't there to watch them play every week.Seems to me that when some people are losing an argument they start to throw insults around.
You never did come back to me,by the way, and say at which level the ‘Dog and Duck’ label kicks in.
Having read your replies which are above this one, it seems to be that it is okay for people in MK to support the Dons as there was no league club in the town, and the non- league team were at Dog and Duck level, so they don’t count, and the unfairness of the move and the distress to Wimbledon fans doesn’t count.
However, you feel it is not okay for the people of Coventry and Warwickshire to support Wasps as there was already a rugby club here who presumably were better than Dog and Duck level.
With MK fans you seem prepared to totally disregard the injustice of what happened to Wimbledon, even though you acknowledge it was wrong.
It must be my simple mind but I just can’t understand how you can have that view.
Don’t you have to collect all season tickets purchased now from the white hut at St. Andrews?Received my MK Dons tickets on Saturday, but not yet received my season ticket purchased on 27th Sept.
Put down the shovelI would class Mercedes Benz FC as "Dog and Duck", they were a group of factory workers who played Sunday league, geez, I can't believe 10k people weren't there to watch them play every week.
As I've stated many times over we had a 145 year old Rugby club at the heart of our community when Wasps moved in, MK obviously had nothing like that. Clearly we will have to agree to disagree although its staring you in the face that the 2 situations are different.
I have shown absolutely no disregard for Wimbledon fans, you're just making stuff up now. read further up, "I feel awful for what happened to Wimbledon fans and of course the move wasn't right", Ive echoed that sentiment throughout. However the football club is there and it will stay there, it is not the fans of MK who have caused this heartache.

3500 sold as of a few hours ago
Not a team that was ripped from the heart of its community.[/QUOT
They were close to defunct. Put it in the box marked "It's a tough old world" alongside Accrington Stanley (1962) and Maidstone (1992), and move on.
In the end football Clubs are not social services, they are just businesses with unusually fanatically loyal customers and weird business economicswe have been ripped out of our community.
The comparison would be if a football club was taken from its traditional home and relocated to Coventry would I support them - the answer is no.
Best fans in the country
Not really relevant is it? Maybe people don't want to watch our 'home' games in brumShame people can do MK Dons away but not Birmingham away though
But there's a differance berween 0ne game away in another town to 20 odd.Shame people can do MK Dons away but not Birmingham away though
Yeah like ticket sales come to our club rather than someone elseBut there's a differance berween 0ne game away in another town to 20 odd.
And?Yeah like ticket sales come to our club rather than someone else
Drop her in b and m car park or by it, park on the road and job done.And?
Well they should have thought of that loh yes forgot they did.
Thing is there are people who genuinely cant go to brum every week. We are taking an old lady on Sunday she was a season ticket holder at the ricoh even though she lives very close to the ground she still needed a lift to get there it was quite easy so she went to every game.
Now we have to leave really early so that we can drop her off at the ground before they close the roads, then one of us has to stay with her as the other one goes to find a parking space, then we have to wait for the road to reopen before we can pick her up again after the match makes for a very long day.
Dont really want to have to do that every week also cant make it every game.
What road?Drop her in b and m car park or by it, park on the road and job done.
Drop her by b&m and those shops and it's a very short walk. Then just dump the car wherever there's a space not on double yellowsWhat road?
Struggled to find somewhere close last game, all had time limit or resident parking took us 15 -20 minutes walk.(around Coventry road)
But there's a differance berween 0ne game away in another town to 20 odd.
As things stand their fans have more to look forward to than ours, a new stadium less than half a mile from pough lane. Maybe they might want to tempt wasps to share their stadium.That's right ADM, you put your money on AFC winning their next few games and see how quickly your opinion changes (and have a glance at the league table come the end of the season)
