Starting from scratch (4 Viewers)

Do you think the fans will ever form a club as AFC Wimbledon did, if things continue in the same direction?

I would certainly not switch while the club in still in existence. The dons situation was slightly unique as they physically moved 150 miles up north, having said that you have the Manchester Utd breakaway club but do not have a fraction of support that AFC Wimbledon have.

Half of me would think it would be really exciting having 6K loyal fans and starting again but we would soon miss the dizzy heights of the championship!!!

While the club is still in existence and in the Championship it would be stupid to do something like that. If Cov does go completely tits up, say down to the Blue Square Premier or even no longer existing, then definitely would be a good idea. But to do it now would be ridiculous.

Or even the dizzy depths
 
Lets say the situation with sisu get worse, they refuse to leave. The majority of the squad leave. We get relagated a few leagues. The club is generally terribly run.

Still, non of you would consider it?

At the end of the day it would still be the same club. Unless we went completely bust and didn't exist like Wimbledon then I wouldn't bother.

They average slightly higher gates than AFC Wimbledon during the FA Cup run, actually...and higher league gates until the last 2 seasons.

It's have to be something like that to justify it: they've just changed the regulations so that "re-start clubs" can no longer start as high up the pyramid. We'd be in the Midland Alliance, at best. To those wondering, that's 3 divisions below where Nuneaton are now, and a division below where they re-formed.
