No fans and you play in a hockey stadium about 80 miles from where you actually originate from!

you say it like its a negative... You're right it's very positive! we're playing the Mitlon keynes hockey XI in a pre-season game! Most Derby fans wanted it cancelled as a matter of principal! |

So are we  No idea why this is taking place, they've just been relegated from our league so we've had more than enough of the Franchise to last a lifetime. They narrowly beat us at their shack but it was very satisfying stuffing them 3 nil at home a few weeks later! ;D Every other club has called off their friendly with them this season, I don't see why only us two (of all clubs) are playing them! |

I have actually played on that pitch. I used to play at quite a high level in hockey and played on that very pitch once. Think MK hockey team were better than tha football team.

No fans and you play in a hockey stadium about 80 miles from where you actually originate from! Not strctly true no more.. What exists of the "wimbledon era"  New Badge New Name New Kit New Website New Owner New Manager New Players New Stadium NEW FANS [well most of them!] the only thing that exists is the trophies which MK Dons are trying to sort something out where they "clear" them from their history and are stored under Wimbledon Fc or transfered to AFC Wimbledon. This happened 3 or 4 yrs ago now, we have played them 6 times since then, the protests didnt help then and they will have no effect now. We have choosen them as a preseason friendly because 1. they are local, 2. they were in league 1 last season so play "league 1" style of football 3. we need to rectify the defeat suffered on the cold tuesday night. 4. If fans dont want to support them dont pay the entrance fee at League, Cup and Friendly matches against them!! |
