Title: Poor Afc Wimbledon

Bloody FA have pissed me off big style with their treatment of AFC the Fans club. It seems as they told the FA to go and fu@k themselves when they tried to ruin the club and up sticks to MK the FA have had it in for AFC Wimbledon. Starting off in the Combined Counties league they have since risen to the Ryman Premier Division on average croweds of over 2500. This season had been their best yet winning away at Gravesend and Aldershot from the Conference in the FA Trophy and also going up to 3rd in the Ryman League - so the FA realised a player hadnt been given international clearence to play for them despite being born in England and playing in Cardiff so decided tio strip them off all the Trophy prize money - their rightful place in the last 16 and all 18 points acclumalted when this player joined them- what absolute scum the FA are. I hate them more by the day and they area still paying Sven Boring Erickson £10k a day . Whitewash all the bung claims from the premiership and fu@k the little clubs sometimes I wonder whats the point. Its a disgrace. I do have a soft spot for AFC Wimbledon as do a lot of true fans and really feel for them.

Yeah I hear about this. From promotion favourites to mid table no hopers.
A real kick in the teeth.

Stupid rule, but unfortunately rules are rules (That's what the FA will say anyway). There prepared to deduct points for something as ridiculous as this but not for players brawling on the pitch etc.

Makes me sick. Got a bit of AFC in me myself, went to watch them on Saturday in fact. Geat game, great fans. Their appealing to no ends I hear, and'll probably go to the EU court of something or other for sport as their last resort. Everyones confident it'll be overturned.
Similar to the West Ham situation, but they'll never get 18 points deducted!

What a load of shite.
Very lickely their going to take ALL of west hams points away since theyve had T&M and punish chelsea for tapping up.
Group of absolute ****** with no bollocks at all.

Done - deadline bing 3 September this year doesnt really help their plight for this season. I recall in 1999 West ham fielding an ineliglble (or however you spell it ) player and having to repaly Villa in Leauge Cup not kicked out but as I have said before one rule for big boys and one rule for the small clubs.
