How did MK Dons remain in the Football League (2 Viewers)

[Voice_of_Reason]

Just wondering the scenario when MK Dons bought Wimbledon.. how did they move from South London to Milton Keynes and stay in the Football League. Could CCFC do something similar and move to a new location ? Not sure how it worked or if our situation is the same.

MK Dons were given special permission to move when the FA had to vote to break its own rules in allowing it.

After it the FA said they would nver do it again.

And what similar size town without a football league team, do you envisage welcoming us with open arms?

if i remember it right...the FA actually said no, but Winkleman/ koppel appealed and an independant appeals panel said yes
