If the fans desperately wanted a football team, they should maybe have stuck to one of their own.
The dads could have taken their kids along and watched a club grow organically and be proud of it, rather than stealing one from Merton just because they didn't have a team with a place in the League themselves.
Moral compass crap gets thrown around a lot more on here for poeple attending Sixfields, with accusations that they are supporting the franchising of football by doing so, but then proudly say how many they are going to take to a genuine franchise team in the league.
2250 sold for MK Dons
Going to a game of football does not make that person a bad person. It's a matter of perspective, lost on quite a few here.
Just getting a bit fed up with some of the double standards - nothing new I know and nothing exclusive to this site, but every now and again it gets a tad tiresome.
As am I, which is why the MK Dons is ok/Northampton is bad is such a good example of it.
The same who will call people scabs for going to Northampton because it's "franchising" the club, and taking them out of their home town also proudly talk about the numbers that will go to Milton Keynes(whilst also saying that it has nothing to do with us, and complaining that nobody shows any solidarity with us).
I bet you can't give one example of somebody who is going to MKs that has complained of lack of solidarity towards us from other fans.
That would be so nonsensical I refuse to believe it.
Just for the record ive never been to stadium mk and i never will.
Getting 3 tickets later this week. I'm hoping that we take a bumper following
Wouldn't disagree, but seems like there will be about 6000 hypocrites going to MK Dons too.
Good for you, at least consistent.
Won't go to either MK or Sixfields myself, though peoples own choice whether they do or not.
I'm really confused by this- and am genuinely interested in views but will use Lordsummer isle as the focal point (sorry LSI but your two statements above seem to conflict as read?)...
CCFC fans stand accused of hypocrisy in that they do not go to Sixfields by way of protest (NOPM or other) and yet plan to go to MK Dons thus seemingly endorsing franchise football- but those CCFC fans who go to Sixfields (despite not agreeing with the ground share/move) are not hypocrites and are merely expressing their right to support their team?
I’m not an attendee of Sixfields nor ever will be, but am genuinely considering going to MK Dons but my conscience is troubled by the hypocrisy dilemma posed by LSI and others.

We will - 6000 people with questionable morals!!! All from the same club... We are the worst!!

AFC Wimbledon took 3,000 to milton keynes, have they got questionable morals. They have moved on and formed a new team. We should support them and our team at milton keynes with a big support and get the 3 points.
Is this debate still going on? Have a word with yourselves FFS. Once you've done that, go and buy a ticket for MK Dons away and stop being so wet.
The palace must be busy sending out telegrams this year to london, were they old enough to understand the situtation of what was going onThis is apparently not a valid point, you can never ever forgive a club moving, even if it's own (previous incarnations) fans have. That's why none of these people would go to an Arsenal game since their move from Woolwich in 1913.

According to Twitter we have sold 2,250.
Gonna be perfectly honest, don't give two shits about what happened to wimbledon so am happily going to mk
not usually in agreement with you Mr valiant but this is bang on.Im frankly astonished that a football fan can come out with a statement like that. For all you know ccfc might be in the early stages of being franchised.
Im sure you'd give a shit then.

Coventry City will NOT be franchised. The MK Dons scenario is completely different and will never happen again.

Back on topic, I bought my tickets yesterday online. from the "pick your seats" there were 4 blocks, blocks 1 and 2 sold out, block 3 had only single seats (and only about 5) left. bloack 4 (where I got mine) had about 30 seats left tops.
