We examine the ensuing years of division, the symbolic renunciation of history by MK Dons, and the enduring emotional weight every fixture carries for both sets of fans. Tune in to understand why this is one of English football's most compelling and complex narratives, a true battle for the soul of a club.

In the mid-1970s, Wimbledon FC were an amateur football side that couldn't afford training cones, so they stole them from the nearby highway. But the club was going about to go on one of the greatest runs of any team in sport, rising from the bottom to the top, and they did it with a crazy owner, manager and a bunch of players who would become known simply as ‘the crazy gang'.

In 1996 there was a concerted attempt to relocate the then Premier League club Wimbledon FC to Dublin. When the club became homeless in 1991, owner Sam Hammam had the idea to move the Dons to Dublin. In the end the FAI and FIFA blocked the move, and Wimbledon ended up moving to Milton Keynes, later to be renamed to MK Dons. Specs Gonzalez is joined by co-host Tego Sigel and Ciaran Carlin to discuss what would have happened if Wimbledon had become the Dublin Dons. Would Wimbledon become Premier League Champions? Does Dublin become the number one city in Europe? Do Wimbledon become an elite European team? As always Specs has all the answers inside the world of his imagination.

OCTOBER 3rd 2021: Belmont Banter Episode 81 JAKE GESS: Official podcast of Whitstable Town F.C. The early years for Jake were playing with his brother using two dustbins and a scaffold board for a goal around where he lived in Hales Place. He played school and district football until the age of eleven when he was picked up by Wimbledon FC after taking part in a trial at Kennington FC. He stayed at Wimbledon until he was released at sixteen and the disappointment knocked his confidence until he joined the Kent side, which he says he…” walked into”. He then played at Littlebourne FC and Canterbury U18's for two years up until at nineteen, he then decided to take a year out and just played Sunday football. Jake saying that the ‘disappointment of not progressing affected him for years and at one stage he received twelve yellow cards in one season'.  He then joined Whitstable Town playing in the reserves under the then manager Simon Kay for a year before being asked to join the first team where Marc Seager was manager. Saying that… ‘Simon installed confidence in him and ‘Seags' was a great man manager, the two of them brought out the best in me'. I had those great three seasons or so, Seags left and my form dropped off. He tells a great story about an end of season trip to Spain when he was at Town, leaving out some of the more 'interesting' bits.  Simon Halsey who was by then Herne Bay manager asked him to join them where he stayed for a season and a half. He then joined Canterbury City for nearly three years which he enjoyed.  He then joined Deal Town for a while then finished up his football at Deal Sports which he said he enjoyed on a par with his time at Whitstable but added, that it was just with his mates, it was fun…Check it out; even if you're not involved in WTFC it's another great listen from Belmont Banter Podcast.

Det bästa och det sämsta med den gamla engelska fotbollen. Inga andra har klättrat från gyttjan till stjärnorna som Wimbledon. Utan stopp, utan gränser på gott och ont. Fotbollen har aldrig sett något som ”The Crazy Gang”.

The UK's Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis has said that Jeremy Corbyn is unfit for high office over his handling of anti-Semitism in the Labour party. Rabbi Mirvis said that "The way in which the leadership has dealt with anti-Jewish racism is incompatible with the British values of which we are so proud - of dignity and respect for all people. It has left many decent Labour members both Jewish and non-Jewish, ashamed of what has transpired."The Evening Standard's Joe Murphy joins The Leader Podcast from Westminster to discuss what this means for the Labour party's election campaign.Up to 25,000 train services — thousands more than first forecast — face cancellation in the 27-day walkout by South Western Railway (SWR) train staff which starts next Monday. Industrial action will affect all services to and from mainline Waterloo, the London's busiest station and is predicted to cost businesses up to £400m. Strikes will disrupt commuters travelling into the city and affect Christmas party goers with some services stopping as early as 10pm. Our editorial column thinks the strike should be stopped.AFC Wimbledon has been owned by its supporters since it was set up in 2002 when the former Wimbledon FC was uprooted from south London to eventually become MK Dons. AFC Wimbledon have most recently been playing in Kingston-upon-Thames but from day one the dream has been to go back to where the fans call home – Plough Lane. If all goes to plan this is likely to happen - if they can source the money. The Evening Standard's Simon Collings is out of the newsroom chasing the story and joins The Leader podcast.

Our host Tom fell in love with AFC Wimbledon when he lived in London. He – and thousands of others – are co-owners of the fan-owned club that has become the success story of a football club owned by and driven by fans. Wimbledon FC was robbed and kidnapped from its community and moved to Milton Keynes about 100 kilometers north of Wimbledon. A group of fans reacted straight away and started AFC Wimbledon. But they were forced to start in the ninth tier of the English football pyramid. Since then it’s been an amazing journey and after six promotions the club is now in League 1. The same league where the club that was stolen and shouldn’t exist – MK – play. This week Tom has gone back to Wimbledon and meets up with AFC Wimbledon commercial director Ivor Heller – and old friends from the stands.

Tom forelskede sig i AFC Wimbledon, da han boede i London. Han – og mange tusinde andre fans– er medejere af klubben, der vel er den største succeshistorie om fans, der ejer og driver en fodboldklub. Wimbledon FC blev stjålet af rigmænd, der ville have et fodboldstation ved siden af en IKEA i Milton Keynes omkring 100 kilometer nord for Wimbledon. En gruppe fans startede prompte AFC Wimbledon men var tvunget til at starte i den niende bedste række. Siden er det gået forrygende, og klubben er rykket op seks gange. I dag spiller de i League 1,  hvor Milton Keynes – klubben, der ikke burde eksistere - også spiller. I denne uge er Tom taget tilbage til Wimbledon og besøger klubbens kommercielle direktør, Ivor Heller, og gamle venner fra tribunen.

Í þætti vikunnar fara Þorgeir og Þórhallur yfir stöðu mála í neðri deildunum á Englandi. Þeir taka létta yfirferð á liðunum og töluðu um menninguna í Championship-deildinni. Þá töluðu þeir helst um hvernig lið bregðast við því að falla úr ensku úrvalsdeidinni. Auk þess fóru þeir yfir þrjú hötuðustu lið Englands sem eru öll hötuð fyrir misjafnar sakir. Leeds United er líklega hataðasta liðið á Englandi, þá aðallega fyrir grófa spilamennsku undir þjálfaranum Don Revie á 8. áratugnum. Þrátt fyrir að mörg ár eru liðin síðan þá hefur hatrið í garð Leeds haldist. Millwall eru hataðir fyrir sína litríku stuðningsmenn sem eru þeir grófustu á Englandi og hafa lengi verið til vandræða í stúkunni. Þeir hafa oft verið ofbeldisfullir í garð annara stuðningsmanna og sett svartan blett á sögu síns liðs. MK Dons eru hataðir fyrir slappa tilraun klúbbsins til þess að koma í stað Wimbledon FC sem varð gjaldþrota 2004. Það ár tóku MK Dons pláss Wimbledon í enska deildarstiganum en núna eru þeir og AFC Wimbledon (stofnað af áðdáendum Wimbledon FC) bæði í sömu deild. Að lokum fóru þeir yfir lukkudýramenninguna og um merkilegasta lukkudýr neðri deildanna en það er enginn annar en H'angus the Monkey sem er lukkudýr fyrir Hartepool á Englandi. Bakgrunnur apans sem lukkudýrið og saga mannsins í búningi lukkudýrsins eru lygilegar.

Klubben som inte finns är på väg upp. För 12 år sedan såldes, kapades, kultstämplade Wimbledon FC och flyttades tio mil norrut, till nybyggarstaden Milton Keynes. Ur inget bildades en ny förening, AFC Wimbledon. Om ett par veckor kan de vara ikapp sin egen historia, vara uppe i samma serie som den ursprungliga klubben. Följ med på ett besök hos supporterklubben som är på gränsen till att ta ett nytt historiskt kliv, till tredjedivisionen. Hör om historien, möt nutiden och kika in i framtiden. Supportrar om kärleken till föreningen, ordföranden Erik Samuelson om den nya arenan - och den ständiga matchen mot verkligheten. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
