AFC Wimbledon Still Building For The Future


 
Never mind ‘Kids For A Quid’ say AFC Wimbledon. The Dons are offering free football to Under-18’s for their home game against Accrington Stanley on Saturday 12 October.

The whole of the Your Golf Travel terrace has been set aside for home supporters with adult tickets in that area just £10.


The story of AFC Wimbledon’s birth and rise has plenty more chapters to be written yet and the club seem to be coping well with what can sometimes be conflicting aims. Establishing themselves as a Football League club while maintaining the community ethos and sense of fan ownership that has helped to get them this far.

The next of those chapters may well be the building of a new stadium, back in the borough of Merton and close to the Plough Lane home of the side that made such a startling rise through the ranks of English football in the 1980’s.


In the meantime, offers such as the one detailed above are very much in keeping with the ideals that the Dons were born with.


Affordable Football aims to bring you the special offers, reduced ticket prices and family deals that make catching a match anywhere in the country more affordable. You can tweet us @affordablefooty or email affordablefootball@yahoo.com if your club are doing something worth hearing about.


This weekend sees Notts County take on Crewe Alexandra at Meadow Lane with prices slashed to encourage stayaway fans back to watch the Magpies in action. The club are working overtime to make the day a success and have produced a poster that can be downloaded and displayed in shops, workplaces, pubs and anywhere it will be noticed.
