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.
