I'm amazed. No Salford City. Big blow to their finances

Not sure about that. I was involved with the FSF when it ‘brokered’ a deal between AFC Wimbledon and MKD (though I wasn’t involved in the deal) and it was said then the Middle East troubles would have been easier to sort out….
At the time there was a boycott of away fans going to MK home games.
The deal was sealed when MKD accepted to not use Wimbledon’s history as their own and to hand back the FA Cup trophy over to Merton Council (who stuck it in on display in Wimbledon Library) and in return AFC Wimbledon dropped the action of asking away fans of all clubs to boycott MKD home games.

There was a lot of anger for sure, but Wimbledon would have fallen down the leagues and may have gone bust had they not moved. The real fuck up was the authorities allowing them to move so far. There are also stories of the club loaning out decent players to avoid promotion to the Prem at one stage as that financial boost could have diminished the need to move.
 
Anyone going to Curzon - Mansfield as I'm planning to - just noticed that the kick off time is 2pm
Maybe to avoid putting the floodlights on or something
