7-2 Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 trying too hard This occurs when someone attempts to prove how they possess a perceived desirable quality by over-exerting themselves which results in the quality appearing unnatural and contrived. Generally, the response to this action is negative and has the opposite effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herman Hessian Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 i'll be there next month; tried to go a few years ago, and the fucking car broke down actually inside the dartford tunnel - caused massive chaos and congestion ! as it stands, both them and wimbledon may well go down - a similar double relegation next season would be richly amusing....

Brummie Clyde Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Whilst it would be funny to see them go down, I don’t think it would spell the end for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went there 7/8 years ago for a pre-season friendly with Birmingham. Great ground and friendly club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would you want both teams to be relegated....one team has entered the league in the correct manner and the other did not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivo den Bieman Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Little illustrates the contrarianism of us Scots more than this issue. MK stole a league place from a club down on its arse having franchised them. Football franchising American-style is just wrong. But, the popularity of the re-formed Wimbledon and the perceived "right on" and "hipster / luvvie" nature of the club, invites some to back MK just to go against the grain and "get it right up" the perceived orthodoxy. I say this as someone who couldn't give a f**k about re-formed Wimbledon. Backing MK Dons just for the lulz is a bit rich for me though. Hopefully the franchise does drop a league- can't see them going bust though. Until Pete Winklemann gets bored they are here to stay. Robbie Neilson seems to have been a total disaster down there.

AFC Wimbledon fans just seem to be right up themselves bit like FC United ones. Thing is most folk hated the original Wimbledon in their Crazy Gang days as they were a shower of dirty b*****ds I know someone who works for a club down South and has met Winkleman, he said to me at the time they were a club you shouldn't like but the people there were very nice.

Ivo den Bieman Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 I'd be full of myself too if I'd been a part of re-forming a club and getting it playing at a good level. I don't get this "FC United / AFCW fans are right up themselves" chat. There are absolute wallopers in every fanbase. It's like criticisng successful trade unionists for getting themsevles a pay rise at work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just come across as rather patronising to me as if they seem think they are better than fans of other clubs just because they formed their own. For what its worth i'm not too bothered about MK Dons, AFC Wimbledon or FC United. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
