Foundation

The club was founded by the supporters of Wimbledon F.C. in May 2002, when the Football Association agreed to allow the owners of their club to relocate over 70 miles north to the new town of Milton Keynes in Buckinghamshire. Although Wimbledon F.C. was unable to physically move for more than a year, their traditional local support dried up almost immediately in a ground-swell of popular protest against the move.

Wimbledon F.C. crest Wimbledon F.C. was the name of a now defunct football club that played in south London. ...

Soon after moving, Wimbledon FC Ltd went into administration and the business was bought out by Pete Winkelman who, against the conditions of the club's move, cut all ties with the area of Wimbledon, launching a new club Milton Keynes Dons in 2004, with a new badge, name and colours, leaving AFC Wimbledon as the sole bearer of the "Wimbledon" name. By then, all organized supporters' groups that had followed the old club had long since pledged allegiance to AFC Wimbledon. Pete Canute Winkelman is a British popular music entrepreneur. ... Milton Keynes Dons F.C. is a football club in Milton Keynes, England. ...

In order to assemble a competitive team at such short notice, AFC Wimbledon held player trials over three days on Wimbledon Common in June 2002, open to any unattached player who felt he was good enough to try out for the team. From these trials, the club's squad for its inaugural season was chosen. Wimbledon and Putney Commons consist of a large open space south west of London comprising 1140 acres (4. ...

The new team attracted an astonishingly large crowd, for a non league match, of 4,657 fans for its first ever game, a pre-season friendly against Sutton United on 10th July 2002. Sutton United FC is a non-league English football team playing in Conference South (2005/06). ...

Supporters of other clubs around the country initially boycotted matches against Milton Keynes Dons (mockingly referred to by many as "Franchise FC" ^[3]) in solidarity with Wimbledon's supporters, as a protest against the principle of relocation and the instant recognition of the new club in Milton Keynes by The Football League, which is perceived as completely alien to the traditions of the game in England.

Ownership and Legal Status

AFC Wimbledon PLC was placed under the ownership of the Dons Trust, a supporters' group which has pledged to retain at least 75% control of that ownership, though in 2003 they sold a minority interest in a share issue, in order to finance the purchase of Kingsmeadow Stadium, the ground they shared with Kingstonian FC.

Ground purchase and the 'Khosla' debt

Upon its foundation in 2002, AFC Wimbledon entered into a ground-sharing arrangement with Kingstonian FC to play their home fixtures at Kingsmeadow, in neighbouring Kingston-upon-Thames. Kingstonian Football Club are an English, semi-professional football club that will play the 2006-07 season in the Isthmian League First Division South. ... The Fans Stadium, Kingsmeadow is a football stadium in Kingston upon Thames, London. ... Kingston upon Thames is the principal settlement of the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames. ...

Kingsmeadow had been the home of Kingstonian FC since the club moved to the ground in 1989 as part of a property deal to develop its previous Richmond Road ground however the club had hit financial difficulties following relegation from the Conference and administrators had sold the club including the lease to the stadium to business men, Anup and Rajesh Khosla. The Khoslas subsequently transferred ownership of the stadium away from the club and into subsiduary companies privately owned by the Khosla family in a move seen as an attempt at asset-stripping.

It was felt that securing ownership of Kingsmeadow would safeguard the ground for the future of both clubs so in March 2003, the Dons Trust members voted to purchase part of the lease for the Kingsmeadow and in June 2003 the contract for buying the lease to the stadium was agreed with Rajesh Khosla, meaning that £3 million needed to be raised. 2003 (MMIII) was a common year starting on Wednesday of the Gregorian calendar. ... The Fans Stadium, Kingsmeadow is a football stadium in Kingston upon Thames, London. ... 2003 (MMIII) was a common year starting on Wednesday of the Gregorian calendar. ...

Various innovative methods of fundraising, primarily a share issue to supporters which quickly realised £1.2m, and the Dons Trust Bond, meant that the debt to Mr Khosla was steadily reduced. On 30th March 2006, a Dons Trust meeting was held at which the majority vote was in favour of accepting a commercial loan from Barclays Bank in order to clear the outstanding debt to Mr Khosla, which was at a much higher rate of interest. Barclays Bank headquarters One Churchill Place, Canary Wharf Barclays plc (LSE: BARC, NYSE: BCS, TYO: 8642 ) is the fourth largest bank in the United Kingdom. ...

The club continue to work on new ways of fundraising to clear the debt once and for all. Meanwhile, the future of the ground is secured as a home ground both for AFC Wimbledon and, equally importantly, for Kingstonian FC who lease the ground at a nominal rate, paid for in part by the proceeds of an annual pre-season friendly between the two clubs. The long term ambition for AFC Wimbledon however remains to secure a ground in Merton. Soon after the club's purchase of Kingsmeadow, then Finance Director and current Chairman, Erik Samuelson was reported as saying: The London Borough of Merton is a London borough in south west London. ...

	It is difficult to find space for a ground in Wimbledon, but although Kingsmeadow is now home it doesn’t mean we will be here all our lives. But, for now, we are very happy at Kingsmeadow.

On-the-pitch performance

2002-03

In 2002-03, their first competitive season in the Combined Counties League (CCL), AFC Wimbledon started slowly but won their last 11 league games to finish the season in third place, narrowly missing promotion to the Ryman Isthmian League.

2003-04

In 2003-04 they won their first 21 league games before a draw on 10 January 2004, giving them 32 consecutive wins in league games over two seasons.

The Dons went on to complete an unbeaten regular season (42 wins, 4 draws, with a goal difference of +148), easily earning promotion to the Ryman Isthmian League First Division.

They won 29 games, drew ten, and lost three, and led the division all season to earn promotion to the Isthmian League Premier Division. Also, the Dons - in their first appearance in the FA Cup since the creation of AFC Wimbledon - reached the Third Qualifying Round, bowing out to Thurrock from Conference South (two divisions above). A 1-0 home win over Metropolitan Police on April 9, 2005 guaranteed the First Division title. They won the Surrey Senior Cup final 2-1 over league runners-up Walton & Hersham on May 3, having defeated teams from higher leagues in earlier rounds, including a reserve side from Premiership club Crystal Palace in the quarterfinals.

One Wimbledon player received a unique honour in the 2004-05 season. After scoring all three goals in the Dons' defeat of Dunstable Town in the Second Qualifying Round of the FA Cup, Rob Ursell was shortlisted by the FA for The FA Cup Player of the Round Award. In an online fans' poll on the FA's official website, Ursell won that award in a landslide. Ursell and the season's other 10 winners, including Premiership stars Shay Given and Ruud van Nistelrooy, were introduced at halftime of the FA Cup final at Millennium Stadium in Cardiff. Later in the season, Ursell also received a callup to the England national futsal team.

Withdean 2000, 2002/2003 CCL champions, delivered AFC Wimbledon's last league defeat (on Saturday 22 February 2003) before the undefeated sequence finally ended at Cray Wanderers F.C. with a 2-0 defeat on December 4, 2004.

2005-06

The 2005-2006 season proved far more competitive than previous seasons, and after winning their first few games the Dons found themselves struggling to remain in the playoff places as injuries to key players (including Ursell) kept them below full strength. However, after fluctuating form they eventually confirmed their place in the playoffs with a 1-0 win against Hendon F.C. on April 22. However the play-offs proved a disappointment as defeat at Fisher Athletic F.C. meant there was to be no promotion this year.

Youth and Women's Football

The club places great emphasis on its role as a social focus for the local community, and part of this role is to offer the chance to play football to all.

The Dons' success in 2004-05 was not limited to their senior side; many of their youth sides also had strong seasons. Both of their under-13 and under-11 sides won league championships (in different leagues); one under-13 side and both under-11 sides added their league cup for a double. One of their two under-14 sides also won a league-cup double. The Dons placed two under-15 sides in the top two positions in their league, and also saw one under-11 side lift a county cup. Finally, one of their two under-12 sides, plus their only under-8 side, won league cups. Overall there are 19 male youth sides representing AFC Wimbledon from under 8's to under 19's, with some of the under 19's managing to play some games in the reserves, and even in the first team.

As well as the various youth teams, AFC Wimbledon also have a women's team who play in the FA Nationwide Women's Premier League Southern Division, the second highest tier of national Women's football. The women's team was formerly affiliated with Wimbledon F.C., but switched affiliation to AFC Wimbledon in the 2003 close season.

Two new junior girls sides (at under 12's and under 14's age groups) have been set up for the 2005-2006 season.

This means that there are now a total of 25 teams representing AFC Wimbledon, in a mixture of men's, women's, boys' and girls' football.

Why "AFC"?

In naming the club, the founders sought a name as close to "Wimbledon FC" as possible, but their first choice, "FC Wimbledon", was rejected by the London F.A. as being too similar for legal reasons. They then gained approval for "AFC Wimbledon", the initials A.F.C. being common in many official club names and standing for "Association Football Club".

Interestingly, in January 2005 Marc Jones - one of the founders of the club - suggested that in actual fact the initials 'AFC' meant nothing in particular... "we thought it sounded 'non-league' but it never really stood for anything." That said, an alternate meaning "A Fan's Club" has been used by some (and was first introduced by advertising agency TBWA when working on the sale of shares during the purchase of the stadium) to memorialize the intent of the Wimbledon supporters who formed the club.

In the summer of 2005, the club's founders offered their support and advice to the Manchester United fans proposal of setting up a club, in a similar manner to the Wimbledon fans, following Malcolm Glazer's purchase of the club.

Honours

Since the move of Wimbledon FC to Milton Keynes and the clubs subsequent relaunch as Milton Keynes Dons FC, there has been much debate over the home of the honours won by Wimbledon FC. Supporters of AFC Wimbledon have argued that the honours and trophies won by Wimbledon FC rightfully belong to the community of Wimbledon and should be returned to the local area.

Currently trophies won by Wimbledon FC legally belong to MK Dons FC, however after much discussion, lead particularly by the clubs' Supporters Association and involving the Football Supporters Federation (FSF), the club has agreed to return them to the people of Wimbledon. The trophies will be donated to the London Borough of Merton to be put on public display. The Football Supporters Federation is an organisation representing football fans in England and Wales. ... The London Borough of Merton is a London borough in south west London. ...

AFC Wimbledon maintain that the honours of Wimbledon FC belong to AFC Wimbledon, as illustrated by the statement on the club's official website:

	The supporters of AFC Wimbledon believe that our club is a continuation of the spirit which formed Wimbledon Old Centrals in 1889 and kept Wimbledon Football Club alive until May 2002. We consider that a football club is not simply the legal entity which controls it, but that it is the community formed by the fans and players working towards a common goal. We therefore reproduce the honours won by what we believe was, and will always be, 'our' club, in our community.
