    Always nice to see TFC from a different perspective.

    P.S: Lee Scriven is the Commercial and Publishing Manager at MK Dons ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MK_Dons )

    That was definitely humerous to say the least...He loved the true north end...."its like they got a personal balconly over here to watch the match"

    He had Flush picked out for like 10-12s around the 10' mark.

    up & comer? good support? you must be thinking of another team. For those who didn't know, Wimbledon used to share Selhurst Park with Palace, but couldn't get anyone to their games, so the changed to MK Dons and moved to Milton-Keynes. Basically they're a big joke...

    They won League Two, have a new stadium, have had their manager pinched by a Premier League team - I think it’s fair to say they’re on their way up.

    You’re right that the "franchise" aspect of their existence is still highly controversial. In 2007 they delivered the Wimbledon FA Cup back to the London borough of Merton in an attempt to put their checkered past behind them.

    I love that he rides the Go train into the game.

    The east-bound liner is realer though.

    I saw the back of my head there going through the GO Train tunnel with my several flags in hand... got about 8 seconds of airtime :P

    I Remember this now!!!

    I remember few weeks ago, as we were going into the tunnel there he was with the camera at the entrance to the north side of Exhibition, and he was filming the people going into the tunnel...

    also see Britchat in it in the stands there... but he's wearing some really ugly hat on his head...

    Part time supporter!!! He left before the game ended!!!

    When I went to school there as a kid in the '70s it was more a municipal region than a city. Lots of villages but only one major centre, can't remember what it was, might have been Milton Keynes proper as I think we were still in Bucks County.

    Long time ago, wow.

    From Morgan Campbell's blog..

    FROM MORGAN CAMPBELL'S STAR BLOG:

    ...the Star's TFC coverage recently got a little pub in England.
    This is the soccer non-purist in me speaking, but I'd never heard of the MK Dons until early June. That's when Lee Scriven, the journalist who puts out their game-day program, emailed me, explaining that he'd be in town filming the latest installment in his online soccer travelogue. For some reason, folks over here told him I know my stuff, so he wanted to know if I'd take a few minutes to give his viewers the straight goods on TFC and MLS.
    So I talked and he filmed.
    I returned to work and he edited.
    I forgot about it and he remembered.
    And yesterday he sent me the link:

    What a great piece! This should be required viewing!

    I say we should adopted the MK Dons as our sister club!
