The Doctor Posted 29 July 2011 Posted 29 July 2011 shame, wanted AFC to win. Why are they doing a Preliminary round this season, don't remember that happening before.
purpleronnie Posted 29 July 2011 Posted 29 July 2011 I think its something to do with brum being in the europa league.
AyewJoking Posted 29 July 2011 Posted 29 July 2011 Shame Wimbledon didnt make it to their former home (sort of)
Guest Bilo Posted 29 July 2011 Posted 29 July 2011 Shame Wimbledon didnt make it to their former home (sort of) I thought that when the draw was made, but did a quick bit of reading on Wimbledon fans' views and they weren't looking forward to going back. They hated the place and associated it with their decline and eventual move of the former club. They don't particularly want to meet MK Dons either on that subject in any competition. Shame with the way they're rising that it's inevitably going to happen one day.
Fox92 Posted 30 July 2011 Posted 30 July 2011 I would have liked to see Crystal Palace v Wimbledone as well.
