Wimbledon F.C.

Wimbledon F.C. was a professional football club based in London, founded in 1889. Known as "The Dons," the team played in various leagues and gained fame for their passionate style and humble roots. In 2002, the club relocated to Milton Keynes, becoming Milton Keynes Dons amid controversy. This move led to the dissolution of the original Wimbledon F.C. name and identity, which was then adopted by a new club formed by supporters, called AFC Wimbledon. Wimbledon F.C. is remembered for its strong community connection, its remarkable rise through the leagues, and its role in English football history.
