Football

I went to the football yesterday – AFC Wimbledon vs Frimley Green (AFC Wimbledon won). It’s a fascinating place for the club is, more-or-less, run by the fans for the fans. There is a real family and community atmosphere around the place and everybody (manager, squad and fans) seem to end up in the bar afterwards. It is also very far removed from the world of large corporate football clubs and demonstrates that if clubs were about communities then those communities put a lot back – which I guess is why the fans founded the club in the first place.

On this day…
