I understand your point of view for ANY other club

I always felt like that. Started travelling regularly away with The Dons and put money in collection buckets up and down the country at away games. It was pretty much standard back then to be greeted at the game with someone rattling a collection bucket. I vividly remember putting at least a fiver in buckets at three particular clubs. You can guess who those clubs were: Bournemouth, Brentford and Brighton :? :lol:

It took me several years to ask the question “would you put money in a bucket if you were at ours?” to those tin can rattlers. We all know the answer, don’t we?

And that to me is a fundamental part of this clubs DNA. Most wouldn’t p**s on us if we were on fire, so why give a monkeys about their fortunes?

Spot on camden, many fans actively wish for it to happen to us. Whilst i dont want afc to go bust i dk want them to suffer a slow torturous demise and enjoy seeing them meltdown. If they didnt exist yhe world would be a little less fun as they are the gift that keeps on giving.

It's a part of the experience of supporting the club and has been for 20 years

I've learned to use it as a positive in supporting Dons.....it's a special bunker mentality to have 90 other clubs hate you

My kids are gradually learning it..... Max Dean's Tweet helped

I sometimes wonder if in another 20 years that will have fizzled away ....or are we going to be in a situation where my little girl is a 90 year old Dons supporter in the Year 2100 still dealing with the hate!

After the AFC home game he tweeted "No one likes us we don’t care. The dons"

I get a great deal of 'joy' from watching their difficulties.
I suppose (perhaps like some of their saner and younger supporters who have have no idea or real interest in 'the issue') I ought to move on but I'm afraid I can't. I feel towards them the same way as I do to Boris or Trump. Why? Because they lie lie lie and lie again poisoning the whole debate. I can't accept that.
F- 'em: I hope they suffer financially.

FFS if they start disappearing round the s-bend just enjoy it. They'd be very pleased if it was the other way around.
