Chris Kamara of all people wrote up a hugely positive article in The Sun on AFC Wimbledon yesterday:
Wimbledon are a progressive club with tons of ambition, money and fabulous spirit.
And no, before you ask, I have not been drinking.
The text then goes on to praise our achievements, and in particular, our great goalscoring record — although saying we’re a staggering 55 points clear of nearest challengers Wallingford
isn’t entirely accurate, though it’s rare that reporting errs in our favour. (It’s actually 18 points and my guess that he over-excitedly read the goal difference column on the league table instead.)
After a little more nostalgic reminiscing about the good old days, he goes on to give the Franchise one last good kicking:
So the fairytale is no more. AFC Wimbledon need to climb three more rungs up the ladder to get into the Football League and begin another.
Don’t be surprised if they pass their namesakes sliding in the opposite direction.
What makes the article all the more interesting is that I believe that his son Malvin Kamara plays for the Milton Keynes-based team. Sounds like another exit on the cards this summer then.
