    A colleague of mine likened the rivalry between the Dons and MK Dons as all-out war. I don't disagree.

    So the fans smashed the toilets, as you do, because no one ever needs to shit at a football game. heh

    Yeah right lol. Don't get me wrong I don't condone it, but there again I'm not a Dons fan, to say that having their team moved 80 miles or so pissed off Wimbledon fans is a BIG understatement, I can understand why too.

    I was just making light of the situation.

    I'm a dons fan and Akinfenwa and Taylor.

    I love a good underdog story.

    I love Brentford too.

    Good man, I am a Chelsea fan (not a Johnny come lately though), I went to my first game at Stamford Bridge in 1979! I was obviously very young though! Wimbledon are just down the road really, Brentford are fellow West London boys.

    I'm a California man. So... I told my honey that a bucket list item is to visit england and watch EPL matches. Most my matches are MLS or Liga MX due to time zone issues. Though, one of our local broadcast stations play EPL games on Saturday mornings (usually before I'm awake).

    I'd also love to go to the smaller stadiums and watch some league 2 and some national league action. I'm a bit obsessed with the Concord Rangers too. But they're way down in National League South

    The last time I watched Chelsea game was during the 2012 MLS All-Star match where they played us.

    And last summer Sunderland came and played a friendly with my city's team. They played a very clean game.

    I am impressed by anybody (particularly foreign people from so far away) that has in interest in the 'sharp end' of football, I sometimes go to watch a club called Maidstone United who went bust in about 92, reformed and started again with no stadium at the bottom of the football pyramid, they were never a Premier League club but were in division 4 (now league 2) when they went bust. Me and a friend watched them play in what was little more than a 'village league' (Kent league div 4 I think), which was effectively games in the local park against village teams! Now 24 years and 9 promotions later they have made it back to the Conference (just one division lower than when they went bust), they have a small brand new stadium and get crowds of around 3 to 3 and a half thousand, its been quite a journey, keep your eyes out for them, don't forget to keep supporting your local team too! (as a Californian is it LA Galaxy?)

    Does that mean you don't get NBC Sports Network? When NBC (broadcast) has the EPL, it's at 9:30 A.M. your time, which is in the morning but not extremely early.

    I like Manchester United. As for liking lower level clubs, I like the name Kidderminster, but they got relegated to National League North or National League South.
