AFC Wimbledon fans and players celebrating promotion to the Conference South after beating Staines Town 2–1 in the Isthmian League Premier Division Play-off Final at the end of the 2007–08 season.

AFC Wimbledon is an English professional association football club, currently based in Kingston upon Thames, Greater London. The club was formed on 30 May 2002 by supporters of Wimbledon, led by Kris Stewart, Marc Jones and Trevor Williams who strongly opposed the FA's decision to allow the relocation of Wimbledon F.C. to Milton Keynes, subsequently rebranded as MK Dons.[1]

AFC Wimbledon was accepted into the Premier Division of the Combined Counties League for the 2002–03 season.[2] AFC Wimbledon's average home attendance at league fixtures for their first season exceeded 3,000 – higher than the average attendance in the same season of Wimbledon F.C., who were still playing in the First Division (now the Football League Championship).[3] AFC Wimbledon has also set a new record for the longest run of unbeaten league games at any level of senior football in the United Kingdom.[4] The team remained unbeaten for 78 league matches between 22 February 2003 (a 2–0 defeat at home to Withdean 2000) and 4 December 2004 (a 2–0 defeat at Cray Wanderers).[5]

The club went on to achieve the feat of securing five promotions in nine seasons, ensuring that they would be the first club to be formed in the 21st century to make it into the Football League, making them the youngest of the 92 Football League clubs by some distance.[6]

Notes

A. ^ AFC Wimbledon were defeated 2–1 by Fisher Athletic in the Isthmian League Premier Division play-off semi-final on 2 May 2006, preventing the club from achieving three back-to-back promotions.[68]
B. ^ AFC Wimbledon were deducted 3-points and fined £400 (reduced from an 18-point deduction on appeal[69]) for the fielding of Jermaine Darlington who, it transpired, had not been registered correctly by the club as he required 'international clearance' in order to be transferred from the Football Association of Wales to the Football Association of England and had therefore played in three matches whilst still ineligible.[70] The 'Darlington affair' also resulted in expulsion from the Surrey Senior Cup and the FA Trophy that season.[71]
C. ^ AFC Wimbledon were defeated 1–0 by Bromley in the Isthmian League Premier Division play-off semi-final on 1 May 2007.[72]
D. ^ AFC Wimbledon beat Staines Town 2–1 in the Isthmian League Premier Division play-off final on 3 May 2008.[73]
E. ^ AFC Wimbledon beat Luton Town 4–3 in a penalty shoot-out after the match had ended 0–0 in extra time in the 2011 Conference National play-off Final on 21 May 2011.[74]
