I used to work in Wimbledon until earlier this year and knew alot of AFC Wimbledon supporters.
They all said that AFC Wimbledon will never be able to make significant progress if they ever became a league club again. The problem they say is that the crazy gangs demise began when they were refused planning permission by the local authority for their stadium. This led to the move to Selhurst Park and then the exploitation that followed and eventually becoming MK Dons. It was inevitable that the crazy gang would end up outside the Wimbledon area and nothing has changed for AFC Wimbledon. Their ground will be severly restrictive in their climb up the leagues (should it happen) and apparently there is still no chance of AFC having a local ground that complies with the league requirements.
