Podcast: The Story of AFC Wimbledon’s Return to Plough Lane

I am joined by Gary Jordan, whose new book Show Me The Way To Plough Lane chronicles the extraordinary story of AFC Wimbledon. We look at the original Wimbledon FC, discuss the nomadic years of the club leading up to the infamous move to Milton Keynes, before exploring the formation of AFC Wimbledon, its subsequent rise and return to Plough Lane.

Disclosure: Gary and I share the same publisher, Pitch, who released my first book, Origin Stories, last year.
