Thought they moved to Milton Keynes. Or some other such hell on earth. Or was that some other team?

New team entirely. Started at the bottom and worked their way back into the league in about 10 seasons.

That was the original Wimbledon FC, who relocated to Milton Keynes. This is a new club who have come up through the non-league pyramid.

Well good on them. Do they play at the original Wimbledon's Ground or was it demolished for a shopping centre and a block of flats?

Kingsmeadow is the name I think. They played Worcester City two or three years back and just about doubled the gate courtesy of their away fans.
