248 League games played at Selhurst Park by Wimbledon

The club moved here from Plough Lane in 1991 to groundshare with Crystal Palace. In 2002 the club obtained permission from the FA to relocate to Milton Keynes where it was planned to build a new stadium at North Denbigh. In the interim it arranged to play fixtures at the National Hockey Stadium but this was turned down by the Football League as unsuitable and planning permission was sought to instal temporary stands at the Milton Keynes Bowl. Problems were subsequently encountered and the club was finally given permission to use the National Hockey Stadium as a temporary venue in January 2003. It was proposed to move in at the start of the 2003/4 season but was delayed until September 27th following the club’s slide into receivership.
*NB. Previous lowest attendances include 3,039 v. Everton on January 26th, 1993, the record lowest gate for a Premiership fixture and 3,121 v. Sheffield Wednesday on October 2nd, 1991, a post WWII record lowest gate for a top flight fixture. Following the club’s decision to relocate to Milton Keynes most of the fans boycotted the club and set up an alternative (AFC Wimbledon) resulting in poor attendances averaging only 2,786, and culminating in a gate of just 849 v Rotherham United in 2002; a record for the second tier.
