Wimbledon fc a UK football team moved 60 miles from Wimbledon itself to a place called Milton Keynes and changed their name to The Milton Keynes Dons!
The real Wimbledon fans didn't take it lying down they started a new club, they called it AFC Wimbledon and started again from the lowest league.
Eventually they managed to get the club into the football league with successive promotions. They then took the Milton Keynes club to court and won back their clubs history.
Football fans are fiercely loyal, I've been supporting my club since the age of 5 and I could never handle it being franchised off. As for rivalry, when we play our local rivals all the away fans have to go on official coaches and be escorted by the police. You can literally feel the hate inside the stadium. After the game they keep us locked in the stadium for over an hour while they disperse the home fans.

Basketball nightmare was the only sports game I ever bought and it was the cover that sold it to me.
