- The rivalry between AFC Wimbledon and Milton Keynes Dons arose from the formation of both clubs due to the relocation of Wimbledon F.C. to Milton Keynes. For many years the two clubs played at different levels of English football, with the first competitive fixture between them taking place on 2 December 2012 - a second round FA Cup tie in which the two clubs were drawn against one another. Following AFC Wimbledon's promotion to the Football League, and subsequent promotion to League One in 2016, fixtures between the two clubs have taken place regularly. The rivalry was named as one of "5 of the fiercest rivalries in the Football League" and one of the "8 biggest derbies in the EFL" by commentators. A 2019 study ranked the rivalry 22nd out of the top 30 derbies in all of English football. The fixture has been labelled "one of football's biggest grudge games". (en)

- "Some months ago I went to the directors of the Dons Trust, the parent board of the club. I said, 'Some day we will be drawn away to Milton Keynes. What do you want to do?' (en)
- After a long discussion by the owners, they decided they would not accept hospitality on the day of the game. They instructed the football club board not to go too. The fans are deciding they don't want us to go into the boardroom. Therefore, there will be no hand to shake." (en)
