The rebirth of AFC Wimbledon didn’t just inspire a community — it sparked a global movement. What started as a bold act of fan-led resistance in South London quickly resonated around the world. From North America to New Zealand, Sweden to South Africa, the club’s journey from extinction to reformation has captured the hearts and imaginations of football lovers across every continent.


These are the Worldwide Wombles — supporters who may live thousands of miles from Plough Lane but carry its spirit wherever they go. Whether they’re tuning into live streams in the early hours, gathering for matchday watch parties in local pubs, proudly donning the badge at fan festivals, or simply passing the story down to the next generation, they are a living part of the club’s fabric.


They’re not just supporters. They’re family. From WhatsApp chats and Facebook groups to official supporter hubs and international meetups, the Worldwide Wombles form a unique and passionate network that keeps the story alive in every corner of the world. They are proof that The Greatest Story in Football isn’t limited by geography — it’s fuelled by belief, loyalty, and a shared identity that transcends borders.


Wherever you are in the world, if you carry the Wimbledon spirit, you’re already one of us.
