RookTakesPawn Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 (edited) I've been writing about my save now that I'm ten seasons in and really enjoying my progress. I felt like I was writing a bit for me so I could remember the good times I've had but I thought I'd share my journey with Kingstonian, who I hope to proclaim as the new "Kings" of London sometime soon. Why Kingstonian? The Kingstonian Football Club is a club without a home. Their previous grounds, the Kingsmeadow, built in 1989, had been sold to AFC Wimbledon for 2.4 million pounds in 2003 and then leased back to Kingstonian for a small fee. However, in 2016, AFC Wimbledon sold the stadium to Chelsea, who no longer wanted Kingstonian as tenants. It didn’t help that crowd sizes at Kingsmeadow had dropped below 250 on a few occasions. By the summer of 2017, Kingstonian was out. They now share grounds with the Corinthian-Casuals at King George’s Field in Tolworth, a ten minute’s drive away south from Kingston upon Thames. My goal is to save this club from dissolution and obscurity.
