Fans took to reply on the club’s tweet stating Wally Downes has parted company with AFC Wimbledon…
Now do a deal with @Pompey to take Jackett off our hands.

May well be what the parties agreed but forgets the need to keep the fans better informed. It’s another step at increasing the differences between the fans & club
Contract issues suggest not quite the happy ship. GH now in very difficult position. Wally should have stayed IMO

Forever grateful for last season, it’s a shame these were the circumstances but it was time to go really.

Thank You for all you have done Wally. Can’t thank you enough for what you done last season keeping us up last season. Wish you the best ??

Sadly the right decision. Keeping us up was a fantastic achievement but no wins in 11 needed addressing and the foolish betting breach hastened his demise. Glynn Hodges deserves the role and the club should get that sorted quickly.

@jimboandandrea: As a shareholder, fair to say I’m Very unhappy with how this has been handled. It seems that our current CEO is on a different path to the founders of our club. A Very disturbing decision by him and the board and in my opinion a dreadful one.
@ewom: Disappointed to see him go. Thanks Wally for last season. Without you we’d be playing in league 2 right now
@jertzeedon: Sacked for the wrong reasons. @AFCWimbledon board and DTB board should take a good look at themselves in the mirror and honestly ask why they got rid of him. #copout
@patriotic_ally: I like the wording of the statement. Right to thank Wally. Feel sad about for him and about the whole situation but for the best I think. But why hasn’t Hodges been announced as his permanent replacement?
@Afc_SiPinnock: Ashamed to be a Wimbledon fan tonite, Joke of a board decision, He was never wanted by some , even after performing a miracle given a paupers purse in the transfer market as a thanks. Well done (some of the ) board you keep stroking your echoes.
@leewillett88: Wally had one bad run of form, ONE, and we fired him. Truly shocked. Thought we were Wimbledon. When things get tough, we stick together.
@leewillett88: When do we, as fans & owners, get to know the full story, please? Wally got us out of trouble last season, but has been fired with only a very short statement to fans hinting that the difficult start to this season was a factor. Has everyone forgotten the end of last season?
@jonny_977: Good decision thanks for last season wally
