The occasion for our fans was good enough in the first place from where weve come from. Adebayo Akinfenwa sealed Wimbledons promotion to League 1 with a penalty in stoppage time But the boys went out and I had a feeling today we had too much experience, so much know-how and I had a feeling that these boys were going to deliver. In that second half I think there was only one team going to win that. We were outstanding.Of course [Im proud]. Its emotional. To win a game at Wembley and get promotion is wonderful but they (the fans) deserve it.They had their club taken away from them 14 years ago - now look at them.The introduction of Akinfenwa from the bench ultimately proved the decisive moment in a tense encounter, as the Dons broke the deadlock moments later through Lyle Taylor.He needs a cuddle, he needs a bit of love but he gets it from us, said Ardley about the much-travelled Taylor.

Credit to Wimbledon, but we are disappointed not to have won.It wasnt an exciting game and we probably played into Wimbledons hands a bit, we didnt trouble their goalkeeper enough.Its a huge disappointment to come here and not show people what we can do.
