No idea if they play there anymore but I don't think their 'base', the Veltins Arena, is based there. But if you look at their badge you'll notice it's a combined S/G for the area and the city.

Would MK Dons count?I suppose it does have MK in the name but technically are the team still classed as being from Wimbledon?
